System Management Software

One drawback of NinjaOne is that some of its advanced features can feel a bit limited compared to more robust enterprise tools, especially when it comes to deeper customization and reporting.

The reporting, in particular, could be more flexible and detailed, which can make it a bit challenging when you need very specific insights for clients or internal use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One of the main challenges it solves is managing endpoints across different locations. Instead of switching between multiple tools or systems, everything can be monitored and managed from a single dashboard, which saves a lot of time and effort.

It also makes it easier to automate routine tasks like patching, updates, and basic troubleshooting. This reduces manual work and helps keep systems secure and up to date without needing constant attention. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One downside of ServiceNow ITSM is that the platform can become complex when heavily customized, which may make maintenance and upgrades more challenging. Licensing costs can also be high for smaller organizations. Additionally, implementing advanced features sometimes requires strong platform knowledge, including scripting and platform architecture. The interface can feel overwhelming for new users because of the large number of modules, tables, and configuration options available. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

ServiceNow ITSM helps solve common IT support challenges such as scattered ticket management, lack of process standardization, and limited visibility into service operations. By centralizing incidents, problems, changes, and requests into a single platform, it improves transparency and accountability across IT teams. Automation reduces manual work and ensures processes follow defined workflows. This results in faster issue resolution, better SLA tracking, improved communication between teams, and more reliable reporting for decision-making. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Pricing plans could be easier to find. I initially thought it was very expensive but after engaging with support I was informed about a cheaper team plan.

In my mind, a team plan is always the more expensive option in a pricing structure. I am a sole employee software provider, so I did not consider the team plan to be applicable to me until I spoke to customer support. It ended up being the cheaper option for me.

Prior to using LogRocket, if a customer reported an issue with my software solution, I had to engage with that customer directly and ask them to recreate the issue. Which is a lot of trouble for me and also the end user. Now that I use LogRocket, I just have to ask the user the time or date of their interaction, and I can review their session and see what issues they had.

I can always also be proactive in finding and fixing bugs in production instead of being informed by an end user, which could damage my reputation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One thing I dislike about Atera is that some advanced features feel limited compared to more complex RMM platforms. Occasionally the interface can feel a bit slow when managing a large number of devices. However, overall the platform still delivers great value for the price and continues to improve with updates. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Atera helps me solve the challenge of managing multiple clients and devices efficiently from a single, centralized platform. With it, I can monitor systems in real time, automate patch management, and provide remote support quickly without having to juggle multiple tools. As a result, downtime for my clients is reduced, my response times improve, and my overall productivity increases. It also makes it easier to scale my IT services in a more controlled way while keeping costs predictable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The reporting dashboard feels clunky when I need custom security metrics. Pulling SLA breach data requires extra filters and exports, and that slows down my weekly compliance reporting by about an hour. The UI also feels overwhelming when I’m trying to do quick mobile checks during standups, and non-technical stakeholders tend to get lost when navigating the queues. A simpler drag-and-drop report builder, or a much better mobile view, would go a long way toward fixing this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We used to struggle with scattered email threads and spreadsheets to track SOC incidents and compliance audits, which led to slower responses and missed SLAs. Since moving to Jira Service Management, we’ve been able to automate ticket routing and set up SLA alerts, and the impact has been clear: about 30% faster resolution times and fewer escalations to execs. It’s also made audit prep much smoother—what used to take days can now be done in hours. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

New Relic can feel complex for newcomers. The platform is powerful, but understanding all its dashboards, APM details, and configuration options takes significant time.

Many reviewers note that onboarding requires a noticeable investment, especially for teams new to observability tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Lack of visibility into the customer journey

Problem:

E‑commerce teams often struggle to understand exactly where users encounter friction—slow product pages, checkout failures, or payment gateway delays.

