Automation Theory swiftly resolved our Automate critical server issues during CrowdStrike outage
July 30, 2024We cannot express enough gratitude to Automation Theory for their incredible support during the recent CrowdStrike bug that took down half of the internet. Our MSP was impacted, with all our clients’ endpoints and our ConnectWise Automate server experiencing a BSOD. This outage brought our operations to a halt. After remediating the BSOD on our Automate server, we weren’t able to get Automate to start, with the LabMySQL service crashing consistently.
In the early hours of Friday morning. at 5:43 am, we reached out to Automation Theory, desperate for assistance. To our immense relief, we received a prompt response by 6:21 am, offering a virtual meeting to address the issue. By 9 am, thanks to their expertise and swift action, our Automate server was up and running smoothly again, despite the challenging circumstances.
Automation Theory’s professionalism, responsiveness, and technical proficiency were outstanding. Their ability to resolve our critical issues on such short notice, especially during a global outage, was nothing short of impressive. We highly recommend Automation Theory to any organization in need of reliable Automate consulting.
Thank you, Automation Theory, for your exceptional service and dedication.
Yanky BreierNo Hassle, Just Success: Automate Migration!
May 15, 2024Given the complexity and potential for disruption, I was initially apprehensive about the ConnectWise Automate server migration. However, I am thrilled to say that our experience with Automation Theory was outstanding. Jeremy and the team handling the migration not only met but exceeded our expectations. The morning after our migration, we encountered zero issues, and we are extremely pleased with our decision to have Automation Theory complete this migration.
Chris BrannonJeremy Oaks is an asset to your organisation.
September 24, 2023Jeremy jumped into a priority issue for us last week and performed amazingly….. He got us back up and running in a matter of hours.
Jeremy is amazing and we will be formalising our relationship as a result of Jeremy’s knowledge, skills and commitment.
Well done Jemery!
