They're a great partner. When they promise a feature they deliver it and they're hard at work building the most scalable traditional RMM product that will exist in the market. Pros It's ability to handle 3rd party patches is significant for being a default feature set. They also have built a great first pane of glass experience. Cons N-Central does not have the ability to automate against the system itself. This has required my team to work around some of the constraints instead of building exactly what they need. Alternatives considered [NinjaOne](https://www.capterra.com/p/184229/NinjaOne/) Reason for choosing N-central It has better scalability and the company is a better partner.

Senior Cyber Security Engineer Computer & Network Security Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Reliable and Powerful RMM Platform for MSP Growth" May 11, 2026 5.0 Overall, my experience with N-central has been very positive. It has become a core platform in our managed services operations, allowing us to streamline endpoint management, automate repetitive tasks, improve patch compliance, and proactively monitor client systems. Its robust feature set and reliable performance have helped us deliver better service and support to our customers. Pros N-central provides excellent visibility and centralized management across all client environments. The automation capabilities, device monitoring, patch management, and remote access tools significantly reduce administrative overhead, improve response times, and deliver a strong ROI by saving both time and operational costs. 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. Cons The initial setup and learning curve can be challenging, especially for new administrators. Some advanced configurations and policy tuning require deeper product knowledge, and the interface can occasionally feel cluttered when navigating complex environments. Switched from [ScreenConnect](https://www.capterra.com/p/147830/ScreenConnect/) We switched from LabTech to N-central to gain a more modern, scalable, and reliable RMM platform with stronger automation, better patch management, and improved network/server visibility. N-central provided better overall operational efficiency, easier policy-based management, and stronger ROI by reducing manual administrative effort while improving service delivery across our client environments. Review Source CS CALEB S. Network Engineer Information Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "The Shadow of its Former Self" April 30, 2026 3.0 Over the last several years, N-Central has remained largely stagnant, with several core functionalities actually experiencing regressive performance. This lack of meaningful innovation has forced significant operational overhead onto our team as we compensate for the tool's shortcomings. With a clear trend of rising licensing costs paired with a decline in both product stability and support quality, the value proposition is becoming increasingly difficult to justify. Pros N-Central excels at aggregating granular device telemetry, which is essential for proactive client support. The recent UI modernization provides a more streamlined, contemporary workspace that improves overall visibility, but still needs refinement. Cons While the monitoring is strong, the patching and security suites proved inefficient for our client base, requiring excessive manual intervention due to unreliable reporting data. Despite numerous engagements, support was unable to provide a permanent resolution for these core stability issues. Furthermore, the company’s recent trajectory suggests a shift toward prioritizing aggressive monetization over product quality and technical support. We hope to see a return to their original customer-centric philosophy in future roadmaps. Review Source AP Andrew P.

Any problems tend to be resolved quickly. I would recommend. Pros Many great features for managing Pcs and clients. Automation and customer specific rules work really well. Cons Agents getting disconnected and needing to reinstall manuelly. Monitoring can be confusing. Windows updates have been weird lately. Review Source AA Andrew A. Security Architect Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "A Solid RMM, with some oversights which hurt what could be a perfect product." May 4, 2026 5.0 Love/hate. The power it affords is amazing, and in some places, the technical places, it affords a lot of possibility and is easy to use. On the other hand, fighting with the UI is tiresome, and important things like the rule engine controlling which patches are and aren't approved is obtuse and overrides and rule application order don't make logical sense. I am happy to expand on this topic on a phone call if it will improve the product, because I believe in it. PLEASE contact me. Pros The customization it affords with regard to things like patching and alerting users to needed reboots, alongside the Automations provided from the community are highlights. The Automation Builder is great and easy to use, and the fact that it is based on and allows the integration of custom PowerShell scripts makes it very powerful. Cons The UI needs work and was recently made worse. Our company uses it as a cloud-only fully-probeless deployment, and even things like the home screen refuse to land us where we should be going. The new Asset view is clunky and missing lots of features, and the old Device View doesn't allow for custom or resizable columns. These are the gateways to accessing the tools and viewing, filtering, sorting, and launching tasks needs to be easy, fast, robust, and have icons for easy identification and readability. Some of these things should be obvious oversights and it feels like we are going backward with things like the recent removal of all icons. Whoever came up with that idea needs to be fired. 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. This is in dire need of attention. I am happy to expand on this topic on a phone call if it will improve the product, because I believe in it. PLEASE contact me.

