ICT Manager

The only downside is that (at present) there is no way to populate a phones contacts list directly through NinjaOne.  

They're big enough where they have the benefits of a large organizations, but small enough where I feel like I have fast, personalized support.

Senior IT Specialist

Having European support is also super helpful, no waiting for US people to wake up!

IT Service Desk Analyst

I have loved my time using NinjaOne, NinjaOne has provided a remote solution I can use to monitor the health of our wallboards, deploy mandatory software updates to wallboards in different buildings at the push of a button, and allows me to troubleshoot issues with our wallboards remotely.

IT Technician

One of the most common drawbacks is its reporting capabilities. Although the built-in reports cover basic needs, they can feel somewhat limited in customization and depth, especially for organizations that require highly detailed or client-facing reports.

Engineer

It allows me to manage and monitor all my endpoints from a single, clean dashboard without any lag.

IT Systems Administrator

NinjaOne RMM provides a very direct and productive IT management experience, particularly for the teams who like simple tools, quick set, up, and trustworthy automation.

While the limited customization options and complicated policy enforcement can make things a bit confusing, the alerting system and filtering capabilities definitely need to be improved for more effective monitoring. But really, it's not a terrible lineup, it just needs a few adjustments.

The platform provides fast, reliable connections that allow technicians to troubleshoot issues in real time without needing to be physically present.

Owner

Having a single pane of glass to review each morning saves a significant amount of time and allows me to be proactive in letting my end users know where troubles are, rather than having them report - helps show the value of purchasing the services from me.

The user interface is clean, intuitive, and responsive, which significantly reduces the learning curve and allows technicians to become productive quickly.

Tier Two Technician

In order to use custom fields, it needs to have the NinjaOne Documentation app enabled in order to function properly.

The great usability and timely help are very much appreciated aspects and are seen as a means for IT teams to be able to tackle the problems fast and lessen their working hours.

Executive Director

We use it for everything from Fixing issues behind the scenes to Remote Access of Devices.

IT Operations Manager

It offers a native remote support tool so you can do everything from within the NinjaOne platform.

IT Support Engineer

The automation and remote monitoring tools save a significant amount of time, allowing issues to be resolved proactively before they become bigger problems.

Data Scientist

New users might find a initial setup and advanced features slightly confusing without guidance and also while minor bugs occur occasionally they are usually fixed quickly..

IT Director

That I can't integrate out Bit Defender license into their platform it need to be purchased through them.

I wish there were more built-in templates to customize data for my clients.

Consultant

NinjaOne is an excellent choice for IT departments and MSPs seeking a reliable, easy-to-use RMM solution that delivers strong automation and exceptional support.

System Administrator

I am able to control patches, remote control user PCs, and deploy software seamlessly.

Profile management is easy and allows you to categorize systems by location (and apply a policy at a location level).

You can schedule scripts and tasks to run as well.

IT systems support specialist

It’s intuitive, reliable, and has streamlined device management and support, especially with automation and remote access

Support Engineer

The automation is a big time-saver — patching, scripts, and software installs just run smoothly in the background.

It's also great that you can send commands directly to a device in the background.

Solid remote access tool allowing us to provide support to employees across the country.

Solutions Engineer

We are new to the MSP space and needed a tool to automate patching, deployment, etc.

What I like most about Ninja is that it is such a versatile tool, you can use it for just about anything you need as helpdesk, system admin, desktop application admin and probably much more.

IT Manager

The management of the hardware inventory of machines and non-networked devices connected to them needs to be improved.

The remote access gives us more than one option.

Overall, NinjaOne is a highly capable and user-friendly RMM platform that strikes a strong balance between simplicity and performance.

While NinjaOne is a strong platform overall, there are a few areas where it can fall short.

It saves us from the weekly patch management that we would manually have to do without it.

The customization and freedom that we have over this tool is fantastic.

Systemadministrator

We were also able to significantly reduce maintenance costs per device for customers.

Their support has been great, and our account executive is also really knowledgeable. If we can't figure it out via the dojo docs, we've always been given clear instructions via their support team.

IT support technician

we trialled it a few months back and it could not handle onedrive folder in the users folder.

This works for some of the smaller data stores, but not the larger ones.

Automation Engineer

It is our most critical line of business application for supporting our clients and we are very happy with the solution.

IT Infrastructure Manager

Implementation and support have been excellent, we've had regular contact from our account manager, good guidance from support and very quick response times

Managing the endpoint management of a single device or even the entire organization is easy.

IT Specialist

They are a great RMM most of the features you need for managing and configuring all your devices.

NinjaOne is the Best Value for your Dollar RMM Service out there.

Help Desk Supervisor

One feature I used heavily was the round robin feature for ticketing.

Managing Director

NinjaOne was more expensive than other RMM solutions, with the license not including remote support features or helpdesk features.

NOC lead

We were able to lift and shift from our old RMM in a matter of weeks and now are building at an incredible pace.
