Ninite Reviews & Product Details

Ninite’s centralized interface makes it easy to monitor update statuses across all our workstations and respond quickly to critical patching needs. The flexibility to automate or manually apply updates — even at scale — has been especially helpful during system rollouts and testing phases. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We’ve not encountered any real drawbacks so far. Its minimalist design avoids unnecessary complexity, though a more visual log of past interventions would be a welcome addition. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Ninite allows us to quickly and efficiently install and update third party apps. In addition to manual installations, created application installation scripts for use in our RMM tool is extremely easy and reliable. Overall, I couldn't be happier with Ninite!

Additional products available for application installation and update would be nice, but I understand that this is oftentimes limited by the software publisher. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nininte Pro always me to script software installation quickly and easily with my RMM solution, N-Able N-Central. Simply put, I have never had a problem with Ninite. It works exactly as advertised every time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Although it is out of Ninite's control, some third-party apps used to be available in Ninite but are no longer listed. I understand that Ninite removed some apps at the publisher's request, so I don't fault Ninite for that problem. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Ninite has all the most common third-party programs in one spot for installation. There is no more hopping around from URL to URL or keeping a thumb drive with updated executables. This makes my job easier on new computer setups. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are some older pieces of software on there that are no longer supported by those who developed them. They take up space and should be replaced with more relevant software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's very straightfoward. Choose your essential apps, deploy, click on it and and forget! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It could be more publicized. Most will hear about it through word-of-mouth, in a more techy sector. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It has helped me to download all the necessary programs and applications for my computer, its ease of use is impressive, the fact that it can perform multiple downloads and installations is phenomenal, I no longer have to worry about searching for installers in a individual because I know that with Ninite I get all the programs I need in one place, searching, downloading and installing the programs you need is something quite simple to do, it is only a matter of giving a few clicks and you can install without any kind problems all the programs you need, the fact that it only installs the necessary programs and not additional programs or extensions is a big, BIG point in its favor, since with individual installers we run the risk of downloading and installing programs or extensions that really they are unnecessary for us.

To date, I have nothing to complain about using Ninite. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love being able to have most of the applications I have my students use in one installer. I also love that I can configure it to my needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Not every application that I use is supported. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I always use more or less the same software in all of my machines and most of those softwares are open source and very common. I love Ninite so that instead of investing time in downloading and installing at least 10 different software packages, I just click some checkboxes and just download and install one file (which of course downloads&installls everything else). I also do not have to worry about versions.

I only have up to 10 machines, so I use Ninite's free version manually. But if I had at least 50 machines, I'd definitely splurge on the Pro version. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

To use it effectively, you are limited to what they are offering. If you need something else (like Git or Sourcetree) then you lose effectiveness the more programs you need that aren't included in Ninite. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Ninite is great, I used it daily when I worked in repairs and maintenance to install all of the necessary software after a OS reinstall Good Support. I don't like bloatware and always delete unnecessary programs from new computers and install the good, free, useful software I prefer Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wish it had a better centralized user interface for those that manage many machines If I had to pick something, I guess I would just like more applications to be supported Limited selection of applications, no way to upload your own exe o msi Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
