AI Generated Summary
AI-generated. Powered by real user reviews.
- G2 reviewers report that NinjaOne excels in overall user satisfaction, boasting a significantly higher G2 Score compared to ESET PROTECT. Users appreciate its versatility, noting that it effectively manages devices, applications, and more, making it a comprehensive solution for IT management.
- According to verified reviews, NinjaOne's ease of use and setup are standout features, with users highlighting its intuitive interface and quick deployment process. In contrast, while ESET PROTECT is praised for its integration with operating systems, some users mention that it can take longer to configure effectively.
- Reviewers mention that NinjaOne's continuous updates and AI-driven patch management simplify the maintenance process, enhancing reliability. ESET PROTECT, while effective in risk assessment and cybersecurity, has received feedback indicating that its patch management could be more user-friendly.
- Users say that ESET PROTECT offers a robust suite of cybersecurity tools, which many find beneficial for comprehensive risk management. However, some users feel that the learning curve for its advanced features, like the kusto query language scripting, can be steep compared to NinjaOne's more straightforward approach.
- G2 reviewers highlight the quality of support provided by NinjaOne, with many users expressing satisfaction with the responsiveness and helpfulness of the support team. ESET PROTECT also receives positive remarks for its support, but NinjaOne's higher ratings in this area suggest a more consistent experience for users seeking assistance.
- According to recent user feedback, both products have their strengths, but NinjaOne's higher volume of reviews indicates a broader user base and more consistent performance. ESET PROTECT is noted for its high-quality security features, yet the sheer number of positive experiences with NinjaOne suggests it may be the more reliable choice for everyday IT management needs.
