    Nice! The feature you requested is being considered for development. 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!

  2. There needs to be a date field for all devices that can record the end of warranty on a machine. In our department, we use that functionality to determine when a PC needs to be replaced.

  3. We currently Run Mac, Windows and Linux. A way to pull the Filevault recovery key just like the bitlocker key would be useful when users are traveling and have an issue. You can not always ensure that they have a copy of their key laying around in case of damage that needs to be repaired before they can return home.

  4. "ZFS" is being used more and more with Linux.
    The individual disks are displayed. However, this does not really help.

    The status is evaluated very simply with "zpool status".

  7. Assuming that heartbeats are sent both ways for machine availability, the server end is slow to recognize a computer is offline. This can make testing things like Wake on LAN very slow. If the client agent can somehow notify the server that a shutdown event was recorded and update the portal much sooner that would save a lot of time. Alternatively, decrease heartbeat interval times? Sometimes have to wait 5-10 minutes after shutting down a machine before the portal recognizes the device is offline.

  8. There are many ways the mobile app can be improved. For the most part, it would be extremely useful to get a consistent UX between the different UIs.

    To start with, here are some things that are currently available on the web UI that are not available in the mobile app:
    1.) Machine Name (or computer name)
    2.) Availability Monitoring (enabled/disabled)
    3.) Date Added
    4.) Last Logged User - there's a few things to say here. First, it should probably say "Last User Logon" so it makes more sense in English. Second, this is true for the web app and…

  10. It was explained to me by a support representative that Atera had decided that "Work From Home" should not be available on servers. I believe that decision should be relegated to us as the decision makers for these systems. Case in point: I have a third party consultant who needs access to a server to do maintenance on an accounting software. I believe it should be within my authority to authorize the use of Splashtop on this machine.

  11. When I am running a script against a single device, the overlay window covers up the machine name. The only way I can view the machine name is to maximize my browser window. I do not use a maximized browser window (ever). There are days I am pushing scripts to multiple machines, all on a case by case basis.

    Please relocate the position of the script running overlay. Make the overlay screen smaller, and much lower on the screen, so I can still see the Device name without having to maximize my browser.

    Or change the overlay window so…

  12. When entering a client's account, if there's a note on the account (or on a device) have it make the users acknowledge that note (with an option to ignore for say 24 hours) instead of having it below where it is hard for people to notice.

  13. API: The possibility to find a computer by its DeviceGuid

    The possibility to find a computer by its DeviceGuid, so there will only be 1 result, if the computer is there – then we don’t need to run through more machines with same “machineName”

    Get agents for specified machine: GET /api/v3/agents/machine/{DeviceGuid}

  14. I want to be able to show my customers what machines have been replaced over the replacement cycle, so I do not want to delete retired machines from atera, I want to be able to mark them as retired and exclude them from everything except a retired assets report.

    The current system of hide devices not seen for X days is not the same thing, Just because a device has not been switched on for say 300 days, does not mean that I do not need to know of it's existence for the fixed assets register.

  15. So before the alerts page update, the device name and customer name was a unique hyperlink in which you can (by clicking the mouse wheel button) open the device or customer in a new page.

    I need to open a new tab by clicking customer and manually navigating to the device within the customer devices list. This is not a great UI experience and I would appreciate if the old functionality could be restored.

  16. This terminology needs improving
    Retired devices should be renamed to "Infrequent Devices" and in general settings moved to section called reporting rather than agent settings and described as the "Infrequent devices threshold".
    Just because a machine has not been switched on recently, does not mean it is retired! - it could be a laptop that is only used twice a year as a standby, but just should be excluded from certain patch compliance reports etc.

    proper retirement of machines is a whole different feature as per https://atera.uservoice.com/forums/936306-ideas-and-feedback/suggestions/44000010-ability-to-archive-retired-devices

  17. 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.

  18. Whether I'm under customer alerts or all alerts there are filters, but we are missing a filter by agent. This could be done just the same as the advanced device filters. We collect so much data on alerts but there's no way to see all the historical alerts for a single machine.

  19. Offline agent Alert: When a machine goes offline, rebooted or something, we get a lot of tickets going offline. We get a 3 dozen tickets and even though they might not be. would be nice to choose the interval of how long a device is offline before sending alerts.

  20. There seems to be a issue with MS Store downloading and installing updates automatically. I have to remote access each users machine, open the Store, select Library, then Get Updates for the majority of the apps on the machine to receive their updates. I have followed all of Microsoft's how-to-guides on how to resolve this issue, but it still persists.

    I would like to see something in IT Automation or Agent function that includes scans for, validates, downloads, installs, and verifies installation for MS Store updates. It would be excellent if it could reference current CVEs during it's scan…
