HP bundling StoreVirtual VSA with new ProLiant purchases written by Philip Sellers December 6, 2013 HP is bringing software defined storage to the masses by bundling the StoreVirtual VSA (virtual storage appliance) with the purchase of new ProLiant hardware.

Kaseya VSA is available on a per user per month basis that includes support through an online knowledge base.
Kaseya VSA is much better, but still has a ways to go for a total offering This time my experience has been much better than the first. CEO and his team have proven to us so far that they are partners with us in this constant challenge of keeping up with the technology changes. They have displayed vision and integrity and I feel it will take some time, but I believe it is a long-term strategy that will be sustainable for our organization for growth and stability. In the past, we have spent too much time maintaining our tools instead of spending time to scale and grow. We are finally getting that traction now. Pros We are seeing that Kaseya is becoming much more rounded and diverse in its platform with the acquisitions of companies such as UniTrends, Spanning, and Borex (BMS). Time is our worst enemy, at this time.
The suite of products (Manage One and MSP 2.0) has a lot of potential that has us optimistic about the future. Cons Very light when it comes to Linux and Mac monitoring. There are still quite a few holes that need to be filled in the suite of products providing an MSP a total service offering. More and more of our clients are using Macs. Kaseya just isn't built to support Macs all that well. We have to rely on additional software/services to fulfill these needs, which adds more expenses and expertise needed to supply these services to our clients. Could be and needs to be much better.
That being said, these are common complaints that we have about much, if not all of the other RMM suites on the market (i.e. ConnectWise Automate, Solarwinds, GFI Max, etc).
Kaseya VSA - The Best RMM Having an RMM package is essential to running an MSP. It allows us to service our customers with fewer tech resources and a lower tech to customer ratio than without. Pros Kaseya VSA is the oldest and most mature RMM platform. It does it all; software management, monitoring, alerting, 3rd party patches, windows patches, backup, anti-virus/malware, and the best scripting engine around.
Cons The complete integration of the Kasey's network monitor Traverse isn't done yet, nor is their latest acquisition Rapid Fire tools. A professional VSA you can depend on We have relied upon Kaseya VSA to be the bedrock of our managed services offering for 7 years.
It is dependable and provides a diverse toolkit for our engineers and vCIOs. Pros We rarely have problems with the software.
It just runs. We are constantly asking it to do more and it always performs. We depend on it to service our clients and rarely if ever lets us down. Cons Promised updates and features usually take longer than promised to make it to us.
Not an uncommon issue with other major software developers but they get us excited about a new release and then we wait. Good resource to troubleshoot end users remotely Overall this is a good tool to remote into end user's computers to assist with their issues. Pros When you need to connect to any of your end users remotely you can easily connect to them as long as they have an internet connection. The end users doesn't have to be on the vpn for you to connect to them.
Cons Sometimes the end user's name doesn't appear and if you don't have their computer name on their laptop or don't know how to obtain is cumbersome. Fantastic features - Tough UI Overall, my experience is good, as I have a decent learning ability, but for first time users it’s extremely difficult to navigate. Pros You’re able to offer remote support sessions, push application packages, remote command prompt, application inventory and more. Cons The UI is confusing and takes a long while to get used to. There is also more than one way to complete the same action in many cases, meaning that if two users learn to do something, they don’t necessarily know the same method. Very nice and customization IT management solution I work with Kaseya every and it allows us to accomplish about 95% of what we would like it to do. Pros Kaseya offers a lot of modules and so includes a lot of features for managing endpoints.
Kaseya is very reliable. Fairly easy to configure (in relation to the number of features you want to utilize, but if you have a lot of agents then it is well worth your time). Cons There are bugs in the software and sometimes update break things that were previously working well.
Customer service is probably good for resolving issues for small or medium deployments on Kaseya VSA, but is not great for large deployments. License renewal horror story Pros Was generally easy to use and met all of our requirements for management. Cons The software renewal and support is bad.
I have had a ticket out in support for 2 months and was never resolved. The software then expired.
They are trying to force me to renew a 1-year term before they will even consider looking at the support ticket again. They refuse to resolve the support ticket and I don't want to commit to a product that I can't be sure will work.
I asked for 30 days to turn back on the license to give support a chance to help fix the issue but they refused. I even offered to pay for that month still no resolution.
They say that there is a EULA that covers non working as intended software but the catch is that you still have to pay out your contract. (Even if its broken your still paying for it. Seems logical to me.) Its sad they treat their customers like this. The software is good the management team over there is bad.
Overall positive experience with Kaseya so far, but getting down to brass tacks. This software allows my company to support and manage the networks, workstations, servers, and technology of our customers. It allows our technicians to remotely access and administer customer systems, automate maintenance tasks, monitor security and end user behavior, and also gives us a direct link into Kaseya's BMS product for support desk access with direct customer asset access and information. It has saved us many labor hours through automation of system patching and simple end user request or issue resolution. Pros I very much like Kaseya VSA's patch management capabilities, discovery, remote control and Live Connect, as well as the many integrations with 3rd party products.

VSA has made troubleshooting and reporting on ours and our customer's networks exponentially easier. I like that Kaseya is plotting out a roadmap to a software version that encompasses all aspects of Managed IT Services, and am looking forward to the next release. Cons I am not particularly fond of Kaseya's Cloud Backup integration with Acronis, and while customer support was exceptionally good prior to our purchase, and for almost the next full year after, it seems that there have been some internal changes of late.
We've had 4x account representatives in the 1.5 years we've been using VSA, and this last fellow just isn't cutting it. I've also noticed that our version (permissions) to the SAAS VSA do not reflect the same dashboard as others and getting features added or removed has been a process. Overall Kaseya technical support is kind and I had less trouble about this product. We provide asset management service, in SaaS business, by Kaseya.
So benefit I had is that we increase one service menu using this software. Pros.Easy UI to use software.Technical support team gave me answer in one business day thus I can easier maintenance this software.
Cons.When I purchased license, I need to buy only 2 months of license because our because we are going to stop this service. And we need to negotiate a lot with Kaseya sales team to extend license only 2 months instead of year.
