Awesome ticketing software
Our main ticketing software which is so complete in every aspect we use it. Projects and service calls are great to ensure we are actually checking the work that needs to be done.
CONSWorkflows can get tricky and sometimes break stuff, but nothing support cannot solve

Org Management
Overall business management has improved customer service with automated workflows. Better employee time management and tracking.
PROSI have found that BMS works better then SolarWinds AutoTask. A lot less pop-ups, cleaner interface, and less micro-managing of the solution.
CONSI would like more seamless support. It is a problem with Kaseya that I have to call a specialist on each product, and when you are integrated with their ITGlue, AuthAnvil, and their VSA product knowlageable and timely help is hard to find. It can days for a resolution.
Reason for choosing Kaseya BMS
A cleaner interface and price.
Reasons for switching to Kaseya BMS
It became overwhelming to use the product as a growing business.

BMS is a serviceable CRM at a good price, but leaves a few things to be desired.
We saved some money over our previous CRM.
PROSIn a word: value. BMS is very reasonable priced CRM with some great features. It's easy to use, cloud based, and generates tickets directly from Kaseya's PSA.
CONSWe transferred from a more established CRM to Kaseya. Given the cost and the fact that we already utilized Kaseya's VSA it seemed like a natural move. That said, we've experience a few issues. The client portal isn't as polished as we'd like. Inventory tracking is bad to the point of non-functional, and lacks the ability to even transfer between locations. Feature request are not quickly addressed. The cloud service lags or drops more than we'd like. Asset management is not great. Integrations are starting to catch up , but they've been slow in coming. Even the way items are listed on tickets is cumbersome.

Kaseya BMS
I love the dashboard on the Finance Dashboard. It tells you which contracts are ending soon and has a graph that's autogenerated to show your current month, quarter or year sales per client with percentages.
CONSI do not like the fact you cannot VOID or edit invoices after they're generated. If there is a change management wants to makes I have to VOID and restart. I didn't have to do that will our previous program ConnectWise. Also, this program lacks many features I used previously. Instead of being able to do these things I can only submit a feature request.
Reasons for switching to Kaseya BMS
ConnectWise kept increasing there prices and their support team wasn't as responsive as it used to be.

Great Integrations
We continue to invest in Kaseya's stack and BMS was a pivotal piece in this. The integrations are powerful and will hopefully provide a strong value case in time savings as we move down the road using it.
PROSThe software is part of an overall suite that integrate very well together. Between it, VSA and IT Glue you get down to s single pane of glass concept. Having information available from all three inside BMS is powerful and saves time. They have been developing more features and integrations on a fast cadence and we look forward to some of the new ones they roll out.
CONSConverting from Autotask to BMS was a little bit of a challenge. We have a lot of integrations and it made the project management of our implementation difficult. We worked with the Kaseya team and got through it but the time to do so was about 2-3 times a normal roll out. Block hour contracts are really bad in BMS versus Autotask. Hopefully they will improve in the not to distant future.
Reasons for switching to Kaseya BMS
Better integrations and better pricing overall.

Great software - still needs developing in the Quoting component
Very good. The support team is amazing. They are always kind, patient and knowledgeable.
PROSBMS is visibly pleasing and simple to use - you can figure out the basics without any instruction.
CONSThe Quoting component does not integrate with the Ticketing component. Their solution seems to be to purchase a third party software such as Quotewerx. Training is another piece that seems to be lacking, other than attending Kaseya University or using the online documentation.

Kaseya BMS- Starter PSA
Good, for smaller 1-5 man operations it is recommended as it is simpler to configure and thus being less time consuming overall.
PROSIt is quite simple in comparison to some major players such as Autotask and Connectwise.
CONSIt does make some attempts to offer deeper functionality such as project management, but the features are too shallow to really allow for mutil-team, multi-project management. This goes for other modules. I do like the fact that these are organic features and not added on haphazardly.

Great IT Ticketing System
Honestly its been quite good. My complaints are few. The interface is very sleek, clients get emails for tickets without too much information being thrown at them which has often helped bridge the gap for complicated issues
PROSThe interface is very pleasant to the eyes, as an employee who spends the majority of his time using it, I have yet to get sick of staring at it for so long.
CONSI don't like how something as simple as changing the status of a ticket requires a note. Often enough a client replies with a thank you message after i already closed a ticket, and i have to create an internal note like "Status Change" along with my status change to reclose the ticket.

Good managemante program
This is a good program, there are modules for everything, so you could run or company on this software only. It does not integrate with every accounting software but i do believe it work with Quickbooks.
PROSeasy to use, web based, easy deployment with support, some accounting software integration are available, not expensive.
CONScreating custom reports and workflows can be confusing. The ticketing system works well, there are some negative point to it as to automatically updating customers, you have to remember to apply templates to tickets in order for them to be updated.

Helpdesk Coordinators review on BMS
- I find that the road map and RND were fantastic and that Kaseya is always improving their application for better workflows and productivity.
PROS- Easy to deploy. - Its APIs are quite flexible and easy to integrate. - The licensing model works well for a SAAS application
CONS- The project management function is not optimal for big projects. - The workflows do become quite difficult to manage as there is no way to easily view them.

Incorporating Kaseya BMS for our business has increased the managebility of our clients.
The primary benefits of Kseya BMS is the ability to organize our clients, track changes in the ticketing system as well as simplify our billing through one tool.
PROSWhat one of the best parts of Kaseya BMS is that is ti web based. No specific, Operating System or browser needed. This allows our technical team to work in this system anywhere anytime.
CONSThe most significant drawback seems to be the reporting and granular configuration of options. It is difficult to find a 'multi-tenant RMM tool withj this much power and every feature.

Decent ticketing solution with "loose" integration with Kaseya VSA
BMS provides a modern interface for ticketing with powerful search and decent reporting.
CONSUnfortunately, BMS really falls short on its loose integration with Kaseya VSA. The integration worked sometimes, but needed a frequent "resync" in order to show the latest devices. I had hoped to use the integration to streamline our business processes, but the constant need to switch back and forth between BMS and VSA was cumbersome and counter-productive.

Kaseya BMS - ticketing with all of the meat and potatoes features
For the cost, this is a great software. It does what it needs to do, ticketing. Projects can use a bit of work but they still do the job.
PROSEasy to use and find information. Easy to search, sort, and filter tickets. Client information can be organized easily. Integrates well with RMM tools and accounting software.
CONSA bit lacking in features and can be slow at times. Little wish list items where a feature would be available in a specific screen, and other things like that.

Not the pretiest, but perfect for MSPs like me
a way to track tickets from inception to resolution, way to track billable time for clients, way to track projects, way to track crm info
PROSI love that the software does everything in one screen related to my ticket tracking system. I also like the quickbooks integration.
CONSIt takes a few more clicks to get around inside the software, also I don't like that there isn't a mobile app. Sure the site loads on mobile, but its clunky.

Excellent management tool for service desks.
Worth the investment for a medium sized service desk of 200 users.
PROSEasily integrated into existing networking environments. We implemented this as an on-premise solution and it worked very well to service and support our service desk in their daily support needs.
CONSThe tool fell down a little in agent management and would sometimes require more administration then the team could dedicate to it.

You get what you pay for, but a fraction of other PSAs
One feature that stands out above other PSAs is the rich text abilities of the ticketing system. I can send ticket updates with bold, italic, numbered or bullet lists, and several other options. It's a refreshing inclusion.
CONSBilling is a terrible, horrible, no good feature. You have to approve billing items, then create invoices, then go into each invoice and choose an invoice "template", then send them out to clients. There's too many silly steps.
