For MSPs FAQ for infrastructure monitoring tools

What infrastructure monitoring tools features do MSPs need?

+

Multi-tenant dashboards with per-client isolation, PSA integration (ConnectWise, Autotask, Halo), white-label portals, per-technician or per-endpoint pricing with volume discounts, automated alerting with NOC escalation, and reporting that doubles as client deliverables.

How should MSPs evaluate infrastructure monitoring tools pricing?

+

Compare per-technician (unlimited endpoints) vs per-endpoint models. For MSPs managing 500+ endpoints with 2-3 technicians, per-technician pricing is almost always cheaper. Factor in PSA integration costs, add-on modules, and minimum commit requirements.

Can MSPs use the same infrastructure monitoring tools tools as internal IT?

+

Some tools serve both markets (NinjaOne, Datto), but MSP-specific features like multi-tenancy, white-labeling, and PSA integration are usually only available in MSP-tier plans. Internal IT tools (Intune, SCCM) lack multi-tenant architecture entirely.
