We use Kaseya VSA to manage workstation/server endpoint software, updates, reboot cycles, and use it for remote connectivity - interactive desktop/files. We've also found great value is VSA's ability to update/manage/deploy applications very quickly and seamlessly using pre-defined application lists. However, one of the best features is the ability to execute remote commands - powershell or Windows CMD, quietly, remotely. This is a very powerful feature to use, especially when troubleshooting.

We have predominately used Kaseya to serve the purpose of mass software deployment, patching, and retrieving information on workstations and endpoints. We have used this across the spectrum company-wide for all of our locations and devices. It has allowed us much more flexibility and efficiency in our interactions with our endpoints and users.

We use Kaseya VSA as our jack-of-all-trades RMM platform for all of our clients. Kaseya VSA makes it very easy to manage multiple workstations and servers all within a single-pane of glass. Kaseya VSA helps us save a lot of time that would be otherwise wasted by helping our techs automate repetitive tasks.

Kaseya VSA allows us to monitor workstations and servers and gives us quick access to remote sessions to troubleshoot.

Currently we are using Virtual Systems Administrator (VSA) primarily for the IT Department. We are using it as a means to connect with our assets whether they are in our network or being used by staff working from home. With COVID-19 many workers are now primarily working from home and it is not possible for our IT department (3 staff including myself) to make house calls to troubleshoot and repair our laptops that are being used. A bonus of this application is that we are also able to push out updates to the systems remotely on or off the network, before this wasn't possible as the systems had to connected to our network in order for us to push them out. This package has allowed us to consolidate 2 programs down to one.

We are an MSP and use Kaseya VSA to monitor and manage our entire client base. It provides our techs with an integrated set of tools for anti-virus and anti-malware, a range of backup applications, patch management, and the creation and implementation of policies. We are able to automate many of the typical tasks performed by a technician and support a larger customer base effectively.

We have been using Kaseya VSA as the backbone of our managed services business for almost 10 years. We were looking for an industry leader that supported a variety of technology platforms. Our team of 15 technicians use it daily to support almost 3,000 endpoints. We leverage patch management, scheduled procedures, monitoring, and remote access to assist our clients with all their technology needs. Integrated antivirus and backup solutions give us a central point of management. I can't imagine how we would be an MSP without it.

Kaseya VSA was used by my company to remotely monitor our products that were installed in various locations around the world. It was mainly used by the engineering team for monitoring the test sites, manufacturing (which is what I was doing) monitoring our production test site, and by the field service team to monitor customer sites.

Kaseya in the role of system administration helps us to manage all our user's computers around all our local and remote locations and keep full control over administrator permission for the end-users technical support. It also helps us with massive deployments of software and also with deploying several administration tools we use as a standard in the company.

We have utilized many platforms over the years and none have quite been as solid as Kaseya. Not to say there are not issues, but among the competition, we have found repeatedly that Kaseya takes a competitive edge. For example, it integrates with a large library of vendors, the support is decent (which for this market, is a win) and the product overvalue is fantastic.

We use VSA for a few things. We use it to push out malware and anti-virus to all of our clients. This includes automatic definition updates for these programs. We also use the live connect feature. We have software that requires USB dongles for the software to be recognized as licensed. Through RDP, these dongles do not work. Using live connect, we can access the software.

We currently use Kaseya VSA throughout our company to manage all of our systems. Kaseya VSA gives us the ability to control when Windows updates are applied. The benefit is that end users are not affected by updates during normal working hours. Kaseya VSA allows us to fully manage all aspects of our end-users systems.

VSA is our primary monitoring and remote access system. It allows us to manage servers and workstations as well as remotely connect. This is used by myself and my service team daily. It addresses the obvious problem as an MSP of managing devices and assisting end users. VSA also assist with creating reports that are used to review hardware with clients.

We use Kaseya VSA for patch rollouts for Windows systems, scripts to keep computers optimized and clean and to perform routine tasks and onboarding, and gathering information regarding system configuration. All of our 6 techs use it all day.

Our IT department uses Kaseya VSA to support users throughout our company in our nearly 20 locations across the country. We can do more with Kaseya VSA than if we were physically seated at the machine and can complete nearly any operation silently without disturbing the users or disrupting productivity.

We use Kaseya to manage workstations around the world with a very lean IT helpdesk staff. We use it to remote into a user's workstation to install or configure new capabilities. We use Kaseya to push software packages to individual workstations, sites, or globally.

We run reports on software installs, user utilization, etc.
