SolarWinds MSP Ideas MSP Remote Monitoring & Management

I would love to be able to remotely install software to a client machine in the background.

Wake On Lan - Looking at LogMeIn, this is a very handy feature, they use another online PC to then send the WOL packet to the PC you want switching on. How many people think this would be very handy?

When a customer ever stops using our monitor or MSP services, we need to uninstall the agent from their PCs. 1. This is a good practice for keeping things clean. 2. We don't want competitors who may follow us to find out what technology we're using. They need to build their own businesses themselves. It would be very helpful in these situations, if the agents would auto-uninstall themselves after we have deleted a client, ...more »

I notice that the DSC hacker check is able to report on the number of attempts that have occurred over the past 24 hours. However, it would be nice that the hacker check would show a summary of what user name(s) caused the authentication or login failure and associate that account with the number of attempted failures Also, it would be nice to see what time the failures have occured during the day. This would be ...more »

Also if you have more than 25 different customers with different schedules, it is difficult to keep track. If you know it on site, set the schedule (or ...more »

It would be really useful to be able to see installed / default printers in Asset Tracking.

I know you can use the server to SNMP to other devices, be would be really good to be able to add routers, switches, WAPs, PBX etc as objects in the dashboard that then link back to a server SNMP check. Would make the monitor MUCH more complete. If you were then able to poll the device and get info from SNMP and HTTP or TELNET to fill details (make, model, serial, warrant) and we had fields we can put access information ...more »

Advance Monitoring Agent should have an option of a password requirement for removal to stop uninstall by mistake or local user.

We often need to provide to the customers which licence key is installed on which computer.

It could be greate if we had a licence key inventory to provide this information...

The device overdue, and a 5 min 247 ping check does not provide realtime alerting for when the network and/or server goes down.
