Hello Everyone!
\nI have been in the IT field for about 3 years now. I started in a large Healthcare facility where I was a Desktop Tech for 2 years, and then I jumped up to a System Administrator position for a smaller, local company.
\nI have been considering an IT business of my own (that is what I went to University to do), and I am in need of some advice on a good software to use.<\/p>\n
I would like to manage 80-120 business endpoints, most likely from many different small businesses (unless I land a couple larger scale contracts).<\/p>\n
My question to you all: Is there a good software out there that I could use to manage all these endpoints remotely from a single, central workstation (like my office) without having to actually remote into each computer individually?
\nMany of these small businesses don’t have their own servers, just a few computers on a basic, self managed network. I have looked at software like: LANSweeper, Solar Winds, ConnectWise, and a few others.<\/p>\n
Is there anyone that has experience running a similar business that would be willing to offer advice?<\/p>\n
Thanks in advance!!<\/p>","upvoteCount":3,"answerCount":8,"datePublished":"2018-07-21T20:14:32.000Z","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"mikehardy2","url":"https://community.spiceworks.com/u/mikehardy2"},"suggestedAnswer":[{"@type":"Answer","text":"

Some of the more affordable ones to look at are Ninja RMM, Avast Managed Workplace RMM and one free one to consider is Comodo One.<\/p>\n
