Information Technology Specialist at Allegheny Coupling
Has good stability and an easy initial setup process
We use the solution for remote access control and endpoint protection features The solution has the best remote access control and protection features. They should provide intermediate device limit options. It would be helpful for users who require more remote control capabilities than the lower…
Not Joseph Pearson - PeerSpot reviewer
Assistant Vice President, Tech Solutions at LPL Financials
Has simplified remote software delivery and script management but needs improved reporting flexibility and better Mac support
NinjaOne's best features include ease of use regarding enablement and deployment, a broad selection and ability of software enablement, and API deliveries. Using CrowdStrike, we are able to tie in NinjaOne's API to have these automatically deliver to endpoints upon addition of those devices to a group with that policy deployed to it. NinjaOne has positively impacted our organization by making delivery easier for our end users and improving the ability to create scripts, manage scripts, and check status of devices and their compliance. This easier delivery with NinjaOne gives us oversight on devices without having to be on the call or remoted in directly to a device.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It allows you to transfer along with many other functions."
"It’s enabled me to remotely do updates to servers and workstations in off-hours – without needing to travel into the office. Makes my life much easier."
"I like the encryption and security of LogMeIn. I think the end-to-end security on it, in and of itself, is really good. I use the two-point login system and it's great."
"No issues with stability. It has worked on every platform I’ve tried it on, and not interfered with anything."
"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."
"The initial setup was very easy."
"​The initial setup was pretty straightforward."
"LogMeIn Central allows numerous active clients, say... 50, to use licenses for remotely accessing a computer from home, taking advantage of all the solution's built-in security features."
"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."
"NinjaOne is a great product. It is working and it is always developing."
"The policies are probably the most valuable features. They're similar in function to Microsoft group policies where we can have it monitor certain things or push out software on a schedule. I would rate the policies eight out of 10. They're robust, I could monitor most of the things that Windows Performance Monitoring keeps tabs on."
"The solution's most valuable feature is related to its remote access...I know that NinjaOne's technical support is good."
"NinjaOne has positively impacted our organization by making delivery easier for our end users and improving the ability to create scripts, manage scripts, and check status of devices and their compliance."
"The customer support at NinjaOne is excellent, rated ten out of ten."
"NinjaOne has a feature where we can create custom scripts that we can run on devices remotely."
"The most valuable feature we have found currently is probably patch management."
 

Cons

"I do not like the antivirus."
"It is easy to get locked out, which is something that needs to be improved."
"LogMeIn Rescue could be made a lot easier where you could just tell the person where to go and log in, and they could just log in. Or even make it simpler where you could just send a file to a person and they would click on it; just something easier. The way they have it right now, it's not easy."
"Sometimes it just fails to load."
"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."
"​File transfer on the free version needs improvement. Allow file transfer with drag and drop to and from Remote Desktop. ​"
"Compared to other products, I feel that their biggest weakness has been customer service. They are very nice, but things take forever to resolve. It has been a major issue there. Otherwise, we're happy. We haven't moved away from them because we haven't found anybody with comparable pricing for our business model."
"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."
"Improvements could be made to reduce NinjaOne's functionalities to focus more on inventory or remote help tools."
"Maximizing the screen during an SSH connection is not possible, which hampers usability on Linux servers."
"There was a lot of delay with NinjaOne's ticketing system. For example, when a user creates a ticket and raises an issue, it would take 30 to 40 minutes to appear on the IT side. So the time delay issue is the main point."
"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."
"I would like to see more scripts for PowerShell commands."
"I want NinjaOne to improve the reports."
"Lacks sufficient integrations with other PSAs."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Coming from where it was free, it's getting to be expensive."
"The solution's price is reasonable."
"We are an educational institution, so anything to make it cheaper would be better because we don’t grow money on trees."
"It's getting more expensive and we are starting to evaluate other products. It's starting to become unaffordable."
"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 is a little pricey. I have more than five seats, so I pay a $1000/year."
"Pricing is a little on the expensive side, compared to what TeamViewer has offered."
"We went with it for pricing reasons, that it was the biggest bang for our buck, by combining the ability to have a central security console, as well as a central point for user administration."
"The pricing is reasonable and cheaper than ConnectWise."
"I rate the solution’s pricing a five out of ten, where one is the lowest and ten is the most expensive."
"Its pricing is great."
"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."
"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."
"The product's pricing depends on the number of PCs or devices."
