Cost effective but when we originally purchased LANGuardian, some features needed further development.
The ability to detect and decipher torrent traffic for the purpose of identifying what some refer to as "copyright violators" Our CIO asked us to track down the source of undesired uploads, which trigger e-mails received by outside bodies regarding what they refer to as "copyright violations",…

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

"Our CIO asked us to track down the source of undesired uploads, which trigger e-mails received by outside bodies regarding what they refer to as "copyright violations", and Languardian was the most efficient and effective tool for the job."
"If you are looking for a solid solution that can be easily deployed then I'd recommend considering Netfort solutions."
"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."
"A significant feature of NinjaOne is its remote access capability, which is essential for my clients’ home office usage."
"The customer support at NinjaOne is excellent, rated ten out of ten."
"NinjaOne is a great product. It is working and it is always developing."
"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."
"If you're looking for a simple and cost-effective remote management tool, NinjaRMM is a good choice."
"The most relevant feature is the monitoring, which provides built-in tools for sending commands."
 

Cons

"Sure, at the time we bought the product, the GUI and graphs/reports/pie charts etc ... were not fully developed."
"It takes a long time to load results. I think it would be great if they fix the slowness issue in the next release."
"Improvements could be made to reduce NinjaOne's functionalities to focus more on inventory or remote help tools."
"NinjaOne's pricing and user interface needs improvement."
"The graphical user interface could be improved."
"Lacks sufficient integrations with other PSAs."
"The ticketing system in NinjaOne is not the best."
"NinjaOne can be improved by making mobile usage on the system cheaper because it becomes an expensive commodity."
"The inclusion of XENServer and Proxmox as virtual platforms in NinjaOne is currently missing."
"The network monitoring needs to be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The pricing is reasonable and cheaper than ConnectWise."
"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."
"The product's pricing depends on the number of PCs or devices."
"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."
"NinjaOne is a little expensive but is still cheaper than competitors like Acronis or Veeam."
"Its pricing is great."
