What is RMM Software and Why Do MSPs Need It?
What is RMM?
RMM stands for “remote monitoring and management.” Remote monitoring and management tools are a foundational technology for managed service providers (MSPs). Managing client endpoints and devices is a key tenant in a managed services business, and these tools give MSPs the ability to do so remotely.
What are the benefits of RMM tools?
RMM solutions are used by IT professionals to remotely monitor system status and manage processes without the requirement to physically be on site. With the right RMM tool, MSPs can do more with less–simplifying operations for the MSP while providing efficient service for the client.
Drive Efficiency and Automation into Service Delivery
By centralizing the management of client endpoints, MSPs can reduce costs and increase service delivery efficiency. From installing software to patch management remote monitoring and management software is designed to drive efficiency, scalability, usability, and affordability.
Scale the Business
For maximum uptime, consider a 100% cloud platform with no hardware to maintain. With a cloud-based RMM solution, MSPs can scale their endpoints with ease, whereas an on-premises solution may require upgrades and manual maintenance to grow with your business.
Build Value and Trust with Clients
With a robust remote monitoring and management solution, MSPs can remotely and proactively monitor and support clients with one-click access to endpoints, mitigating risk and anticipating issues before they occur. MSPs can also use their RMM tool to provide clients with valuable insights and reporting.
Unify With Your Operations Engine
MSPs live and breathe in a professional services automation (PSA) tool to deliver service to clients, manage tickets, and organize business operations. To run an efficient and effective managed services business, PSA and RMM tools are essential. So, it only makes sense that integrating them will save MSPs time from not having to switch from platform to platform to complete a task.
