ConnectWise RMM: key features for MSPs

Having a remote monitoring and management (RMM) platform you can rely on is crucial to growing your MSP business. See how ConnectWise RMM can revolutionize the way your business grows and scales with these key features.

Intelligent automation

ConnectWise RMM is equipped with our proprietary automation engine, intelligent monitoring, helping partners see all insights and data from endpoints managed via the Asio platform.

Our intelligent alerting tech helps combine related events into a single ticket, making sure that MSP are only getting the alerts they absolutely need to see.  One of our partners managed to have 150-200 tickets autocleared each day using this method; read our case study with Epsilon, Inc to learn more.

Never worry about patch management again

ConnectWise RMM promotes proactive patch management. Our NOC (network operations center) tests and researches all Microsoft patch rollout, performing whitelisting and blacklisting to make sure risk is minimized and partners can push out patches in confidence.

24/7 Support via NOC

While your team is scaling up, your clients may need support you can’t provide on your own. Our NOC, which RMM partners can purchase separately with a do-it-for-you approach, provides 24/7/365 support in the following key areas:

• Monitoring
• Troubleshooting
• Issue resolution

With your NOC as an extension of your team, your staff can focus on the work that’s going to drive growth and revenue.

Drive ROI through ease-of-use

ConnectWise RMM helps MSPs achieve unified monitoring and management through their “one source of truth,” and perhaps most importantly, drives ROI by doing so.

Our RMM partners start with an alert-tuning experience to help reduce reactive tickets early in the process. In addition, between the ease-of-use of the system and the ability to add on NOC services, your team can get more accomplished without any added effort.
