Useful automation capabilities, scales well, and simple implementation
We are currently exploring automation options for various areas, and Avantra should consider implementing automation for change request management, an area they have not yet ventured into. While Avantra is currently excelling in monitoring and system refreshes, there is scope for improvement in automating change request management. In addition to primarily focusing on SAP, Avantra currently performs kernel patches which are core SAP patches. However, exploring more into OS patching could be another potential area for Avantra to expand its automation capabilities. Looking ahead to future releases, I would like to see more advanced automation features. As a long-term goal, I am considering the possibility of automating SAP system upgrades. While this would not be an easy feat, advancements in technology may make it feasible in the future. Overall, a key feature I hope to see in future releases is increased automation capabilities.

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

"You can customize alerts based on need."
"It's very easy to manage and use."
"Deployment was amazingly short and simple; I do not think I have seen any SAP-related product installs ready to work so fast, and out-of-box it included most of the functions and settings that we needed."
"The most valuable feature of Avantra is automation. The reduction of manual work and having them automated is one of the top reasons why I would use it."
"It prevented two major failures in our SAP production systems."
"I definitely recommend this solution, it provides good value for money."
"It's just very user-friendly, and it's very easy to monitor the servers using Avantra."
"NinjaOne's best feature is its monitoring."
"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."
"NinjaOne is a great product. It is working and it is always developing."
"NinjaOne allows even small teams of three users to support over 400 desktops and keep them up to date and working at peak performance."
"NinjaOne has a feature where we can create custom scripts that we can run on devices remotely."
"The tool's most valuable feature is third-party application updates."
"If you're looking for a simple and cost-effective remote management tool, NinjaRMM is a good choice."
"The most valuable feature we have found currently is probably patch management."
 

Cons

"The dashboard needs to improve."
"The machine-learning is lacking and should be improved."
"I think they can improve their UI, while very intuitive, I would like to see graphic updates."
"The dashboard needs to improve; it's not so clear right now and we need it to be more usable so we can have all of our reports in one easy-to-access place."
"We are currently exploring automation options for various areas, and Avantra should consider implementing automation for change request management, an area they have not yet ventured into. While Avantra is currently excelling in monitoring and system refreshes, there is scope for improvement in automating change request management. In addition to primarily focusing on SAP, Avantra currently performs kernel patches which are core SAP patches. However, exploring more into OS patching could be another potential area for Avantra to expand its automation capabilities."
"A downside of Avantra is that it comes with predefined values."
"The ticketing system in NinjaOne is not the best."
"NinjaOne's reporting module is cumbersome."
"The remote connectivity could be better. It works most of the time, but sometimes, there are issues."
"NinjaOne's dashboard could be easier to use."
"The graphical user interface could be improved."
"The inclusion of XENServer and Proxmox as virtual platforms in NinjaOne is currently missing."
"One challenge I face with NinjaOne is that when remoting in, sometimes the end user has a resolution with very tiny text, making it necessary to zoom in to see what the other computer is displaying."
"NinjaOne's pricing and user interface needs improvement."
