Manager, Platform Engineering at ECi Software Solutions
Automated incident response has improved ownership clarity and data-driven decision making
I believe one of the biggest impacts FireHydrant had on my organization was identifying ownership across services and products and then being able to track execution.Tracking execution and identifying ownership improved things for my teams because nobody could hide behind a "I didn't know" or "it wasn't a problem" kind of response. As long as deep observabilities were in place, so logs, metrics, and traces, identifying where the issues were and then routing to those teams was critical. This also allowed me to take a data-driven approach in identifying where further R&D needed to happen across the product suite based off of what our customers were actually doing, bypassing biases from sales teams, development teams, and others.

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

"FireHydrant had a great impact on my organization, given we were using it consistently across all the incidents that we had."
"I believe one of the biggest impacts FireHydrant had on my organization was identifying ownership across services and products and then being able to track execution."
"The software's automation tools have solved critical deployment problems for small businesses."
"NinjaOne has a feature where we can create custom scripts that we can run on devices remotely."
"If you're looking for a simple and cost-effective remote management tool, NinjaRMM is a good choice."
"The tool's most valuable feature is third-party application updates."
"The standout feature of NinjaOne is that we do not have to open any ports for access, which is great for security."
"It helps us to be able to have visibility into the overall performance of the servers, laptops, and desktops that we are managing currently."
"NinjaOne allows even small teams of three users to support over 400 desktops and keep them up to date and working at peak performance."
"If you are new to the MSP space and need an easy-to-set-up that can grow with your business and licensing, NinjaOne is an excellent option."
 

Cons

"FireHydrant's AI capabilities need to be treated with scrutiny regarding accuracy and reliability of output, and for the provider to be able to instill absolute trust in the user base is very difficult."
"Back then, I think there were some missing features in their Terraform provider, so that is the only thing that comes into my mind regarding needed improvements."
"The solution could improve by optimizing the internet connection being used."
"The ticketing system in NinjaOne is not the best."
"The inclusion of XENServer and Proxmox as virtual platforms in NinjaOne is currently missing."
"It can have more integrations with third-party providers, such as Deep Instinct. They do partner with certain antivirus or remote access tool partners, but they can increase their portfolio to have more choices."
"I wish that they integrated it with more antivirus solutions. Currently, they only push Defender, but it doesn't really have integration with SentinelOne. It also didn't integrate with Trend Micro, which we were using previously. I would also like to have more control from the mobile app. As of now, I am able to see some performance values, but I can't see, for example, disk activity or disk performance values. If they can improve their app a little bit, it would help greatly. They can also improve the tech interface. If I assign certain techs to a bunch of specific machines, they only get those alerts that they're assigned to."
"Customer support is active and proactive, but not reachable 24/7, which is an issue."
"NinjaOne's pricing and user interface needs improvement."
"I want NinjaOne to improve the reports."
