It's great for patch management, lets you schedule updates, great for software deployment, and remote desktop works well. It's easy to deploy and use and I'm in there almost every day. There are tons of reports you can pull and the script library is helpful too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It's tough to think of anything but if I could wishlist something it would be MDM capabilities (being able to remotely control GPO-type settings) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Ease of use. Pricing. Sophisticated.
These are the simple terms I would use.
Easy to set up and install.
First 100 agents Free is an outstanding business model and plan.
The application is sophisticated enough that I can geek out on it all day. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Limited functionality vs other RMM's
The Roadmap looks absolutely fantastic with upgrades and feature roll outs.
Some additional common scripts and network admin controls.
One thing that I would love to see, Organizations listed in the tree on the left. Rather than a drop down that i have to switch between.
A dashboard that would show a total (all organizations) status and then capable of drilling down. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Action1 is easy to setup. The Configuration of policies is straight forward. Really helps us streamline our infrastructure. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Sadly still missing an macOS and linux agent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It is easy to use, easy to immplement, integreation is great. Also the number of features is incredible. We use it frequently, everyday and it saved our lives. Customer support is great, there is also a discord channel, where you have live support and community channels. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There is none. There is nothing to dislike. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The tool is easy to use and understand. Third party patching is resolved quickly. Having a basic Remote Desktop solution builtin is great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Lack of thrid party intergrations and lack of detailed reporting / custom reporting and logging (I dont know it is on the roadmap so they are working towards it but not here currently) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Speparating workstations & servers into different groups has allowed us to stagger our updates as well as decrease our total number of vulnerabilities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
No vulnerability assesment report. Having the ability to export to a PDF would be nice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Best part about Action1 is how easily I can deploy Agents to any PC on my subnet, using the deployer on my PC (can even be better if I had a server to deploy from.)
Love the fact that first 100 agents are free, especially in todays world of 'everthing is a subscription per month.'
Honestly I only use Action1 as a secondary remote-access tool, as we have other tools for patch management and RMM; if I ever run my own IT department I would seriously consider the full Enterprise version of action1 on all domain PCs.
For now, I still appreciate being able to throw a remote agent on a machine not yet on our primary RMM tool, then use Action1 to 'bring that sheep into the fold!'
Thanks for being there and for offering a great product!

Really haven't experienced any downsides to this awesome tool, as I only use it for remote access, that works so quickly and smoothly in Chrome browser! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Action1 has changed the way that I patch, run scripts, and maintain Windows machines. Gone are the days of maintaining a finicky WSUS server or relying on GPO's to try and manage Windows PC security patching. Action1 makes both Windows security and third party software updates easy! Implementation was a breeze with great documentation provided by Action1. The Action1 RMM software is affordable, and a great value when comparing against other RMM tools that I have used in the past. In my experience support was quick to respond with any questions that came up along the way. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Action1 is newer than some of the other RMM's in the market, and they are actively developing the RMM tool to add additional features, the ease of use and functionality are preferred over some of the other RMM tools I have used in the past. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
