Easy to Use

We have asked for enhancements and another report for client SLA reporting. They have been good in walking us through setting up the self serve portal and an additional SLA report.

PROS

We came off of a much expensive RMM tool. Atera has all the features that we were looking for. Adding another device to monitor is easy and does not increase your costs.

CONS

Since the time we started with them they have expanded their integration to billing and added an app that we can use. You get what you pay for and we are getting a lot more value than we got with our previous tool.

Reasons for switching to Atera

Primarily Cost and it was cumbersome.

I need free time for me

We manage many clients and many servers. The best thing is how everything is under control. And ATERA does it really well. All too well

PROS

Since we use ATERA, we discover another king of metod to manage our customer. Simplicity is better quality of Atera.

CONS

Still nothing for now. Every day is a new discovery by implementing management functions

Reason for choosing Atera

First of all the price. Second: other products count the agent on any device. Atera consider the Technicians the focus of the business. Pay for every Technician and do everything you want. I like this kind of mentality.

Reasons for switching to Atera

Because it's too cumbersome to do the same things that we do with Atera in a few minutes. We tested the Atera for two months before making the switch.

Vendor Response

Hi Andrea, Thanks for reviewing Atera. So happy to hear that you find the platform to be simple and effective for you. Hopefully you continue to find no cons, and to discover new management functions. Check out our release notes to stay up to date: https://support.atera.com/hc/en-us/sections/201896227-Release-Notes

Great all-in-one integrated MSP/RMM service

I work with Atera for 12 years now and it is part of my company structure. So my experience is positive. It's usable for me. I don't use all components yet, we are just a small ICT company.

PROS

flawless integration of RMM/managment/ticketing and other features. But a great pro is the license model: pay per agent instead of pay per device

CONS

I miss the Apple Mac agent in the professional version, that should be a standard feature for all subscriptions Dutch language for ticket system. seperate dashboard for central monitoring screen at the helpdesk office.

Reason for choosing Atera

complete/all-in-one, enthousiast team with quick release of new features. Personal contact with dutch team

Vendor Response

Hi Tim, Thanks for leaving this great review. It is important to hear both what you like about Atera ("flawless integration," the pricing model, all-in-one solution) and where we can improve (Mac agent in the pro subscription, Dutch language available on the platform). We appreciate your valuable insight, and hope that you continue to find Atera is efficient and helps you work the most effectively!

Great RMM solution for standalone business with multiple locations.

We needed a RMM/remote connection solution for in-house IT ticketing and helpdesk for a growing eye care/healthcare/eye surgery company with two technicians, 8 locations, some in-house server/data management, and nearly 500 endpoints/workstations. Atera has been great to cover all those needs.

PROS

To be honest, the price is what caught my eye first. I assumed that when you pay less, you get a lot less, but that is NOT the case. Atera does exactly what we needed, and we don't feel like we are paying for option we don't even use. Solid reliable service.

CONS

Very few minor issues that aren't even worth mentioning.

Reason for choosing Atera

At first, price. However Atera was very full featured and well developed which was a pleasant surprise.

Vendor Response

Hi Adam, Thanks for taking the time to leave this review of Atera. Happy to hear that you came for the price, but stayed for the value you found in the platform! We hope that Atera continues to fill your needs as an MSP.

Great software that keeps getting better!

It's a great product at a great price. I hope they keep improving and listen to the community that uses it!

PROS

It's easy to set up and use. All the features are there and they keeps adding more and fine tuning the experience.

CONS

The only thing that has been frustrating is the lack of multimonitor support in Splashtop (the main remote connection software). This feature is available in the regular version of Spashtop, the community has requested it numerous times but it still hasn't been implemented.

Reasons for switching to Atera

Cost was too high and felt like I was always tweaking the software to get what I wanted but it always fell short.

Vendor Response

Hey Josh, Thanks for taking the time to leave this review. Happy to hear that you find Atera easy-to-use, and like the continually added features! Regarding multi-monitor support, you are able to do this with AnyDesk which is available on our Growth and Power subscription plans! Keep enjoying Atera, Josh!

Helped us dramatically streamline IT Support

PROS

Atera helped us dramatically to streamline our IT support, remote administration, system health monitoring and system automation. Giving us insights that were only possible with physically having the machine within our network before.

CONS

Additional Atera features are only available as an additional subscription.

Reason for choosing Atera

Pricing and additional value with discounted 3rd integrations.

Vendor Response

Hi Benjamin, Thanks for taking the time to review Atera. So great that the platform has helped you streamline your IT support, thats our goal! Regarding new features being available for additional subscriptions, this is a company decision. However, you are always welcome to reach out to success@atera.com to give us this important feedback.

