  1. It would be great if there were the ability to select two choices under Window Update restart configs. The idea being, I have windows updates under Automation scheduled to go at 11 pm every Thursday. My configuration policy is currently set to Allow end users to control device restarts. This is because my end users computers are not always online at 11 pm. So when the computer comes back online the next morning the update policy kicks in and then starts prompting the user. The problem then becomes updates wont reboot the computer the night before because of those prompts…

  2. I would like to see a selection of "when device becomes online/available" added to the schedule on the IT automation page. There are many times when an oddball device is powered on for a few hours and it isn't powered on during the automation schedule window. There may be another way around this, but running the IT automation task when the device comes online would be a great feature to have.

  3. Working with big amount of machines through webpage is very slowly and uncomfortable. But for now it is the only way to work with automation profiles.

    Could you add an option to work with automation profiles via API?
    To get all names of existing profiles, to get information about some particular profile, to get list of endpoints which are applied to it, to add some new or exclude some of them from particular profile and so on... It would be nice to work with it from PowerShell instead of waiting for loading page with each of these requests.
    Thanks in…

  4. It would be fantastic if, within automations, we could have a checkbox option, for instance, to launch certain scheduled tasks during the next startup if the scheduling couldn't take place due to the agent being offline, as many RMM platforms already offer. Nowadays, with the rise of remote work and mobile workstations, it's even harder to schedule certain tasks at a fixed time.

  6. When rebooting a windows machine after patching check if the machine has a bitlocker encrypted boot drive and disable bitlocker encryption.

    Optional (and maybe harder, so maybe don't bother):
    Have an option to set -RebootCount (for how many reboots bitlocker should be disabled) or set it to >1 as some updates reboot multiple times and check after reboot if patching is done and re-enable bitlocker.

    Alternatively:
    Have an option to start a script at the beginning of the patch process so we can do is ourselves with Powershell's Suspend-BitLocker cmdlet.

  7. If in the Task area under OS Patch MGT a box is unchecked do not show any available patches anywhere ever. If unchecked here I shouldn't have to exclude them anywhere and I should not see them anywhere.

    By them showing it appears as if things are missing when in reality they were never wanted. In my case it is Hardware updates, we do not want this automated as it has caused major issues in the past running these automatically so we prefer to send these manually if needed.

  8. Most of our automated scripts fail because of "Unable to fetch information from agents." errors. Most of these agents are online and available during script run.

    Atera should be able to run an automated script without reporting failure when WSUS is in use.

  9. I do daily patching on my devices. Since not all devices are always online at the time the report ist generated, it would be nice to see a difference in the generated report between a device, where the installation failed and those, which were just offline.

  10. IT Automations profile: Would be nice to have a notification when multiple IT automations coincide since we have a lot of users on Atera.

  11. In saturations where a single specific Microsoft KB needs to be applied to a Customer Group - It would be nice to be able to search for that KB and select for ONLY that KB to be pushed out through IT Automation and Patch Management.
    Example: During Quarterly Maintenance, if we only want the previous months MS patches pushed and not the most current, it would be nice to be able to select the one KB and push it to that Customer Group.

  14. Hi, it would be very useful if we could define in the patch summary report the number of missing patches when a client is Up to date or not.
    Because in a larger network the report is nearly always Negative.

  15. On the device page there is a manage available patches button, but when going tin to folders this is not available.
    It would be very helpful to have this option under folders as well.

  16. When you click Admin then Patch Management & IT Automation
    On that list screen it would be awesome to see "Next Execution Time" as an option.

    Instead of having to click inside each one to see when it runs next.

  17. The ability to assign a random wait time if you're running a script on many machines.

    For example, if I'm using a script to download and install some software, I don't want to have 400 machines all request for a download from a webserver and tax the traffic or get restricted.

    I know there are delay options for offline devices so it can wait, but it would be ideal to be able to set a random delay, and pick the limit. So, I could apply a script to run on 400 devices, and I can set it to pick a…

  19. Using the API you can set a Threshold profile when creating a customer folder. I think it would be useful and make sense if you can also set an IT Automation Profile from this as well.
    From this :
    data = {
    "Name": "string",
    "CustomerId": int,
    "ThresholdId": int
    }

    To this :
    data = {
    "Name": "string",
    "CustomerId": int,
    "ThresholdId": int,
    "AutomationProfileID" : int
    }
