Kaseya commits to product investment in Datto acquisition

After the proposed $6.2 billion acquisition of Datto closes later this year, Kaseya intends to invest in and support Datto’s MSP solutions. Remote monitoring and management (RMM) and professional services automation are among the products offered by both companies (PSA).

Kaseya and Datto each established product suites that automate the essential aspects of a managed service provider’s operation, frequently through acquisition. The acquisition deal between Kaseya and Datto was announced on April 11 and is anticipated to finalize in the second half of 2022.

Kaseya will provide “multiple solutions” in areas like RMM and PSA once it merges with Datto, according to Fred Voccola, Kaseya’s CEO. Customers will not be forced to quit their selected software, he emphasized.

“We will support all products moving forward,” Voccola said. According to him, the Datto-acquired products will be incorporated into Kaseya’s IT Complete platform. Kaseya’s MSP products are housed on the platform, which also includes past acquisitions like IT Glue, a documentation software vendor.
