IT Manager at Telstra
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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It is reliable, and when it is working, it works without issues."
"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 most valuable features of this solution are automatic batch matching and unattended support access."
"One thing that I'm most impressed by with Atera is how much they listen to their community to focus on more integrations."
"Atera has saved our organization money; we look at Atera as an extra employee that we only pay about $300 a month, which is incredible savings over having to hire somebody to do all the tasks that Atera performs for us."
"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."
"Atera has positively impacted my organization by transforming how our team operates day-to-day, and the pricing model is hard to beat."
"Atera has saved us a lot of time."
"Network quality monitoring of multicast TV channels and other network monitorings."
"The live packet capture feature enables quicker troubleshooting and better network monitoring."
 

Cons

"There is definitely room for improvement with its automation capabilities."
"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."
"It should improve its processes."
"The one thing that could do with improvement is the reporting."
"The solution is scalable. However, in the past, we did have some issues."
"Reporting is probably the main frustration."
"Customization could be improved."
"Having more freedom to perform identity access management would be great — it's one of the things that are necessary for a lot of companies they secured."
"The web interface is ok, but I would like to see if it was possible to group jobs better and to create our own dashboards."
 

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."
"We pay per user. I am the only user. It is $150 per user. If I need to add one, it is not as costly as expanding with other providers."
"Atera happened to have the best pricing model."
"As an internal IT, it's gold right there. It is money in the bank."
"Pricing is my favorite part of it. It was per user, not per client."
"It comes with unlimited devices, so the fixed price cost is taken out of my budget. So, I'm all good."
"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."
"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."
