What is ImmyBot? A complete guide for MSPs in 2026

What is ImmyBot? A complete guide for MSPs in 2026

ImmyBot is an automation platform for MSPs that sets up and maintains Windows computers using desired state configuration. You define the software and settings each user role needs, assign a user to a machine, and ImmyBot installs and configures everything. Pricing starts at $400 a month after a 14-day free trial.

Setting up a new workstation used to mean hours of imaging, checklists, and bespoke scripts. For MSPs managing dozens or hundreds of endpoints across multiple clients, that manual approach doesn't scale. ImmyBot is an IT automation platform built specifically to solve this problem. It lets you define how workstations should be configured, then handles the deployment automatically.

Here's the short version: instead of telling a technician to install Office, configure VPN, set browser defaults, and join the domain, you define those requirements once. When a new machine comes online, you assign a user and click "onboard." ImmyBot does the rest.

What is ImmyBot and how does it work?

ImmyBot is a desired state enforcement tool for MSPs and IT departments. Rather than scripting every step of a deployment, you define the end state (what software should be installed, which settings applied, how the machine should be configured) and the platform figures out how to get there.

The company was founded to eliminate the tedious work of computer imaging and manual checklists. The core value proposition is straightforward: deploy workstations in minutes instead of hours. This matters because technician time is expensive, and inconsistent deployments create support debt down the line.

The platform fits into the standard MSP tool stack alongside your PSA (ConnectWise Manage, Halo) and RMM (N-central, Automate). It doesn't replace those tools. It handles the specific problem of initial workstation setup and ongoing software maintenance, which most RMMs do poorly.

Automated workstation onboarding

The onboarding workflow starts with defining your standards. You set up required apps, settings, and configurations by user role and subscription type. This means a salesperson gets a different software loadout than an engineer, and the system knows the difference because it reads your PSA agreement data.

Workstation configuration state enforcement without manual intervention

When a new machine needs setup, you assign a user to the computer and trigger onboarding. ImmyBot deploys software automatically and in the correct order according to your rules. It configures system settings like VPN, browser defaults, and power plans without manual work.

The key benefit is consistency. Every machine configured through ImmyBot meets the same standards, which reduces the "why does this user's setup look different?" tickets that waste technician time.

Software deployment and maintenance

ImmyBot includes a library of pre-built software packages covering common MSP tools. You can also upload your own custom software for auto-packaging. For niche software, you can upload your own installer files and the platform builds a custom deployment script with install and detection logic.

The platform supports both scheduled maintenance and ad-hoc deployments. Scheduled tasks run periodically to enforce your desired state. Ad-hoc deployments let you push zero-day patches or urgent updates immediately without waiting for the next maintenance window.

For scripting, ImmyBot uses PowerShell with built-in helper functions and an editor that includes intellisense and code formatting. You can write custom scripts when the pre-built library doesn't cover your needs.

Integration ecosystem

ImmyBot integrates with most major MSP tools:

  • PSA: ConnectWise Manage, Autotask, HaloPSA, Cloud Radial
  • RMM: N-able N-central, ConnectWise Automate, Datto RMM, Kaseya VSA, NinjaRMM
  • Security: SentinelOne, Huntress, ThreatLocker, CrowdStrike, Blackpoint, Bitdefender, Acronis
  • Identity: Microsoft 365, Azure AD, Duo
  • Remote access: ScreenConnect
  • VPN: Cisco AnyConnect, OpenVPN

Integrations enabling automated deployments based on license and user data

These integrations let you target deployments using data from your existing tools. If a user has a Microsoft Project license in your PSA, ImmyBot installs Project. If they have QuickBooks, it installs QuickBooks.

Security and compliance

ImmyBot is SOC 2 Type II compliant. Each customer runs in an isolated instance with separate databases, services, and storage, which minimizes cross-tenant risk. Authentication uses Microsoft Entra ID (SSO is standard at no extra cost), and the platform provides full audit logging for every action.

The company says they don't sell customer data. For security-conscious MSPs, the platform can also deploy and maintain your security stack across endpoints.

The four-stage workflow

The workflow follows four stages:

  1. Define your desired state. Set up required apps, settings, and configurations by user role. Use the curated software library or upload custom packages. ImmyBot dynamically builds an action list tailored to each machine.

  2. Assign and onboard. Assign a user to a computer and click "onboard." Software deploys automatically in the correct order, with system settings configured without manual work.

  3. Enforce compliance. Create schedules to ensure your desired state is maintained. ImmyBot is idempotent (it only takes action when needed) and includes retries and validation.

  4. Handle exceptions. For urgent updates or unexpected situations, deploy patches in real-time or issue remote wipes without waiting for schedules.

The platform uses an ephemeral agent model when integrated with RMM tools like N-central. This means it can execute tasks on endpoints without requiring a permanent ImmyBot installation, reducing the footprint on managed machines.

ImmyBot pricing

ImmyBot pricing starts at $400 per month for the base subscription after a 14-day free trial (no credit card required). This includes core onboarding features, SSO, remote control (currently free during beta), Windows OOBE setup, the global software catalog, custom software upload, script editor, Windows updates, hardware auto-updates for Dell/HP/Lenovo, and Azure AD sync.