System Engineer Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Solic performer in the MSP arena; best OOB performance among the competition" April 30, 2026 5.0 its been solid. we have never had a massive amount of downtime, but there have been a couple. for the 2 instances were services were affected, n-central did reach out and let us know that they knew and were working on it. they kept us informed and resolved the issue in a timely manner.. which for an MSP is minutes, not hours of god forbid, days. Pros over the years, i have used a lot of RMM/RAT applications. i honestly like N-Central the best. i have a wide selection of stats and metrics available at a glance and if need more details, there are plenty of tools available for investigation.. you have scripts, file push, system cmd line access. installs are easy via the probe or manually and the Take Control app always connects and its pretty stable. Cons I was surprised by the inadequate reporting features. you would think that if i have all these stats and data that i can see on the page, i should be able to check the columns i need and export to a csv, but no. the canned reports are useless. unless you are willing to access n-central via API, i wouldnt even go to the reports section. its the one part of the product i consider subpar and even useless. Switched from [ConnectWise Automate](https://www.capterra.com/p/142789/ConnectWise-Automate/) cost was astronomical and product was worse, harder setup, less features, more bloat. switching to n-central was easy and worth every penny saved.

April 28, 2026 4.0 It provides a solid, centralized platform for monitoring, patch management, and remote support, which helps streamline workflows and reduce the need for multiple tools. The automation capabilities are a major advantage, allowing routine maintenance and issue remediation to run with minimal manual intervention. While there are occasional slowdowns and support response times can vary, the system itself is stable and capable at scale. For organizations managing multiple endpoints or clients, it delivers strong value and dependable performance overall. Pros What stands out most about N-able N-central is how it consolidates monitoring, management, and automation into a single, scalable platform. The unified dashboard gives clear visibility across endpoints, servers, and network devices without needing to jump between tools. Automation policies—especially for patching and remediation—save a significant amount of manual effort and reduce human error. Remote access is fast and reliable, which is critical for day-to-day support. Cons While N-able N-central is a strong platform overall, performance can be inconsistent at times. Certain actions—like loading dashboards, executing remote tasks, or navigating between views—can feel slower than expected, especially during peak usage. This can impact efficiency when quick responses are needed. Additionally, support responsiveness has been hit-or-miss. While the team is knowledgeable, there are instances where response times lag or follow-ups take longer than ideal, particularly during urgent situations. Improving platform speed consistency and tightening support turnaround times would make a noticeable difference in the overall experience.

Senior Solution Architect Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "N-central was easy to quickly setup and deploy for our company" April 28, 2026 4.0 Our overall experience with N-central has been very good and we'd recommend it to others companies similar to our who are looking for alternatives to Kaseya and Connectwise like we were when we started looking for a new RMM partner. Pros We liked the user interface and management processes the most about deploying n-central. The user interface is very streamlined and helps greatly for navigation between clients. Cons The only downside we've had at this time is sometimes getting customer support on the phone, we'd really like it if it were a more consistent experience about who speak with on the phone when issues come up.

Switched from [ConnectWise Automate](https://www.capterra.com/p/142789/ConnectWise-Automate/) We made the switch from ConnectWise due to the increasing pricing, continuous security vulnerabilities and lack of support received for constant issues that occurred using their products. Review Source AC Andrew C. Systems Administrator Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Very Customizable, but Missing Key Features" April 28, 2026 4.0 The system is complex and has lots of possibilities, but there are still features that are needed to make this a stellar platform. Support has been pretty good, but there are often cases where we have to go back and forth with them on a case. We've had some cases open for 3+ months before being partially resolved, and others open for nearly 6 months that still have no resolution. Pros There is a high degree of customization and ability to have granular controls at multiple levels (globally, per customer, and per customer site). Cons We have run into a lot of issues with the Take Control (remote control module) in the past. Most of our issues have been resolved, but there are still features missing that would be very beneficial, such as executing PowerShell commands through the terminal without having to remote into the machine, or a backstage mode that allows for a separate technician facing remote desktop that does not interrupt the user session. Also, several new features are being released, but they appear to be incomplete, or lack documentation. The documentation of the system is often very difficult to navigate. Alternatives considered [NinjaOne](https://www.capterra.com/p/184229/NinjaOne/) Reason for choosing N-central We wanted the greater control and flexibility. While Ninja seemed easy to use, we were looking for a more mature product. Switched from [ConnectWise Automate](https://www.capterra.com/p/142789/ConnectWise-Automate/) Looking for a different tool.

