"Ivanti Neurons allows me to adjust our workflow according to our needs."

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

"NinjaOne's pricing and user interface needs improvement."
"I would like to see more scripts for PowerShell commands."
"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 remote connectivity could be better. It works most of the time, but sometimes, there are issues."
"The NinjaOne distribution server is highly dependent on an active directory."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"The price is on the higher side. The support is included in the standard licensing fees."
"The product is affordable for small businesses."
"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 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."
"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."
"Its pricing is great."
"I rate the solution’s pricing a five out of ten, where one is the lowest and ten is the most expensive."
"The product's pricing depends on the number of PCs or devices."
"NinjaRMM uses a subscription model."
