We did not. We looked at Kaseya last year as a possible patch solution and were not sold.

We are however taking this opportunity to evaluate any patching solutions we have in place, especially anything with an 
agent, and dotting the i’s. We have a meeting with Qualys that has that capability for windows systems and going over 
the feature with them. Likely we will end up not using it in light of Kaseya VSA.

Interesting, Unitrends backup software is owned by Kaseya and I’m certain folks are thinking about that as well.
