I am setting up a new RMM solution and my first thought was to create a VPN with active directory. It turned out to be harder than I expected so I'm looking for cost effective solutions.

The company I work for used to use pulseway but everyone who set it up either left or is deceased. It seems to be priced right and it seems to have all the features I need. If anything its overkill.

Has anyone here ever used it? I'm a bit scared of supply chain attacks but I think I can get over my fear with convenience and price.

VPN and AD should be pretty easy, especially for a home setup. Another option would be just getting a router than natively supports VPN.

This is a little bigger than just a hone setup. Anyway active directory needs DNS which I didn't want to do over a VPN.

Fair enough. You could run DNS on the domain controller, pretty common practice.

True but this devices are basicly embedded devices with auto login. Its simpler not to have to manage group policy

Just throwing stuff out there, no idea what your environment is. Never heard of RMM acronym either until this post lol seems like yet another buzzword, it's just configuration management right?
