"N-able is one of the best RMM's I have used to date"

5/5

What do you like best about N-able N-central?

I like that everyday I am still learning something new, and that is a good thing.

It is an easy platform to learn for the basics, it does get a lot more complicated due to all the featured that is available, but overall, implementation is easy, especially to get a device on N-Central.

This is a tool that I use on a daily bases, and I feel that it integrates really well with existing tools Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about N-able N-central?

Had some issues with the patch management side of things, but after logging my grievances with support, it got sorted out and even an updated version of the tool was released Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about N-able N-central?

I would love to see the billing for Professional licenses set to usage vs needing to purchase in bulk. This causes us to have a number of unused licenses that we are paying for. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about N-able N-central?

In all honesty the first line of support for the product at most times are really unhelpful with the standard answers. Wish there was an easier way to escalate. No offense to the support engineers. They're awesome. The "script" however..needs some work Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is N-able N-central solving and how is that benefiting you?

Remote control access without having to be on the same network of the device and without needing a vpn is absolutely insane.

Makes urgently remote accessing a device that much easier

Access to a device without having to be anywhere near it.

Not just that but having the tools to easily automate some grueling tasks Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
