We performed a comparison between Datto Remote Monitoring and Management and TeamViewer Remote Management based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Remote Monitoring and Management (RMM) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Automation, in terms of the standard patches and standard updates, and remote support are valuable. When it does the standard Windows and patches, it works really well. This is something they focus on. Remote support is also something they focus on quite a bit, and it works really well. Being able to get to an agent or a client computer right away is very helpful."
"AEM support is great for Macs."
"We support nine different nonprofits, and the billing took the manager three or four days working on spreadsheets. When I finished automating everything with Datto, we cut everything down to a couple of hours. That's a substantial cost savings on the billing side."
"I also like how Datto integrates seamlessly with the Autotask ticketing system."
"It has a single pane of glass, and it integrates well with other software."
"The remote tool is nice. If a user needs assistance, I don't have to tell the user to do anything. I just ask the user if I can remote in, and 30 seconds later, I have remoted in. It has been really handy."
"The project management and task management features work well. It's a decent product in that regard."
"The alerting system helps us determine what are high level alerts, and what are alerts which can wait for a day or two. We catch RAID failures, hot servers, bad drives (or predicted failures on drives), etc."
"There are some great features."
"TeamViewer Remote Management is very easy and very good for remote work."
"It is a scalable solution...The initial setup of TeamViewer Remote Management was very simple."
"The most valuable feature is the remote management capabilities."
"Transferring files and viewing data work well with TeamViewer Remote Management."
"The product is very stable."
"It is user-friendly for opening my server or PC."
"I like the possibility of using this software across different operating systems and clouds, such as AWS or Azure Cloud, while being able to efficiently transfer files and run the data."
"Be prepared to spend a lot of time on conversions if you have a lot of clients."
"The actual setup and the automation of their product are horrific. When you buy it, there is nothing out of the box. You have to custom design it for everything you want it to do. You pay for implementation, but they don't really do a whole lot to help you get it going. I know it does a lot more than what ours is set up to do, which is frustrating. When I've demoed other systems, their setup is so much better. When you pay for their setup, there is so much more, whereas I just feel like we didn't get a very good setup."
"The only area where I see room for improvement is the ability to delay the application of patches for a set number of days."
"We would like to see a little more functionality when monitoring network devices, such as switches and routers."
"My most significant criticism is Datto is a complex product that takes a while to understand, but that could be said of almost any solution at the same level. It depends on where you're starting from. You have to rework all your workflows, and it's some heavy lifting if you want to get it right."
"They have a tab to provide information about the type of hardware the computers have. One thing they don't specify is what model of hard drive the computers have. Identification of storage models would be nice."
"Sometimes we have some downtime when Datto is doing updates. Maybe it's because of the cloud service they use. I'm not sure if they're going through AWS or Azure or what. That's happened, but the outages have been few and far between."
"The CRM capabilities are not very good. It's clunky and could work a lot better than it does. There are no marketing add-ins, for example."
"There should be an enterprise version of the solution."
"There could be stable connectivity for the product’s current technology."
"The main issue with the solution is the stability problem arising from network issues."
"Integration with other tools would be great."
"I would rate the stability a seven out of ten because every application gets bugs. So, there are some instances where it might be buggy and hanging."
"The price for the license could be improved, as well as the setup could be easier."
"One of the defects that I have noticed with TeamViewer Remote Management is that if I am on a certain version and the person to whom I am connected is not on the same version, then it does not connect at times until I update the solution."
"When a user is engaged in a chat on a system with a remote user present, copying the chat content isn't easy."
