Overall Satisfaction with Atera

Atera is used for MSP services. It is a fantastic product. I really have not had any issues with it in three years. The remote access to clients through Atera is fast and reliable. It is the feature I use most. The ability to use scripting to create automated tasks really helps. They have a library of hundreds of scripts you can use as examples or just to plain use. Notifications are very adjustable. Thresholds for the notifications are easily changed as well. I have contacted Atera and even had a Zoom meeting with them in Israel. They are very nice. Very responsive. I do recommend this product highly. Before Atera I used Zenith product, Solar Winds and many others. Atera is by far, better.
  • Remote access for technicians.
  • Remote access for home users.
  • Automation of tasks.
  • Dashboard is simple to read with a good amount of information on it.
  • I would say custom reporting.
  • Mobile app is difficult to use effectively on a screen smaller than 10.1"
  • Workstation automation for maintenance has been great. A real selling feature.
  • The product combined with a anti-virus add-on is a great value to clients.
I feel like I have a good grasp on the status of my clients all the time. When they complain about Internet dropouts, I put availability monitoring on the client workstation or server and in a few days you have a graph you can show them of uptime. That has been perceived by clients as a great service.
I only use Atera for MSP services. I don't use the billing nor invoices.
I have used, The Zenith product (Continuum), Solar Winds, GFI and Level Platforms. Continuum was a good product but no longer exists.

Navisite Productivity and Collaboration (Microsoft Office 365 and MDM)
I use Atera for small businesses. between 2 and 50 workstations and a handful of servers. This really is the sweet spot. You don't get inundated with tickets if setup properly. The choices of add on products like anti-virus give a complete package for the client that is affordable.
