  1. To be able to schedule Patch management tasks, this would be useful for Mac devices that require Upgrade patches to be run via Patch management instead of IT Automation profiles.

    This workaround is useful for Mac devices that are offline, in order to help automate pushing Upgrade patches

  2. It would be a huge time-saver if Atera could include the ability to deploy PPPC (Privacy Preferences Policy Control) profiles through its MDM tools to automatically grant Full Disk Access for the Atera agent on macOS devices.

    Right now, we have to manually configure this on each Mac, which is both time-consuming and prone to being missed during setup. If Atera could handle this as part of the MDM deployment process, it would greatly simplify onboarding, improve monitoring reliability, and ensure better compliance across all endpoints.

    This would be especially helpful for IT teams managing remote or large fleets of…

  3. It would be great to have a feature to allow for Microsoft patch roll back built into the product. This would be great when Microsoft puts out a patch that does not function as expected and thus affecting machine performance and/or non-functioning.

    Every product that I have used in the past offers this feature.

  6. Since Chocolatey doesn't support ARM binaries and sometimes breaks things by updating Edge Webview2 with x64 causing chaos where users are unable to open some apps (Teams) and download PDF's etc, we have disabled Chocolatey in Atera altogether.

    But by disabling Chocolatey we also disable Homebrew for Mac since it's one button for both.

    Can you please separate these options so that we can keep Homebrew enabled?

  7. Please set a different category esp in the Patch Management console so I can see Patched / Needs patches / Needs patches but offline or some notation of been offline for a while, etc. It's very hard to tell if I am up to date or it's just offline PC's / outdated PCs. I have no way of telling whether I am close to being up to date or a few offline PCs are throwing all my stats a skew. Super helpful if it had a color bar for this in the graphs.

  9. It would be great to have the patch approval section of the Automation Profiles to automatically populate instead of waiting for the automation profile to run.

    I want to be able to see which patches are availble via the automation profile on a weekly basis but without having the risk of them installing when running the automation profile daily.

    Currently, the new patch management screen automatically populates with new patches, and maybe this logic can be included in the automation profile patch approvals?

    A report for pending patches per client could also be useful for clients that require an approval…

  10. Patch Management (New) - save a view or filters
    It would be nice to save views that we have filtered in the new Patch Management section of the Atera Portal. It is causing a lot frustration Atera resets the filters I am using. especially hard when I have do my monthly IT Reports.

  11. For servers or computers that are used for specific purpose such as VEEAM or other reason like keeping a computer on older Windows versions for specific reasons, these computers are omitted from patch profiles and are not patched. These computers need to have an option to filter out of the patching dashboard and reports as they affect the reporting inaccurately due to this business practice.

  12. It would be nice to be able to manually scan for Windows updates, 3rd party patches and inventory via a button for bulk or single endpoint. Currently you have to wait or reboot an endpoint for atera to update patches/inventory and status.

  13. In development environments, it's critical to be able to set a specific version to applications, which cannot be upgraded further.
    It's mostly used for browsers and infrastructure (For example, smbclient for domain-binding changed its tags and broke processes).
    Setting up version lock for all packages (not just excluded windows updates) will allow for stable systems.

  14. Currently the only options when selecting to "Postpone" updates on Window is "Critical" and "Non-critical".

    With this in place, Microsoft Defender Definition updates are getting marked as "Non-critical" and therefore stop any ability to actual have "Non-critical" updates be postponed without making devices less secure.

    Allow more granularity in which specific types of updates we can postpone with different timelines, e.g. put in line with the options in OS Patch Management:

    • Critical updates

    • Security Updates

      • Security updates
      • Definition updates
      • Update rollups
    • Service Packs

      • Service pack updates
      • Feature packs
      • Updates
    • Drives and tools

      • Hardware driver updates
      • Office updates
      • Tool updates

  16. A precise control over the device reboot from Configuration policy

    What we need:
    We need to be able to specify a deadline for automatic PC restart and application of updates. Similar to the setting in Group Policy, the deadline time frame can be between 2 and 14 days. After the deadline has passed, devices restart regardless of active hours. Currently, it is between 15 to 180 minutes.

    What we have in Atera through configuration policy:
    • Disable auto-restart with logged-on users
    • Restart outside of active hours
    • Restart after selected time period
    o 15 – 180 minutes
    • Allow…

  17. When deploying a MSI file through Atera using IT Automations, I need an option where Atera checks if the software isn't already installed before deploying it. I'm currently forced to update all of my servers everyday whether it's needed or not.

  19. Under Scripts you have the option to be able to upload an MSI file but no helper files. we have software that required a .txt licensing filing and would be helpful to be able to add that feature as well as automatically with all scripts to run /quiet /qn /norestart with all MSIs

  20. It is great that there is a column in devices that will show all patches available.
    But that is less important than having a column and patch mangement tool that reports relevant patches that are required to meet my organizations patch standards. This information has been provided to the system by my Automation and Patching Polices. Yet the Patch Management panel and the Patches Available column indevices do not reflect this.

    This makes the the patches available column not useful at all unless you just want to see what is available for that given end point according to the MS…
