Find out what your peers are saying about NinjaOne, Kaseya, TeamViewer and others in Remote Monitoring and Management (RMM)."Scripting and patch management are really important for us. Patch Manager is something that we use a lot, and we would love to have it continually improved. It is one of the most useful features for us for controlling patches and other things for different clients."
"The most value we get from this solution is that everything is on a patch cycle."
"We use monitors to keep track of our machines. We use a pretty good portion of information from Automate."
"The database is great. It's a nicely ordered database."
"Maybe they could improve the capability to be multi-tenant."
"This product saves us a lot of time and increases our efficiency."
"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."
"Remote access and detailed monitoring help us support our equipment."
"Remote access is really the biggest one, because in order to be able to support my clients from wherever I am, that is the biggest feature."
"It allows you to transfer along with many other functions."
"This solution has allowed granular permission access to machines, very consistent and solid most of the time."
"For me, it's convenience because I cover three different offices, and I need to be able to remotely access any of those three offices from anywhere, anytime. With LogMeIn Central, I can do that."
"It is a scalable solution."
"Using the product, we provide a quicker response when supporting customers."
"The initial setup was very easy."
"The initial setup was simple."
"Scheduling of automation could be improved and made more simple."
"The project management needs improvement and there's a section of the product called configuration that also needs to be improved."
"They always change the GUI to some dumb-down version of tiles which are more "user-friendly", but slows my team down in the end."
"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."
"Patching and reporting need improvements, especially reporting. The reporting engine is quite outdated, so you end up having to use your own dashboard."
"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."
"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."
"Sometimes it just fails to load."
"It needs backwards compatibility for non-Microsoft-supported operating systems, for example, XP and 2003. In situations where I have no options but to run older operating systems, I would like for it to be backwards compatible."
"The file transfer could be better. They could make it a lot easier to deal with. LogMeIn Central is not that intuitive. It's a lot harder to figure out."
"File transfer on the free version needs improvement. Allow file transfer with drag and drop to and from Remote Desktop. "
"It is easy to get locked out, which is something that needs to be improved."
"There are some screens that are just ugly and difficult to manipulate."
"The update issues are an absolute pain. It says it is updating things, but the updates do not go through, and you try your hardest to get the updates to go through and they don't. You go to the PC, but there is no update there, then you go back and it says there are updates."
"The solution is expensive as hell."
