Intuitive dashboard with an easy-to-navigate interface. Strong security compliance features (audit logs, alerting, RBAC). Excellent scalability for growing organizations.
  • The ease of deployment, and the ability to have different endpoint groups really makes administration so much easier.
  • Simple visibility of missing patches and vulnerabilities that need addressing Grouped into categories nicely with a "SLA" to prioritise The ability to deploy scripts remotely very easily

  • Easy to setup and get working. The critical vulnerabilities webinars are very helpful and give great insight into what needs to be patched etc.

Cons

  • Requires stable internet connectivity for optimal performance. Some advanced features may take time to configure for first-time users. Limited offline functionality compared to traditional on-prem tools.
  • I cant fault the platform for anything. the ease of use is simply superb!
  • The only real con was at initial signup - finding documentation to get started wasn't the most obvious. Saying that the software was simple enough to just dive in
  • Remote access is basic (no file transfer, chat, or reliable multi-monitor support) Requires manual effort for custom software packaging/updates Occasional issues with vendor driver detection Pricing increases steeply beyond 200 endpoints due to support requirements Some limitations exist, but can often be mitigated with workarounds or external tools
  • Great product so far, not noticed anything that can be marked as a con.
