I use Autotask daily to manage projects, tickets, contracts and pull reports required to fulfil my duties. Other than Teams and Outlook, its the platform I rely on most. Autotask is infinitely customisable so almost any business problem can be solved. Workflows allow automated events from notifications to status changes to be configured based on an unlimited list of triggers. Contract management and time entries for billing are a critical component of what MSPs do everyday. We use APIs to solve problems that can't be solved inside Autotask.The project management module is under developed though. Its impossible to view project tasks in a Kanban view and Autotask lacks features common in other platforms to make managing agile projects simple. If Autotask hadn't been so deeply integrated in our organisation, I might well be using something else for managing our projects. The procurement module is similar. Its apparent that the majority of Autotask's development budget is spent on the ticket management system. The knowledgebase section works well, but lacks the UI to make it a go to location for storage of the entire business's knowledge. It would be great to see some AI integration to assist engineers to solve tickets by suggesting fixes based on KB articles.
