Where AadeeRMM stands out.
Pay for devices, not people
Add technicians, apprentices or a customer's own IT contact without a bigger bill. Your cost follows the devices you charge your clients for.
Remote support built in
Screen sharing, chat, voice calls, files and a terminal come with AadeeRMM itself — no third-party remote access tool or licence to manage.
Network devices included
Network discovery, SNMP monitoring and configuration backups for switches, firewalls and routers in every plan.
A full audit log
Every session, command and file transfer stays in a tamper-evident audit log for as long as you are a subscriber.
Accounting your way
Export invoices to Xero, QuickBooks, Zoho Books, Tally, Sage and others, and let clients pay online with Razorpay or Stripe.
Consent built into remote support
The user is asked before a session, sees who is connected and can end it themselves.
When Atera may suit you better
No product is right for everyone. Atera may be the better choice if:
- Each technician looks after a very large number of devices: per-technician pricing can work out cheaper. Do the sum with both price lists for your numbers.
- You manage Macs today: Atera supports them on its higher plans, and AadeeRMM manages Windows and Linux computers for now (macOS is coming soon).
- You need a HIPAA Business Associate Agreement: Atera lists one on its top plan, and AadeeRMM does not currently sign BAAs.
- You need a certified vendor: Atera states it is “AICPA SOC for Service Organizations and ISO 27001 certified”, while AadeeRMM is aligned with ISO 27001 but not certified (see our Security & compliance page).
- You want a longer trial: Atera offers 30 days, AadeeRMM 14.

AadeeRMM vs Atera: questions, answered.
Is per-device or per-technician pricing cheaper?
It depends on how many devices each technician looks after. Per-device pricing is usually cheaper for small and growing MSPs and when you want many logins; per-technician pricing can win when each technician manages a very large fleet. Our RMM pricing guide shows how to work it out.
Do I need a separate remote access tool with AadeeRMM?
No. Remote control, chat, voice calls, file transfer and the remote terminal are part of AadeeRMM. The remote terminal, session recording and Quick Connect are in the Professional plan.
Does AadeeRMM manage Macs or Linux?
Linux, yes; Macs are coming soon. AadeeRMM manages Windows 10, Windows 11 and Windows Server, and Linux computers and servers: Ubuntu, Debian, Red Hat Enterprise Linux, Rocky Linux, AlmaLinux and Fedora (x64 and ARM64). On Linux you get monitoring and alerts (system-log alerts too), inventory, OS updates, backups, bash scripts, a remote terminal that asks for an account on the computer, file transfer, and process and service management; screen sharing and chat are for Windows for now. macOS support is coming soon.
Can I try AadeeRMM next to Atera?
Yes. Install the AadeeRMM agent on a few computers alongside your current agent and use both for the 14-day trial, then move customers over one at a time.
Is AadeeRMM connected to Atera?
No. AadeeRMM is made by Aadee Infosys Ltd and is not affiliated with or endorsed by Atera.
