Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"HEAT Service Management is good for asset and service desk management. It is the focal point for this solution."
"This is an excellent alternative to ServiceNow for smaller companies."
"It is easy to set up."
"Primarily, I believe the focus lies on discovery, workflow configuration, and automation."
"I like Cloud Neurons. Since it's a cloud version, it's much easier to enhance productivity because it collects all the information automatically."
"Overall, the platform, in its abilities, is really powerful, especially now with AI as a part of hyper-automation."
"The solution's technical support is excellent. I rate the technical support a ten out of ten."
"The solution's installation depends on its customization. It is easy."
"The solution's most valuable feature is related to its remote access...I know that NinjaOne's technical support is good."
"Good at managing updates and for remote support."
"The policies are probably the most valuable features. They're similar in function to Microsoft group policies where we can have it monitor certain things or push out software on a schedule. I would rate the policies eight out of 10. They're robust, I could monitor most of the things that Windows Performance Monitoring keeps tabs on."
"The installation is easy, it only took two minutes."
"NinjaOne's best feature is its monitoring."
"It helps us to be able to have visibility into the overall performance of the servers, laptops, and desktops that we are managing currently."
"The most important aspect of this tool is the security it provides our company."
"The most valuable feature we have found currently is probably patch management."
 

Cons

"The user interface must be made simpler and more effective."
"We'd like more integration with solutions like SolarWinds."
"The patching for non-Windows OSes such as Linux is poor."
"Ivanti Neurons for ITSM's support model is not very strong. You should buy professional services. Its self-service portal and survey are extremely lacking. You cannot customize it, and it doesn't look very good. The solution does not have a strong community."
"Ivanti Neurons for ITSM is not a user-friendly tool when compared to ServiceNow."
"Support needs improvement in terms of responsiveness and timeliness."
"Configuration requirements are extensive, even in basic Service Desk processes."
"Sometimes I can't get the reports that I want until I go to the manager. They need to put more into the new reports. The standard reports are great, but there do not communicate as much."
"I would like to see more scripts for PowerShell commands."
"NinjaOne's reporting module is cumbersome."
"The graphical user interface could be improved."
"The reporting is lackluster. NinjaOne is great for maintaining systems, but it's hard to use it to understand the state that systems are in without going in and mining the information myself. I rate the reporting two out of 10."
"There was a lot of delay with NinjaOne's ticketing system. For example, when a user creates a ticket and raises an issue, it would take 30 to 40 minutes to appear on the IT side. So the time delay issue is the main point."
"The remote connectivity could be better. It works most of the time, but sometimes, there are issues."
"The ticketing system in NinjaOne is not the best."
"The NinjaOne distribution server is highly dependent on an active directory."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price is on the higher side. The support is included in the standard licensing fees."
"If you want to add more users who can handle support there will be additional fees. What we call our extensions, we need to pay more for. They tell us that we need to acquire more licenses or something like that. I think it's very expensive, because in terms the pula, our local currency, it's about 20,000 per license for each user. It is an annual fee."
"The product is affordable for small businesses."
"I came to know from my team members that my company used to operate ServiceNow but shifted to Ivanti Neurons for ITSM due to its low licensing prices."
"NinjaOne's price is fine since my workplace is an educational institution, so we get the product at a really good price considering that we do not pay taxes, making the prices very fair and worth the product."
"The pricing is reasonable and cheaper than ConnectWise."
"It roughly costs $400 a month. It provides a good value because of the number of tools that you get in the solution. I would rate it a four out of five in terms of pricing. There are no additional costs other than the standard licensing fees."
"NinjaRMM uses a subscription model."
"Its pricing is great."
"We got a pretty good deal. It was fairly affordable."
"The product's pricing depends on the number of PCs or devices."
"We currently pay $1.20 per device on a monthly basis."
