N-able N-sight Remote Monitoring & Management vs NinjaOne comparison

"The most valuable aspect of N-able Remote Monitoring & Management is it provides an all-in solution for the different solutions."

"The most helpful feature is script deployment because we can create whatever we want to deploy on our devices. This works in a cloud environment, where we previously relied on Active Directory. Since the start of the COVID outbreak, all the staff members began working from home, and most of the people there did not use the VPN to transfer the policies."

"Remote support has been very handy. It also lets us know if there are failing hard drives or Windows issues."

"We like that this solution is in real-time, it gives us real-time monitoring."

"I like being able to get a picture of what's happening on a computer. I can just click on it, and I can see the CPU usage and the memory usage and what services and programs are currently running. I can connect remotely to a computer. All these are very useful."

"The solution provides an administration panel where we can see what is happening on our client's stations, such as events, alerts, and all the software installed."

"The network device is a good feature. In a place where you need to monitor your firewall switches, you can add an RMM tool and monitor it on the same screen on the same setup for the same client. Network devices are very good."

"The details and the reports they provide are what I like, especially the details for almost the whole computer and the OS type."

"The most valuable features of NinjaOne include remote desktop management, support and assistive tools, and screen sharing."

"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."

"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 solution's most valuable feature is related to its remote access...I know that NinjaOne's technical support is good."

"NinjaOne helps us view the status of software patching, whether the PC is locked or unlocked."

"The best feature of NinjaOne is the SLA system. Every IT person can check their performance, how long it takes to resolve an issue, and how many SLAs are breached."

"The most valuable feature we have found currently is probably patch management."

"Good at managing updates and for remote support."

"The product looks a bit old-fashioned."

"The patch management of the solution could improve."

"It would be great if the pricing model could be improved and the solution was more affordable."

"There are disconnection issues sometimes."

"What could be improved in N-able N-sight Remote Monitoring & Management is the reporting, in particular, the reporting interface and the report generation method. Currently, I don't find it easy to run reports on the solution. Every time, if I want a report on a Windows vulnerability because a client requested that report, I find the process difficult. For example, out of one hundred PCs, I need to get a report on how many PCs have not been updated to a specific patch level. I need to give that report to the CTO or CEO of a particular client organization, and as running the report on N-able N-sight Remote Monitoring & Management isn't easy, sometimes, that makes me doubt the validity of the generated report as well. It depends on each case because I do find some reports to be genuine and 100% correct, but most of the time, I have to ask for help from other engineers, and even collaborating with another engineer to run reports isn't that easy, so reporting needs improvement in N-able N-sight Remote Monitoring & Management. Another room for improvement in the solution is patch management. The user-friendliness of the Take Control feature in N-able N-sight Remote Monitoring & Management also needs improvement, particularly when it's used on multiple computers or displays. Switching between displays isn't as user-friendly on the technician side, so that could be improved by letting you see all displays or monitors all at once, or on a single display, rather than needing to switch from one display to another. As Take Control is on a Windows agent, or running on a client-end device, that feature of N-able N-sight Remote Monitoring & Management could be improved as well. An additional feature I'd like to see in the next release of the solution is a mobile application, though I'm not familiar if that's already available. As an IT MSP, sometimes I have on-call jobs, and I don't always want to look at the mailbox to see if there's any alert triggered from the devices. If N-able N-sight Remote Monitoring & Management has a mobile application that would allow my team to get push notifications whenever there's downtime or issues, then that would make the solution more reliable. I'd like to get an alert that would pop up from my mobile device, so it would be pretty easy to keep an eye on alerts, and I won't have to check my inbox every time."

"We haven't had it for very long, and we're finally getting comfortable with it. The biggest improvement probably would be a little more clarification. It has few exclamation points or attention-getters when there is a computer that doesn't have the up-to-date patches, etc. However, it's not specific in terms of what you need to do. Sometimes, it says it requires a reboot, and you reboot it, but the same message still shows up. Sometimes, the messages that it gives you about how to resolve an issue are not very easy to understand."

"The SentinelOne integration is not great."

"The solutions could improve by adding more features."

"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."

"NinjaOne's reporting module is cumbersome."

"I would like to see the software reduced to focus on inventory or remote help tools since many of its current functionalities are not needed."

"The NinjaOne distribution server is highly dependent on an active directory."

"The ticketing system in NinjaOne is not the best."

"NinjaOne's pricing and user interface needs improvement."

"Improvements could be made to reduce NinjaOne's functionalities to focus more on inventory or remote help tools."

"The remote connectivity could be better. It works most of the time, but sometimes, there are issues."

"It's expensive and out of our budget."

"As I'm not part of the procurement team and because I'm 100% technical, I'm not that familiar with the costs associated with N-able N-sight Remote Monitoring & Management, but I can say that in my location, particularly here in Sri Lanka, it's more expensive than other RMM solutions. I'm working for an Australian IT MSP, and over there, the solution isn't as expensive, but where I'm located, it is, so this is the reason why sometimes, clients don't go with N-able N-sight Remote Monitoring & Management. Licensing cost is also the reason why my organization is looking into Kaseya RMM. My current organization merged with another organization that's using both Kaseya RMM and Connectwise."

"We use SolarWinds RMM on a pay-as-you-go monthly basis, so the cost can be highly variable because it depends on a few factors such as how many devices you need to support and what extra features you want to use. The more devices you have, the more you'll pay, and the same goes for extras."

"There is a license required for this solution."

"The product is fairly priced."

"Out clients pay monthly for the license of N-able Remote Monitoring & Management."

"I haven't paid a whole lot of attention to that since I set it up. It has per-user licensing. If I remember it correctly, it worked out to about $10 a month per user. There were no additional costs. It was pretty straightforward and simple."

"The solution is not very expensive."

"I rate the solution’s pricing a five out of ten, where one is the lowest and ten is the most expensive."

"We currently pay $1.20 per device on a monthly basis."

"The product's pricing depends on the number of PCs or devices."

"Its pricing is great."

"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."

"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."

"NinjaOne is a little expensive but is still cheaper than competitors like Acronis or Veeam."