Plan Component Price Includes
Base subscription $400/mo Core onboarding, SSO, remote control (beta), software catalog, script editor, Windows/hardware updates, Azure AD sync
Ongoing Maintenance Priced per maintenance slot Scheduled maintenance, ad-hoc deployments, third-party patching, user computer affinity, Azure AD migration

The Ongoing Maintenance add-on is priced by the number of computers you keep under maintenance each month, with a lower per-device rate at higher volume. ImmyBot's pricing page no longer lists a dollar figure for it as of September 2026, so ask sales for a quote. Onboarding itself stays unlimited on the base plan.

Maintenance features include the ability to deploy to existing computers (after a 7-day onboarding period), scheduled maintenance windows, third-party patching for non-Microsoft applications, and user computer affinity for targeted deployments.

ImmyBot vs Intune, Ninite, and custom scripts

ImmyBot Intune and Autopilot Ninite Custom scripts and imaging
Built for MSPs and multi-client IT Single organizations on Microsoft 365 Basic software installs Whatever you build
Desired state enforcement Yes Policy-based configuration No Only what you script
PSA integrations ConnectWise, Autotask, HaloPSA No No Only what you script
Ongoing maintenance Yes, with the maintenance add-on Yes App updates Manual upkeep
Setup effort Define rules once per role Moderate Low High, per machine

Microsoft Intune/Autopilot is the native Microsoft option for Windows deployment. It integrates deeply with Microsoft 365 and Azure AD but lacks the multi-tenant architecture and PSA integrations that MSPs need. If you're managing endpoints for a single company, Intune works well. For MSPs juggling multiple clients, ImmyBot's tenant isolation and PSA integrations are significant advantages.

Ninite offers simpler software deployment but lacks the desired state enforcement, scripting capabilities, and deep integrations that ImmyBot provides. It's a good fit for basic software installation but doesn't handle complex configuration or ongoing maintenance.

Custom scripting and imaging is the traditional approach. It works but doesn't scale. Every script needs maintenance, imaging takes hours per machine, and consistency depends on technicians following checklists perfectly.

Tool comparison showing ImmyBot's multi-tenant management for MSPs

MSPs choose ImmyBot when they need to scale workstation deployments without adding headcount. The platform's value is in consistency and speed: every machine gets the same configuration, and it happens in minutes rather than hours.

Who should use ImmyBot, and how to start

ImmyBot fits several specific scenarios:

  • MSP owners who want to serve more clients without hiring. Automated onboarding lets existing staff handle more endpoints.
  • Technicians tired of repetitive setup work, since the platform removes the checklists and manual configuration that eat hours each week.
  • IT departments managing multiple environments, where the multi-tenant architecture and role-based deployments handle varied user needs.
  • Teams already running a PSA or RMM that ImmyBot integrates with, because it pulls data from your existing stack.

ImmyBot shines when you need consistent deployments at scale. If you're setting up one machine a month, it's probably overkill. If you're onboarding dozens of workstations across multiple clients, the time savings add up quickly.

One MSP owner put it this way: "We took workstation installs from four to six hours down to one, maybe two hours at most. That's a huge benefit all around for everybody."

Getting started

The onboarding process is straightforward:

  1. Start the free trial. 14 days, no credit card required. You can test every feature before committing.

  2. Connect your integrations. Link ImmyBot to your PSA and RMM tools so it can pull customer data and deploy through your existing agents.

  3. Build your first deployment rules. Define what software and settings different user roles need. Start with one client or department.

  4. Test on a small batch. Onboard 3-5 machines to verify your rules work as expected.

  5. Expand to your full client base. Once you're confident in the configuration, roll out to remaining endpoints.

The platform includes Windows out-of-box experience (OOBE) integration, so you can use a USB to skip initial Windows setup and have the agent install automatically. For the wider process around it, see our guide to zero-touch deployment for MSPs.

Where Rallied fits after deployment

ImmyBot and Rallied solve different problems in the MSP workflow. ImmyBot handles "day 0": getting a new machine imaged, software installed, and settings configured. After that, users start creating tickets: password resets, account unlocks, permission changes, and the hundred small requests that fill an MSP's queue.

Rallied is an AI agent that resolves requests in your PSA. It handles the "day 2" work: password resets, account unlocks, mailbox permissions, and Microsoft 365 user changes. It connects to your PSA, RMM, identity provider, and documentation, and resolves those tickets itself.

The combination looks like this: ImmyBot deploys a consistent workstation in minutes. When that user emails about a password reset, Rallied verifies their identity, resets the password, notifies them, and closes the ticket without a technician touching it.

If your pain point is deployment speed and consistency, ImmyBot is the right tool. If your pain point is ticket volume and technician time spent on routine requests, Rallied is worth evaluating. See how Rallied compares to other AI alternatives or explore specific use cases. Many MSPs will find they need both: one for day-zero setup, one for day-two support.
