Enhances remote access and integration with third-party tools

User-friendly and simpler than its competitors
Versa Director's best feature is the ease of configuration and customer and vendor management. Its UI is also excellent compared to Fortinet and Cisco Versa Director's on-prem SD-WAN hardware and SSL VPN software are not integrated, so you have to buy a separate subscription for the SSL VPN. In…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"A significant feature of NinjaOne is its remote access capability, which is essential for my clients’ home office usage."
"The most valuable features of NinjaOne include remote desktop management, support and assistive tools, and screen sharing."
"The most valuable feature we have found currently is probably patch management."
"The customer support at NinjaOne is excellent, rated ten out of ten."
"The solution's most valuable feature is related to its remote access...I know that NinjaOne's technical support is good."
"NinjaOne helps us view the status of software patching, whether the PC is locked or unlocked."
"The installation is easy, it only took two minutes."
"NinjaOne has a feature where we can create custom scripts that we can run on devices remotely."
"Versa Director is the fastest engineering tool and is ideal for use without product management."
"The most valuable feature of Versa Director is analytics."

Cons

"The NinjaOne distribution server is highly dependent on an active directory."
"Improvements could be made to reduce NinjaOne's functionalities to focus more on inventory or remote help tools."
"I want NinjaOne to improve the reports."
"Lacks sufficient integrations with other PSAs."
"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 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 inclusion of XENServer and Proxmox as virtual platforms in NinjaOne is currently missing."
"The remote connectivity could be better. It works most of the time, but sometimes, there are issues."
"Versa Director's deployment process is not the best."
"Versa could be more AI-oriented."
"It requires some simplification."
"What needs improvement in Versa Director is maturity because, from an operating point of view, it's not mature enough. You'll still need to do a lot of research on Versa Director, so if it could mature faster, that would be very good."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Its pricing is great."
"We got a pretty good deal. It was fairly affordable."
"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."
"NinjaRMM uses a subscription model."
"We currently pay $1.20 per device on a monthly basis."
"NinjaOne is a little expensive but is still cheaper than competitors like Acronis or Veeam."
"Having to buy separate licenses for the on-prem SD-WAN hardware and SSL VPN software makes Versa Director very costly compared to other solutions like Fortinet and Cisco."