For a one man company it is great.

PROS

I can do most everything I need with this software and an email account.

CONS

The "free" remote access can be a challenge. AnyDesk sometime just doesn't work or acts weird. Splashtop wants to install printers all the time. Neither is terrible and between the two I can get the job done.

Reason for choosing Atera

Logmein was just too expensive because of their business model. Ninja One looked good but I really didn't have the time to try it out properly and it didn't look that much better to justify making the time.

Vendor Response

Hi Mark, Thanks for taking the time to review Atera. Its great that you can do everything you need all in one place! Regarding the issues you have experienced with the remote access tools, please reach out to support to make sure everything is functioning properly. We hope you continue to enjoy Atera, and know that you can expand your business with our platform.

Atera RMM

Overall, my experience with Atera is over 3 years, and I would say, I can't accomplish some stuff without Atera. Atera as RMM makes very easy and convenient solution for MSP

PROS

I like reliability and access to management console everywhere

CONS

When install the helpdesk client , even after registration, after a day its kicks out a a session and asks for user to register again

Reason for choosing Atera

Price play a lot , and capability for a software

Highly recommend Atera

Customers are happy that I can quickly and easily remotely connect to their computers and resolve issues. Generating reports for customers is very valuable as it shows what my customers are getting for the price they pay for my services. Having customers simply send an email for support tickets has greatly reduced call volume and made things less stressful.

PROS

Atera is very much interested in what their customers think and request for suggestions or improvements. Atera is affordable because they charge per technician instead of per end point. The Atera interface is fast and not bogged down with so many features that it makes it confusing and time consuming. I really like that the main features of support tickets, Alerts, and Reports are easy to get to and analyze. The support ticket system is quick and easy to use as a technician and it's great that customers just have to send a simple email to create a support ticket. Atera Reports are great to create and send to customers to show what is happening behind the scenes. Remote connection to customers' computers is another feature that works very well. Connecting remotely to my customers' computers is quick and easy. No messing around with codes or having customers download and install extra special software.

CONS

Not much to dislike about Atera. I would like to see the Alerts to be improved upon by making them not alert me every time a computer has a small spike in CPU and/or memory usage as well as temperatures. I would also like to see the Atera website more compatible with the new Microsoft Edge browser that is being released in January of 2020. Currently the support tickets' information details appear as narrow paragraphs. Currently there is no mobile app to get notifications of new support tickets and to access and edit current support tickets.

Reason for choosing Atera

Affordable and easy to use with just the right features I need for my business.

Reasons for switching to Atera

ConnectWise has way too many bells and whistles for what I need and they are too expensive charging per end point. Too complicated to use.

Atera Review

Atera allows us to have a Help Desk system, remote login capabilities, and inventory management all in one.

PROS

The amount of features for the price is hard to compete with.

CONS

The user interface isn't as simple and elegant as other more expensive alternatives. Searching for devices based on serial number still hasn't been implemented.

Reason for choosing Atera

TeamViewer is a much more expensive alternative.

Reasons for switching to Atera

Samanage and Logmein Central were a more expensive alternative. Logmein was also raising prices. Atera was able to replace both products.

Perfect RMM for small ITSP & MSP's

Good overall experience with ease of use. Would like more custom reports or the ability to perform customer reports by being able to select certain variables whilst not being constrained by the builtin reports

PROS

The Cost is almost unchallenged & very easy to implement. Got some good reports built in and allows easy monitoring of snmp devices & other agent installed devices.

CONS

Limited reporting when compared to the competitor and limited network features for monitoring. SNMP Interface for adding SNMP Devices is good but sometimes can be a little confusing.

Reason for choosing Atera

Mainly cost was the deciding factor due to it being the first RMM we wanted to introduce so couldn't justify stupid costs for something that may not end up being used.

Makes my life easy!

Extremely positive. Their support is excellent and they are very willing to listen to feedback.

PROS

For us it is all about problem alerting and remote management both of which work extremely well for us. I also use (lightly) the patching tools.

CONS

I still find the patching and scripting tools to be a bit of a bother. My biggest complaint is the patching tool that does scheduling does not seem to pick up machines "after the fact" if they are not online when the schedule fires. The tool itself works well, it is the scheduler that seems to have issues.

Reasons for switching to Atera

iTarian as a product is horribly unfinished. As a "free" product it was tolerable, as a paid for product it is woefully inadequate and almost a joke. Atera, for a wee bit more money , solved all of my problems and then some. I can rely on Atera, always. I could not rely on iTarian.
