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 most valuable features of the solution are its ability to offer control remotely to its users and provide patching capabilities to users."
"Administration, maintenance, patching, monitoring, and helpdesk are the most valuable features."
"The patch management and the remote support are very good, especially the remote support. There is a module built into the solution which allows remote control without necessarily interrupting the user. We could manage things in the background without them seeing or interacting with anything, which is a very useful feature."
"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."
"Being able to connect to client computers without them necessarily needing to be there and being able to put in the patches and manage different information systems is valuable."
"Patch management was very useful. Backdoor access to the clients was also very useful."
"When compared to what we were previously using, one of the most appealing features is that it combines remote control, patch management, and software management into a single portal."
"Provides efficient automation."
"The antivirus feature is valuable as it notifies us of infections and allows us to address them promptly."
 

Cons

"It's very difficult to update the third-party software on every device."
"The management of patches also needs improvement."
"The stability of the solution is good but it can be improved."
"The solution is hard to use at first until you understand how it works."
"Setting up VSA is difficult. I'm still not done configuring it."
"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."
"Its scripting language kind of sucked. They have their own version of PowerShell inside VSA. if you want to reach out and grab endpoint information, for instance, to know how many end devices have a program installed, you actually have to write a script for that. It wasn't like how it is in CrowdStrike where you can just do a search, and it just happened. In VSA, you have to write your own script to do it. In terms of new features, an integrated MDM for mobile devices would be awesome."
"Our main concern is related to security. Kaseya had a ransomware attack a few months ago, and it was a big concern for us because Kaseya was the main RMM tool that we were using. We faced a lot of difficulties accessing our users and systems. So, security is our main concern."
"N-able N-sight should improve its console functionality."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Licensing is available on a yearly basis and is priced per node."
"The solution's pricing is reasonable."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"I think it costs more than ManageEngine."
"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."
"We were looking at a price of $22.50 cents per user."
"We spend around 3500 rands monthly for services covering seven servers and approximately 150 machines. However, maintenance and support require an additional cost."
