  1. Improve the 3rd party patching report to show what was patched on each machine when the 3rd party patching is run. Software and version of the old build and what was the software and version number of the one installed.

  2. It is crucial that my company and I are able to monitor the health of our clients hard drives, and currently the only option is a S.M.A.R.T. alert, which doesn't seem to function in my experience. An improved version of this or a drive monitor script / display on the device dashboard would be perfect.

  3. 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.

  4. I would like to propose a new feature that allows users to define the sequence of server restarts within a policy. Specifically, I would like to specify the order in which servers reboot, ensuring that the domain controller is brought online before other servers in the network. This feature would provide several advantages in terms of efficiency and system stability.

    -Seamless domain controller availability
    -Effective dependency management
    -Simplified management

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

  6. 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.

  7. We enabled WOL (Wake on LAN) on our desktops. It would be great if we can schedule a WOL packet being send to offline computers before processing the automation task. So we never interupt the end users by processing the updates outside office hours.

    Nice! The feature you requested is being reviewed by our product team. We’ll keep an eye on the number of votes, and let you know if a decision is reached to implement. Thank you for being a partner in our process!

  8. Software bundles can currently only be created with a specific version of an application. E.g. Adobe Acrobat Reader DC in version: 2021.005.20058, but Chocolatey can always install the latest version.

    It should be possible to make bundles that install e.g. Adobe Acrobat Reader DC in the latest version. Otherwise the packages often have to be adapted.

  9. It would be great to be able to queue scripts in an automation profile to run one after the other rather than all at once. This would allow for running "close software" before an edit to the software is made or allowing for the first script to complete a task that is needed for the second script to run.

  10. We have a lot of Automation profiles. At the moment there is no sorting by profile name. So it is difficult to manage the profiles or have a good overview.

  11. Add J-son file to a script: add a file when we do the installation scripts. The json file that needs to be in the same folder that needs to be in this executable. Instead of creating a script, there should be a way where you can upload a script and you should be able to include a json file.

  12. The ability to run scripts or automation processes on system start or user login would be amazing. For example, running a script on a system to fix an issue that reoccurs on startup.

  13. Add a feature to manage app versions for updates/patch management. You should be able to choose what version level you want for a particular application. This way patch automation will automatically exclude the app if a new version is available.

  15. Is it possible if the user starts a support chat and AI replay accordingly to troubleshoot the issue by running predefined scripts authorized by administrators. For example, if the user says his computer is running slow, AI must check the hardware utilization and accordingly run the script to fix the issue. If the issue persists, it should connect the user to a technician.

  17. It would be useful to display a pop up on logged in users' devices reminding to leave their devices turned on, on the night you are pushing out your patches.

  18. Great tool!!
    But it is a lot of manual work to go and check if there are new patches postponed and waiting for review. It will be great to have any kind of notification- an email? alert? So we'll know we need to go there and check it out.

  20. It would be helpful for scheduling patches if we could specify a + number of days as part of the schedule. For example, the second Tuesday of every month +5 days. This would let us build patch deployment times around patch Tuesday with consistency.
