Likelihood to Recommend Atera is suitable for controlling and automating digital processes such as supplier and customer management. It is less useful when you need to integrate with other operating systems; I prefer to use it individually. Overall, Atera is fantastic and reliable automation software.
Read full review Panda Systems Management is well suited for small to medium sized organizations looking for a tool to centralize asset management not only physical but also assist with rapid deployment of patches, applications, etc. It proves also to be very beneficial as permits (to and extent) to do troubleshooting without interfering or interrupting end users.
Read full review Pros Remoting in from anywhere, even on my phone or tablet, has enabled me to quickly diagnose, or even fully resolve, problems. The ticketing, once users are set up, is a breeze. It also keeps everything in one place for them. With Atera the need to travel on-site has been dramatically reduced. Read full review Remote access. It's as good as any other on the market. It also allows for RDP connections which is a nice feature. Inventory management. We get some great insight from the reports we can run. Quick Jobs. If there's an app or service you use, there may be a quick job to install and update it remotely. Read full review Cons Some basic functions need some extra work Some basic things are behind paywalls Feature board is not credible. Ideas taking very, very long to implement Atera has no clear road map SNMP monitoring needs a make over and needs more options Read full review Licensing. With the possibility of monthly splitting Integration with firewalls even outside the corporate network Read full review Likelihood to Renew As of right now, we have found nothing that can offer as many features as Atera does along with the affordability. They are doing monthly releases each month and not just making small changes (shared scripting library, chocolatey support, Install packages, Splashtop SOS support, Scheduled tickets to name a few). The uptimes are great and accessibility to the dashboard has yet to be limited. We are a happy customer and bordering on fanboy status now

It has saved us a lot of time. Atera's overall usability is excellent. It helps us manage our tasks remotely. Thanks to the reports' easy customization and highly adaptable reporting structure, insightful information is obtained, and significant time is saved in our business process.
Read full review Support Rating Atera support provides answers to my questions lightning fast. They have never left me feeling like I'm out there on my own. I can ask questions by email, or by chat, or by opening a ticket with them and they are always on it quickly. They also have a forum where other Atera users can help you if you need it, and you can also add feature requests via the forum.
Read full review We rate and recommend Panda Systems Management not only because it is a very effective and very cost effective solution that pays itself for us (ROI) extremely fast, but also due to all reason described previously and possibly a few more I'm sure we missed here. I do have to says tech support for this solution sometimes leave a bit to be desired.
Read full review Alternatives Considered It is live in our organization and it works along with Atera in our organization, however I have more trust on Atera due to its stability and ruggedness, so Atera is the only choice most of the IT dept works on. I would not comment on the ManageEngine PAM solution as I have less experience on it.
Read full review Panda is a bit of a greatest hits between some of these other things. I feel like GoToAssist has a stronger remote support option, but Panda is more convenient. Kaseya has a ton of features, but from an ease of use standpoint, Panda seems stronger.
Spiceworks has a fine inventory system but it lacks features. I added Azure as well since we are a 365 shop and Azure supplies a lot of the same visibility that Panda does. However it is a completely different animal, and it's way easier to hop into Panda and get what you need than get waaay more data than necessary from Azure/Azure AD/ATP.
Read full review Return on Investment The intuitive user interface has enabled both users and support technicians to familiarize themselves quickly with the functionality, and the learning curve is less. Some features need to be accessed through documentation; they're not available directly on the dashboard. Sometimes, internet access plays a significant role, whereas low connectivity is a hindrance.
