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.
Jijin Joseph - PeerSpot reviewer
An MDM solution for controlling and restricting data on devices
Everyone is using high-end devices, such as mobile devices. If they lose their devices, how about the data copied to other devices? Once the device is lost, you can remotely delete all of the data and block the device, preventing anyone from using or reusing it. This will keep your devices secure.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We have all the necessary modules for monitoring on the server and workstations."
"The remote support is the most valuable aspect of the solution."
"Regarding the patching and software management, for me, it's the best path."
"The training that we received was quite good."
"The most valuable piece of the puzzle for me is what they call Live Connect. It is the piece that allows you to support an end-user without having to take the keyboard and mouse."
"Kaseya VSA's best features are auditing and reporting."
"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."
"The most valuable features of this solution are automation, inventory, and patch management."
"Scalefusion is easy to use, and they have a broad knowledge base, so you can quickly find answers if you're unsure how to do something. The articles on the knowledge base are well-written, with clear steps on what to do for a specific scenario. That part is well documented."
"Its enhanced support for iOS and Windows devices has been particularly beneficial, expanding our service offerings to customers with diverse device environments."
 

Cons

"We actually upgraded the solution due to the fact that we needed the support for Apple devices. We haven't had a chance to test that part of the product just yet, however, that was our biggest criticism of the product prior to this most recent update."
"The predefined reports are not up to the mark and you have to do a lot of customization."
"Some configurations and abilities from the system are not of use. The solution should offer webinars or some sort of training offerings to help users learn what the system can do and how it can be done."
"The product's user interface is an area with certain shortcomings where improvements are required."
"The reporting feature in Kaseya VSA could improve by being more user-friendly. The reporting overview is too wordy or the representation can be better."
"I believe we should include a VSA license to provide complete endpoint management."
"The solution is hard to use at first until you understand how it works."
"One area that could be improved is the documentation, which often contains errors that prevent you from following along, especially during migrations."
"It could be easier to put devices on the blocklist. I would like the ability to block a device with a click of a button. Currently, we have to sift through different groups to block a device. It would be nice if Scalefusion allowed me to block without moving the device to a different profile. Another helpful feature they could add is the ability to migrate from one MDM to another. I'd also appreciate more extensive cloud storage. They give you 1 GB by default, but sometimes that's not enough."
"One area for improvement could be streamlining permissions during initial device setup, especially for corporate-owned devices, to reduce manual user interaction and expedite deployment."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"I think it costs more than ManageEngine."
"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."
"Kaseya's come down in pricing when I compare it to TeamViewer or other cheaper RMMs like LogMeIn."
"It is, in my opinion, competitive in the market. It is determined by the number of users and licenses needed. Depending on the license count of users, the price ranges from $10 to $80 USD."
"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."
"The pricing is quite good and we are satisfied with it."
"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."
