Lightweight tool aids in remote management but needs better support
Primarily, we are using it for remote monitoring and management as an MSP. We are basically a reseller; we are a service provider, so Kaseya VSA is one of our tools which we use for our managed services The best features of Kaseya VSA are that it's lightweight over the machine and does not create…

Pros

"The most effective feature of Ivanti Neurons for Patch Management is its reactivity when a patch is released before its due date."
"The most valuable feature of Kaseya VSA is the ability to control laptops remotely."
"The solution was scalable."
"The unique thing I like most about Kaseya VSA is the quick indicators that tell us if a machine is idle, in use, powered off, etc. This allows us to handle client tasks when their machine is idle."
"The training that we received was quite good."
"The most valuable piece of the puzzle for me is what they call Live Connect. It is the piece that allows you to support an end-user without having to take the keyboard and mouse."
"Patch management was very useful. Backdoor access to the clients was also very useful."
"Kaseya VSA's best features are auditing and reporting."
"As a small IT shop, the weird feature that the VSA has that I have not found anywhere else is they have these little colored dots that tell you the status of the machine. Is it offline and powered up? Is it actively being used? Is it idle? A lot of our clients ask us to do things for them, but, of course, they don't really want us to be underfoot. So we always look for, "Hey, there's an idle machine. We can work on that one now." And to say it makes it easy, we can do that at a glance. In any other tool we've looked at, you have to go several layers deep to see if the machine is in use, and you could spend your entire day just trying to find a machine that was idle, whereas, with Kaseya VSA, you can tell at a glance."
 

Cons

"Reporting needs improvement. It is not very useful and lacks depth."
"I believe we should include a VSA license to provide complete endpoint management."
"The user interface is somewhat outdated."
"It never functioned as intended."
"If you compare with other products, Manage Engine has some features that we like but are not present in Kaseya."
"The main difference would be the addition of audio transfer between the end-user and the remote connectivity software. That is the one critical piece that we are currently lacking."
"We actually upgraded the solution due to the fact that we needed the support for Apple devices. We haven't had a chance to test that part of the product just yet, however, that was our biggest criticism of the product prior to this most recent update."
"The reporting feature in Kaseya VSA could improve by being more user-friendly. The reporting overview is too wordy or the representation can be better."
"It's very difficult to update the third-party software on every device."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The pricing is quite good and we are satisfied with it."
"You're going to pay for this solution, but you're going to get so much more out of it in reporting, asset management, and the ability to manage your clients. I would recommend giving Kaseya serious consideration and I would recommend implementing it."
"We pay a monthly fee, but it's a three-year contract divided by 36. They don't offer a true SaaS plan where you can add licenses monthly as you go. The cost is $7 per person per month, and we are paying about $1,700 a month."
"It is not expensive. Anyone can afford it. Most of the time, we get a discount for licenses. We had about 5,000 agents, and we received a discount on the price. There is only the licensing cost. If you use the on-prem version, you also have the infrastructure cost."
"It depends on what products you want. Kaseya loves packages, and if you are packaging, it is more affordable. If you're not packaging, it tends to be a little bit more expensive than others."
"The solution is robust and the price is good for the features that are provided."
"The solution's pricing is reasonable."
"Though I don't have complete visibility over the solution's pricing, the solution is not cheap, from what I remember. The solution is on the pricey end."
