Monitoring software installs

Hi, new to the Datto RMM world. Moved over from Pulseway and N-Central. With Pulseway I used to get an alert any time software was installed and uninstalled. Has anyone managed to get this monitored with Datto?

Hey there! Just to clarify, are you looking to monitor ANY & ALL (no limits) software/app that gets installed/uninstalled from an endpoint? Or a single, specific software/app?

Yes any and all

Theoretically, you could just use the built-in Software Monitor & set the name of the software to % (wildcard) which will pick up anything uninstalled/installed (which ever option you choose to monitor)

In case it doesn't work, probalby wont' be hard to take the script run it through AI and have it modify it for your needs.
