SolarWinds patch management has had issues over the years. Sometimes requiring manual intervention to get resolved. The UI [with N-able RMM (formerly Solarwinds RMM)] makes it easy to see status of systems and identify any alerts easily. Remotely monitoring the status of servers/computers. Managing the systems, patching, systems maintenance and remote support.

It's fantastic for anyone who needs to manage a large number of remote users' hardware. It gives such great visibility into hardware and software. You can remotely access pretty much anything on a computer, from event logs to PowerShell to the computer's serial number. If you're looking for a simple remote desktop or inventory, this might be overkill, and there are better options in those markets. However, if you are looking for a Swiss army knife of remote computer management, this is as good as it gets.

Pros
  • Thanks to RMM I never feel like I'm unaware as to what's going on in my network. I can be in the office or half a country away and feel completely aware of what's going on.
  • We've had numerous situations over the years where a part of our network is having issues (latency or errors) that the RMM alerts have saved us from a major outage. You can't ask for better proactive alerting.
  • The advanced alerting allows us to stay ahead of issues instead of reacting to them. This gives us confidence in our network and our end users better support.

Cons
  • There are so many features and options that it can be overwhelming in the beginning.
  • Wish there was a way to add custom fields to reports.
  • The GUI is crowded or links aren't clearly described on certain pages. I find myself forgetting how to get to certain views.
  • The software can start to lag after a while even if the hardware is specced out correctly. I would definitely recommend over-speccing the device.
  • API is just OK, wish they would put more effort into this.

  • Remote desktop - while it's solid, there's definitely some room for improvement regarding speed. It's also common to get disconnected but it's easy to reconnect immediately.
  • I'd love to see better patch management. It's a battle we've been fighting for a while and had us seeking out other vendors.
  • I feel like there could be more alignment between the website and the application. I find myself going to one or the other for specific info.

Usability
The interface is easy to navigate. Setting up policies is straight forward. The antivirus and web filter are simple and exceptions are easy to make. Upgrading the agent is made simple and creating scripts is made fool proof. (Well, almost)

Support Rating
The ease of use, full functionality, reliability and excellent support.[N-able RMM (formerly Solarwinds RMM)] gives users a full suite of tools with a single installable file. Unlike standard tools, you don't have to install several different executables to be able to have fully protected end points.

We rate and recommend Panda Systems Management not only because it is a very effective and very cost effective solution that pays itself for us (ROI) extremely fast, but also due to all reason described previously and possibly a few more I'm sure we missed here. I do have to says tech support for this solution sometimes leave a bit to be desired.

Alternatives Considered
We only tested an older version of LabTech. By comparison, the newer version of LabTech is much more competitive to Solarwinds RMM than it used to be. ConnectWise Automate has far better integration options for our PSA than Solarwinds RMM, down to very granular changes for automated ticket templates.

Much easier solution to use (by a ten fold), very intuitive user interface even for inexperience users... does not require on prem server because is cloud based

Return on Investment
  • The SolarWinds name carries a good bit of clout in the industry. This has definitely helped secure a few deals.
  • The addition of Cloud Backups had a positive impact because we were able to easily add it as a bolt-on for existing clients. We have now added this offering to almost 20% of our managed servers.
  • We are in the process of moving into a "co-managed" business plan. SolarWinds RMM has facilitated this by allowing us to help in-house IT teams with offloading server management and maintenance while they are able to focus on big-picture objectives.
