RMM stands for Remote Monitoring and Management. There are two parts to the equation: remote monitoring and remote management. Both must be discussed separately.
What is PSA RMM?
PSA (professional service automation) tools are a crucial part of any MSP’s operations. PSA tools allow you to track customers, work done, as well as other information. From the work, they also generate invoices. The central repository of all information about MSP processes, clients and assets, inventory, billing, time, billing, and more is the PSA tool.
MSPs can use RMM tools to do the same work as PSA tools. MSPs must use RMM software to connect remotely to clients and finish work. An RMM can handle many tasks such as finding work, automating tasks, and keeping track of devices and systems.
PSA RMM is the integration of an RMM solution with a PSA tool in an MSSP infrastructure. This helps to reduce costs and improve efficiency. This helps to minimize human error.
Remote Management Definition
Remote Management refers to managing a computer network or computer from a remote location. Remote Management involves the installation of software and managing all activities on a client’s systems/network, workstations/servers, or endpoints from a remote location.
Remote Monitoring
Remote Monitoring, also known as RMON, is a specification that allows MSPs to monitor the network operations of clients using remote devices. These devices are called probes or monitors. This allows MSPs to ensure that their network infrastructure is managed and controlled efficiently.
The Major Functions of Remote Monitoring Software
For MSPs
- Provides insight into client networks – including machine health and status, and reports and data about client systems/networks
- Assists in maintaining client systems and keeping them up-to-date
- Remotely resolves issues and helps to track them. This is achieved by creating alerts (tickets), and then resolving the issues.
- Clients don’t notice problems until they are solved
- Remote assistance to install and manage software and updates.
- The remote location allows you to administer multiple systems simultaneously.
- Automates maintenance tasks at client locations
for Break-Fix Customers
- Helps to resolve problems for customers that need break-fix.
- Customers with inconsistent income and no recurring revenue need to be helped by our experts
- Customers with multiple problems are helped by our team.
- Minor problems can be fixed, but if left untreated could cause bigger problems.
- Assistance with problems related to obsolete systems or irregular updates and upgrades
- Data breaches can be solved
