N-able N-sight Remote Monitoring & Management Reviews

What could be improved in N-able N-sight Remote Monitoring & Management is the reporting, in particular, the reporting interface and the report generation method. Currently, I don't find it easy to run reports on the solution. Every time, if I want a report on a Windows vulnerability because a client requested that report, I find the process difficult. For example, out of one hundred PCs, I need to get a report on how many PCs have not been updated to a specific patch level. I need to give that report to the CTO or CEO of a particular client organization, and as running the report on N-able N-sight Remote Monitoring & Management isn't easy, sometimes, that makes me doubt the validity of the generated report as well. It depends on each case because I do find some reports to be genuine and 100% correct, but most of the time, I have to ask for help from other engineers, and even collaborating with another engineer to run reports isn't that easy, so reporting needs improvement in N-able N-sight Remote Monitoring & Management. Another room for improvement in the solution is patch management. The user-friendliness of the Take Control feature in N-able N-sight Remote Monitoring & Management also needs improvement, particularly when it's used on multiple computers or displays. Switching between displays isn't as user-friendly on the technician side, so that could be improved by letting you see all displays or monitors all at once, or on a single display, rather than needing to switch from one display to another. As Take Control is on a Windows agent, or running on a client-end device, that feature of N-able N-sight Remote Monitoring & Management could be improved as well. An additional feature I'd like to see in the next release of the solution is a mobile application, though I'm not familiar if that's already available. As an IT MSP, sometimes I have on-call jobs, and I don't always want to look at the mailbox to see if there's any alert triggered from the devices. If N-able N-sight Remote Monitoring & Management has a mobile application that would allow my team to get push notifications whenever there's downtime or issues, then that would make the solution more reliable. I'd like to get an alert that would pop up from my mobile device, so it would be pretty easy to keep an eye on alerts, and I won't have to check my inbox every time.

The reporting could be more customizable. RMM pulls a vast amount of data, but you need to filter through it to get a decent executive report each month. I'm pulling reports all day through the XML file and such to get the information our executive needs. They don't want a 34-megabyte Excel spreadsheet, but the overview only provides limited information, like a basic breakdown. For example, if I'm looking at the overview, it would be nice to see the number of systems running Windows and the version or how the number of devices reporting correctly on a patch management level. I'd like to see a simpler interface and a more versatile reporting structure. We are looking at moving up to N-central now. I'm working with N-able to set up a demo because I see N-central's reporting has a better structure.

I want the service to be improved because the customer support is not that good. I've been talking to them a lot lately. Sometimes there are agents who can solve the solution, and other times there are agents who cannot. I called them this morning, saying, "I have this setting, but I cannot press it and it's whitelisted, so I cannot click it, but I can click it on another computer." Then it will take an hour to phone them, and after that, they say, "I will get back to you" on chat. I could call them again tomorrow, and there will be another agent who will then solve it, and it won't take him or her five minutes to solve it. They need to improve their support. Maybe a lot of their teams are not very good with their products. They also need to improve their ticketing system. We've been using the ticking system. Additionally, one of our clients sent an email to us, saying they need to improve the graphical user interface. Likewise, their site and cloud backup are very slow-responding.
