Everything has worked better since we started using it
Sometimes the syncing is inconsistent. I'm confident that the devices are checking in every eight hours, but sometimes the devices aren't picking up the settings as quickly as I would expect. Some features haven't been updated in a while, and Microsoft doesn't seem interested in developing them. Unless you talk to an engineer, you don't know whether there will be an update. There are communication issues, so you might start working with a feature without knowing if it will be deprecated six months from now. Some reporting areas still need development. For example, I noticed that the reporting for driver updates is still confusing.

Solution elevates team collaboration and manages remote support efficiently
For me as a user in the service desk, there is already a lot of functionality in the product. I don't have any specific ideas for improvement on that side. Some technical aspects could be improved, particularly in product management. For the end user, enhancements do not seem necessary at the moment. They could probably give the technician client a more modern interface, but the crucial factor is stable connectivity in a remote session. I see more potential for improvement on the administration side, like better transparency when a patch is installed. It would be useful for administrators to see the version and patch levels of the product easily. BeyondTrust could also enhance their quality control process before releasing a new build to ensure no new bugs are present. This is a common issue among software manufacturers.

Enhances remote access and integration with third-party tools
I use NinjaOne for managing smaller clients, specifically their devices and software, for small to medium businesses. I provide remote management services through NinjaOne. It allows clients to use NinjaOne for remote access to their computers for home office purposes. This feature is highly…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It is a very helpful solution."
"It is very easy to use. It has a very easy interface."
"Intune significantly simplifies application deployment, mobile application management, and policy enforcement, such as restricting user access to specific applications, thereby enhancing overall environment security."
"The central administration con dashboard is very easy to use and provides very good oversight on all that needs to be monitored."
"Its security is most valuable. It gives us a way to secure devices, not only those that are steady. We do have a few tablets and other devices, and it is a way for us to secure these devices and manage them. We know they're out there and what's their status. We can manage their life cycle and verify that they're updated properly."
"It allows our clients to have the confidence to centrally manage policies for security. It helps them in securing the organization from a technology aspect."
"It supports end-users who tend to lock their devices quite frequently. Its conditional access policy helps us keep the users logged into their devices."
"Autopilot is the most valuable feature."
"This product has drastically improved the speed and ease at which we provide client support from our Solutions Centre (service desk)."
"The time savings that we experience from being able to get hands on with a device experiencing trouble, and the time to resolve an issue is substantial."
"The file transfer feature allows IT to provide needed drivers and files without interfering with the employee's workflow."
"It has allowed us to quickly address the needs and issues of our end users."
"I would rate the product ten out of ten."
"We are able to be more effectively connected to computers and servers all over the world."
"The integrated chat service with quick elevation to a full control support session has increased our service desk efficiency."
"It is a lightweight, reliable solution that gives IT a direct visual of occurring issues."
"The most valuable feature we have found currently is probably patch management."
"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 has a feature where we can create custom scripts that we can run on devices remotely."
"It just works as advertised and serves the purpose for which we got it."
"NinjaOne helps us view the status of software patching, whether the PC is locked or unlocked."
"The installation is easy, it only took two minutes."
"NinjaOne is a great product. It is working and it is always developing."
"The customer support at NinjaOne is excellent, rated ten out of ten."
 

Cons

"It would be helpful if there was proactive remediation."
"Microsoft Intune fails a lot when it comes to device compliance."
"I wish Microsoft would keep up with their documentation. They make changes so quickly to these platforms that they do not update the documentation properly in a timely manner."
"There should be more focus on mobile device security and integration."
"Intune needs to incorporate more tools to reduce the number of third-party applications we rely on."
"Lacking ability to leverage more iOS device management internally."
"One drawback of Intune is that we cannot find devices based on a user's region or location."
"It should be easier to define policies and comply with those policies."
"It could be more compatible with other applications. We had trouble with compatibility when it came to Entrust. This is because we had issues with Windows machines when we installed Entrust."
"The chat needs to improve. We need to enable set hours for chat support which are separate from the remote support assistance."
"One potential improvement is in the support department. Customers based in India have to wait for support staff in the UK to start their shifts for assistance on non-urgent matters, even for severity one or two issues."
"It lacks voice integration like the other products because they need the compression to support that large amount of concurrent sessions. We've had to sacrifice voice."
"I would like to see more integration with iOS devices along with better connectivity and communication with these devices."
"This product has a lot of features that we do not currently use, so there may be some things that cause bloat and confusion."
"I would have picked an internal team member who was going to stay on the team for more time. Shortly after we went live, we had a change of staff and lost the main implementer."
"Although the learning curve is steep, the product is well-documented.​"
"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 want NinjaOne to improve the reports."
"Improvements could be made to reduce NinjaOne's functionalities to focus more on inventory or remote help tools."
"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 network monitoring needs to be improved."
"The inclusion of XENServer and Proxmox as virtual platforms in NinjaOne is currently missing."
"The remote connectivity could be better. It works most of the time, but sometimes, there are issues."
"The ticketing system in NinjaOne is not the best."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We work with the subscription rather than a server license. I think it's economical this way because we don't have to have a server license for that, and I think that works in our favor."
"We use Defender ATP and E5 licenses."
"As a partner, we always look for how we can generate more revenue from a consulting point of view, but I do not see any complaints from the customer side regarding pricing, so they are satisfied with it."
"It is reasonable. When you have Microsoft 365 E3 or E5 license, it is already licensed in that license. So, you could say it is free."
"Intune is included in the Microsoft 365 licensing package that we have."
"It's reasonable. They're not giving it away, but it's reasonable."
"Any bundle package, such as Security E3, covers multiple things, such as AAP, BitLocker, etc. If you go for them individually, they would be more expensive. Bundling makes the price more attractive and competitive."
"It is not expensive."
"I rate Remote Support eight out of 10 for affordability. It's definitely not the cheapest product, but you get a good return on your investment."
"It is not the most cost effective solution on the market."
"The solution is subscription-based and depends on the number of admin users."
"​The product maintenance and licensing costs are on the higher end, so I would carefully review how many licenses you need. The concurrent license model is helpful in this manner.​"
"For a smaller customer, the cloud solution costs around $2300 per user per year."
"I would like to order more licenses. This would allow us to support more end users concurrently."
"I highly recommend using the tech team properly trained by Bomgar. This will help the tool be more useful."
"It is expensive. Performance-wise, it is pretty good, but we're less happy with the cost. Its licensing is on a yearly basis. It is also on a per-technician basis. A certain number of concurrent technicians can log in and access all the features."
"We currently pay $1.20 per device on a monthly basis."
"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."
"I rate the solution’s pricing a five out of ten, where one is the lowest and ten is the most expensive."
"The pricing is reasonable and cheaper than ConnectWise."
"Its pricing is great."
"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."
