When we demo'd NinjaOne, we were not able to fully get the demo off the ground. We had issues and needed support. Ninja didn't get us the support or time involvement to help complete the demo and make the sales. Automox went above and beyond during our demo. We got the …
NinjaOne does not patch 32 bit applications well, had a lot of errors while on trial, and the interface was noticeably lagging and slow. NinjaOne uses a third party for third party patching whereas Automox has it integrated within.
NinjaOne does really well as an RMM. They are still a baby in patching, but they are growing rapidly. Qualys for patching is a little complicated to use. You actually need to be certified with them to comfortably use it. Their support is a little bit hard to work with.
Automox has a much better user interface. Much simpler to use and share tasks with other team members. They offer great additional training and certifications to help you become an expert.
Cloud-based solution with no need for on-prem infrastructure. Support Windows, macOS, Linux, and third-party applications. Cost-effective solution compared with other vendors.
Automox is by far the easiest to use and does a better job patching. The built in AI tool is a real time saver making writing Powershell scripts quick and easy.
Automox lets us control so much more and makes it incredibly easy to target very specific devices for very specific actions. it is also incredibly reliable and I know it will patch as expected with very minimal monitoring. Automox has been the most stable of all the tools I …
While reviewing options, Automox seemed to be the better fit for our needs. Other options seemed to be near the same price point, but then had minimum annual order amounts that were beyond our current needs. Automox also met our requirements for 'must have' features and went …
Special thing about Automox is that it has customer deploy packages for many remote end points where as other tools listed does not have that privileges. Other tools are not user interface friendly where as Automox user interface is very easy and customizable as well. Unique …

Chose Automox
All of the products we looked at in this space have very similar capabilities. Oftentimes it's not IF the product does something but HOW it's done. Automox had, for our purposes, a superior administrative interface and a more highly engaged Pre-deployment, Deployment, and …
Our primary goal was to find a solution that does patching and does it well. Compared to the other products we evaluated, Automox was the only one to offer true cross-platform patching support. Likewise, the Automox endpoint agent has a much lighter footprint on devices than …
The competitors I evaluated seem to be more focused on MSP customers, which is not our situation. Also I used Automox at a prior company with some success.
I was able to update browsera like edge and chrome which have updates every few days, automatically. No more emails to ask people to update edge or chrome. Display drivers and dell drivers are not visible for users, having Automox update them make it much easier for users as not all of the users are technical.
Well suited for support and management of a large fleet of endpoints, particularly across multiple regions and locations. Its well suited for MSPs for this reason. Its also effective for managing patching and updates for server infrastructure, where some other products are unable to manage. Its useful being able to access these features across multiple networks and domains. There is an option to monitor network equipment such as switches, but it didn't provide any information that wasn't already provided in the switches cloud portal.
Remote connections: the NinjaRemote client is spectacular and very easy to use and navigate. It quickly connects to customer systems so my engineers are able to work. As a bonus, they also offer a really good mobile app to connect to client systems.
Antivirus: Bitdefender Endpoint Protection is built directly into the NinjaOne portal. This makes deploying and maintaining AV very easy.
OS Patching: NinjaOne makes it very easy to handle patching across multiple clients and locations. It is very easy to use and doesn't take long to set up.
Support: NinjaOne support is always very prompt and helpful.
Documentation: the NinjaOne Dojo is a one-stop shop for all of your FAQs, guides, and forum needs. You can find almost anything here to help you deploy and maintain NinjaOne.
Automation Library: NinjaOne comes preloaded with a large number of ready-to-go automations. They also provide you with a scripting module to create your own.
Server patching orchestration. There is no way to patch and reboot systems in order of importance, such as database servers before application servers.
Worklets for patching .net core and similar.
Worklets for removing unwanted Java installs or other unwanted software.
Integration with Tenable Vulnerability Management.
AI script development should be included at no additional cost; GPT or Gemini can be used instead for free and pasted into Automox. Why charge when others are free?
Official worklets are slow to be added or updated.
This is a software that just works. Once configured its a set and forget kind of tool that keeps things up to date and alerts me if something is wrong. I was able to work through an expansion project to deploy an additional 500 devices in almost no time and create a robust self-patching environment.
We already did. After evaluating many platforms, we found the cybersecurity of the company, its development direction, and the performance of the platform to be far superior at its price point.
It's great at what it does. We're able to veiw endpoints that are online in real time, and run scans on them to ensure they're still compliant. The software itself is very easy to use and set up on end points, with the main admin portal having a clean and very easy to understand set up
NinjaOne is easy to use, intuitive, and provides great value for our organization specifically with inventory tracking and patch management. There is also a wealth of control from an RMM perspective that we have over our fleet of hardware as well as customer websites. The communications with our account representative is outstanding as well. I'd highly recommend for organizations to engage with NinjaOne, and this is from a user who's used other RMM's and related software offerings at different MSP's. Go NinjaOne!
I did not need to reach out to support often but when I did the answers were relatively correct and they were answered quickly. The only thing I might "ding" their support on was their lack of understanding of OS's different from Windows and especially Linux. Other than that I was satisfied
Ninja support has always been top notch. They have always been responsive and efficient both in troubleshooting issues or talking to me at a high-level about on-going improvements or needed changes. Both sales and Technical support has been good and I've been very pleased with the Customer service we have received from Ninja
Easy to learn and all of the functions and features were easy to learn. Once I started learning all of the features and functions, it made my everyday tasks much easier and more productive. The user interface is very easy to use. If I did have any questions, the Ninja Dojo was a big help.
It was nice and self paced learning. The sections were easy to understand and the functionality was very worthwhile. The online training was very easy to learn and intuitive. I did not feel the need to ask for any clarification or assistance with any of the sections. I am still learning a lot of the functions but fined it very easy to use.
Implementing Automox successfully starts with a clear strategy for organizing and grouping devices based on operating systems, environments, or business criticality. This ensures that patching and configuration policies can be applied with precision. A phased rollout approach is essential—beginning with a pilot group allows teams to test patching schedules, reboot behaviors, and custom Worklets before scaling across the organization. Leveraging Worklets from the start can significantly boost automation by enforcing security baselines and performing routine system tasks. Integration with existing SOC tools, such as SIEMs, enhances visibility and response time by correlating patch compliance with threat intelligence. Additionally, aligning patching schedules with operational downtimes minimizes disruptions, and consistent monitoring and reporting helps maintain compliance and prepare for audits. Overall, Automox offers a streamlined and effective solution, but its true value is unlocked through thoughtful planning, testing, and integration with existing IT and security workflows.
We felt that Automox provided us with the functionality our MSP offered, including OS and device patching, as well as remote control capabilities, but in a better and more manageable way. We also felt the usability of the tool gave us the ability to be effective in our way of working, as well as integrating with Rapid7 was a massive benefit for us.
NinjaOne has the most rounded set of features however I believe all of the programs have there own plus and minus points. We use a mixture of programs however NinjaOne is the most heavily used.
Being a start up, we have pivoted our strategies a number of times. The pay as you go model has worked very well for us, and has prevented us from overprovisioning
The time saved pulling reports to provide to auditors has been well worth our small spend on the solution
We have no need to maintain a scanning tool or invest in hardware thanks to the SaaS nature of Automox
