Has indicators that tell us if a machine is idle, in use, powered off, etc.
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. We're currently migrating from Kaseya VSA nine to ten. Nine's automation capabilities don't exist, which is the main reason we're upgrading to ten.
Babawale Awojinrin - PeerSpot reviewer
Allows the incorporation of systems and integration of remote systems
The initial setup is straightforward and requires three to five minutes. It starts with determining the PC's architecture (64-bit or 32-bit), leading the user to know which version to download. Additionally, there are a number of factors that need to be considered like the number of technical users for remote access, the number of remote locations, and storage requirements. These factors will guide the user license purchase. We should always factor in costs, and there's potential for offering more accessible pricing, especially in markets like Africa and developing countries, given their business environment. On the other hand, there have been challenges stemming from the transition; the previous owners used a free tool like NGINX for remote operations. Transitioning to a paid remote tool is driven by security and enhanced features.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Kesaya is highly configurable."
"The most valuable features of Kaseya VSA are remote control, live connect, and automation."
"The automation capabilities are incredible!"
"Kaseya VSA's best features are auditing and reporting."
"I like the remote control, audit, inventory, patch management, software management, and monitoring features."
"Patch management was very useful. Backdoor access to the clients was also very useful."
"The patching is very efficient and we can rely on the alerts that we receive."
"The solution was scalable."
"It is a scalable solution...The initial setup of TeamViewer Remote Management was very simple."
"The screen-sharing feature is good. The latency is considerably lower compared to platforms like Zoom."
"The most recent enhancements are quite remarkable."
"The fact that it's user-friendly and it has a chat option. These are my two favorite features."
"There are some great features."
"It's easy to use and maintain."
"The most valuable feature is the ease of use. Using this solution enables us to get support easily."
"Almost all the features are valuable to me, like the scalable feature and its highly interactive software."
 

Cons

"Our main concern is related to security. Kaseya had a ransomware attack a few months ago, and it was a big concern for us because Kaseya was the main RMM tool that we were using. We faced a lot of difficulties accessing our users and systems. So, security is our main concern."
"The predefined reports are not up to the mark and you have to do a lot of customization."
"I believe we should include a VSA license to provide complete endpoint management."
"Its scripting language kind of sucked. They have their own version of PowerShell inside VSA. if you want to reach out and grab endpoint information, for instance, to know how many end devices have a program installed, you actually have to write a script for that. It wasn't like how it is in CrowdStrike where you can just do a search, and it just happened. In VSA, you have to write your own script to do it. In terms of new features, an integrated MDM for mobile devices would be awesome."
"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."
"I would like to see improved virtual infrastructure management."
"There is room for improvement in the remote control strengths."
"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."
"Using the solution’s remote connection causes some lagging issues."
"The connectivity could improve."
"Integration with other tools would be great."
"Licensing has always been a concern, as it can be costly when we need simultaneous access for multiple users."
"AnyDesk is easier compared to TeamViewer Remote Management since there is no password. We use AnyDesk more."
"If you have one version, like if you have version 14, and the client has version 15, you can't access his computer. If the client is on 14 and the technician is on 15, he can't access the end user who's at home. So there's a disparity in versioning."
"The solution is a bit expensive. It could be cheaper."
"There should be an enterprise version of the solution."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Customers purchase the solutions because it is priced well. There are additional services that have an additional cost."
"The solution is robust and the price is good for the features that are provided."
"Licensing is available on a yearly basis and is priced per node."
"Kaseya's come down in pricing when I compare it to TeamViewer or other cheaper RMMs like LogMeIn."
"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."
"Kaseya VSA can be described as a fairly priced product."
"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."
"I find Kaseya VSA's pricing extraordinarily expensive, with very limiting contracts. They discuss being flexible once you're locked in, but I haven't found that true. It is one of the most expensive tools in my arsenal and our highest expense to any company."
"Our licenses for TeamViewer Remote Management are being managed directly by our procurement team. If we need more licenses they handle it."
"Addition services could be lower priced."
"There are no charges to be paid for the solution since I use it for personal use."
"We pay for a yearly license."
"The solution relies on cloud-based infrastructure so the price is tailored to each individual model used"
"The solution's license is expensive."
"We pay a yearly licensing fee."
"My company needs to pay towards the solution's annual licensing subscription costs. There are no extra costs in addition to the standard license fees of the product."
