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…

Implement service management changes while addressing UI improvements
Topdesk's user interface makes it easy to handle requests and escalate them to other groups or reassign them when working on a single ticket. Additionally, the service management tool in HR allows for a change in delivering services, replacing email communication with ticket raising. The knowledge library enables the local HR to store and share relevant information and frequently asked cases, enhancing collaboration. The ticket system also facilitates escalating cases to other involved departments. IT, HR, and some other teams primarily use this system.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The software's automation tools have solved critical deployment problems for small businesses."
"The most relevant feature is the monitoring, which provides built-in tools for sending commands."
"NinjaOne is a great product. It is working and it is always developing."
"The customer support at NinjaOne is excellent, rated ten out of ten."
"The most valuable feature we have found currently is probably patch management."
"The most important aspect of this tool is the security it provides our company."
"The most valuable features of NinjaOne include remote desktop management, support and assistive tools, and screen sharing."
"A significant feature of NinjaOne is its remote access capability, which is essential for my clients’ home office usage."
"Change management is the most critical feature."
"The most valuable feature of TOPdesk is the reports."
"This solution has provided me with a well-defined process and interaction, compared to my previous tool, GLPI."
"TOPdesk is overall very stable."
"It is an easy-to-use solution."
"Its ITSM approach is quite useful."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is the ticketing feature."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the incident management module."
 

Cons

"NinjaOne's pricing and user interface needs improvement."
"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."
"The ticketing system in NinjaOne is not the best."
"The inclusion of XENServer and Proxmox as virtual platforms in NinjaOne is currently missing."
"Improvements could be made to reduce NinjaOne's functionalities to focus more on inventory or remote help tools."
"NinjaOne's reporting module is cumbersome."
"NinjaOne's dashboard could be easier to use."
"The reporting is lackluster. NinjaOne is great for maintaining systems, but it's hard to use it to understand the state that systems are in without going in and mining the information myself. I rate the reporting two out of 10."
"The solution should be made more user-friendly."
"An operator is also a user but requires creating two different records."
"It is time-consuming to add new users."
"The solution's change management could be better."
"If I open a ticket on the infrastructure team, I can't move it to the financial team for them to manage the ticket."
"From a UI perspective, there is room for improvement. It sometimes takes many steps to do something simple, like creating or moving a knowledge item."
"All companies have processes that need to be adjusted. When you have a change, you need to name it, and many companies have a set of changes you can use. It would be helpful if there were more space in TOPdesk to name the change or use metadata to record the kinds of changes."
"Change management implementation, facility management, and making reservations on assets can be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"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."
"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."
"We currently pay $1.20 per device on a monthly basis."
"The cost of the solution on a yearly basis is $20,000. Technical support is not extra. It's included in the yearly cost. Updates are also included. The solution is good at keeping its product up to date."
"Compared to other products in this segment, I think that they are priced well and not too expensive."
"The solution is inexpensive compared to competitors."
"TOPdesk's pricing is cheaper than Jira's."
"The solution's pricing is reasonable and not expensive."
"There are three fee options to choose from for a company and these options compared to market prices are very high. For example, if I use one of the first options for 10 assets, then it costs 20,000 Euros. If you went to competitors, then you pay less."
