"The single dashboard is a valuable feature."

"This is a very good solution and it is simple to use, for any company."
"The most valuable feature is the monitoring of processes."
"It's a monitoring agent. It's designed to do one thing. Its most valuable feature is its monitoring."
"The solution has a lot of plugins and scripts integrated with it."
"It is an open-source platform with valuable features for performance and stability."
"The dashboard allows you to see what's going on in the overall system."
"The most valuable feature is its support for different types of devices, where it can use all of the equipment that you need."
"It just works as advertised and serves the purpose for which we got it."
"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 valuable feature we have found currently is probably patch management."
"NinjaOne helps us view the status of software patching, whether the PC is locked or unlocked."
"NinjaOne's best feature is its monitoring."
"It helps us to be able to have visibility into the overall performance of the servers, laptops, and desktops that we are managing currently."
"Good at managing updates and for remote support."
"We can use it for remote monitoring, and it also works great as a troubleshooting tool. We are able to open up a command line or a PowerShell session remotely without having to disrupt the user. They have a limited network device monitoring capability, but for workstation servers, we have the event logs. We can do performance monitoring, system changes, software deployment, and patch management. We can also push scripts. It has a very simple web interface. There are no additional things to do there. Security is also pretty good. It does the same things that the other competitor's tools do. One of the advantages of Ninja is that they have a more capable mobile app, which allows you to see the alerts immediately. I get alerted to major critical issues."
"The technical support needs improvement."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"Technical support is an area that needs improvement. It is not available 24/7."
"There's room for improvement in the visibility, and in the ability to extract information. Stuff like this should be more simple."
"Nagios XI can improve its GUI for users with a new look."
"The technical support is variable - sometimes I get answers, but most of my tickets go unanswered."
"The installation and monitoring need improvement."
"I would like to see support for notification via SMS."
"The Configuration Wizard needs improvement, because not all vendors are present."
"The scalability of Nagios XI is scalable. However, it is not easy to do."
"NinjaOne's pricing and user interface needs improvement."
"The ticketing system in NinjaOne is not the best."
"The NinjaOne distribution server is highly dependent on an active directory."
"The remote connectivity could be better. It works most of the time, but sometimes, there are issues."
"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 could improve by optimizing the internet connection being used."
"I want NinjaOne to improve the reports."
"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."
