Straightforward to set up and good support but needs to be on the cloud
I've used the solution for patch management and some fixing after other scanning and testing. We try to do the fixing from a single console under a single patch to improve efficiency It can provide good snapshots.  With other products, I have to write my own scripts. With this solution, I do not…

I use NinjaOne for managing smaller clients, specifically their devices and software, for small to medium businesses. I provide remote management services through NinjaOne. It allows clients to use NinjaOne for remote access to their computers for home office purposes. This feature is highly…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Technical support is helpful and responsive."
"What has been most valuable is the ability to manage, restore and install upgrades and applications. We scan PCs and server and receive results."
"It helps us to be able to have visibility into the overall performance of the servers, laptops, and desktops that we are managing currently."
"NinjaOne helps us view the status of software patching, whether the PC is locked or unlocked."
"We can use it for remote monitoring, and it also works great as a troubleshooting tool. We are able to open up a command line or a PowerShell session remotely without having to disrupt the user. They have a limited network device monitoring capability, but for workstation servers, we have the event logs. We can do performance monitoring, system changes, software deployment, and patch management. We can also push scripts. It has a very simple web interface. There are no additional things to do there. Security is also pretty good. It does the same things that the other competitor's tools do. One of the advantages of Ninja is that they have a more capable mobile app, which allows you to see the alerts immediately. I get alerted to major critical issues."
"NinjaOne's best feature is its monitoring."
"The software's automation tools have solved critical deployment problems for small businesses."
"NinjaOne has a feature where we can create custom scripts that we can run on devices remotely."
"The most valuable feature we have found currently is probably patch management."
"The customer support at NinjaOne is excellent, rated ten out of ten."
 

Cons

"It should be more scalable."
"For the Windows upgrade, the errors we experience are not clear. We see a time out error but do not know the reason. We would like to know the root cause."
"The network monitoring needs to be improved."
"It can have more integrations with third-party providers, such as Deep Instinct. They do partner with certain antivirus or remote access tool partners, but they can increase their portfolio to have more choices."
"Improvements could be made to reduce NinjaOne's functionalities to focus more on inventory or remote help tools."
"The inclusion of XENServer and Proxmox as virtual platforms in NinjaOne is currently missing."
"The inclusion of XENServer and Proxmox as virtual platforms in NinjaOne is currently missing."
"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."
"I wish that they integrated it with more antivirus solutions. Currently, they only push Defender, but it doesn't really have integration with SentinelOne. It also didn't integrate with Trend Micro, which we were using previously. I would also like to have more control from the mobile app. As of now, I am able to see some performance values, but I can't see, for example, disk activity or disk performance values. If they can improve their app a little bit, it would help greatly. They can also improve the tech interface. If I assign certain techs to a bunch of specific machines, they only get those alerts that they're assigned to."
"The solution could improve by optimizing the internet connection being used."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"We got a pretty good deal. It was fairly affordable."
"We currently pay $1.20 per device on a monthly basis."
"The pricing is reasonable and cheaper than ConnectWise."
"NinjaOne is a little expensive but is still cheaper than competitors like Acronis or Veeam."
"I rate the solution’s pricing a five out of ten, where one is the lowest and ten is the most expensive."
"NinjaRMM uses a subscription model."
