"The installation is easy, it only took two minutes."

Cons

"They could provide product integration with popular platforms."
"The patching for non-Windows OSes such as Linux is poor."
"There is room for improvement in terms of response time. The support team takes a long time to respond."
"Ivanti Neurons for ITSM is not a user-friendly tool when compared to ServiceNow."
"There could be an improvement in the ability to easily integrate other systems without extensive development."
"There's a lack of integration with other products. This needs to be improved."
"Perhaps one area that could see enhancement is at the hardware level, particularly regarding endpoint control."
"Ivanti Neurons for ITSM's support model is not very strong. You should buy professional services. Its self-service portal and survey are extremely lacking. You cannot customize it, and it doesn't look very good. The solution does not have a strong community."
"The inclusion of XENServer and Proxmox as virtual platforms in NinjaOne is currently missing."
"I would like to see more scripts for PowerShell commands."
"The inclusion of XENServer and Proxmox as virtual platforms in NinjaOne is currently missing."
"The graphical user interface could be improved."
"NinjaOne's reporting module is cumbersome."
"The solution could improve by optimizing the internet connection being used."
"NinjaOne's dashboard could be easier to use."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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 price is on the higher side. The support is included in the standard licensing fees."
"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."
"NinjaOne is a little expensive but is still cheaper than competitors like Acronis or Veeam."
"I rate the solution’s pricing a five out of ten, where one is the lowest and ten is the most expensive."
"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."
"NinjaRMM uses a subscription model."
"The product's pricing depends on the number of PCs or devices."
"We got a pretty good deal. It was fairly affordable."
"Its pricing is great."
"We currently pay $1.20 per device on a monthly basis."
