Datto RMM is a capable cloud RMM (now part of Kaseya). RMMmax is a transparent, no-contract automation layer that runs on top of Datto RMM — adding AI, deeper cross-OS patching, and CVE intelligence.
If you want a mature, Windows-strong cloud RMM with tight Autotask PSA integration, Datto RMM is solid. If you want transparent flat pricing, no committed minimums, deeper Mac/Linux patching, AI automation, and CVE intelligence — added on for $50/mo — RMMmax is built for that, alongside Datto RMM or standalone.
| RMMmax | Datto RMM (Kaseya) | |
|---|---|---|
| Pricing | Public & flat — $0 / $50 / $150 per month | Per-endpoint, quote-based; Kaseya committed-minimum model (2025) |
| Free tier | Yes — 10 agents free, forever | No |
| Contract | Month-to-month | Term contract with committed minimums |
| Works alongside your existing RMM | Yes — layers on Datto RMM via API | No — it is the RMM |
| Cross-OS patching (Win/macOS/Linux) | Strong across all three | Strong on Windows; lighter on Mac/Linux |
| AI automation / MCP server | Yes — 47 AI functions via MCP | Emerging / add-on |
| CVE intelligence (NVD + CISA KEV) | Built-in | Via add-ons / integrations |
| Mature cloud RMM + PSA (Autotask) | Automation layer or lean standalone | Yes — established, tight PSA integration |
Connect RMMmax via API for AI automation, cross-OS patching, and CVE intelligence — flat $50/mo, no migration.
It can, but most MSPs keep Datto RMM and add RMMmax as the automation layer via API. No disruption to Autotask or billing.
RMMmax patches Windows, macOS, and Linux uniformly — useful if your Datto setup is Windows-centric.
The automation layer is flat $50/mo for up to 1,500 agents, transparent — not a full-RMM swap, a low-cost addition.
