Kaseya Software Roadmap

Test Pilot ProgramThis roadmap is meant to be a high-level/macro view of where we are heading as a company. The purpose is to provide directional visibility and is not intended to be a feature by feature list; as standard practice, we address this in our release notes. We have reviewed over 2,600 feature requests from our customers and have ranked those (with customer input) in order of demand/importance. As we plan for updating both the core functionality and the add-on modules, those requests are part of our process. In addition to those new features, Kaseya is also investing significant resources into performance improvements, scalability and architectural enhancements that may not be apparent in a roadmap. Be assured that we are committed to updating the roadmap regularly.
