Joseph Merusi - PeerSpot reviewer
Everything has worked better since we started using it
Sometimes the syncing is inconsistent. I'm confident that the devices are checking in every eight hours, but sometimes the devices aren't picking up the settings as quickly as I would expect. Some features haven't been updated in a while, and Microsoft doesn't seem interested in developing them. Unless you talk to an engineer, you don't know whether there will be an update. There are communication issues, so you might start working with a feature without knowing if it will be deprecated six months from now. Some reporting areas still need development. For example, I noticed that the reporting for driver updates is still confusing.

Enhances remote access and integration with third-party tools
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…

Easy to install and has lots of resources but need to improve performance
It's a remote access solution. We use it for conferences, meetings, and communication.  It works just like other communications tools. It also integrates well with Office 365 and Outlook, et cetera. The performance is good.  It's got a lot of resources for users.  The product is easy to install.…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It is a very stable and scalable cloud-only solution."
"The core management feature in Intune is invaluable to us, especially considering the challenges we often face with System Center when pushing external updates."
"I like how Intune deploys the policies and makes them customizable. You can deploy it through Intune and forget about it."
"The most valuable includes managing everything from a single console."
"I would rate the overall solution as a 10."
"Stable product that's easy to set up compared to other MDM products."
"The ability to block and erase remote devices is valuable to us, especially when those devices are lost."
"Everything has worked better since we started using Intune."
"NinjaOne's best feature is its monitoring."
"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 software's automation tools have solved critical deployment problems for small businesses."
"The customer support at NinjaOne is excellent, rated ten out of ten."
"The most relevant feature is the monitoring, which provides built-in tools for sending commands."
"Good at managing updates and for remote support."
"The most valuable feature we have found currently is probably patch management."
"It just works as advertised and serves the purpose for which we got it."
"TeamViewer is a scalable solution."
"I am satisfied with TeamViewer, and its performance."
"The most valuable features of TeamViewer are the high performance and it is not complicated to use, neither for me nor for the one I'm helping."
"The most important feature of TeamViewer is its ease of use."
"The implementation is quite straightforward."
"I don't know of any performance problems with TeamViewer - generally, it's a stable product."
"From my perspective, the most important is the login."
"The pilot feature is what stands out the most. I love the ability to use the pilot feature for remote inspections. The augmented portion of the software comes in handy when I have to assist my inspectors. They use the app in the field, and they show me what they're seeing through their phones."
 

Cons

"I would like to see better integration with Microsoft. There are a few things I can still do with Jamf that I am unable to do with Intune yet."
"The solution could be improved by the opportunity to connect third-party application databases, such as Chocolatey or another setup store, to Intune."
"If we could remote into a device, it would be great. Currently, we cannot directly connect to the user device. We have to use other tools such as VMware for connecting to devices."
"For autopilot, there should be more granularity on the settings that they offer at this stage."
"The reporting needs to be a bit more interactive."
"I rate Microsoft customer service six out of 10. While some technicians go above and beyond, there is inconsistency, and connecting with the most helpful representatives is occasionally challenging."
"Reporting could be improved. It needs to be more expensive and robust."
"We do not utilize Microsoft customer service and technical support since it is generally a waste of time."
"The network monitoring needs to be improved."
"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."
"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 graphical user interface could be improved."
"NinjaOne's reporting module is cumbersome."
"The inclusion of XENServer and Proxmox as virtual platforms in NinjaOne is currently missing."
"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."
"I have noticed that when I access another person's computer, sometimes the tab is visible, and sometimes it is not, which can be difficult."
"I didn't like the fact that you had to install a client for remote support. If you didn't install the client, you were very limited in terms of what you could do. For a whole enterprise, it is just not an easy task to install a client on everything. Even if you're using SCCM, it is an undertaking. For transient clients that you don't necessarily support a hundred percent of the time, it would be nice to be able to connect to them and support their issues without having to install something on their machines. In my previous company, we were looking at this solution as being a collaborative tool for the enterprise in terms of video conferencing, calling, and scheduling. They were working on bringing a bunch of products together to make their suite a little more integrated, but it really wasn't at the point where we wanted it to be in terms of integration. We looked at it, reviewed it, and tested it out a bit. We then decided to go with Microsoft Teams. It has the clunkiness of having separate modules that aren't totally integrated. There are different methods for doing different things, which makes it a little bit more complicated. There should be the same way whether you are doing remote support or just calls."
"We have a consultant that helps us do the virtual aspects of TeamViewer."
"The solution could improve by increasing or removing the time limitation on the use of a session."
"Sometimes it lags."
"If they could figure out a little better solution for the iOS stuff other than just a screen share, even though it's an Apple thing, and Apple doesn't like to give up control of their devices. If they ever got to that point, and I could manipulate an iPad or iPhone, that would be awesome. Since we have a bunch of iPad users who are struggling with doing different things, it would be nice to be able to just jump on and actually show them, "Here, do this, this, and this." Similar to what we do with the laptops, e.g. for training."
"I am not sure about all the features of TeamViewer, but if they have no voice communication or file transfer features they should add them."
"TeamViewer could improve by having a cloud version. Having the solution on the system could cause some cyber security concerns with data."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price for Intune is fair."
"We don't get Intune as a separate module. Most of the time, we use it within an enterprise agreement like E3 or E5. Those licenses are at a good price, but what is annoying is that every single year they go higher."
"Microsoft Intune is a cost effective choice. It is less expensive than other products on the market."
"Our Office 365 Business Premium license, including Office 365 and Intune Management, offers excellent value."
"With our standard E5 agreement with Microsoft, there have been no pricing concerns. Introductory professional services, like a fast-track service, were included with our E5 membership, and there have been no additional costs."
"No one can compete with Microsoft when it comes to price, and the features it is offering."
"Microsoft Intune is expensive."
"The price of Intune is included with the license for Office 365, so we don't have to pay anything extra for it."
"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."
"The product's pricing depends on the number of PCs or devices."
"NinjaRMM uses a subscription model."
"The pricing is reasonable and cheaper than ConnectWise."
"NinjaOne is a little expensive but is still cheaper than competitors like Acronis or Veeam."
"We got a pretty good deal. It was fairly affordable."
"We currently pay $1.20 per device on a monthly basis."
"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 cost is in the thousands of dollars per year."
"We are using the free version of TeamViewer."
"We are not using the solution for commercial use therefore it is free to use."
"The price of the license could be less expensive."
"I am using the free version of TeamViewer. There is a subscription fee to use the premium features."
"TeamViewer is very pricey. You have to sign up for a yearly subscription."
"The solution's pricing is reasonable."
"We have an annual subscription that is just under $1,900 with no additional costs. We get these promotions about upgrades and stuff like that, but we haven't had a need to add more seats. Users can also use TeamViewer for home use with a non-commercial free license."
