Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Unattended Access, allows me to do support on machines that people are having trouble with, during non-working hours."
"Using the product, we provide a quicker response when supporting customers.​"
"​The initial setup was pretty straightforward."
"​The initial setup was simple."
"I would not want to tell other companies about it because it is so powerful, it does so much, and it makes me look so good."
"I like the options for multiple displays. The unattended access is very useful, but it can also be misused. So, it is something you have to be careful with."
"For me, it's convenience because I cover three different offices, and I need to be able to remotely access any of those three offices from anywhere, anytime. With LogMeIn Central, I can do that."
"I have called for help to their technical support, and they have been extremely helpful."
"The most relevant feature is the monitoring, which provides built-in tools for sending commands."
"The software's automation tools have solved critical deployment problems for small businesses."
"We can use it for remote monitoring, and it also works great as a troubleshooting tool. We are able to open up a command line or a PowerShell session remotely without having to disrupt the user. They have a limited network device monitoring capability, but for workstation servers, we have the event logs. We can do performance monitoring, system changes, software deployment, and patch management. We can also push scripts. It has a very simple web interface. There are no additional things to do there. Security is also pretty good. It does the same things that the other competitor's tools do. One of the advantages of Ninja is that they have a more capable mobile app, which allows you to see the alerts immediately. I get alerted to major critical issues."
"The solution's most valuable feature is related to its remote access...I know that NinjaOne's technical support is good."
"It helps us to be able to have visibility into the overall performance of the servers, laptops, and desktops that we are managing currently."
"Good at managing updates and for remote support."
"The installation is easy, it only took two minutes."
"NinjaOne helps us view the status of software patching, whether the PC is locked or unlocked."
 

Cons

"The initial load is terribly slow and often has delays with the login page loading."
"The file transfer could be better. They could make it a lot easier to deal with. LogMeIn Central is not that intuitive. It's a lot harder to figure out."
"It's not really a true RMM product but more of just a remote access."
"The solution is expensive as hell."
"I have had issues where LogMeIn has not been useful, then we have not been able to work that day. This happens probably two or three times a year."
"They should provide intermediate device limit options for the users."
"It is easy to get locked out, which is something that needs to be improved."
"Sometimes it just fails to load."
"I want NinjaOne to improve the reports."
"The ticketing system in NinjaOne is not the best."
"Lacks sufficient integrations with other PSAs."
"The reporting is lackluster. NinjaOne is great for maintaining systems, but it's hard to use it to understand the state that systems are in without going in and mining the information myself. I rate the reporting two out of 10."
"NinjaOne's reporting module is cumbersome."
"NinjaOne's pricing and user interface needs improvement."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Coming from where it was free, it's getting to be expensive."
"Having to spend so much money on remote access is what I feel to be a necessary evil."
"The only thing I found is that they've gotten very, very expensive over the years. I started out with about about 100 users on it. Two years ago it was about $600 for 100 users. Now, it's that price for 25 users."
"It used to be a lot cheaper but then the price shot up (doubled over the span of two years), but it's hard to switch, and most competing products are similarly priced anyway."
"The price is a little high but it's competitive. The licensing process is fairly easy."
"The price needs improvement. It is ridiculously expensive now, and no features have really changed."
"It is a little pricey. I have more than five seats, so I pay a $1000/year."
"We are an educational institution, so anything to make it cheaper would be better because we don’t grow money on trees."
"Its pricing is great."
"NinjaRMM uses a subscription model."
"I rate the solution’s pricing a five out of ten, where one is the lowest and ten is the most expensive."
"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 is a little expensive but is still cheaper than competitors like Acronis or Veeam."
"The product's pricing depends on the number of PCs or devices."
"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."
