CPU/GPU/RAM/Storage Temperature in Metrics
I would like to see CPU temperature history in the metrics to pinpoint and correlate activity with temperature.

Hi everyone,
I want to make sure we understood the needs correctly.
What I’m hearing from this thread and the ones I merged as they are parts of the same equation and the related ideas is that the main ask is not just “add a temperature graph,” but give technicians visibility into the same hardware and device metrics Atera already monitors or alerts on, so they can see the current value and recent trend directly in the product.
The recurring needs seem to be:
- current/latest reading after an alert
- historical trend over time
- support for more metrics beyond CPU and RAM
- less reliance on scripts just to confirm what is going on
- better troubleshooting and fewer false positivesSome of the examples mentioned here are CPU temp, disk or SSD or HDD temp, GPU temp, fan speed, drive usage, disk space trends, network usage, and separate graphs or tiles instead of combining everything into one view.
To make sure we capture this correctly before it goes to product review:
- is that an accurate summary of what you expect from us to improve?
- which part matters most to you: current value, trend history, more metric types, or troubleshooting after alerts?
- are there any key use cases we are missing that should be included in the final consolidated version?If you contributed to this thread or one of the merged ideas, please reply and confirm whether this reflects your need correctly, or add anything important that should not get lost.

There are a few other similar ideas that should all be included in the final solution, which is we wish to see all things on the graph...
CPU temps
Memory temps
GPU temps
SSD/HDD temps
Disk Usage
Disk Space (trends can be paired with updates or software installations)In general I don't require these to be live graphs, the current method of periodic data capture to show trends over longer periods is adequate.
Something to implement in the future would be a real time monitoring option, not something which would be retained beyond the monitoring session and should absolutely be its own pop-up window.

Device metrics
Currently, RAM and CPU usage are displayed as a single graph. A separate display would be very helpful. Network usage could also be shown as a graph, as well as a drive overview. Displaying these as tiles would be a worthwhile addition.

Thank you for keeping the updates and features coming

Can you see the CPU temperature?
I was getting alerts for Disk temperature, seems you cannot see the value... You can, but you have to fire a script....Would be a great/simple? add-on, to be able to see all the values that are already available but are not shown yet.
Real sad to see that is an post from 3 years ago...

I am really surprised that these kinds of basics are not present.
I do get notifications that the temperature is too high, but I cannot see these values (yes, when I execute a script) and I cannot get a metric of this either.Especially if the data is already in Atera, they could easily be added.
AI is nice, but if the basis is not there yet, then leave AI alone.
PS. can't you let AI program these functions into Atera ;). -

I'm surprised this isn't a feature already. It would come in handy as our server room AC failed and we're relying on a portable unit until it can get fixed. We have a room sensor that gives us a reading of the ambient temperature in the server room, but it would be nice to be able to use Atera to monitor the CPU and other temperatures of individual machines in cases like this.

The default being the Mem & CPU that's currently shown.
In the drop down you would have Temperature, which might shows the line graph for CPU temperature, HD Temperature. Another option in the dropdown would would graph maybe disk usage or something. -

Temperature and fan speed sensor data would be great to see in real time and historical per computer. I keep getting alerts about my computers Temps and Fans and I keep adjusting the alerts, but I have no way of telling what the current readings are. If you're going to allow us to get alerts on this info, you should allow us to see the real time data too.

Display the most recent/current/'live' temperature of the device/agent.
After getting an alert, it would be great to have the live or most recent device temperatures displayed in the agent view to confirm the thermals of the device. -

CPU temperature would be great, but other hardware/sensor metrics as well. Perhaps the ability to select various sensors and customize those views to the tech's preference. Also then being able to produce a report for such metrics.

I'm sure alot of your customers are in the US. I can't believe there is not a Fahenhei t option

Even more important than temperature on modern laptops is to see if CPU is being throttled. modern laptops are design to run hot. Throttling is a better indication of something going wrong.

Its not a new thing, its an improvement for an existing one.
"Hardware Temperature Monitoring"
As a system administrator, it will be amazing to have a tool that can monitor the CPU and memory usage, but it will be even better to be able to monitor the endpoint devices hardware temperature so I could know when to acrivate the warrenty\ replace a specific hardware instead the entire pc. -

Not just temp history, also just a temp counter that refreshes every few minutes.

I 100% support this. Being able to classify alerts based on some hardware matching would be really beneficial. I would want to say something like "if processor contains 'i7' set temp threshold to 90F for 30min", or something to that effect. What I DON'T want is "if processor equals 'Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-9700 CPU @ 3.00GHz - 8 cores' set temp threshold to 90F for 30min".

Device metrics graph should have options to show other system stats like drive usage, drive space, temperatures, etc. Things that are monitored by threshold.

Please add the ability for the alerts to display Fahrenheit temperature in addition to or inplace of Celsius.

There is the option to get alarm notifications based on temperatures right now.
However, there is no realtime display for the temperature (like for CPU and memory usage).
It would be neat to see past data, too. -

I was just asking a support person about this very thing! I could REALLY use that ability
