Real-time data and insights with a smooth UI
The primary use case of Nexthink is for IT service management and ticket time reduction. We use it to get real-time data, as Nexthink provides data in real-time with a maximum delay of five minutes Nexthink is valuable for showing real-time data. We also appreciate the smooth UI and dashboard.…

Real-time monitoring and dashboards with cost-saving licensing
SysTrack requires significant improvements. Sometimes clients experience broken links where the service doesn't run on the user's machine, causing outdated data to display. For instance, a machine's last reboot might be inaccurately shown as seven days ago instead of two days ago. Additionally, real-time data syncing issues lead to delays, requiring this to be addressed, as data might be several hours old.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Nexthink allows our customers to have visibility into their whole environment and security. And it lets you install the agent as a package for selected users instead of every user. This helps cut down on the delay involved in a bulk installation."
"This is a proactive management tool and we make use of the metrics, dashboard creation and complete remote actions on end user machines."
"Overall, I would recommend Nexthink as a first priority and rate it ten out of ten."
"The solution's most valuable features are its cloud capabilities, particularly the dashboards and metrics."
"The search engine functionality that Nexthink has on the finder is terrific."
"The auto building capability has been most valuable. It keeps on checking the system in terms of various factors like battery, memory usage and application usage."
"Nexthink is valuable for showing real-time data."
"We have found the combination of analytics and automation in this solution to be very valuable to our organization, as it allows for us to perform auto-resolution on customer issues."
"We are using the SysTrack 'Prevent' module, which shows real-time discrepancies in the infrastructure."
"From a telemetry data standpoint, it's a perfect tool."
"When you search for a machine or a user, the way we get the information is very helpful. The GUI provides us with all the information about that machine that a user is accessing. It tells us about the CPU, memory, etc. The GUI and the details provided are very helpful."
"The Resolve part is valuable. It allows the service desk team to perform a couple of fixes or things to mitigate an incident before it's escalated to L2 or L3. It's a cool feature. If you have the sensor activity for Outlook and something has gone wrong, even the service desk can take those steps."
"SysTrack saves significant time for our personnel by reducing the ticket handling time by approximately seventy percent."
"The visualizer feature provides end-to-end analysis on all the machines."
"SysTrack monitors user experience and represents it in the form of a composite score. The scores are placed on a timeline, so you can see how it has gotten better or worse compared to two weeks ago. It gives you a score at the personal, unit, and organizational levels. For example, the score for my entire organization in SysTrack is 77. It's also effective for monitoring user experience and resources in a VDI environment."
"It is a stable product. I would rate its stability a nine out of ten."
 

Cons

"Nexthink could have better integration with ITSM tools - at the moment, they only integrate with ServiceNow, so adding other tools, like HP SMAX, would be very useful."
"There are many limitations. If I'm using a Windows 10 system and Windows has certain restrictions, Nexthink won't be able to penetrate into the Windows OS due to those restrictions."
"It lacks support for IoT and most network equipment."
"We've had some issues integrating Nexthink with the cloud, so there are some delays in bandwidth, causing it to slow down a little. If they added better integration with the public cloud, I would be more likely to recommend it to customers."
"We have provided them feedback on a few changes we would like to see with how alerting can work. Rather than have somebody looking at the network, if network utilization goes above a certain point, it would be helpful if the solution issued an alert to the right people."
"There could be a streamlined NQL and SQL query functionality, as it can be complex. An easier way to modify queries would be beneficial for the product."
"The solution could use better automation and less coding. Since I am part of the administrative background, I'm not completely into the development side. I'm not well versed in coding."
"They were having some limitations on the number of alerts that you can generate. This definitely needs to be increased."
"When I create a dashboard for a computer-based GPO or user-based GPO, I get details of all the GPOs, but the feature that we found missing is that SysTrack doesn't state how many seconds were required to apply a GPO. It doesn't tell us how many nanoseconds, seconds, or minutes it is taking to process or apply a GPO on a machine. This feature is not there. When there are major issues, if we have the processing time in place, it will help us to identify whether it could be an issue with the domain controller or something else. It would give us a clear understanding to engage other teams for resolving the issue."
"Sometimes clients experience broken links where the service doesn't run on the user's machine, causing outdated data to display."
"Their dashboard could be better. They did it custom, which is the main problem. They should have given an option to integrate it with some of the tools such as Power BI. Unfortunately, they are developing their own native dashboarding capabilities, which is killing them, in my view. The product is good, but dashboarding has been a pain area. I have to literally learn a new BI or dashboarding solution just for a system. We have 100 such kinds of solutions in our environment. If every solution has its custom solution for dashboarding, we can't survive. It is going to be crazy."
"The tool needs to improve the integration with third-party providers like Cisco products."
"Certain features haven't been tested sufficiently and don't work well."
"The solution lacks AI in its analysis module."
"One thing from a layman's standpoint, the report should be very clear."
"If I have my system running, and I'm changing my hardware in the VDI environment, I want to choose a date and see the difference before and after the event."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"With this implementation of the Act and Engage module, I believe that there is a one-time fee for a two-month period, which is for the support team to make additional customizations."
"Nexthink can pay for itself quickly if you identify and complete the most valuable use cases. The tool can do so much that to purely compare the price in a static way to other tools in your arsenal would be a mistake. If you do a more dynamic comparison that’s based on the overall functionality and use cases possible then it comes out cheaper. You need to consider it a relative measurement against potential use cases, size of the organization, maturity of organization, etc."
"I would rate the tool's pricing a nine out of ten. The tool's pricing model is pay-as-you-use."
"I have seen it help improve the user experience scores. This helped clients to save costs on another tool that they were trying to deploy in order to improve the user experience by just deploying some scripts. We were able to identify the issues and help them remediate those using our help. The process does not take much time and it provided background on end user performance. Therefore, they were able to save a lot, e.g., for approximately 50,000 endpoints at two dollars per machine per year, that is about $100,000 in savings."
"There are certain layers when it comes to pricing. The product has three layers and these layers are associated with certain sources. For example, the top layer have the premium services and the bottom layer has the basic services."
"I would rate the solution's pricing a six out of ten."
"It is on a per-device basis. It is not on a per-user basis. I was not much engaged in the licensing piece. I was only a part of the conversation about how we are going to scale up or down, but its price, for sure, is competitive."
"It is somewhat expensive."
"If you compare cloud solutions to SysTrack, which is on-premises, then SysTrack is cheaper. If you compare the cost of SysTrack with that of other similar solutions, the cost is similar. For each master server, there's a license. In terms of end user devices, the licenses are sold in multiplications of 10. That's one upfront cost. Once you procure the license, you can use the software for as long as you like. The maintenance is sold on an annual basis. Additional costs are related to hosting and include a SQL server license and Windows server licenses."
"Cost-wise, SysTrack has a higher rate than other products, such as Nanoheal, but the features that SysTrack has aren't there in any other product available in the market."
