      Pretty much everything you mention has horrible helpdesk/ticketing and costs money for a company like NTG's. While RMM would be nice it's not our main goal. We are an IT Company but have LOTS of customers (so not just an internal helpdesk for one single company). So we operate very differently than most.

      There are so many OpenSources/Free Options that I prefer to "support" those companies whenever possible, and not just because of the $$ issue.

        So where do these other services fit into the discussion?
        Hard to keep track of what is RMM, versus ticketing, versus asset tracking, versus remote control and monitoring, reporting, etc etc.

        Any general comments across these others?

        http://www.landesk.com/

        https://www.continuum.net/products/rmm-software/remote-monitoring-and-management

        http://www.n-able.com/products/n-central

        https://www.manageengine.com/

        http://www.gfi.com/

        I'm not an expert on any of these but....

        LANDesk: Like RMM but focused for internal, enterprise use. Quite good.
        Continuum: Focused on being an offshore staffing firm, offers some RMM for MSPs
        N-ABle: RMM focused on MSPs
        Manage Engine: Huge portfolio, mostly enterprise management tools like LANDesk, owns Zoho, has multiple suites of tools, no RMM
        GFI: Has RMM, it was okay-ish, for MSPs

          So then what are the core features you need?

          Ticketing system but not focused on "internal" org? So like "public" tickets?? Or just ticketing "internally" to NTG but for all your outside clients and NOT public?
          Does something like Freshdesk do this? Their tickets are more public though.

          RMM specifically? So specifically you require remote control and monitoring? But you use Screenconnect already, are you wanting to replace it?
          For remote monitoring could you use any sort of small daemon tool? Something like Glances: https://nicolargo.github.io/glances/
          It just needs Python and is cross platform.

          Do you need full asset management across all customers along with the monitoring? So ticketing plus remote control plus remote monitoring plus asset management? What about the email and CRM parts of it? Probably need a connection there too.

          Can a person find ANY program which has all this in one package? Certainly complicated.

            What we use currently for tickets is SpiceWorks hosted. No this is not a good option for us. We can't run real reports and it crashes and is buggy.

            We need a helpdesk that has no public tickets and that we could connect ScreenConnect directly to would be awesome (that wasn't a bad system which is all there seems to be now).

            I think we will stick with something open source for now and just build our own that is the only way we get what we need and want. There is NOTHING that is actually great out there.

              Dang. You'd think this is exactly what RMM/MSP software is supposed to be doing!

                Right? You would think that our use case would be exactly what they target. But they don't seem too.

                  So what happened with this, I know things were busy but the world doesn't stop spinning because of MangoCon!

                  Paging @Minion-Queen and @scottalanmiller

                    It's driving to Texas and buying a new car that is stopping me from getting things done 🙂

                        Yes it does! The in charge people were way to busy (and still too busy). So everything was put on hold.

                          While driving. What could possibly go wrong?

                            Nothing, people play Pokemon Go and drive all of the time.
