Automation tools improve management efficiency, though migration process is time-consuming and support could be more knowledgeable

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. We use some of the probe features in ConnectWise RMM that do network discovery and monitoring capabilities. ConnectWise RMM helps our team maintain network visibility and proactively address potential issues since the product works effectively at unknown device discovery, making it better than sending someone to the site for a manual discovery. ConnectWise RMM helps in automating security updates and maintaining endpoint security. We appreciate that their NOC team does evaluations on the security updates, allowing us to free up our time and making it a huge timesaver for us. The ability to do deployments through ConnectWise RMM's scripting features allows us to deploy new software or monitor the status of antivirus or system protection software, presenting another measurable benefit for us regarding ROI.

Has enabled us to detect issues instantly through alerts and monitor every service from a single dashboard

Splunk requires significantly more improvements compared to Splunk AppDynamics, specifically regarding the licensing aspect. Splunk renews licenses every six months, which is inconvenient. It would be better to have a one-year license to avoid needing to update keys constantly, which can only occur on weekends, making it a burdensome task. Although Splunk is better for certain use cases, Splunk AppDynamics is broader in functionality. Specifically, I want enhancements related to creating dashboards not only for logs or minor services but also for configuration levels, allowing us to check configurations immediately without manually opening the entire code when exceptions arise—a feature I wish to see improved in Splunk, although it may not be necessary for Splunk AppDynamics.
