Acronis RMM: Revolutionizing how MSPs administer client services
Acronis RMM distinguishes itself from competitive solutions as a security-first platform designed for MSP 3.0 transformation, delivering native integration and AI-powered automation that traditional RMMs cannot match.
Unlike siloed endpoint management tools that rely on fragile third-party integrations, Acronis RMM is natively integrated into the comprehensive Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud Platform, unifying RMM with XDR, backup and disaster recovery and PSA in a single console and agent.

- Comprehensive security integration with vulnerability and patch management covering more than 300 third-party applications, as well as Device Sense™ network discovery and enterprise-class remote assistance — all secured by native cybersecurity protections.
- Microsoft 365 Security Posture Management that extends RMM capabilities beyond endpoint monitoring to SaaS protection, enabling MSPs to turn operational burdens into scalable, revenue-generating services.
- Unprecedented flexibility, allowing seamless deployment with third-party professional services automation (PSA) tools while maintaining the benefits of native platform integration.
- Malware-free task automation through Cyber Scripting and DeployPilot,™ ensuring secure software deployment and system administration with built-in threat protection and authenticity verification.
The power of proactive IT management
RMM enables IT professionals to monitor clients' network infrastructure remotely and ensure systems are running smoothly and efficiently. The technology not only enables proactive maintenance and issue resolution but also provides comprehensive insights into network performance.
Acronis RMM provides MSPs with the tools they need to transition to MSP 3.0 and shift from reactive problem-solving to proactive system optimization. This approach not only improves client satisfaction but also creates new revenue opportunities for service providers.
