NinjaOne is an endpoint management platform with remote access, monitoring, patching and automation, priced per endpoint by quote. The page gives about $3.75 per endpoint a month at 50 or fewer, falling to $1.50 at 10,000.

That's roughly $187 a month for a 50-device office, and full pricing isn't published. - **Free plan and trial: C.** A 14-day free trial, with no free plan after it. The pages read don't say whether a card is needed. - **Features: B.** Remote access, monitoring, patching, automation, auto-remediation, Katana AI and a self-service portal with a mobile app. Nothing in the listing is missing for managing devices. - **Ease of use: C.** No rating on record.

That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one. That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 16 of the 35 other remote desktop apps grade higher. It costs $18 a year. - You could not: A fast, secure link to another computer through any network. - You could not: Connections to other products, each kept working as those products change. - You could not: Apps for macOS, Windows and Linux that stay in step with each other. - You could not: AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself. - You could not: The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.