How New Relic solves it:

New Relic provides end‑to‑end visibility of critical journeys like checkout and fulfillment, showing which technical issues directly impact revenue Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While Better Stack is a powerful tool, there are a few areas that could be improved. The pricing can feel a bit high for small teams or individual developers. Also, some of the more advanced features and configuration options come with a learning curve, especially for new users. It would be helpful to have more detailed documentation and tutorials to support complex use cases and make setup and troubleshooting easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Better Stack solves the problem of monitoring, incident management, and log tracking in one unified platform. Rather than relying on multiple separate tools, it brings everything together in one place, which saves time and reduces complexity. It helps me quickly spot downtime or performance issues with real-time alerts, so I can respond and resolve problems faster. As a result, system reliability improves and service disruptions are minimized. Overall, it makes application management more efficient and gives me better visibility into overall system health.

Some reports in the inventory area, especially those related to software, can still evolve. Expanding these analyses would provide a more complete set of information, facilitating the centralization of tools and improving IT asset control. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Milvus has been fundamental for the continuous evolution of my support. Through dashboards, reports, and detailed monitoring of the services, I can identify patterns, map recurring failures, and act more strategically on the root cause of problems. This allows us to move from a merely reactive stance and work on neutralizing recurring incidents, increasing team efficiency, improving SLAs, and enhancing the quality of service provided to users.

I wish that Helpdesk 365 is able to automatically assign a ticket to our "teams ticket" without having to manually assign it to an agent/supervisor/admin from our team before it moves to "teams ticket". At the moment I can see all the unassigned tickets as I am admin, but Helpdesk 365 is being used by 3 different departments/teams from our organization. There are tickets that are for HR (my team) in the unassigned tickets column, which cannot be seen in the teams ticket column unless I assign the ticket directly to one of the members of the HR Team. It was a bit hard, because we didn't know why the requesters are receiving all notifications related to their ticket, because the default is all yes. It stressed us out for a bit, because all emails sent to HRHelp email creates a ticket ID when we were used to just emailing HR Help to converse with our team who shares this inbox.

Helpdesk 365 helps us organize and prioritize tickets, making it easy to see outstanding issues and allocate them to the right team members, enhancing our support system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Reporting could be better. I wish we had more control over some of the automated reports and the notifications that go out (I'd like to update some of the messages). More integrations to outside software would be great (like Microsoft projects). Resource forecasting is a challenge with current functionality. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Autotask allows us to use 1 tool for multiple areas and departments. That is the biggest benefit. Even though there are some other tools that might work better for Delivery teams (for example), having everything in 1 system is more beneficial. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes the website will just not load, and I have to wait quite a few times. Also, Metric Explorer sometimes crashes if it has a tad bit more data to share. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use Coralogix for monitoring logs, alerting, and tracing, enhancing developer work and on-call team efficiency. It also optimizes costs with the TCO optimizer and integrates seamlessly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The mobile app is functional, but it doesn't feel as powerful or fluid as the desktop version when replying to tickets on a mobile device. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Freshservice solves the problem of ticket chaos and manual overhead. Before, it was difficult to track who was handling which Google Workspace request. Now, with auto-assignment, tickets are instantly routed to the right agent, and canned responses allow us to resolve common issues in seconds. This has benefited me by significantly reducing my manual workload and allowing me to maintain a high resolution rate without feeling overwhelmed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While Datadog is powerful and feature-rich, it can take some time to fully learn and configure for new users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Datadog helps us monitor all our systems, applications, and logs in one place. It helps reduce downtime and keeps our services running smoothly. This saves time, improves team collaboration, and gives us better visibility into our infrastructure. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There’s nothing to dislike. It’s the number 1 observability tool to use, implement, and monitor applications. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

In Dynatrace, we can set up alerts based on anomalies as well as static thresholds. It can notify you before your application goes down, or when any issue occurs, helping you keep things secure. We can also set service-level boundaries for SLA, SLO, and SLI. In addition, we can create multiple dashboards for the DevOps team to keep an eye on the application’s performance. Overall, it helps you secure your application and address problems before it goes down. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The product interface feels a bit clunky and never quite achieves a “premium” or “modern” aesthetic. That said, it isn’t a major issue, since the interface is mainly used by administrators.

