Alec M
It Manager
5.0

Alec: My name is Alec. I'm IT manager for a real estate coaching company that has 150 employees, and I rate Atera a five out of five. We were currently using a managed service provider and we're bringing IT in-house, so we were looking for a platform that met the needs of our help desk and our employees. We chose Atera because it has multiple features built in without needing additional components, like the service desk and RMM side are all in one package. You can do scripting, can do monitoring, and they have a new feature that they're currently working on of integrating AI into both ticket handling as well as script creation. That ultimately led us to decide on Atera. Atera was pretty simple to set up. We were able to work with their onboarding department and get it all configured exactly how we wanted, deploy the agents through several different means, whether it be Microsoft Intune or using just an email for those clients that we don't have set up in Intune. Just make sure that you compare Atera with the other platforms that are available to see if it meets your exact needs. It is a little more training heavy, not as simple as some of the others out there, but it's more feature rich, and at least for us, was perfect for our needs. I.

It Manager

Alec: My name is Alec. I'm a team manager of a real estate coaching company with multiple locations in the US reviewing NinjaOne and I currently give it a four out of five stars. Currently, we partner with a managed service provider that is using NinjaOne. They said it was really good, so we did a trial, decided to proceed forward with it, and we're really liking it. We're moving away from that MSP, so we're needing to bring everything in-house and have some of the similar tools so we can assist all of our employees. We chose NinjaOne because it's a very simple program to use. It allows us to manage all of our workstations, both Windows and Mac, running scripts that we might need to, install any applications remotely that we might need to. And it also has the service desk component so that we are able to work through tickets, show upper management how many support issues that are coming through, how we're resolving them, and just further support our department and the needs that we have. Onboarding is pretty straightforward. You just install the agents. There's a little setup on the ticket side just to get it customized how we would like it, but overall, the setup for Ninja is pretty simple and straightforward. I would recommend that you look at NinjaOne and compare it to other options out there and make sure that it meets your current needs as well as your future needs. Being an internal tool, there's not much need that we have for it for managing out the clients and things like that, but it is geared more towards a managed service provider, so make sure it meets all your requirements for that.
