Lightweight tool aids in remote management but needs better support
Primarily, we are using it for remote monitoring and management as an MSP. We are basically a reseller; we are a service provider, so Kaseya VSA is one of our tools which we use for our managed services The best features of Kaseya VSA are that it's lightweight over the machine and does not create…

Console enhancements needed for better driver updates and registry checks with prompt antivirus alerts
N-able N-sight should improve its console functionality. It lacks features for updating drivers, clearing up storage, and conducting registry checks from the console. Additionally, it should provide more detailed notifications and instructions for addressing deployment issues. The system should also allow for remote resolution of issues rather than requiring physical access to the machines.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The product has allowed the company to provide faster service, which means higher customer satisfaction because when we do our jobs faster and more efficiently, the customer is happier."
"VSA installs an agent on every computer that allows users to create a help desk ticket with one click. That's why I chose VSA. Many users never create tickets when they have a problem. Sometimes I won't know about an issue until they run into me and say, "Hey, this has been broken for two months.""
"The most valuable part of this solution is the security features that it offers."
"The most valuable part of this solution is the security features that it offers."
"I like the remote control, audit, inventory, patch management, software management, and monitoring features."
"As a small IT shop, the weird feature that the VSA has that I have not found anywhere else is they have these little colored dots that tell you the status of the machine. Is it offline and powered up? Is it actively being used? Is it idle? A lot of our clients ask us to do things for them, but, of course, they don't really want us to be underfoot. So we always look for, "Hey, there's an idle machine. We can work on that one now." And to say it makes it easy, we can do that at a glance. In any other tool we've looked at, you have to go several layers deep to see if the machine is in use, and you could spend your entire day just trying to find a machine that was idle, whereas, with Kaseya VSA, you can tell at a glance."
"The best features of Kaseya VSA are that it's lightweight over the machine and does not create any overhead over the machine resources, which we really appreciate."
"We are a managed IT service provider, so we get more benefits when we use Kaseya."
"The antivirus feature is valuable as it notifies us of infections and allows us to address them promptly."
 

Cons

"The way it is laid out can be improved. If it could be a little more intuitive, it might be a little bit easier."
"The solution is hard to use at first until you understand how it works."
"The main difference would be the addition of audio transfer between the end-user and the remote connectivity software. That is the one critical piece that we are currently lacking."
"There should be more Mac support. Whenever a new Mac operating system comes out, the support is very limited. It takes them a while to get things up to date. We're seeing more and more people move to Mac from the Windows environment for various reasons, but their support for Mac is very limited. A lot of it might have to do with Mac itself, but there are ways to improve upon that. That would be my biggest thing for improvement."
"Kaseya VSA could be improved with more features to support the latest operating systems."
"Sometimes, the product misinterprets the functionality of a machine."
"The initial setup is quite difficult as the allow port, everything is quite difficult, and especially you need to get the SSL to use if you use it for on-premises."
"Kaseya VSA could be improved with more features to support the latest operating systems."
"N-able N-sight should improve its console functionality."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We pay a monthly fee, but it's a three-year contract divided by 36. They don't offer a true SaaS plan where you can add licenses monthly as you go. The cost is $7 per person per month, and we are paying about $1,700 a month."
"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."
"Though I don't have complete visibility over the solution's pricing, the solution is not cheap, from what I remember. The solution is on the pricey end."
"With the on-prem, you buy the agent license. That's a one-time fee, and it varies depending on how many you have. You also pay annual maintenance on the number that you have. So, there are two fees involved: a one-time fee and a recurring fee."
"We were looking at a price of $22.50 cents per user."
"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."
"Licensing is available on a yearly basis and is priced per node."
"We spend around 3500 rands monthly for services covering seven servers and approximately 150 machines. However, maintenance and support require an additional cost."