Out of the box, there’s an intimidating wall of tasks that need to be set up and configured before everything is running smoothly. This includes patch management settings (auto-approving and deploying with test groups), OS deployment (creating a golden image and configuring networking for PXE boot), and software configuration plus the self-service portal. The latter has been significantly streamlined over time thanks to the addition of thousands of templates that Manage Engine have built out since we first implemented the solution.

Endpoint Central boasts an incredibly versatile toolset that addresses more thzn I can fit into a single review. It completely automates and streamlines patch management, software deployment and self-service, provides end-user workstation support and toolsets (remote capabilities, remote command line, inventory details and reporting, and more), OS deployment and configuration, etc.

For the purpose of this review I'll hone in on the end to end deployment and configuration of workstations, which has undoubtedly saved our organisation hours of otherwise menial and repetitive configurations and management.

Using the OS deployment tool, we are able to apply a golden image that already has the Endpoint Central agent installed - using this we can deploy to a blank machine with the major prerequisites already in place; i.e agent installed, domain joined, and an administrator account already pre-loaded for any situations in remote support where cached credentials may be required (Think domain-trust issues and such). This deployment allows the workstation to be already named and loaded into a specific OU in active directory.

The task configurations can vary from browser configurations, software deployments, certification installs, firewall settings, registry changes and more; but most importantly these can be grouped together into custom task configurations that can be targeted based on criteria such as the OU that the PC is based in. This allows us end to end configuration and complete targeted build of the workstation, bar the provisioning of the end-user profile, and frees up what would otherwise be hours of turnaround for staff onboarding/offboarding configurations.

The core observability features are strong overall, but there are still a few areas that could be improved. Real User Monitoring (RUM) and synthetic monitoring, in particular, feel fairly basic right now, and adding more capabilities in these areas would make the platform even more powerful.

CubeAPM helps us address the challenge of monitoring multiple services and systems that were previously spread across different tools. By bringing logs, metrics, distributed tracing, and infrastructure monitoring together in a single platform, it gives us a more unified view of our applications. As a result, we can identify errors faster, trace slow API calls more easily, and debug issues across services with less back-and-forth, which improves our troubleshooting speed and overall system reliability. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It can take a significant amount of time and effort to train new users on its advanced functionality and full set of features. In my opinion, it’s also noticeably pricier than other APM tools I’ve worked with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

My experience with IBM Instana in our organization has been largely positive. Before deploying it, we struggled to identify performance issues quickly. Since implementing it, it has helped us resolve incidents faster and has also given us real-time monitoring capabilities, which makes it easier to spot and address problems as they arise.

One of the things I dislike about Tines is that when working with run script events, I really miss having a more advanced integrated development environment (IDE). I understand that Tines is not intended to function as a traditional development tool, but having a more robust script editor would be very helpful when building more complex workflows. Features like autocomplete, more advanced syntax highlighting, or better error handling could significantly enhance the experience of writing and debugging code directly within the platform Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Tines helps us solve the challenge of integrating various tools and platforms into one seamless workflow. We use Tines to connect our messaging platform with other tools, allowing us to centralize communications and actions. For example, we can create comments in external tools directly from our messaging platform, ensuring that everything stays in one place. Additionally, we automate task creation for our teams, assigning tasks through Tines by simply filling out a form. One of the biggest benefits is the ability to generate PDF reports from our tools automatically, eliminating the need for manual report creation.

Tines has also enabled us to integrate and automate workflows between tools that don't have native integrations. This flexibility has significantly improved our efficiency across multiple areas of our work, allowing us to streamline processes, reduce manual tasks, and improve overall productivity.

The hierarchical grouping for OT devices is still pretty manual. Every time maintenance swaps a sensor or adds a new actuator I have to go rebuild the tree structure by hand, and if you forget one sub-group the maps look like a jigsaw with missing pieces. It’s not a deal-breaker, but after a busy shutdown week it feels like busywork that should be smarter by now. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We used to fly blind on predictive maintenance—machines would just fail and we’d scramble. Now PRTG gives us trending curves I can actually show the maintenance guys in plain English. We cut unplanned downtime by roughly 40 % on the critical lines and shaved about 18 % off our quarterly energy bill because we finally saw which machines were idling at full power overnight. The ROI showed up in the first six months. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
