Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Unattended remote assistance."
"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."
"This solution has allowed granular permission access to machines, very consistent and solid most of the time."
"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."
"It allows you to transfer along with many other functions."
"​The initial setup was pretty straightforward."
"The initial setup was very easy."
"The alerts are helpful."
"The most valuable features of NinjaOne include remote desktop management, support and assistive tools, and screen sharing."
"The installation is easy, it only took two minutes."
"Good at managing updates and for remote support."
"It just works as advertised and serves the purpose for which we got it."
"The best feature of NinjaOne is the SLA system. Every IT person can check their performance, how long it takes to resolve an issue, and how many SLAs are breached."
"The most valuable feature we have found currently is probably patch management."
"NinjaOne is a great product. It is working and it is always developing."
"NinjaOne has a feature where we can create custom scripts that we can run on devices remotely."
 

Cons

"The update issues are an absolute pain. It says it is updating things, but the updates do not go through, and you try your hardest to get the updates to go through and they don't. You go to the PC, but there is no update there, then you go back and it says there are updates."
"It's not really a true RMM product but more of just a remote access."
"There are some screens that are just ugly and difficult to manipulate."
"It is easy to get locked out, which is something that needs to be improved."
"Sometimes it just fails to load."
"It needs backwards compatibility for non-Microsoft-supported operating systems, for example, XP and 2003. In situations where I have no options but to run older operating systems, I would like for it to be backwards compatible."
"The initial load is terribly slow and often has delays with the login page loading."
"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."
"I want NinjaOne to improve the reports."
"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."
"NinjaOne's pricing and user interface needs improvement."
"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."
"Improvements could be made to reduce NinjaOne's functionalities to focus more on inventory or remote help tools."
"The network monitoring needs to 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."
"The inclusion of XENServer and Proxmox as virtual platforms in NinjaOne is currently missing."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Having to spend so much money on remote access is what I feel to be a necessary evil."
"Pricing is a little high. They require for LogMeIn Central to go into brackets. If you go over a certain amount of PCs or servers to access, going up to the next bracket is a big jump."
"It's probably worth the value, but the price increases over the last five years are getting harder to justify."
"The price needs improvement. It is ridiculously expensive now, and no features have really changed."
"We've been trying to nail its cost down ourselves, and it is a disaster in that area because you get different numbers all the time. They say this is what it is, but the numbers don't make a lot of sense to me. I know that the numbers change. So, the more you have, the less they are per seat, but I don't really understand where those breakdowns are. Its billing is confusing. It is definitely the worst part. For 7,500 seats, it might be between 2,250 and 2,700 a month. It is somewhere in there."
"It really is an expensive product for me.​"
"Coming from where it was free, it's getting to be expensive."
"The solution's price is reasonable."
"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."
"We currently pay $1.20 per device on a monthly basis."
"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."
"The product's pricing depends on the number of PCs or devices."
"NinjaRMM uses a subscription model."
"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."
