Director of IT Services at Braden IT Services
Decreases user onboarding and offboarding time, and invaluable for discussing shadow IT and security
One of the most valuable features of Auvik SaaS Management is the insights into user applications and the security around that. We can understand and get full visibility into what end-users are using. Most organizations can list off the top five apps that they use but, lo and behold, we're able to discover that there are 30 or 40 apps in use within the organization that nobody knew about. From a security standpoint, helping to track those down is very critical and Auvik SaaS Management allows us to do that. The single sign-on detection feature is also very important. If we have single sign-on, we can see what they're leveraging that sign-on to gain access to. And an extremely important component of Auvik SaaS Management is the reporting engine. It allows us to perform assessments and sit down with organizations to review what they're actually doing with their SaaS apps. Typically, when we come in, they have no idea how many SaaS apps they have out there. They might not know that someone in accounting or someone in marketing just purchased something to accomplish a task. The reporting gives us visibility into that and is done in a fashion in which it's very easy to understand, with some of the executive summaries. We don't have to spend time having technical discussions about what the information means. We're able to have the discussion of what it means to the business and for solving problems there. The reporting is absolutely critical and they do a good job of it.

Has migrated user mailboxes and collaboration data with minimal challenges
I'm currently working with On Demand Migration solution from Quest. I am providing feedback regarding my experience with On Demand Migration. I have used automated scheduling in On Demand Migration. I can run immediate migration or schedule it as per my convenience, but I have used the run immediately option because I needed it on an urgent basis. The effectiveness of On Demand Migration detailed reporting in managing migration progress is quite good, as there is a report option where I can see what migration got successfully completed, which failed, and even the problem ID and event ID, allowing me to troubleshoot easily on the demand portal. I have not explored the data filtering options. I have not explored data filtering for filtering the data. In terms of data security, we are using independent DLP for data protection in our organization. I have not explored features such as AI functionality or additional security aspects, as I have explored only On Demand Migration for mailbox, Teams chat, Teams channel, and OneDrive. For O365 to O365, it's a very good and easy tool, so I can recommend anyone using O365 to O365 tenant migration to go with On Demand Migration. My overall rating for this product is 9 out of 10.

Pros

"We can understand and get full visibility into what end-users are using. Most organizations can list off the top five apps that they use but, lo and behold, we're able to discover that there are 30 or 40 apps in use within the organization that nobody knew about."
"The most valuable feature is the identification of the various user names used to log into apps that are critical in terms of data security."
"The ability to see what accounts and services are being accessed at any given time is valuable, and that's also true for most of my clients. Another good use is time management. If one of my clients asks me, "Hey, how long is John accessing Dropbox throughout the day?" I can do that with Auvik SaaS Management. Auvik SaaS Management can give me a report on the usage of a single user."
"The most valuable features are application monitoring and reporting. I like putting all the filters on the report to get the desired results. Reporting is one of the essential features we use, depending on what is required. I run it monthly or quarterly. We have some reports scheduled to run monthly to track new applications coming in. We're good at going through them and classifying them."
"Auvik SaaS Management gives us the tools to classify the applications from a management standpoint. It also provides an overview of when various software might be up for renewal on an agreement."
"When we offboard an employee, we know which applications that employee used. For example, let's say Bob left the company, but we don't know all the applications he used. We can run a report showing everything Bob accessed, giving us some leverage to go back to the client and say, "Hey, these are all the applications he used. We manage these, and you still need to take care of these." It gives us expectations to provide to our clients."
"The license monitoring and management capabilities probably top the list of most valuable features in terms of everyday day utility. You can go to customers and say, "You have 100 licenses of Office 365 E3, but you only use 95, so we can adjust your licensing and save you some money.""
"We use the solution to track unauthorized apps our employees use so we can talk to them or block the apps at the firewall if needed. More importantly, we track shared credentials and services employees access on company devices, especially when someone's leaving. If someone had access to a shared account, which we try to avoid, but if there was one with a logged-in password, we can change it when we off-board the employee or shut down their account."
"Quest allows you to customize your migration. For example, you can opt only to migrate Microsoft Teams and the related data or you can migrate all of Office 365. You can also choose to migrate accounts and mailboxes. Sometimes, we don't want to migrate SharePoint data, or we only want to migrate specific users."
"They have a demo version that you can test before you purchase it so you can see that it does what you need before you commit financially."
"The greatest asset is its nature as a SaaS product, offering exceptional scalability and flexibility, which are invaluable to us."
"You can batch up large groups. You can tell it to move everything for 200 people, and then it just goes. Once you get things set and configured, it is pretty easy. I can hand it off to people more junior to me who are less trained on the product, and they can be successful."
"The solution is really stable when it comes to mailbox migration and all of the following work very well: the mail content, the OneDrive for Business content, and migrating all Azure AD objects."
"The most valuable features of Quest On Demand Migration have been the M365 migration and Active Directory (AD) migration components."
"We can easily and simply work out the cost for any migration work that is required with the licensing model."
"We can see the issues that may come up during migration. We can handle multiple workloads using this since it connects with Microsoft 365."
 

