  1. Some jobs get stuck in the "in progress" State and the ability to remove them would be great. Especially when they fail and have to be run again, this will prevent us from having multiple of the same processes for one machine. Which in turn will making viewing the report much easier when updating or running scripts on multiple machines at once.

  2. I would love to globally set my agents to only play sound on the remote machine and not on mine, and also to remove the splashtop printers as I don't need them. It would be useful to have both of these options configured as default for new agents also

  3. I was told they are not the same, but it is basically the same. You want to know when the system was rebooted/shutdown. I had a client that hadn't rebooted, but they shutdown their machine every night. The system reports this as uptime, which is very wrong.

  4. If we can broadcast message to specific client, we can remind them to leave their computer on over night so scheduled update would be run. Or if there is a scam email being send to everyone in the organization, we could let them know to delete the message. As Atera agent already installed on all the machines, pushing a pop up message would help to reach many users quickly.

  5. I am a manager in a team of 5. Myself and one other are dedicated to maintaining the hardware and endpoint software on our network. We both have Atera licences and work onsite.

    I also have 3 team members who develop inhouse software applications for use by our clinical colleagues. All three of these team members now work from home permanently. There have been many occasions where it would have been useful for these three colleagues to have the ability to remote control users machines who are onsite for support and training purposes, particularly recently.

    As manager for both…

  6. Have atera compare serial number on device in order to make it easier to hunt down the same agent appearing twice or more because of reinstall of client.

    It would be nice with joint report that shows clearly what machines and to what customer they are connected. And also a auto cleanup cross all customers and for a single customer.

  7. Since the default is disabled, there should be a way to see if it is enabled in the GUI without having to use a script or something of the like.

    Or have a global setting to "Enable" it by default so that you don't have to configure each machine.

  8. Our company needs to monitor the available space for shared volume clusters so our virtual machines don't shut down all at once. The problem is that Atera can only monitor available space on drive letters and nowhere else.

    Right now we're using a powershell script to regularly check in on the cluster volume, which is far from ideal.

  9. I would love the ability to include/exclude/choose which data to search when searching Devices.

    I manage medical equipment, and some machine names have "OCT" in the name, as they're OCT machines. Today when searching for the OCT at a remote site within Atera/Devices, the list wasn't narrowed because the search apparently includes the date...and it's OCTober. Was pretty frustrating to scroll the list of devices to find the one I was looking for.

    Machine names, usernames, WAN and/or LAN gateway IP addresses, and possibly DNS servers would be my main desired items to search "Devices" for. The date is…

  11. We have moved from Ninja to Atera and the difference in Policies is a bit disappointing.

    With Ninja we could have company wide policies applied to "Servers" or "Workstations" and a Mac, Windows and Linux option.

    However, we don't seem to have an option like that with Atera, instead we have to make sure to manually apply server polices to servers and workstation policies to workstations.

    Each Policy would also give us the option to setup alerts and scheduled tasks/script which doesn't seem to be in Atera.

    For example, we have a 2 main policies set for all servers. "Scheduled…

  12. We have a custom restart script for our users that will remind them to restart the PC after a patch + software update automation profile has been run.

    The problem at the moment is that the script will be ran basically in the beginning or in the middle of the automation profile run cycle which is confusing for the users and some may restart the PC right in the middle of the run.

    We would like to see a script prioritization feature where the admin can decide when to run the script on a client machine within the automation profile.

  13. Currently if a software update via Chocolatey or Winget fails, we get a very generic "action failed" message. It would be helpful to know what failed and to pull logs about the failure into the Atera console so that we don't need to remotely connect to the machine and drill down into local log files to identify the cause.

  14. When scheduling a device to restart, the notification to user is way too short and in some cases it goes away immediately.

    I would like to:
    A) set a timer so user can save their work etc
    B) Have an option of custom canned messages or allow for a custom message to be added.

    That way if we need an user to stop using a machine while we work on it they can save their work and be notified.

  15. It would be helpful to be able to set the IP Range, that will be scanned. Haveing a Network with different Ranges connected trough VPNs and haveing a Domain, now we are not able to distribute the Agents to machines in other IP-Range then the Server with his Agent is.

  16. How many times has a machine raised an alert:
    Scenario: You want to know if the same issue keeps occurring on a particular pc.

    You set the alert status filter to Resolved – but there is no way to filter the list to just that machine and then while you are scrolling to find it the list suddenly refreshes and annoyingly puts you back at the top of the list!
    Please give us an export to excel function and a filter by agent, and the ability to pause the list refresh!

  17. The device details page of a windows machine includes the field "Windows 11 eligibility", but that field is absent from Analytic Report Filters. I'd like to be able to include that field in my reports.

  18. Linux agent doesn't work if SELinux is enabled. I've written a lot of Policies already in an attempt to get this to work, and after writing over 14, it seems like it may never end. Ideally, there needs to be a patch, plugin, module, or something to get it to work with SELiunx.

  19. If there is no user assigned to a "machine causing an alert", set "requestor" to a Techician or System.
    Current automatic behaviour is to set the first (alphabetically) contact from the affected Site to the alert/ticket .

  20. At the moment if you have a machine with multiple graphics cards in Atera will only list the first one it happens to find - which is not very useful. Please list all the graphics cards in a device.
