Switching

Moving from Kaseya VSA 10

A calm move, not a big bang. Run both side by side until your team is happy.

  1. 1

    Set up customers and sites

    There is no automatic import from VSA, so add your customers and sites first. Enrolment tokens then tie each device to the right customer.

    Customers, sites and contacts
  2. 2

    Recreate your policies

    Set monitoring checks, thresholds and patch policies at global, customer and device group level. The defaults suit most MSPs, so you may only need a few changes.
