How Remote Monitoring and Management Benefits Your Business

Written by Locknet Managed IT | Jun 21, 2022 8:37:05 PM

What is Remote Monitoring and Management (RMM)?

RMM is the proactive, remote tracking of network management and computer health. When problems with the network or specific devices are detected, they are reported back to the managed service provider (MSP), allowing technical experts to fix problems remotely before they become a disruption to your business. Remote monitoring of devices in real-time allows for instant reporting of issues and potential problems.

RMMs monitor a network’s entire remote system. This helps MSPs maintain all of the devices used within a business’s system regardless of whether they are in the office or at home. RMMs can collect and organize usage data, generate reports for MSPs, and automate any system maintenance. 

How does RMM benefit your business?

The best way to solve a technical issue while incurring the least expense is to prevent it from happening. RMM provides a more proactive approach to network management, cost savings, and improved tracking and reporting. This is especially important now with your business’s network extending to a virtual workforce as well.
