Our take
NinjaOne is an IT endpoint management platform that offers comprehensive solutions for managing and securing endpoints in an organisation's IT infrastructure.
The platform helps enhance security measures and ensure optimal performance across various endpoints through a variety of products from vulnerability patch management to cloud backups for multi-tenants. It is also able to protect users logging into IT systems remotely, making it a valuable option to the large roster of companies embracing remote work.
Since founding in 2013, NinjaOne has grown both its team and customer base substantially, and now serves the like of NVIDIA, Nissan and HelloFresh. A influx of funding has also allowed the company to hyper-focus on its customer support, especially in remote form, and continue to develop its products and automations.
