CEO Computer & Network Security Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Manage Engine is superior to NinjaOne" March 30, 2026 5.0 Very professional, Very supportive, and made onboarding our devices super easy. We were coming from NinjaOne after a horrible issue with them and their billing. ManageEngine was able to make it so simple we moved operations quickly and without major impact to our users. 100% ManageEngine > NinjaOne. The value you get also puts things like Altera where you pay a massive fee per tech for "unlimited" endpoints. Except its not unlimited; its limited to how many 1 tech can do... Pros The inclusiveness of the product, the segementation between Device management and mobile device is a long running unnecessary division. The product has a natural and easy to use flow that can be picked up quickly by a Helpdesk I to a Sr. Engineer Cons There is not a ton I dont like, #1 issue the drop down from changing clients sometimes is a bit sticky and takes a second selection. A few more wizards would also be nice.

IT Director Computer & Network Security Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Robust Endpoint Management for Serious IT Operations" July 14, 2025 5.0 I run an MSP and use Endpoint Central to manage multiple mid-size clients. It’s not just another tool — it’s a control tower. After implementation, we cut troubleshooting time in half and gained real visibility over patch compliance and endpoint health. It takes effort to learn, but once properly deployed, it gives you scale, traceability, and peace of mind. It’s ideal for teams that manage infrastructure seriously and need to show compliance and results, not just "monitoring with pretty graphs." Pros Patch management that works. Reliable, flexible scheduling, and solid reporting. Built-in compliance reports aligned with CIS Controls help justify decisions to leadership. Easy-to-use asset inventory with exportable, filtered reports for hardware and software. Complete vulnerability management, with CVE correlation and direct remediation actions. Replaces multiple tools by centralizing patching, inventory, scripting, compliance, and more. Cons The platform is very extensive, which means a real learning curve. It’s not plug-and-play for junior techs. The interface feels dated in some areas, and reporting dashboards require manual setup. Switched from [N-sight RMM](https://www.capterra.com/p/163344/N-sight/) It's a strategic move of our company and centralized features.

Pros the use of the remote troubleshoting tool, it is easy to use, and it help use to have a faster helpdesk than others tools Cons The way the settings are arranged is a bit messy; it needs to be more organized in terms of where each setting should go.

Systems Administrator Plastics Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "My experience with ManageEngine Endpoint Central MSP" November 1, 2024 5.0 Love the support and that I can always get dedicated service whenever I need it. From actual people, thats the most important part. Pros The central hub of management is the best part. I dont have to jump around to various different servers and software pieces to achieve what I can achieve in one place. Love the dashboards and simplicity of being able to visually see what I'm looking for without having to investigate every time. Cons The cloud version has its benefits but not sure if they out weigh the benefits of the on-prem solution. Seems like the cloud version doesn't offer as much.

It’s a great product for IT teams looking to automate patching, streamline software deployment, and provide reliable remote access. It simplifies daily operations and enhances productivity across the board. Pros ManageEngine Endpoint Central MSP is very easy to use and straightforward to set up, even for teams that may not have a lot of time to dedicate to deployment. The interface is intuitive, and its remote access capabilities work seamlessly, allowing technicians to quickly and reliably assist users. The platform’s patch management and software deployment features are among its strongest advantages—both are automated, efficient, and help significantly reduce manual workload. These capabilities make it an excellent tool for maintaining a secure, well‑managed environment across multiple endpoints. Overall, its combination of usability and powerful automation features makes it a great fit for MSPs and IT departments. Cons Support could be improved. While the product itself is strong, responses to support tickets could be faster and provide clearer guidance. Review Source Sandeep M.

Consolidates patching, software deployment, asset management, remote control, device tracking, and security controls in a single console—reducing tool sprawl for MSPs. 6. Reliable OS and third‑party application patching with automation, detailed compliance reporting, and flexible approval policies across multiple customer tenants. 7. Good Automation and Scripting: Supports custom scripts, scheduled tasks, and policy‑based actions, helping MSPs standardize operations and reduce manual work. Cons 1\. Performance may slow down when managing a large number of endpoints. 2. The interface can feel cluttered and not very intuitive, especially for new users. Review Source PE Pieter E.
