Atera vs. SuperOps.ai

Atera is doing well in the monitoring part as it is informing the real time ping of running devices and if any device goes down, it is informing us on the real time. It is helping us to monitor the last reboot status, current logged in users, time zone, IP addresses and other things so that we can track our end devices status. In the patching part Atera is pathing our all devices with the notification stating user to restart device at their convenient time. It is also patching our third party applications. It is good in installing and uninstalling of the third party application but limited to availability in the Atera inventory. Atera is not good in some parts such as in the patching part of applications, sometime it fails to update all 3rd party applications that were not installed via Atera. It is not good if you have to transfer a file to multiple systems at the same time.

SuperOps.ai is positioned to be and continues to move itself in ways to be the best MSP platform available. Their PSA is so easy to work with it could easily reach past the IT industry as a service delivery platform for nearly any other vertical utilizing service professionals. SuperOps.ai doesn't work well for companies requiring complex tax assessment and calculations like telcos. They are slated to address this in the near future. (Written in 07/2024)

• Atera does not yet have a MDM system, but I have been told that it is in the works!
• Sometimes getting around the admin section of the IT side of Atera can be tricky, but the webinars and chat support help.
• Many of the demo and onboarding agents are based in Israel, so it can be a challenge to find available times during the day while living in the United States.

• Unreliable uptime – Frequent outages disrupt operations.
• Poor support – Slow response times and unhelpful assistance.
• Limited integrations – Lacks compatibility with key third-party tools.
• Buggy interface – Glitches make navigation frustrating and inefficient.
• Downtime all the time

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

Atera's remote monitoring feature is one of it's best features. The laptops and servers we used it on responded quickly to our administrative task requests and made our work light. We were able to increase the resources, manage patches, windows updates and quite a few other tasks remotely and that too 24×7.

In my opinion, SuperOps.ai is unreliable and inefficient. I feel frequent downtime makes it impossible to access critical data, and when issues arise, support is slow and unhelpful. In our case, we repeatedly requested access to backups, but they failed to provide a solution, leaving our business paralyzed during outages. Instead of streamlining operations, I believe it created more problems and wasted our time.

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.

The implementation was performed by the system administrator so I don't have much insight into this

Because Atera is a much more effective and efficient solution to manage all our IT operations, it automates each of our business processes. It offers us the best support to respond to any problem that may arise. I think Atera is much more cost-effective and reliable; its value is justified with each function and satisfies all our business needs and requirements.
