Purchased Datto RMM to manage 500 endpoints.
  • Agent installs quickly
In my experience, Datto RMM has failed at almost everything. This solution inconsistent at everything. For the price, I think this should be a premium solution with the onboarding and support to match.

In my opinion, you will get none of that. I think, just go with something else and save the money and stress.

We use Datto RMM for most our client's systems management. This tool allows us to monitor and connect to remote client systems to update and maintain as needed.
  • Remotely view servers and end users systems and specifications.
  • Remotely apply updates and instllations for servers and end user systems.
  • Connect to user sessions for servers and end users systems.
It is a great tool for end systems management and monitoring. It has generally served well and can assist inmanaginf the devices for multiple clients / sites as needed. Remote control software leave alot to be desired and can be greatlly improved. Great for creating systems policies and providing basic end systems management.

Datto: great price, great features, but agent software can be unstable

We use Datto for a variety of tools. The most used feature is remote access to their machines for troubleshooting. We also use it as an inventory tool, a remote scripting tool, and a simple data gathering. This really helps us get away from using a local AD server for pushing out changes to the machine since the machines simply need the agent installed and an internet connection.
  • Script jobs are easy to write up and quick to push out.
  • It gathers a lot of data regarding the machine.
Very well suited for MSPs, which is where we are being allowed to use it from. Quite cheap compared to some competitors, too. It's an all-around useful tool for managing your users and their machines for keeping things up to date, tracking specs, and troubleshooting.

Great RMM tool for fast resolutions to issues.

We use Datto RMM to monitor and interact with our client's workstations, servers, and network equipment. Datto RMM provides diagnostic and evaluative reporting tools and also provides tools for immediate remote support for technical issues. Having these tools and access to their workstations saves time and leads to faster case resolution.
  • Remote connection options
  • Reporting
  • Remote tools available
  • Visibility
I use Datto RMM extensively every single day. The RMM agent console has the following tools: 1) Take a screenshot of the users' display. 2) Access the services 3) VNC remote 4) RDP remote 5) command prompt, power shell prompt 6) Restart/Power 7) detailed use reporting 8) access to the files on the device 8) registry editor access 9) run quick jobs 10) Event viewer 11) Splashtop remote access 12) drive/disk information 13) a web remote access tool There are even more than I listed. It is an incredibly valuable tool that allows us to support our customers and go beyond expectations. Scenario 1) A local user is locked out of their windows computer, but it is on and connected to the internet. Solution: I used the command prompt tool in the RMM, which has Supervisor level access, and was able to use the net user tools and reset the user's password and unlock their account. Scenario 2) A user is moving to a new device and needs certain software. Solution: we have the installer files on the server. I used the RMM, connected to the client's new workstation, and uploaded the installer files to her desktop. I connected via one of the remote tools and was able to install the software.

The most simple and scalable RMM in the market

Datto RMM is our main LOB application. It's used across the whole organization, mainly by the technical department but also by the accounts and sales teams for reporting and asset management purposes. Datto RMM is purely designed for MSPs with automation and scaling in mind, as it allows to apply of every policy or job to devices across all the managed sites.
  • Monitoring
  • Patch Management
  • Remote control
  • Scripting management
Datto RMM is a great tool for MSPs of all sizes. Its design allows for scalability and it's been built with automation in mind.

It does a great job with patch management for Microsoft as well as with 3rd party apps.

Datto's ComStore is updated regularly with new components which allow application installation and uninstallation, monitoring and other pre-packed scripts. The best part is it will allow for anyone with only basic scripting knowledge to achieve great results automation-wise.

Steer clear of Datto products and services

We migrated to Datto after their purchase of Open Mesh. We were in need of an RMM solution and their one-stop approach seemed to be a good fit. We have dozens of clients across industries with a combined 3,000 users. Our goal was the integration of all Datto products and services throughout the client base. We were trying to standardize products across clients and having a decent experience with the Open Mesh team and their product leading up to the merger, it seemed like a natural fit.
  • Sales calls and sales engineers
  • ALTO Backup solution was decent
  • A few support reps were helpful
Datto is probably suited best for providers that are starting out or don't care much about client satisfaction. Hardware failures should be the exception, not the rule. It is the other way around with Datto products. They have horrible support and management [in my experience] and really don't want to solve any problems. I used their File Protection service as well as their Workplace service, both were abysmal failures [in my opinion]. The file protection failed within two weeks of installation and could never be resolved. Workplace worked 50% of the time, the app crashed the other 50% of the time. New Dell PowerEdge with Windows 2019 so no, the hardware was not an issue.
