Auvik SaaS Management (ASM) Pros review quotes

We can understand and get full visibility into what end-users are using. Most organizations can list off the top five apps that they use but, lo and behold, we're able to discover that there are 30 or 40 apps in use within the organization that nobody knew about.

The most valuable features are application monitoring and reporting. I like putting all the filters on the report to get the desired results. Reporting is one of the essential features we use, depending on what is required. I run it monthly or quarterly. We have some reports scheduled to run monthly to track new applications coming in. We're good at going through them and classifying them.

The license monitoring and management capabilities probably top the list of most valuable features in terms of everyday day utility. You can go to customers and say, "You have 100 licenses of Office 365 E3, but you only use 95, so we can adjust your licensing and save you some money."

The ability to see what accounts and services are being accessed at any given time is valuable, and that's also true for most of my clients. Another good use is time management. If one of my clients asks me, "Hey, how long is John accessing Dropbox throughout the day?" I can do that with Auvik SaaS Management. Auvik SaaS Management can give me a report on the usage of a single user.

When we offboard an employee, we know which applications that employee used. For example, let's say Bob left the company, but we don't know all the applications he used. We can run a report showing everything Bob accessed, giving us some leverage to go back to the client and say, "Hey, these are all the applications he used. We manage these, and you still need to take care of these." It gives us expectations to provide to our clients.

Auvik SaaS Management gives us the tools to classify the applications from a management standpoint. It also provides an overview of when various software might be up for renewal on an agreement.

We use the solution to track unauthorized apps our employees use so we can talk to them or block the apps at the firewall if needed. More importantly, we track shared credentials and services employees access on company devices, especially when someone's leaving. If someone had access to a shared account, which we try to avoid, but if there was one with a logged-in password, we can change it when we off-board the employee or shut down their account.

The most valuable feature is the identification of the various user names used to log into apps that are critical in terms of data security.

They've started working on integrations with other platforms for sharing data across other tools that are commonly used in the industry. I'd like to see that continue to improve. They do have to make the integrations deeper.

The web portal isn't very intuitive, especially for me. I struggle while creating permissions to allow clients to do the portal. It was a little tricky, but I was able to contact people from Auvik SaaS Management, and they helped me.

The reporting is excellent, but it could always be better. Sometimes we'd like the reports to be in different formats. Auvik SaaS Management could also be better integrated with some of our other tools. It's like an island unto itself, but we're an Autotask shop. We use Datto RMM and Autotask PSA. It'd be great to see Auvik SaaS Management alerts in our Autotask tools.

Integration with macOS and Apple devices could be better. I believe this is something they're working on, but it needs a little more work.

Before Auvik bought Saaslio, we struggled with the single sign-on because it would sign you off quickly. I would be presenting to my clients on the software or categorizing, like, "Hey, what is this app used for?" When I was inside Saaslio, it would kick me out, so I would have to log back in.

The user interface and some of the application classification features could be improved. I'd love the ability to bulk-edit some of the applications.

One area for improvement in the tool , which they said might be on the roadmap, is better integration of features like tagging product owners, leaving notes, and setting statuses such as pending review, approved, deployed, etc. I want to use the product to write notes under an application, like when people start using the Brave Browser, and tag Billy Bob, who manages it. I want a report showing all the products Billy Bob owns, along with associated notes, so I can discuss everything with him in one meeting. Currently, I have to click on each application individually and copy and paste notes elsewhere, which isn't efficient.

They're working on Auvik's ability to detect when people are using multifactor authentication, but some more automation in that area would be nice.
