    We moved to NinjaOne because it covered everything ConnectWise RMM couldn't. Compared to the other two, I think ConnectWise RMM is on par. So we chose NinjaOne to be more progressive, as we felt the product was ahead of the market in innovation.

    I felt this was the best solution due to the price and integration with our psa.

    Datto RMM's web portal and interface are much better and easier to use, especially on mobile devices. Connectwise RMM integrates better with Connectwise products, such as Manage, and you can launch it directly from tickets, which is why we use it.

    These are pretty comparable and we are still looking to stay with automate for now, with what we think better all around tools we use.

    We are not a fan of Kaseya's business practices and have moved away from them. We find ConnectWise fairer and easier to work with. Automate was our long-term RMM. RMM deeply simplifies scripting and access. The web version of LabTech was very clunky, and we experienced frequent …

    ScreenConnect and RMM are two totally different platforms We did not try any other competitive RMM software out their because of the history of using ConnectWise's software. We have never have had any issues with their software so we started using RMM right out of the box and …

    Having evaluated and used other platforms, ConnectWise is above the rest in the market. Having the additional tools for patch management, reporting, Dashboard is key to running the help desk for our company. The ability to run scripts and support the end-user is key and …

    Automate (LabTech) would be the aforementioned "heavy-duty" kind of RMM tool. It's big, it's complex, and very capable compared to Continuum Command. That said, the impetus is very much on the service provider to configure and maintain nearly 100% of the product, whereas in …

    The one thing we liked about over the two listed above were the "all in one" solution, and how Continuum keeps moving to include items other than just RMM, they really are striving to be a solutions provider for managed IT companies. I have mentioned before, the ability to put …

    At the time that we were testing out LabTech, it was slightly cheaper BUT lacked many of the features, such as live human support and NOC. Everything depended on scripts fixing the issues. What if the scripts fail? Well, then it's on you to figure out why and fix it. No help …

    It did some things well, but it also struggled with some areas, as mentioned. It covered most of the core functions you would expect from an RMM, but it didn't really go above and beyond. I also found that it wasn't innovative enough for my liking, so it would be hard to really recommend this to someone considering what else is out there.

    Pros
    ConnectWise
    • Grouping/Reporting: static organization as well as dynamically and quickly getting inventory and other machine-based information
    • Out-sourced teams do a good job of handling small things without much input as long as you are clear and concise.
    • Patching is likely the best thing about their platform. Windows patch testing is actually performed in house and they make recommendations for you. Allowing you to push through patches if you know someone needs something. But this is a major task that very few if anyone else does.

    Cons
    ConnectWise
    • Cost is always an issue for a small IT company like mine.
    • Some automation processes are not included in this software pack which then leads us to purchase my services from ConnectWise RMM
    • Risk analysis reports would be a great tool to have even though it has some capabilities the customization is difficult and confusing

    Usability
    ConnectWise
    It is not that intuitive to use and requires some learning about what the buttons do and where everything is placed. Even after learning what everything does, it is not that customizable; it sometimes feels like fighting the RMM rather than doing work.

    We are not a fan of Kaseya's business practices and have moved away from them. We find ConnectWise fairer and easier to work with. Automate was our long-term RMM. RMM deeply simplifies scripting and access. The web version of LabTech was very clunky, and we experienced frequent problems with the app. We have been using RMM for the better part of a year and have not experienced any issues that prevent access to the platform so far.

    Return on Investment
    ConnectWise
    • Command package from ConnectWise fits mostly with our objectives for our clients in a day to day operations.
    • BDR Package is a great platform to manage Disaster Recover options - Sometimes hard to understand the billing options and plans
    • NOC services for the servers are the best. Support is on top of the server for anything needed.
