Remote monitoring has streamlined endpoint management and consistently reduced ticket resolution time
The best features Atera offers include the per-technician pricing, which is honestly one of the biggest things. Unlimited endpoints for a flat monthly fee per tech is a model that makes sense for us, since we are not paying more every time we add a new endpoint. The AI Copilot feature has been a nice addition that helps our techs summarize tickets and suggest fixes faster, which has cut our resolution times noticeably. The AI Copilot feature has specifically helped my team because the automation handles a lot of the routine work, such as patch deployments, maintenance tasks, and monitoring alerts. Atera has positively impacted my organization by transforming how our team operates day-to-day, and the pricing model is hard to beat. The outcomes or metrics showing how Atera has made a positive impact include the 30% reduction in ticket resolution time I mentioned earlier.

Good statistical reporting, provides alerts via email, helpful support
The reporting capabilities are good. We have to manually configure reports based on what data we require. For example, it can show the downtime for uptime for a device. Once we configure the profile for each report, we can download it. We use Infraon to automatically trigger processes to help resolve issues when they are detected. For example, it will automatically raise a ticket and send an email to our ISP when it detects that a link is down. When a process is triggered automatically, we run one of the pre-configured scripts. We have not created any of the scripts ourselves but rather, only use the ones that are provided. These scripts are important because we use them for generating reports and emailing alerts, which are also used for auditing purposes. For example, our IT department has been improved because Infraon automatically creates reports that show our site uptime and downtime. We can see which site has more bandwidth utilization, link utilization, and link problems. It will show us what other devices are in the environment, which ones we need to replace, and how many sessions are being created. This solution assists us with our billing because we have many critical locations, and these need to have one hundred percent uptime, every month of the year. We generate reports monthly, quarterly, and yearly, which we then submit to management to cite the total uptime. Based on this, the billing is done. With respect to the learning curve, this tool is easy to learn because there is a lot of training material included. I suggest that the entire team learn to use it, rather than just one person, because it will make the tool more effective for the organization.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Just because it is low cost doesn't mean it is low quality."
"It is reliable, and when it is working, it works without issues."
"The most valuable features of this solution are automatic batch matching and unattended support access."
"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."
"We value the alerts that come with the product which allow me to reach out to my clients. Overall, Atera generates additional revenue streams for work done on their machines."
"Atera saves me money on a monthly basis because my cost is a fixed price per month per technician, and it doesn't matter how many computers I manage."
"Measuring the integration is very helpful when using Atera Assist Test. It takes the solution to the next level by automating activities. It doesn't just provide the solution but also allows running scripts to fix issues before a technician has to work on them."
"All corporations that have an IT department should look into and utilize this solution."
"Being an engineering product, the customization is easy for us compared to SolarWinds and ManageEngine."
"Infraon IMS allows us to do several things from a single window, which is important to us."
"Once we installed this central system, our site engineers who provide the data started believing in the data's accuracy."
"The most valuable feature is alerting. We get email alerts when a link is down that tell us which device is having a problem."
"Their discovery is very quick and they have a CSV file upload mechanism that allows you to onboard five thousand devices a day."
"If you are looking for the best product with the best price, Infraon is the best product."
"We use the solution to automatically trigger processes to help us resolve issues. The whole IT process has been automated, such as trying to map all the users and the escalation process. So, if any issue happens, we get an SMS and WhatsApp of the report. If there is a critical issue this has to be sorted out, like the entire data center being down, then there is an alarm."
"The backup, restore, and comparison features are all good."
 

Cons

"I would like to see more mobile device management. iPad is a big one."
"Reporting is probably the main frustration."
"There is definitely room for improvement with its automation capabilities."
"It will be interesting if Atera can integrate all kinds of products."
"The solution is scalable. However, in the past, we did have some issues."
"Atera could be improved by adding more granular control over technician roles. We need more specific controls on what technicians can access, like limiting their ability to view certain sections or access devices and share files. This feature request has already been made. The IP asset management capabilities need improvement to better manage assets beyond just devices."
"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 one thing that could do with improvement is the reporting."
"There might be some features in other products that are currently not there in Everest IMS and can be included. I have not yet compared it with any other product."
"This solution is available in SaaS. The reason why we have not gone to SaaS is they do not have a country-specific separation of assets. There are GDPR and other requirements that might require country-specific sensitive information to be filtered as well as other things that need to be taken care of. Normally, if we need to do any compliance, like ISO27000 compliance, they don't have such a report within their system. This kind of report is missing from their SaaS. That is one of the reasons that we have gone to the on-prem version, where I am assured that my data is secure."
"Email support is a bit slow. Once you drop an email, it takes time."
"This solution is available in SaaS. The reason why we have not gone to SaaS is they do not have a country-specific separation of assets."
"I would like to see an integrated view of Infraon IMS and Infraon Desk. It would be very helpful if that were integrated into the solution."
"The graphical view of the topology does not show us all of the connectivity in our network, which is something that could be improved."
"We have enquired if there are any possibilities of monitoring non-IPBS devices."
"The GUI is in need of improvement. It is not drag-and-drop or easy to use."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"One of the biggest issues I face is the need to pay per technician. I've dealt with other platforms that you need to have 250-500 devices. Even though the cost declines as the number of devices a person has increases, they still require you to pay for 250 or 500, respectively. With Atera, the number doesn't matter as you always pay the same amount. I approximate that Atera saves me $100 per week."
"Atera happened to have the best pricing model."
"The price is reasonable for what we require."
"Atera's pricing stays fixed and predictable, enabling us to add more customers and unlimited monitored devices. We still have a number of clients who fit a break/fix IT model. This is something where clients are complaining more about having to pay extra month-by-month for technology services. With Atera's model, we don't have to be going out and asking for more from clients each month. Right now, with where we are at in terms of scale, this is very important to us."
"With Atera, the more you add, the cheaper the cost of the additional endpoints will be."
"The solution cost approximately $200 Canadian per month."
"In terms of cost, it's not very expensive. I’d rate it around three or four out of ten, considering its value for money."
"Our company is a startup. The initial reason I looked into Atera was the fact that you pay by the technician, not per-device. That means you are able to jump right in with a service without having a large overhead."
"The pricing is reasonable, given the features that they provide."
"We pay for a number of devices on the accounts and since it is on-premises, we pay the maintenance charges for the year."
"Licensing is calculated on a per-user basis."
"If you are looking for the best product with the best price, Infraon is the best product. We evaluated five to six products and finally felt Infraon was better because of the pricing model, especially because it was more flexible."
"I think that the pricing for this solution is reasonable and varies by number of devices."
"The cost model is within our budget. I have less than 180 critical assets, but the moment that I have 1,000 assets, then the license model is totally different. I don't know whether they are capable of handling that kind of a load. They could revisit the licensing model."
