Enhanced endpoint security with effective patch management and frequent scans
The most valuable feature was the patch management, which was very effective for endpoint-centric solutions requiring remediation of vulnerabilities. ManageEngine Vulnerability Manager Plus was the perfect fit for managing these requirements. We improved the number of scans and patches performed from four times per year per computer to four times per month.

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.

"The most valuable feature was the patch management, which was very effective for endpoint-centric solutions requiring remediation of vulnerabilities."
"NinjaOne helps us view the status of software patching, whether the PC is locked or unlocked."
"NinjaOne saves me time and improves my troubleshooting process by providing information automatically so I don't have to search for it."
"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're looking for a simple and cost-effective remote management tool, NinjaRMM is a good choice."
"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."
"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."
"The most important aspect of this tool is the security it provides our company."
"NinjaOne helped us address our user complaints regarding the system as well as providing us the ability to push software updates directly from NinjaOne to the user's device."
 

Cons

"The integration with third-party solutions such as ticketing solutions or CMDB solutions can be improved."
"The user interface is the only drawback of the product."
"One area that needs improvement is the contract management. My legal team required some partner requirements for that, and ManageEngine could not support it."

"One area that needs improvement is the contract management. My legal team required some partner requirements for that, and ManageEngine could not support it."
"The graphical user interface could be improved."
"Lacks sufficient integrations with other PSAs."
"The remote connectivity could be better. It works most of the time, but sometimes, there are issues."
"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."
"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."
"The solution could improve by optimizing the internet connection being used."
"Improvements could be made to reduce NinjaOne's functionalities to focus more on inventory or remote help tools."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"NinjaOne is a little expensive but is still cheaper than competitors like Acronis or Veeam."

"We got a pretty good deal. It was fairly affordable."
"The product's pricing depends on the number of PCs or devices."
"I rate the solution’s pricing a five out of ten, where one is the lowest and ten is the most expensive."
"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."
