Another thing is fewer employees are needed to do things because after the integration, a lot of work has been reduced; you just go there, check, monitor, and if action is needed, we take the action.

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.

Proactive alert routing has improved uptime and now reduces incident impact across teams
Squadcast requires improvement in that whenever team members upload notes, there is a restriction preventing them from manually resolving alerts. Alerts can only be resolved via proper signals from Alertmanager. Users should not be able to resolve incidents without manual intervention. This is a major requirement because team members sometimes resolve alerts manually, risking the resolution of critical alerts. Additionally, with multiple production environments and services, we receive multiple alerts for issues such as the same disk alert several times. To reduce this noise, we utilize suppression and need deduplication rules. Having a feature to set deduplication rules in one service applicable to other services would be a great help. Other improvements needed for Squadcast include observations I have made over the last four years, and I will convey any updates regarding improvements in the future.