We have used it for over 10 years and plan to continue doing so. Pros N-Central's remote support options are my favorite feature. The toolset goes beyond typical screen sharing, and allows your support staff to: view system metrics; access the command prompt; manage services, processes, printers; all from the background without interrupting the end users. Cons N-Central's system monitoring capabilities are very nice and informative. However, it takes a bit of work to get them dialed in. Switched from [LogMeIn Rescue](https://www.capterra.com/p/161344/LogMeIn-Rescue/)[LogMeIn Resolve](https://www.capterra.com/p/249584/GoTo-Resolve/) N-Central offers a more robust feature set than our previous solutions.

May 9, 2025 5.0 Great, really does speak volumes and i personally havent come across much more in terms of product sets thats so flexible. Pros The take control options, the flexibility of products that can be tagged onto the solution too. I also like the solutions pre-intergrated SNMP MIB's however would always ask for more as the SNMP walks are hard work. Cons The dashboards are not typical of monitoring software and we have requested newer better dashboards that we can create. Alternatives considered [ScreenConnect](https://www.capterra.com/p/147830/ScreenConnect/) Reason for choosing N-central At the time the pricing over the product was higher but we have since had better pricing! Switched from [Opsview Enterprise](https://www.capterra.com/p/130129/Opsview-Enterprise/) Opsview was all linux based with N-able there is a simple UI with no customised installations required. Review Source MC Matthew C. Systems Manager Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Quite good, with room to improve." April 24, 2025 4.0 It's been good. The learning curve is high, but once you get a feel for everything it becomes a powerful endpoint management tool. Scripting and third party app installs work well. Pros N Central does a good job of managing updates and pulls relevant data about each endpoint. The built in Take Control is a good bonus. We've been able to drop Splashtop and use that instead. SentinelOne integration is a breeze to setup and deploy to endpoints as well. Cons Take Control is a bit rough around the edges. It works and is fine for technicians, but can't be used for our end users. We had to use NinjaOne to allow our clients to remotely access their machines. Alternatives considered [NinjaOne](https://www.capterra.com/p/184229/NinjaOne/) Reason for choosing N-central The robust looking reports were the main factor. Take Control leaves a lot to be desired, so we may end up going the Ninja route at the end of our contract. Switched from [Datto RMM](https://www.capterra.com/p/213158/Datto-RMM/) We switched because Datto sucks. Scheduled updates never seemed to happen properly, price changes and welching on our contract after the changeover to Kaseya left a bad taste in my mouth. Review Source MS Miranda S.

