SolarWinds RMM Overview
What is SolarWinds RMM?
SolarWinds Remote Monitoring & Management offers a comprehensive set of tools to secure, maintain, and improve IT operations across client networks of all complexities and sizes. Trusted by over 20,000 MSPs globally and managing over 5 million devices and 160,000 SMBs, SolarWinds RMM offers a powerful platform with a tailored experience built for your business needs.
Automation Manager means that you'll never have to learn a new scripting language or proprietary code to automate processes like discovering and importing new devices. Instead, it offers drag-and-drop functionality and more than 100 out-of-the-box tasks that you can customize to fit your needs. Effortless device discovery provides a broad view of all devices connected to any of your networks, ensuring that any new device on a network can be found and properly managed for better security and governance. Complete Active Directory management tools allow you to tailor your system to even enterprise-level business needs, but the system's ease of use and pay-per-features pricing also make it perfect for smaller IT service providers who aren't served by standard license-based pricing models.
Together, SolarWinds Remote Monitoring and Management's advanced patch management, AV and web monitoring features provide full-spectrum security against modern malware and other cyber attacks. The tool offers next-level security features that keep clients in even the most sensitive verticals compliant with regulations like HIPAA. Auto-deployment also deploys security features across endpoints in bulk. The system is also capable of analyzing more than 5 million endpoints -- its whole customer base -- at once to detect emerging threats and other concerns immediately, and deploys those insights automatically for more full protection with predictive analytics features
The tool also offers free download of Android and iOS mobile apps to manage issues from anywhere.

SolarWinds RMM Reviews
SolarWinds RMM (formerly N-Able) is a great RMM tool
Great solution for an RMM tool. The management of the alerts and system is the best overall of the competitors. Would recommend as long as the PSA tool links to it well.
A decent mix with different tools
Their platform has absolutely put us in a better position for supporting our users working across multiple locations and offices.
Nice to have all your customers in one place
Customer service is hard to reach and slow to respond
Solar Winds is a Great addition to any technician doing remote monitoring and management
My overall experience has been positive as the software is a setup and forget automation for updates and detection of harmful software or sites on your client computers

SolarWinds RMM (formerly N-Able) is a great RMM tool
Pros
Very intuitive interface and easy to learn. Easy to navigate and manage individual endpoints and quiet noisy alerts. Great integration with direct hardware monitoring as well.
Cons
Remote access software has historically been an additional feature. Very competitive market and some aspects are not the "best" in the market, including remotely connecting to computers. SolarWinds is also only breaking into the PSA market so there is not a direct connecting service to link on day 1 without looking at other vendors.
A decent mix with different tools
Their platform has absolutely put us in a better position for supporting our users working across multiple locations and offices.
Pros
Solarwinds is building a very broad set of tools helping MSPs and admins manage corporate IT users, networks, and assets. I really like that a big part of their strategy consists of recurring available trainings of not only their own software, but best practices. I have already learned a great deal working with their platform.
Cons
They are still growing and adding on. It sometimes gets a little frustrating that all the toolsets are not directly integrated into their RMM platform.
Nice to have all your customers in one place
Customer service is hard to reach and slow to respond
Pros
The fact that I have all my customer computers in one place
Cons
Updates fail constantly and the reason is not clear. Also it doesn't work with trendmicro antivirus which is my solution
Response from SolarWinds MSP
We're sorry to hear you've experienced some challenges with customer service as we always strive to deliver the best service experience possible. This obviously wasn't what you experienced and that's troublesome. We will reach out to you shortly to hopefully assist you further.
Solar Winds is a Great addition to any technician doing remote monitoring and management
My overall experience has been positive as the software is a setup and forget automation for updates and detection of harmful software or sites on your client computers
Pros
I like the dash board setup and being able to select features for all my clients or individually. The antivirus software detection's are very accurate without false positive infections. The reporting feature can be scheduled and sent to clients emails concerning alerts or problems.
Cons
The software is a little frustrating to get setup and monitoring sometimes errors occur but when you work through the issues the software does an outstanding job of watching your clients
You don't need to spend more money elsewhere
Pros
The main pro for us has been that it is pay what you use. Many other RMM tools will lock you into 3 year contracts and make you buy hundreds of seats and you will pay for them regardless if you use them or not. We loved that the remote control tool was based on Teamviewer
Cons
The initial interface was kind of clunky. And we really didn't like when they changed the remote control client. We've gotten used to it now though.
