What differentiates ConnectWise Automate from other similar products?

Integrations and market share make this product ahead of a lot of others in the field. There are other features that some RMMs have that Automate doesn't but the opposite is true as well. Tons of customizability, plenty of community help in forums etc.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Patch management, it wasn't bad before, now the new UI makes it even better.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Sometimes customization can lead you down long rabbit holes, once you understand it. It is a big learning curve to do customization.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

If you are in the CW universe there really isn't a better option. Plus you get CW Control, which is the best remote control tool out there period.

Pros

Enables Productivity
Includes Product Enhancements
Reliable
Performance Enhancing

Cons

Wastes Time
Vendor's Interest First