We are leaving our MSP and they used this so we are hoping for a seamless transition. Pros I use N-Central products daily. They make my job in IT much easier. No need for other remote admin applications, inventory management, and helps to keep informed on products Cons Sometimes, N-Able had issues reporting the correct information or doesn't show a computer at all and I have to uninstall it and reinstall it Switched from [TeamViewer ONE](https://www.capterra.com/p/194565/TeamViewer/) Needed better reliability and wanted more product management Review Source DI Dennis I. IT Support Administrator Telecommunications Used the software for: 2+ years ### "NCentral Review" May 8, 2026 5.0 My overall experience with N-Central has been great. It's a great tool that takes a lot of the stress out of managing remote devices. And any time I have had an issue with NCentral that I couldn't figure out or resolve myself, your customer support team has been great in helping me out. They have always been very kind, knowledgeable and provided fast and efficient support. Pros my favorite thing about NCentral is the take control feature. Unlike using take control via Microsoft Teams, it actually gives you full control of the remote computer and you never lost control even when you restart it. I also really like the administrator command prompt tool. It's easy to access and you can get a lot done without bothering the users. 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. Cons This may just be me not knowing how to configure it? But on the all devices windows, I wish you could expand column width either by clicking a corner and dragging or by hovering over an edge of a column and double clicking and also I wish you could rearrange columns on the all devices window -basically like how Excel works. for example, the logged in user column is not visible on my screen unless I scroll over to the right and that makes the device name not visible - I would like to be able to see both at the same time and if I could rearrange the columns it would be helpful. Also, the logged in user column isn't wide enough in many cases for me to actually see who the logged in user is due to the length of the device name, I have to hover over it in order to see the popup with the full device name Review Source KW Kat W. VP of IT Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Good RMM that we have used for several years" May 5, 2026 4.0 N-Able / N-Central Customer service is great, our tickets are responded to promptly with helpful results. Pros Rollout is easy to accomplish within our 300 endpoint environment and pushing out software / Microsoft patches is effortless. The unattended remote access is both stable and extremely useful, an absolute necessity within our organization. Cons The reporting and asset management leads a lot to be desired. We are able to get detailed information about each machine when the data is pulled, but the bigger picture (historical data) of each endpoint and service requests / site history is lacking. Machines come off of management without notice and automatic retries seem to be unsuccessful without manual intervention. Review Source MT Michael T. Delivery Manager Technical solutions manager Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "N-Central - A robust multi device type monitoring and management system" April 28, 2026 4.0 Overall, The product is great for its designed usecase, it has flexibility to fit items in that were "second thought" which is nice. Pros N-central is a great platform for specific services. In todays world there are many competitors in similar spaces, N-Central sets itself apart for a verity of reasons. First and foremost the care touchpoints, being able to have open conversations about the product and our solutions goes a long way. There has been several occasions in which we needed to accomplish a specific monitoring need and while the solution was not available, I was able to have conversations to develop workarounds to get us our MVP. Flexibility of the tooling is what I appreciate the most, whether I'm wanting to do core monitoring, or flex into endpoint security, the tool has the capabilities available. There also seems to be continuous improvement for the user experience, from the GUI to the available feature set. Having set roadmaps lets us know what's in the pipeline and what we can expect. If I place myself in an admin category, even the reporting can be customized from OOB reports or directly tapping into the data lake itself. It makes the day to day management efficient and adds continuous value to my clients. Pricing is competitive compared to other solutions, which is the icing on the cake. Great value for the money for the flexibility provided. Cons For my specific use case, I'd love features revolving around network management. While the tool is robust for server/desktop management, it lacks when it comes to classic network management. Sure I can monitor a switch and add custom OID's for monitoring, but the display (device view) isn't revolving around the asset type, Its based around normal computer endpoints, and we have the ability to somewhat add network components to it. It also takes a TON of work to get decent results for network monitoring, weather it be BGP status, Directly executing configlets via ssh or simply polling CPU/Mem/Buffer states. If there were ready made templates for top cisco network devices, this would add massive value. Currently I have to staff an SME just for configuration and maint.

It's the core of our managed service offerings and provides our support staff with valuable client environment data. Allows our support team to have real-time data and securely remote connect to devices for quicker troubleshooting and remediation. Pros N-Central is a feature rich and comprehensive RMM. We use the hosted version and easily access our console from a web browser. MFA login, monitoring, patch management, remote access, notifications, and device management and maintenance all from one platform. Several built-in Integrations and API options allow for flexibility and automation. Cons No simple mobile device management options. No control over user account security settings.

It’s a reliable tool that does what it’s supposed to do—monitoring and managing systems effectively. It may not have the most modern look or the easiest learning curve, but once you get used to it, it works well and helps keep things under control. Pros What I like most about N-central is how everything is available in one place. It makes monitoring multiple devices and servers much easier without switching between tools. The automation features, especially patching and scripting, save a lot of time in day-to-day tasks. Alerts are quite helpful as well they usually catch issues early before they become bigger problems. Overall, it gives good visibility and control over the entire IT environment. Cons The interface could definitely be better. It feels a bit outdated and not very intuitive, especially for someone new to the tool. Some configurations, like setting up alerts or policies, take time to understand. Also, it can get a bit slow when dealing with a large number of devices or when loading detailed data.

I need to keep patient and employee data secure, so continuous automatic assessments are essential for me. With the reports, I have been able to visualize the company's security status and take action when needed. Pros N-central automates the most tedious security tasks, such as patch scheduling, software updates and vulnerability scanning. It's much easier to keep everything up to date, and I don't have to remember to do it all the time, precisely because it's automatic. I just need to check that everything is in order and verify the results. The reports are very detailed, and I can customize them according to my specific needs at the time. I have a summary of detected threats or comprised devices. I can manage all devices with a single software, so it's more accessible, faster and easier. Cons I don't like the interface. I find it outdated and overwhelming for new users. Additionally, it's a software that consumes a significant amount of system resources. It's very customizable, and you need to make configurations that can take days, but it's totally worth it. Review Source AK August K.

Like, while adding the time entry, if I do it manually, it is not saving the time entry, but if I select from the drop-down menu, it works.

After changing the status of a ticket, we cannot add a time entry, which should be allowed.
