Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The most value we get from this solution is that everything is on a patch cycle.""The implementation is nice and easy.""We use monitors to keep track of our machines. We use a pretty good portion of information from Automate.""ConnectWise Automate's interface is pretty easy to use. It's pretty intuitive to get around and navigate it. It does what I need, which is usually connecting to the client and customers systems.""It's a very good IT tool for a company that provides IT services. It is very helpful for technicians to work with the tool to see all of the customers in one place and then manage all of the computers in one place.""It allows us to manage all client requests, jobs and invoicing.""The initial setup is easy and the deployment is quick.""The database is great. It's a nicely ordered database."

"It's stable and reliable.""Almost all the features are valuable to me, like the scalable feature and its highly interactive software.""One of the most valuable features has been that it's a remote tool. I think this is a particularly good tool, and it's user-friendly.""The fact that it's user-friendly and it has a chat option. These are my two favorite features.""I've left Splashtop running for seven or eight hours connected to a system. I've left TeamViewer running for seven or eight hours to a connection or two. I have a hard time working out on four computers at a time, but three is not impossible for me. So even if I've had three computers connected it has been fairly stable.""It's considered a trusted application.""We use the product to communicate.""It enhances collaboration among my board members during board meetings, whether annual, regular, or irregular."

Cons
"We would love to get feature updates and cumulative updates fixed. I know they aren't really supposed to be pushed with Patch Manager. We've got recommendations from ConnectWise to use the scripted feature update installs, scripted KB updates, etc. Having these in Patch Manager itself would be great.""There could be better linkages between ConnectWise Automate and Manage from a ticketing perspective. Automate and Manage each has its own ticketing system. We use the one in Manage, but it'd be nice if they were linked directly to the one in Automate.""Technical support was helpful.""This is a raw system. Of course, it has some flaws that could be improved. But, it's something that we will have to work with to get to the point where we need this, we request it and they do their best to make it happen.""The wait time for a support ticket to be addressed needs to be reduced. They take a couple of days to get back. It is a little frustrating when we have to wait for a couple of days. A lot of times, the issue is critical for us. If we're reaching out to their support team and submitting a ticket, it is because we need it handled quickly.""I have a problem with the reports available on the solution. I don't understand how to work with the reporting functionality. For example, when I want to give a report for a specific machine, ConnectWise doesn't seem to have this as an option. I'm not sure if I'm missing something, or if the reporting functionality is just poorly conceived.""The menu doesn't always load properly.""The project management needs improvement and there's a section of the product called configuration that also needs to be improved."

"The main issue with the solution is the stability problem arising from network issues.""I'm not sure if the security is ideal. They could work to improve it.""Licensing has always been a concern, as it can be costly when we need simultaneous access for multiple users.""VPN connection is an area with shortcomings that need improvement in the solution.""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.""The price for the license could be improved, as well as the setup could be easier.""The solution is a little expensive.""I don't like having so many updates."
