Pros

“The ticketing and monitoring features are useful for keeping issues organized, while patch management helps reduce the amount of manual follow-up needed.”
SB

Stacie B.

Assistant Controller

“It gives developers, product teams, and managers a shared view of progress without relying on constant status meetings. Once the projects are structured properly, it makes priorities and dependencies much easier to follow.”
VF

Vincenza F.

Software Engineer

“With everything such as monitoring, remote control, patching, and ticketing in one product, I don’t need to switch between applications unnecessarily.”
TS

Teerasak S.

Integration Service Operation

Pros

“On a technical level, the platform delivers on its primary promises: the alerting is dependable, and the agent deployment and patch management provide a reliable foundation for basic endpoint maintenance. When the "lights are on," the software does exactly what it needs to do to keep a fleet stable.”
CP

Christian P.

Sys Admin

“Also, the ability to push 3rd party applications has been a big help. And we have just now activated the Microsoft Intune integration through NCentral which will allow us to automatically install the most up to date NCentral Agent on Autopilot deployed devices while they are being set up. And I also love the easy access to the Microsoft Intune Dashboard from NCentral.”
DI

Dennis I.

IT Support Administrator

“Its flexibility and scalability make it ideal for managing both small and large customer environments, and their customer support team is knowledgeable, responsive, and helpful when resolving issues or optimizing platform performance.”
SO

Sean O.

Senior Cyber Security Engineer

Cons

“Customer support can be slow and unresponsive on complex tickets, while the platform suffers from occasional dashboard lag, connection drops, and noisy false alerts.”

Sushant T.

Staff Engineer

“There are times when the number of alerts can be a little overwhelming, especially when several devices have issues at the same time.”
Verified reviewer profile picture

Varshini B.

cyber security specialist

“The biggest issue for us was that the product didn’t fully live up to how it’s marketed.”
BR

Bradley R.

IT Director

Cons

“The way patch approval rule engine needs an overhaul and simplification, as they way it is currently designed is obtuse and requires hours with support to understand what it is actually doing on the backend and what will and won't be approved and why.”
AA

Andrew A.

Security Architect

“The formatting is strange and unprofessional, making it difficult to hand these documents directly to clients without extensive manual editing or external tools to make the data digestible.”
CP

Christian P.

Sys Admin

“Certain workflows—like policy management, reporting customization, or navigating between device views—can feel a bit clunky or outdated compared to more modern RMM platforms.”
