Pros

SS

Simon S.

System Admin and Account Manager

System Admin and Account Manager

Cons

“The network discovery feature could be better because it sometimes mislabels devices and doesn’t tell the difference between workstations and servers.”
MN

Manoj N.

Manager DevOps

“The biggest issue for us was that the product didn’t fully live up to how it’s marketed.”
BR

Bradley R.

IT Director

“Atera is not the stablest SaaS out there, Splashtop agent seldomly crashes and won’t let you connect to the computer 50-60% of the time. When it works it works like a charm but when it doesn’t work its really annoying.”
ST

Shaked T.

System Administrator

Cons

“Honestly, I cannot be certain that a support tech in another country will not pull an old client off the shelf and reuse.”
SL

Scott L.

IT Systems Administrator

“The cloud deployment was very slow when I set it up last year.”
