  1. I would love a button - connect - in the devices under patch management.
    Often I would like to know if the PC/Device is free to reboot and a quickview, without loosing the client by clicking would be great.

  2. Need the ability to push out windows updates en masse from the devices dashboard, similar to pushing a script to multiple computers or assigning an automation profile. This would come in handy when something was missed during a scheduled install or a batch of new machines.

  3. I am monitoring a website via HTTPS. When the website goes down it requires a restart of the service. I have created a script that does this. It has to be run on the host manually as there is no link between the alert and the host.

    can we have have an option that when the HTTPS monitoring triggers an alert that it has the option to run a script on a host. Still alert to the issue but perhaps be able to resovle it automatically and right away.

  4. When disk space goes over my 80% threshold I get a warning, that's great. But 79.999% doesn't constitute "Resolved", I'd like to set the hysterises level (say to 5%, it's defacto 0% right now) so the warning comes in at 82% and is considered resolved at 78%. By adding this degree of hysteresis, the flood of Alert Problem / Alert Resolved messages is reduced.

  5. Patch Management, IT Automation, and Script retry option, when executed allow the agent to retry a specified number of times before failing. This would prevent a lot of automation failures, and fix 90% of the issues I have with Atera.

  6. Atera should the ability to disable scripts. This way you can enable or disable a script without having to modify the IT Automation and adding/deleting a script.

  7. Automate Scripting off of custom fields variables
    EX. Custom field is checked then perform y script

    Automate scripting off of ticket automation rules.
    EX. Ticket has status of "new hire" run script y.

    and even allow to apply and remove profiles to users automatically from tickets or custom fields.

  9. A possibility to update software and apps that were not installed via chocolatey and homebrew would be a very important function. This should also be possible for installations that already exist when the Atera Agent was installed.

  10. I work in a higher education environment, which means we have computer labs and commons. It would be great to have configuration profiles that can set power plans to entire labs so that during peak periods the computers can be awake and ready for students to use, but then allowed to go to sleep after hours.

  11. some customers don't wanna get notification mails
    it would be great to have an option at cusomer data not to send such mails

    it would much better, to have that option an the ticket too and its set to the value of the customer on ticket creation.
    so we could see if the customer usually gets mails but decide for an other option at creation of a ticket

    alternatively a condition "contains not" at ticket automation rules could be a workaround
    send mail if customer name contains not "(no mail)"

  12. Be able to create groups or searches of specific devices (Like only server OS or only workstation OS), and automatically apply IT automation profiles (not limited to) to those devices.

  13. I know the Atera patch management function uses the WUA API to perform tasks, but additional functionality based on a device's vendor would be very helpful. I've noticed that patch management can often miss BIOS and firmware updates rolled out by vendors like Dell or HP, if Windows Update doesn't catch them.

  14. Currently when you push a Windows 11 upgrade to a device and that upgrade finishes installing, the user will get a brief notification that the device will be restarted soon and then it forces a restart. It would be good if there was a way to either have the automatic restart disabled so they user can restart the computer at their choosing or have the upgrade follow whatever Configuration Profile is setup for that device so that it follows the companies normal patching installation procedures.

  15. When creating an automation profile there is no clean way of creating an automation that runs every other week.
    For example I wish to run a secondary backup every other Friday. Currently you have to choose Friday for weekly and disable it every other week.

  16. This report will allow us to check all machines before and after the patch automation process. It will help identify machines where patching was missed, enabling us to address any issues and ensure all systems are up to date. Additionally, if possible, we would like the option to set up donut charts for subfolders within customer folders to provide a visual representation of the data.

  18. It would be extremely beneficial if there were logs of which patches were deployed to an agent in case of issues.

    We had a Mac device restart after receiving an update and it booted back into recovery with us unable to recover the device. Without knowing which patch this device received, we cannot exclude the patch from other devices. Instead we have to disable OS updates to avoid any additional device failures.

  19. Make it so you can use wildcards when monitoring service names. Different versions of Windows use different names for services. For example:
    Microsoft Defender Antivirus Service
    Windows Defender Antivirus Service

    If we could enter wildcards we would be able to look for:
    *Defender Antivirus Service
    As long as something matched you wouldn't get an alert. Same issue with the firewall. There are different names between different versions.

    The next step would be to add logical operators. So I could look for Microsoft Defender Antivirus Service OR Windows Defender Antivirus Service
