ConnectWise Automate Plugin Automates Windows 10 Upgrades
The people over at Plugins4Automate have released the latest version of their Patch Remedy plugin for ConnectWise Automate which now upgrades older Windows 10 versions to current Windows 10 versions. For quite some time Patch Remedy has worked to keep each version of Windows 10 up to date inside of its version but today Patch Remedy goes to the next step and upgrades older versions of Windows 10 to the latest 1709 version. Plugins4Automate worked with the LabTech community to create a tool to assist MSPs with the daunting task of upgrading Windows 10 versions using ConnectWise Automate.

They have user interactive controls for Windows 10 Upgrades, If users of a PC are logged in during upgrades, setup a special message to be displayed during the upgrade process.

These tools allows a MSP to easily upgrade 1 or hundreds of Windows 10 systems at one time. If your MSP needs a Windows 10 Upgrade solutions then Patch Remedy is a must see.
A MSP is only as good as it’s deliverables!
If agents are offline you can’t deliver your services. If you can not deliver your service your patching stats suffer!
Improves Windows Patching up to 25% MSP wide!
That’s correct, connecting with your end users before maintenance cycles improves density. This plugin will send out a Windows popup message with a personal message from your MSP politely asking them to leave their desktops running to allow the critical patching to complete. A simple reminder at the end of the workday to desktop users will pay off with improved patching coverage across your MSP.

Patch Remedy To The Rescue For MSPs Using ConnectWise Automate
Another Ransomware
For the second time in just as many months, computer malware has been infecting consumers, businesses and government institutions around the world at a insane pace, locking files with encryption and extorting ransom payments to release the data again. This new global ransomware attack has targeted businesses around the world, demonstrating how easy it is for hackers to extort money by taking advantage of outdated technology. This new ransomware, security researchers says, the malware attack that spread from Ukraine appeared to be focused on damaging IT systems. The NotPetya malware is so-called because while it shares code with an earlier ransomware strain called Petya, it is “a new ransomware that has not been seen before”, according to security researchers at Kaspersky Lab. It requires infected businesses to send $300 in the cryptocurrency bitcoin to a payment address that appears hardcoded into the software.

Automation Nation 2017 was Awesome!

Automation Nation was June 21-23rd this year and it was another great event. Got to meet up with some really great people and had some good discussions about the future of ConnectWise Automate.

David Miller from Piriform, the makers of CCLeaner was there supporting the CCleaner product and promoting the CCleaner for LabTech plugin.

It was nice get a chance to meet personally to discuss collaborative ideas and methods of problem solving. It was not easy getting the 3 most influential people in the LabTech / Connectwise Automate community together for a photo op, but we were able to get a quick shot between break sessions.
