ConnectWise Automate Is our Number One Tool
Likeliness to Recommend
What differentiates ConnectWise Automate from other similar products?
Connectwise Automate is able to offer way more features for a better price per agent. You can have different setups of the configuration, such as on premise environment or services as a service in the cloud. They have been around for a long time and their longevity is a great comfort.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
Being able to script tasks that would otherwise take much longer to try and push. They have a great scripting schedule and are able to have third party apps now. The patching has made us much more secure and effective at keeping the agents protected.
What do you dislike most about this product?
The updates do not seem to be released to often and we were hoping they would update the on-premise interface. Engineers have a hard time learning and then using all the features of automate. The cases from support have gotten stagnate at times and we have had to push them to get a resolution.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
Learn the best configuration settings before going live. Test with different setups if you can and see if they are producing what you are trying to achieve. Work with the connectwise support staff and take the courses in the university to get up to speed on using the product. Have your engineers pass some of the courses before you let them administrate it.
Pros
- Helps Innovate
- Reliable
- Inspires Innovation

A robust approach for remote monitoring
Likeliness to Recommend
What differentiates ConnectWise Automate from other similar products?
The package has features for remote PC administration and automated patching. It has displays built-in that give updates on the PCs. Automation makes it simple to administer computers in several settings at once as a maintained service vendor. To prevent the Computer from slipping to rest if users are connected, there is even a wake lock function.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
I enjoy the built-in programs in automation and the option to create commands to assist with recurring device upkeep. Routine maintenance can be and has been sped up by doing this. Can control, script, set up alerts, and do updates, patches, installations, and blocking all from a single location.
What do you dislike most about this product?
The RMM framework is very crucial, therefore users need a firm that is working to expand the business by providing excellent platform improvements and solutions that one can then provide to current and potential customers. Connectwise has only wanted to take as much money as possible from us and has no interest in doing business with us.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
The strength of this technology is its finest feature. You get authority and "WSUS" as elements of the bundle when we buy this package. The initiative is a superb robotic and remote access solution since it gathers data from each machine, has reported, offers some integration, and has all these features.
Pros
- Reliable
- Enables Productivity
- Trustworthy
- Respectful
