ConnectWise Automate: How to Disable or Remove a Plugin

In this video, we will be going over how to disable and remove a plugin in ConnectWise Automate.

Step by Step:

Today I want to go over how to disable and remove a plugin from ConnectWise Automate.
The first thing you’ll want to do is open the plugin manager to do that you can click on system – Solutions plugin manager.
The plugin manager will show you all the plugins you currently have installed and whether they are enabled or disabled.
To disable one, you want to select it and either right-click then disabled or simply have it selected and click disabled up here.
Now that we have this one disabled to remove it what you’ll want to do is make sure that it’s selected, click on Advanced, go to manage plugins, and remove plugin.
It’ll ask for confirmation to remove it and then you can click yes.
Now it’s disappeared from here the last thing to do to remove this is to reload the database agent which you can do from advanced, reload plugins, and then reload DB agent plugins.
A quick note on restarting the database agent is that it will cancel all scripts that are currently running or in queue and while it’s restarting your Automate will be unavailable for a couple minutes.
So I’ll click no here but when you click yes you’ll have a progress bar up here on the bottom left of this window and once that’s done your DB agent will be reloaded and Automate will be back up and that’s how you disable and remove a plugin from ConnectWise Automate.

ConnectWise Automate: How to Disable or Remove a Plugin

I truly view ProVal as a partner and extension of my team, not as one of my vendors

When our NOC Manager left last fall we wanted to replace the position with an outsourced NOC to reduce headcount, and bring in an expert to both Labtech and our backup solutions. Bringing in ProVal Technologies was one of the best decisions we made last year and has paid for itself.During our first few monthly recurring Labtech admin meetings the ProVal team discovered incorrect settings and policies that were not applying correctly in our Labtech server. Things that we thought were automated and working were not. For example, there were multiple scripts and policies running but set to do nothing such as disk cleanup scripts. Cisco Umbrella was not configured correctly. Server alerting was not set right and the list went on.The backup team sends daily and weekly reports and updates that reduce my technicians time that we used to spend on backup or antivirus tickets that took forever and were tedious.ProVal also brings in great insights to our business and really cares about our success. They will frequently mention to me in meetings what new scripts they can import to make us more efficient or will schedule upgrades to our backups, Labtech, etc so I don’t have to worry. I truly view ProVal as a partner and extension of my team not as one of my vendors.

They will quickly become an extension of your team and your ROI will reflect the results

We have been a long time user of Labtech and had tried for many years to manage the product internally with no real success at the level we needed to make our solutions more efficient for our customers. Once we hired Vikram and his team at ProVal, it solved all our pain points with the product and we really felt like we were leveraging the tool as it was designed. If this sounds like you and it’s keeping you up at night, then you need these guys. They will quickly become an extension of your team and your ROI will reflect the results.

They work well, fast and on budget

We met Vikram from ProVal Tech at Gary Pica’s Shnizzfest a year ago. Vikram explained the advantage of having trained, certified personnel take care of our recent Automate implementation. Even though we had taken an implementation package from ConnectWise to start up the program, we felt many custom configurations we needed for our business were lacking. We hired ProVal Tech after Automate was installed to help us with this task. From sales to technicians everyone was professional and knowledgeable. Onboarding was simple, and well documented. Tools on the web were supplied while we did the work, and they allowed us to track what was done, and see the improvements in the environment. It was easy to reach any of the team members, for any concern or question – all answered with courtesy and smile. Once the work was finished, we were given some training and explanations, add to that documentation, about the work and the scripts and features added to the program. We have been happily working with Automate since then. We can only recommend this efficient team of people for any work into Automate: they work well, fast and on budget.
