Has indicators that tell us if a machine is idle, in use, powered off, etc.
The unique thing I like most about Kaseya VSA is the quick indicators that tell us if a machine is idle, in use, powered off, etc. This allows us to handle client tasks when their machine is idle. We're currently migrating from Kaseya VSA nine to ten. Nine's automation capabilities don't exist, which is the main reason we're upgrading to ten.
Babawale Awojinrin - PeerSpot reviewer
Allows the incorporation of systems and integration of remote systems
The initial setup is straightforward and requires three to five minutes. It starts with determining the PC's architecture (64-bit or 32-bit), leading the user to know which version to download. Additionally, there are a number of factors that need to be considered like the number of technical users for remote access, the number of remote locations, and storage requirements. These factors will guide the user license purchase. We should always factor in costs, and there's potential for offering more accessible pricing, especially in markets like Africa and developing countries, given their business environment. On the other hand, there have been challenges stemming from the transition; the previous owners used a free tool like NGINX for remote operations. Transitioning to a paid remote tool is driven by security and enhanced features.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The solution was scalable."
"We have all the necessary modules for monitoring on the server and workstations."
"The remote management is quite good. Also, the patch management and service desk are great features of the solution."
"I like the remote control, audit, inventory, patch management, software management, and monitoring features."
"The most valuable part of this solution is the security features that it offers."
"Regarding the patching and software management, for me, it's the best path."
"Patch management was very useful. Backdoor access to the clients was also very useful."
"The unique thing I like most about Kaseya VSA is the quick indicators that tell us if a machine is idle, in use, powered off, etc. This allows us to handle client tasks when their machine is idle."
"Almost all the features are valuable to me, like the scalable feature and its highly interactive software."
"The most recent enhancements are quite remarkable."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is Remote Access."
"The product helps us efficiently fix technical issues and maintain system downtime."
"We use the product to communicate."
"The most valuable feature is the ease of use. Using this solution enables us to get support easily."
"The product is very stable."
"The remote access is most valuable."
 

Cons

"The deployment process could be better."
"I believe we should include a VSA license to provide complete endpoint management."
"The technical support of the solution is an area with shortcomings that needs improvement."
"Kaseya VSA could be improved with more features to support the latest operating systems."
"It's very difficult to update the third-party software on every device."
"One area that could be improved is the documentation, which often contains errors that prevent you from following along, especially during migrations."
"Sometimes, the product misinterprets the functionality of a machine."
"The agent-based monitoring solution can be improved."
"There are some challenges with compatibility."
"There should be an enterprise version of the solution."
"I would rate the stability a seven out of ten because every application gets bugs. So, there are some instances where it might be buggy and hanging."
"One of the defects that I have noticed with TeamViewer Remote Management is that if I am on a certain version and the person to whom I am connected is not on the same version, then it does not connect at times until I update the solution."
"VPN connection is an area with shortcomings that need improvement in the solution."
"I have contacted customer service and support a couple of times, but it was not good."
"The compatibility needs improvement in TeamViewer Remote Management because there's some incompatibility in some versions of the solution. Some solutions require the higher-performing version of TeamViewer Remote Management. Otherwise, there's incompatibility. The security provided by TeamViewer Remote Management in terms of data transfer also needs improvement. I'd like to see more features in the next release of TeamViewer Remote Management because it's still lacking in features. It would also be good for TeamViewer Remote Management to have a built-in remoting program similar to what Itarian has."
"The price for the license could be improved, as well as the setup could be easier."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I find Kaseya VSA's pricing extraordinarily expensive, with very limiting contracts. They discuss being flexible once you're locked in, but I haven't found that true. It is one of the most expensive tools in my arsenal and our highest expense to any company."
"Kaseya VSA can be described as a fairly priced product."
"The dollar exchange rate in Brazil is very high, so the price should be better for our country."
"Without the managed antivirus, it was about $2,000 a month for the team. It's quite reasonable in that sense. The industry standard is anywhere from $0.90 to $1.10 per endpoint for antivirus, depending on how many you have, so it was fairly priced."
"It depends on what products you want. Kaseya loves packages, and if you are packaging, it is more affordable. If you're not packaging, it tends to be a little bit more expensive than others."
"You're going to pay for this solution, but you're going to get so much more out of it in reporting, asset management, and the ability to manage your clients. I would recommend giving Kaseya serious consideration and I would recommend implementing it."
"We use annual licensing, but we also have a special agreement."
"It is not expensive. Anyone can afford it. Most of the time, we get a discount for licenses. We had about 5,000 agents, and we received a discount on the price. There is only the licensing cost. If you use the on-prem version, you also have the infrastructure cost."
"I have used the free version of the solution."
"The solution relies on cloud-based infrastructure so the price is tailored to each individual model used"
"The license is procured on a yearly basis and is expensive. The license is procured on a yearly basis and is expensive."
"There are no charges to be paid for the solution since I use it for personal use."
"Addition services could be lower priced."
"Our licenses for TeamViewer Remote Management are being managed directly by our procurement team. If we need more licenses they handle it."
"My company needs to pay towards the solution's annual licensing subscription costs. There are no extra costs in addition to the standard license fees of the product."
"It is a licensed product."
