Solutions Architect at a tech services company with 10,001+ employees
Good performance monitoring, stable, and scalable
The main challenge for this solution is its lack of availability for training and in-depth troubleshooting steps. I have worked as an operations engineer, implementation engineer, and architect in India. However, the solution is not readily available to every customer. For example, if a company purchases a license and implements the solution, the BAU operation team may be unfamiliar with the product. The solution provides some free training and videos on its website, but it could improve its training and support for customers who purchase a license. Additionally, I have found it difficult to get support for production-related issues. The solution could improve its response time for these issues.

Nexthink offers many features, with the best being Flow, which encompasses almost everything. We have Nexthink Workspace and Spark, allowing integration with Teams so users can find solutions without going to the service desk, rectifying issues in chat. Nexthink Infinity has brought a lot of benefits to us. There has been a very good change from integration. Integrating ServiceNow with Nexthink automates problem ticket and incident generation, enabling the team to proactively know the kinds of problem statements we are receiving. For the integration with Teams, we have not completed it yet, but we are in the planning phase, and once done, we will observe the results. Nexthink has the capability of integrating with most third-party applications, which is a great feature. With the remediation actions we have in Nexthink, it has provided great self-heal capabilities along with proactiveness. By looking at the dashboards and identifying problem statements, we can share this information with the end-user computing teams to fix issues. Nexthink has significantly helped us enhance our DEX score from 74 to 80. When I talk about features that led to the improvement of our score from 74 to 80, there were earlier issues with device performance and reliability not being addressed. Noting these, we identified devices lacking free disk space and low RAM capacity contributing to high memory usage or excessive CPU usage. Disabling unnecessary startup applications brought us to a new DEX score of almost 80.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Stratusphere is a highly scalable solution appropriate for small businesses and large organizations."
"I like Stratusphere's login metrics. It lets you drill down to exactly what you want to see."
"There are a lot of customization options, such as creating your own tables and more. You have the option to make whatever you like and see whatever you want."
"Performance monitoring is a valuable feature."
"Nexthink is valuable because it's enabled us to reduce the time it takes to resolve any issues."
"All the features of Nexthink are really useful when it comes to providing visibility into the endpoints and the services that we are monitoring, but the most interesting and useful features are the campaign and remote actions."
"With this solution we are able to link issues to automatic actions that will solve the problem."
"Number of service incidents dropped by more than 20%."
"This is a proactive management tool and we make use of the metrics, dashboard creation and complete remote actions on end user machines."
"The ability to be more proactive with issue resolution has reduced our maintenance costs and increased the life expectancy of our devices."
"Nexthink's best features are Engage and Act, which we use in combination for self-healing use cases."
"The best thing is the remote actions that we can play on all the devices."
 

Cons

"The main challenge for this solution is its lack of availability for training and in-depth troubleshooting steps."
"The dashboard is pretty lackluster compared to its competitors."
"The dashboard is pretty lackluster compared to its competitors. They need to look at the competition and adopt some of those features. Liquidware could make the dashboarding more user-friendly and integrate scripting into the product."
"The time taken by the solution for the data to load should be improved. It was pretty high in some instances. The latency for some stuff to load up was pretty high."
"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."
"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."
"The UI is hierarchical, which makes navigation complex and isn't user-friendly for those unfamiliar with it."
"I think Nexthink can be improved in some areas. There are little bugs that one would want to address, but I understand it is not always possible."
"Nexthink can be improved by providing stronger proof and investigation data when investigating crashes, which would help identify the exact root cause and supply evidence."
"They can improve the Nexthink action module."
"It would be good to have a more controlled way to access their cloud environment."
"Customer support is one thing which needs to be improved; support team members are slow to respond, and they take a lot of time to get back to us, even if it is an urgent case."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price varies depending on our model type and the number of users or devices."
"The license is based on the number of users. I don't know the current prices, but it's around four euros per user monthly. My customers consider it expensive."
"I would rate the tool's pricing a nine out of ten. The tool's pricing model is pay-as-you-use."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"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."
