Easy to use and learn. A must have for our clients where time is of the essence when an incident occurs where downtime is business threatening.
Pros
The ability to automate as much as possible is key in our business. Using maintenance scheduling is one of the most important features and was key to choosing this product over others.
Cons
I wish there were more integrations with other industry software.

It's better than many of the RMMs out there if you need good scripting and patch management. The Sentinel 1 integration was terrible and the backup integration is not great either.
Pros
The automation policies you can create deploying software offer a lot of power and flexibility in terms of variables you can set by side and time scheduling.
Cons
Take control is painful to use after using Connectwise Control. I've also had an open issue with the RPD protocol under Take Control that has been open for months unresolved.

Was great up until the last 18 months when they split off from solarwinds and started raising prices and hard selling products
Pros
Loved that we were able to run our own appliance at our datacenter. Gave us full control over the systems uptime and access.
Cons
When they split off from Solarwinds and vecame its own seperate company the sales reps became a pain to work with and pricing for annual maintenance and licenses for add on features kept going up making it a much lower ROI
