Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"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.""NinjaOne's best feature is its monitoring.""It just works as advertised and serves the purpose for which we got it.""The solution's most valuable feature is related to its remote access...I know that NinjaOne's technical support is good.""Good at managing updates and for remote support.""It helps us to be able to have visibility into the overall performance of the servers, laptops, and desktops that we are managing currently.""NinjaOne helps us view the status of software patching, whether the PC is locked or unlocked.""The most valuable feature we have found currently is probably patch management."

"The most valuable features of Zendesk Support are collaboration, reports, and a self-service portal. The customer and team can see all the information needed from the portal.""It's a very stable tool, very powerful.""Its agility and simplicity are the most valuable features. This tool is very user-friendly.""It has good management, the ability to sign tickets based on content, the multi-channel support, the self service portal, the integration with Salesforce, the setup process, and the product features as we are currently using them.""The initial setup is simple and straightforward.""Zendesk Support has a lot of good APIs.""One of the most valuable features is the ease of use. If you take the standalone product, it is so easy to use, but if you want a tailor-made Zendesk Guide, you can't do it yourself. However, you can use a template that already exists—they have a lot, and they're very cheap, around 300-400 euros—and use it on all your brands. It's a very easy product to use.""The feature to move over my customer experience team tickets for different specialists is very valuable for my team."

Cons
"NinjaOne's dashboard could be easier to use.""NinjaOne's pricing and user interface needs improvement.""NinjaOne's reporting module is cumbersome.""The ticketing system in NinjaOne is not the best.""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.""It can have more integrations with third-party providers, such as Deep Instinct. They do partner with certain antivirus or remote access tool partners, but they can increase their portfolio to have more choices.""I want NinjaOne to improve the reports.""Lacks sufficient integrations with other PSAs."

"Zendesk Guide could be improved by allowing us to put our assets in one location. What happens now for each article, for example, is we have to upload the images for that article to that location, so the image reuse is still not something that they have perfected. If they could allow us to update all the images in one location, and then pull the image from there, it would be easier when working on Multibrand projects. There are no Multibrand updates available—we have to update each brand manually. For my company, I have come up with an API tool which allows me to push the content to multiple brands together, but if you don't have something like that, you have to manually do it.""The price of the solution should be reduced.""There is always a network issue with Zendesk. But we don’t know whether it is managed. The network issue is that when I call, it does not let us.""As per me, there arent much significant issues or areas for improvement with Zendesk, as my usage of it is limited. I appreciate its ability to organize tickets effectively based on tags, allowing me to easily gather and analyze customer feedback and requests.""Sometimes if there was a way to just flag the actual issue out of those email chains - that would be really helpful.""If I write an article, and I have a team of 30 people, and they all have a Zendesk account, when I write an article, I send them an email. "Hey guys, I just wrote this article. It's one of the most popular topics this month on which we are not covered. Please check it and make sure that you include it in your resolutions". The issue is, once I send it to those 30 people, and they open it, the next morning, that article is the most popular article.""You couldn't give administrative access to new hires.""The solution itself wasn't easy to set up."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "We got a pretty good deal. It was fairly affordable."
  • "Its pricing is great."
  • "NinjaRMM uses a subscription model."
  • "We currently pay $1.20 per device on a monthly basis."
  • "It roughly costs $400 a month. It provides a good value because of the number of tools that you get in the solution. I would rate it a four out of five in terms of pricing. There are no additional costs other than the standard licensing fees."
  • "The pricing is reasonable and cheaper than ConnectWise."
  • "NinjaOne is a little expensive but is still cheaper than competitors like Acronis or Veeam."
  • "I rate the solution’s pricing a five out of ten, where one is the lowest and ten is the most expensive."
  • More NinjaOne Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "We pay for the solution on a yearly basis and my understanding is that the cost is about $30,000. That's the cost for 24 to 25 agents."
  • "The price is very competitive."
  • "Zendesk's licensing is not cheap. For Enterprise, we are paying $200 per agent. It's a per-month cost, so it's pretty steep. There are some services you need to pay extra for. For example, with Zendesk Guide, we had to buy the most expensive offering in order to get Multibrand and everything. We also had to pay a lot of money for themes."
  • "There are different plans that are offered. We are using the entry-level plan. The overall price of the solution should be reduced. The price is too high."
  • "You have to pay extra for better support. So it's not only the license that you pay for, but you have to pay extra for the support as well."
