Enhances remote access and integration with third-party tools
I use NinjaOne for managing smaller clients, specifically their devices and software, for small to medium businesses. I provide remote management services through NinjaOne. It allows clients to use NinjaOne for remote access to their computers for home office purposes. This feature is highly…

Allows us to create flexible schedules for on-call rotations
For alerts, we could choose to get a text message, app notification, or a phone call. The phone calls were very unusable, because it just read a bunch of numbers, like an ID of the alert. If there was a way to customize the phone call message, that would be great. Later, we would try to read the message, but it wasn't great at reading that. They had some sort of internal chat functionality where if we got an alert, we could write to somebody else and ask them for help, but that was super cumbersome. There could be improvements with communicating an incident or alert. Imagine you call the help desk and you say that your computer is broken and then they say, "Actually, the internet is broken, so let us forward your alerts to the network people." And the network people say, "Actually, the electricity is the problem, so let us forward it to the electricity people." Basically, you could send the alert between the support teams inside the company.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The best feature of NinjaOne is the SLA system. Every IT person can check their performance, how long it takes to resolve an issue, and how many SLAs are breached."
"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 most important aspect of this tool is the security it provides our company."
"It just works as advertised and serves the purpose for which we got it."
"NinjaOne's best feature is its monitoring."
"NinjaOne helps us view the status of software patching, whether the PC is locked or unlocked."
"NinjaOne has a feature where we can create custom scripts that we can run on devices remotely."
"The installation is easy, it only took two minutes."
"VictorOps has been good enough for us and it's effective for our needs in case of an on-call escalation process."
"The alert calling feature is the best because notifications are delivered via phone messages."
"Transmogrifier and automatic solution report gives me a report with the solution and the way to solve issues when an error occurred."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is helpdesk escalation."
"The flexible schedule is the most valuable feature. It was very easy to set out a rotation."
 

Cons

"The remote connectivity could be better. It works most of the time, but sometimes, there are issues."
"There was a lot of delay with NinjaOne's ticketing system. For example, when a user creates a ticket and raises an issue, it would take 30 to 40 minutes to appear on the IT side. So the time delay issue is the main point."
"The network monitoring needs to be improved."
"NinjaOne's pricing and user interface needs improvement."
"NinjaOne's reporting module is cumbersome."
"The ticketing system in NinjaOne is not the best."
"I would like to see more scripts for PowerShell commands."
"The NinjaOne distribution server is highly dependent on an active directory."
"The third-party configuration tool could be easier to use."
"The solution can be improved by including a wider list of permissions."
"There could be improvements with communicating an incident or alert."
"At that stage, all our needs are fulfilled, but at the beginning, we had some feature requests and they were deployed during their roadmap."
"Should have more YouTube webinars."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We got a pretty good deal. It was fairly affordable."
"Its pricing is great."
"NinjaOne is a little expensive but is still cheaper than competitors like Acronis or Veeam."
"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."
"The product's pricing depends on the number of PCs or devices."
"The pricing is reasonable and cheaper than ConnectWise."
"I rate the solution’s pricing a five out of ten, where one is the lowest and ten is the most expensive."
"The price of the solution could be less expensive."
