Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"It is helpful to patch and scan vulnerabilities.""The most valuable feature of GFI LanGuard is its email spam feature.""The solution is easy to use and integrates well with other operating systems.""This product is a great solution at a great price as long as it is only going to be used for a local area network.""The most valuable features of GFI LanGuard are the vulnerability assessment, it provides us with substantial insight into what applications are running on the endpoint systems and what vulnerabilities are there in the running applications. The second would be the assets tracking. I'm able to see in the network whether my endpoint server is operating and if all the other IT equipment is running in the environment. Additionally, GFI LanGuard is not heavy on system resources. It gives a competitive advantage over others.""I like that the solution can block users from unnecessarily putting devices on the network.""The most valuable feature is that I am able to patch third-party solutions.""The most useful features of GFI LanGuard are vulnerability assessment and patching solutions."

Cons
"If GFI LanGuard had a cloud version it would be better for people that are working from home.""The documentation on how to use this solution in a Linux environment is not clear, which is something that should be improved because it is complicated.""GFI LanGuard could improve the rollback feature. If we have installed the wrong we have had some issues with the rollback function. Additionally, more input from GFI LanGuard for the custom software push install.""The only drawback with GFI LanGuard is that you cannot directly integrate it from the Outlook email; instead, you have to first log in to the site to make changes.""The version we are using only allows one person to use it at a time and does not allow multi-users.""GFI LanGuard has some technical limitations with machines.""When you want to uninstall software from an endpoint, sometimes it becomes very problematic.""This solution is limited to the local area network only and cannot manage remote devices."

More GFI LanGuard Cons →

"NinjaOne's reporting module is cumbersome.""I want NinjaOne to improve the reports.""I would like to see more scripts for PowerShell commands.""The remote connectivity could be better. It works most of the time, but sometimes, there are issues.""The NinjaOne distribution server is highly dependent on an active directory.""The graphical user interface could be improved.""NinjaOne's pricing and user interface needs improvement.""The solution could improve by optimizing the internet connection being used."
