Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Overall, the platform, in its abilities, is really powerful, especially now with AI as a part of hyper-automation."
"HEAT Service Management is good for asset and service desk management. It is the focal point for this solution."
"The solution's technical support is excellent. I rate the technical support a ten out of ten."
"This is an excellent alternative to ServiceNow for smaller companies."
"Primarily, I believe the focus lies on discovery, workflow configuration, and automation."
"The solution's installation depends on its customization. It is easy."
"The integrations are quite simple and clear."
"It is relatively cost-effective compared to other options like ServiceNow. Additionally, it is highly stable."
"NinjaOne has a feature where we can create custom scripts that we can run on devices remotely."
"Good at managing updates and for remote support."
"It helps us to be able to have visibility into the overall performance of the servers, laptops, and desktops that we are managing currently."
"It just works as advertised and serves the purpose for which we got it."
"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 most relevant feature is the monitoring, which provides built-in tools for sending commands."
"The most valuable feature we have found currently is probably patch management."
"The tool's most valuable feature is third-party application updates."
 

Cons

"Configuration requirements are extensive, even in basic Service Desk processes."
"We'd like more integration with solutions like SolarWinds."
"There's a lack of integration with other products. This needs to be improved."
"There is room for improvement in terms of response time. The support team takes a long time to respond."
"Perhaps one area that could see enhancement is at the hardware level, particularly regarding endpoint control."
"The patching for non-Windows OSes such as Linux is poor."
"Support needs improvement in terms of responsiveness and timeliness."
"The user interface must be made simpler and more effective."
"I would like to see more scripts for PowerShell commands."
"The remote connectivity could be better. It works most of the time, but sometimes, there are issues."
"The solution could improve by optimizing the internet connection being used."
"Lacks sufficient integrations with other PSAs."
"The graphical user interface could be improved."
"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."
"NinjaOne's dashboard could be easier to use."
"NinjaOne's reporting module is cumbersome."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price is on the higher side. The support is included in the standard licensing fees."
"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 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."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"We got a pretty good deal. It was fairly affordable."
