Why Datto MSPs Need a Monthly Report

Monthly reports are the backbone of client communication. They demonstrate the value you deliver, justify your fees, and build the trust that drives long-term retention. Without them, clients only notice IT when something breaks.

Datto Autotask LiveReports Designer with Express (quick) and Standard (advanced) report creation. Pre-built Standard reports by category. Dashboard widgets with auto-refresh. However, these built-in reports are typically designed for internal operations — not for client communication. This template bridges that gap with a professional, client-ready format structured around Datto's data exports.

Datto is best for: MSPs who need the most powerful built-in reporting and are invested in the Datto/Kaseya ecosystem.

Datto Monthly Report FAQ

Navigate to Service Desk > Ticket Search. Configure field filters and date range Click Search to display results See the full export guide above for detailed steps.

Does Datto have built-in client reporting?

LiveReports Designer with Express (quick) and Standard (advanced) report creation. Pre-built Standard reports by category. Dashboard widgets with auto-refresh. This template complements Datto's built-in reporting by providing a professional, client-ready format that non-technical stakeholders can easily understand.

Can I automate this monthly report with Datto?

Datto's built-in automation can schedule data exports, but assembling a professional client-facing report still requires manual formatting. This template handles the presentation layer — you provide the data. Datto also offers REST API, legacy SOAP API, Webhooks, and Data Warehouse access. Postman collection available.

How often should I send monthly reports?

Send them within the first week of each new month, covering the previous month's data. Consistency matters more than perfection — clients value predictability.

What metrics should I highlight?

Focus on ticket resolution time, SLA compliance percentage, system uptime, and any security incidents. These are the numbers your clients care about most.

Should I include technical details?

Keep the executive summary non-technical. You can include a technical appendix for IT-savvy contacts, but most client stakeholders want business outcomes, not server logs.

How long should a monthly report be?

Aim for 3-5 pages. Enough to demonstrate value, short enough to actually get read. Use charts and visuals over dense text.
