With good website development capabilities, the solution also provides exceptional stability
The initial setup is straightforward. The time taken for deployment for the website depends on the website code files and database. It may take four hours to eight hours for a single site to migrate from another solution. We used to do the migration from the cloud only and not on-premises. For deployment, we used to compress the code files, and using SFTP, we used to transfer the files. We then configure the same with that, and after transferring the code files, we used to have the UAT, staging, and production URL. Once everything is fine, we will switch the DNS for the live website. For the deployment and maintenance, we need support from the client's side and from the management side to make the DNS switch. We also need help from third-party vendors to provide access.

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

"Ivanti Patch for Linux, UNIX, and Mac helps to ensure that everything is up to date."
"The website development section is the most valuable feature of the solution."
"Compared to other software options, this is not exactly a cheap solution, however, the value you get is good, and therefore it's worth the cost."
"The tool is a stable product."
"The solution is easy to implement."
"The best features NinjaOne offers are that I can see every device across the network regardless of location, and it is fantastic at being able to really control everything we have."
"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."
"The most relevant feature is the monitoring, which provides built-in tools for sending commands."
"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 helps us view the status of software patching, whether the PC is locked or unlocked."
"The biggest thing for me is having monitoring, remote access, patch management, and software deployment all in one place, which simplifies managing my client endpoints and saves me a lot of manual effort."
"The most valuable features of NinjaOne include remote desktop management, support and assistive tools, and screen sharing."
"It helps us to be able to have visibility into the overall performance of the servers, laptops, and desktops that we are managing currently."
 

Cons

"The tool needs to improve its visual system."
"The solution can be quite expensive, compared to other options on the market."
"The better way to improve the solution is by working on an area where it lacks, which includes the migration part."
"NinjaOne's pricing and user interface needs improvement."
"The graphical user interface could be improved."
"The solution could improve by optimizing the internet connection being used."
"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."
"The network monitoring needs to be improved."
"Maximizing the screen during an SSH connection is not possible, which hampers usability on Linux servers."
"To improve NinjaOne, there should be better integration between multiple different software including Cisco and Meraki."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is open-source, so we do not need any licensing."
"Its pricing is great."
"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 currently pay $1.20 per device on a monthly basis."
"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."
"I rate the solution’s pricing a five out of ten, where one is the lowest and ten is the most expensive."
"We got a pretty good deal. It was fairly affordable."
