Find out in this report how the two Remote Monitoring and Management (RMM) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Avast as a product is as easy as it gets - everything is outlined and transparent in terms of licensing."
"It's not heavy on the system."
"The ease of deployment and the command center that they have are the most valuable. It is basically self-monitoring. It doesn't require that much tinkering after you deploy or install."
"It's straightforward to set up."
"The solution is easy to use."
"It has increased productivity. IT threats are kept at a minimum because of this product."
"The solution can scale well."
"Avast Business Endpoint Protection's best feature is its user-friendliness."
"Remote access and detailed monitoring help us support our equipment."
"The database is great. It's a nicely ordered database."
"Scripting and patch management are really important for us. Patch Manager is something that we use a lot, and we would love to have it continually improved. It is one of the most useful features for us for controlling patches and other things for different clients."
"The initial setup is easy and the deployment is quick."
"The implementation is nice and easy."
"It's a very good IT tool for a company that provides IT services. It is very helpful for technicians to work with the tool to see all of the customers in one place and then manage all of the computers in one place."
"It allows us to manage all client requests, jobs and invoicing."
"We use monitors to keep track of our machines. We use a pretty good portion of information from Automate."
"It should have proper and timely updates to deal with new viruses as they come onto the market."
"The solution could improve by providing more security."
"It could have a 10,000-feet overview of the whole infrastructure because the software is easily installable on the whole infrastructure and not just the infrastructure, but also the workstation themselves. I would love to have a 360 view of the whole network and basically see from where a test is coming, and if there is an instance in the cloud that is actually misbehaving or if there is a workstation that is infected and stuff like that. It can also have some kind of AI to detect all those things and then cut off the connection from that machine. In Cortex, you can link the logs, reports, and all that stuff. You can also see the full picture of when it happened, and you can trace it back all the way to a file or something else. I would like to see similar functionality in Avast Business Endpoint Protection."
"The solution needs to be more secure and work to protect us better from people trying to mess with our systems."
"I would like to see better protection and more spyware included with the free version."
"Making the price a bit cheaper would be an improvement."
"The accuracy of the scanner could be improved."
"It reduces network and bandwidth speed."
"The wait time for a support ticket to be addressed needs to be reduced. They take a couple of days to get back. It is a little frustrating when we have to wait for a couple of days. A lot of times, the issue is critical for us. If we're reaching out to their support team and submitting a ticket, it is because we need it handled quickly."
"This is a raw system. Of course, it has some flaws that could be improved. But, it's something that we will have to work with to get to the point where we need this, we request it and they do their best to make it happen."
"The fixed client for Automate is slow. The web client is not very intuitive."
"They could use some automated alerts particularly when we're talking about an MSP that might shoot over."
"Technical support was helpful."
"They always change the GUI to some dumb-down version of tiles which are more "user-friendly", but slows my team down in the end."
"Patching and reporting need improvements, especially reporting. The reporting engine is quite outdated, so you end up having to use your own dashboard."
"The project management needs improvement and there's a section of the product called configuration that also needs to be improved."