Cons

"The user interface and some of the application classification features could be improved. I'd love the ability to bulk-edit some of the applications."
"Integration with macOS and Apple devices could be better. I believe this is something they're working on, but it needs a little more work."
"They're working on Auvik's ability to detect when people are using multifactor authentication, but some more automation in that area would be nice."
"They've started working on integrations with other platforms for sharing data across other tools that are commonly used in the industry. I'd like to see that continue to improve. They do have to make the integrations deeper."
"The reporting is excellent, but it could always be better. Sometimes we'd like the reports to be in different formats. Auvik SaaS Management could also be better integrated with some of our other tools. It's like an island unto itself, but we're an Autotask shop. We use Datto RMM and Autotask PSA. It'd be great to see Auvik SaaS Management alerts in our Autotask tools."
"The web portal isn't very intuitive, especially for me. I struggle while creating permissions to allow clients to do the portal. It was a little tricky, but I was able to contact people from Auvik SaaS Management, and they helped me."
"Before Auvik bought Saaslio, we struggled with the single sign-on because it would sign you off quickly. I would be presenting to my clients on the software or categorizing, like, "Hey, what is this app used for?" When I was inside Saaslio, it would kick me out, so I would have to log back in."
"One area for improvement in the tool , which they said might be on the roadmap, is better integration of features like tagging product owners, leaving notes, and setting statuses such as pending review, approved, deployed, etc. I want to use the product to write notes under an application, like when people start using the Brave Browser, and tag Billy Bob, who manages it. I want a report showing all the products Billy Bob owns, along with associated notes, so I can discuss everything with him in one meeting. Currently, I have to click on each application individually and copy and paste notes elsewhere, which isn't efficient."
"We had some issues with migrating Teams."
"Their support interface is not so great because you need to go through several links before you can raise the ticket. Sometimes the interface freezes up, and there is some downtime. They give us some notice. It says at the top of the interface that there will be scheduled maintenance in a given region or there is currently an outage. You can see upcoming downtime in the portal and plan accordingly."
"They should introduce a module for migrating power automation for users."
"In terms of Microsoft Teams, the only disappointment for us has been how the chats are migrated. They just don't look exactly the same as they would if you were logging on as normal. Obviously, when it comes to the user experience, you want the look and feel of everything to be replicated identically, and chats is the only part of it that doesn't look identical. However, it's not a 'car crash.' It's a slight deviation from what people would expect."
"They could provide on-premises to online exchange components for the platform. It would be highly valuable."
"It would be more useful if I could scope the dashboard. I would like to be able to scope the users that I want to see to a much smaller list. When I am looking into a tenant with 35,000 accounts, and I am only moving 2,000 of them, I wish that the guys had been smarter about the discovery, and I could have only discovered those accounts, but there is not too much to complain about."
"One of the things that can be included is automation. For the matching and the migration process, they could put in some automation. I'm only allowed about 25 users at a time. If it's a large tenant, it takes quite a while to put them in the batches. If there is enough automation into that, that'd be perfect."
"The granting of consent for doing the different tasks is confusing."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution's pricing and licensing model are fair and based on users rather than devices, which helps consolidate tracking and licensing costs."
"Auvik SaaS Management is priced well. It's a no-brainer for us to implement it."
"The price is great. It doesn't get any better. I told their CEO, "I feel like I'm stealing it from you." I'm serious because the price is amazing."
"There is definitely value from Auvik SaaS Management, so I don't think it's outrageously priced. There's always room for evolution of the model, depending on how the platform is being leveraged."
"I think Auvik SaaS Management's pricing is great. We're a managed services company, and one site license covers all our clients."
"I find the pricing to be cost-efficient for what you receive with the Quest product."
"The solution is on the more expensive side, when you compare it not only to BitTitan but to other tools in the cloud market. Of course, you receive things like Quest's support organization."
"It is quite cheap. Previously, I used to work for a big company, and they get quite a good deal, and now, I'm working for a small company, and even they get quite a good deal. So, its pricing is quite fair."
"The pricing is in line with other products."
"I thought On Demand Migration would be more expensive. I'm pleased with the cost that was quoted."
"We are fine with the tool's pricing."
"It is more than fair for what you get."
"The product had reasonable pricing until the beginning of this year. Now, the price is increased by 20%."
