Find out what your peers are saying about NinjaOne, Kaseya, TeamViewer and others in Remote Monitoring and Management (RMM)."Pricing is definitely my favorite part of it. It is also extremely easy to use."
"I have better access when I go to look for something regarding either a specific user or software. It is easier to locate. When I am troubleshooting with my clients on the phone, I am not fiddling around looking through a bunch of ticket notes trying to locate something. It makes me a lot more efficient."
"Atera has saved our organization money. We look at Atera as an extra employee that we only pay about $300 a month. This is incredible savings over having to hire somebody to do all the tasks that Atera performs for us."
"There are a lot fewer hardware replacements. Once people migrated from old style hard disks over to SSDs, you have things like hard disks filling up faster. So, I run a script to clear out all the waste, e.g., all the temporary files and downloads. A lot of our business runs through a custom web application that we built. This involves people downloading a lot of PDFs and Excel files, and not just having them sitting in folders. With Atera, I can just go through and clean the temporary files out."
"The most valuable features of this solution are automatic batch matching and unattended support access."
"Atera has helped me to provide more accurate solutions based on a given problem. For example, we base our solutions on event scenarios, like the alerts. We identify that there's a series of problems occurring in a particular area from the information provided by the alerts."
"I would say it's the number one tool for all ITMS."
"Atera saves money. A trip to the customer costs between $20 to $30. Then, you need to charge the customer $20 to $30 for the travel. However, if you are doing this work remotely, then you are not driving. This makes the process easier and saves money for you and the customer. For example, if it is just one machine, then the savings comes out to $50 to $60. If we are talking about a huge client, who has hundreds of machines and is changing their infrastructure, that is a lot of money."
"The patching is very efficient and we can rely on the alerts that we receive."
"The most valuable features of this solution are automation, inventory, and patch management."
"The most valuable feature of Kaseya VSA is the ability to control laptops remotely."
"The solution was scalable."
"The most valuable part of this solution is the security features that it offers."
"The product's support team is very quick to respond, especially because the tool's technical team operates in the same time zone where I am located."
"The remote management is quite good. Also, the patch management and service desk are great features of the solution."
"I like the remote control, audit, inventory, patch management, software management, and monitoring features."
"I also use Apple Zoho, which does not require you to download anything. You can get help from Zoho. Atera, on the other hand, requires you to download an applet."
"The billing module has a standard layout which is too limited for my needs."
"Having more freedom to perform identity access management would be great."
"The one thing that could do with improvement is the reporting. This is from someone who worked in an MSP, where I would want to run a report and be able to just present that to a client."
"The solution is scalable. However, in the past, we did have some issues."
"I would like to see more mobile device management. iPad is a big one. I know they've been working on some of that. For me, it would be amazing if I could do tablet devices and even expand it to POS systems or the like. I know that a lot goes into that but I've seen it is an area they're looking at."
"The chat solutions need improvement because we first need to connect to the customer. This needs to improve so that there is a particular feature that can provide support to customers even if they are not connected to a computer."
"Customization could be improved."
"The solution is hard to use at first until you understand how it works."
"If you compare with other products, Manage Engine has some features that we like but are not present in Kaseya."
"The user interface is somewhat outdated."
"The audit and KNM tools could improve."
"There is room for improvement in the remote control strengths."
"The product's user interface is an area with certain shortcomings where improvements are required."
"Kaseya VSA could be improved with more features to support the latest operating systems."
"The deployment process could be better."
