Featured Reviews

Faiz Fortune - PeerSpot reviewer
Project Engineer at Moksh Tech
Automated monitoring has streamlined time tracking and project management across all clients
I think the most valuable feature of ConnectWise RMM is scheduling my time with clients and capturing my times with them. Time management is key for my workflow. It helps with keeping track of all our clients and all the devices, so ConnectWise RMM has been quite helpful in managing my IT environment overall. Automated patch management in ConnectWise RMM has made everything streamlined, allowing me to concentrate on more important tasks. I can run my automations and ensure that they go through every server, every cloud infrastructure, and every client. I've observed that with ConnectWise RMM, capturing my times used to be quite an issue when working with overseas countries, but now it's much easier, and I can monitor everything I'm doing in real-time.

Senior Systems Engineer at a energy/utilities company with 201-500 employees
Monitors well with Citrix, stable, and the support is very responsive
It looks like it is easy to scale, but I don't know how far it can go out. We are only a 300, or 400 person company. We are not terribly large. It looks like it should be able to scale up until 10,000 at least. There are two users in the company who use this solution, I use it, and the helpdesk.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The best features of ConnectWise RMM are the automation tools that they've included, which are quite good, enabling us to mass manage systems, schedule scripts, etc."
"The most valuable features are RMM and patch management. However, the main reason we have been using this solution is that they are the only provider of RMM that has an outsourced NOC and help desk. This has been very useful."
"It enables us to respond to issues quickly and efficiently."
"My advice for others looking into using ConnectWise RMM is that it is the best tool to work with in terms of RMM, and I do not know why people prefer NinjaOne; I clearly prefer ConnectWise much more."
"Automated patch management in ConnectWise RMM has made everything streamlined, allowing me to concentrate on more important tasks."
"The most valuable feature is the patching solution."
"The technical support has been fantastic."
"We've seen a lot of MSPs who have grown by using Continuum."
"Offers a diversity of features."
"I like that the solution offers a diversity of things; it can give you resource monitoring, it can be integrated to detect an application crash, to capture syslog, things like that, and I like the diversity of the dashboard."
"I think Goliath offers a very good tool to do simulated Citrix logons with actual user accounts and that the reports are useful to monitor and debug a session."
"I like that it not only has the ability to monitor but that it can do a lot of specific Citrix monitoring."
"In conclusion, I think Goliath Performance Monitor is a true winner."
"I would definitely give them high praise for what they do, and for being a special niche product."
"My overall conclusion is that it is a valuable product for simulating Citrix logons because it does it with minimal effort and with a real user account."
 

Cons

"They can include support for vaulting, where you can actually document the entire infrastructure, including servers, desktops, networks, passwords, maps, diagrams, and customer information. Continuum has integrated everything, and you have to use a PSA. Continuum has a ticketing system and an RMM. They could integrate the functionality for IT documentation. An MSP would want everything into one tool."
"If a computer hasn't been turned on for a long time and the client software is installed, it may not reconnect to the dashboard once it's powered up."
"The initial setup with ConnectWise RMM is painful, to be completely honest. The pain points during the initial setup with ConnectWise RMM include the migration from Automate to RMM being very time-consuming and the process not being as straightforward as indicated."
"It's a legacy tool with many outdated approaches. It is managed offshore which affects everyone because it seems the developers don't fully understand our needs."
"ConnectWise RMM sometimes has a lag, and the speed can be an issue."
"The solution could improve by offering better overall management and dashboards."
"I would like to see the incorporation of the dashboards for other products that they work with into the main dashboard."
"Issues with generating reports; consistency is not there."
"However, its GUI can use a little help. The navigation is not the most straightforward like many other monitoring tools."
"The setup is a bit complex."
"I would love to be able to tell what ISP the user is coming from."
"Hardware requirements of the management server are kind of steep, 4cpu is quite a number."
"With Goliath IT Monitors, the processing speed is very slow."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The licensing works such that the more you add, the more it costs, but for the most part, the price starts at about $5 USD per client."
"It has a pay-as-you-go model. They don't have any minimum, maximum, or such sorts of commitments with any of their partners or customers. I don't believe they have any restrictions about using a specific number of agents. You don't have to use 100 agents or 200 agents to work with this. They have a lock-in period of three months, during which you cannot switch a service plan, which is fine."
"Continuum Command price is more expensive than competitors, it is three times the price of the next lowest and costs approximately $25 an endpoint. However, when you take that into account you receive the help desk and outsource NOC included it has a lot more value because competitors do not provide the outsourced NOC and help desk."
"The price seems reasonable."
