## Reviews

### "N-Central -  linux" — 5.0/5

> **Willem** | *5 December 2025* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: They have introduced patching on Linux. There is now vulnerability scanning on mac. And Apple File Vault as i can read..not used it yet
> 
> **Cons**: At the moment, i really don't use it enough to have any negative perspective on it. It works a tad complex on setup, maybe
> 
> The team seems very happy with it.I am excited about the Mac and Linux additions as that is great for my current clients

### "Feedback on N‑Central Experience" — 4.0/5

> **Ricardo** | *8 May 2026* | Computer & Network Security | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Overall, it is an excellent work tool. I particularly use the Take Control option very often, and it works like a Swiss watch\!&#10;The ability to open a support case and instantly start a chat with an agent is outstanding. It truly sets you apart from other technology companies. Please keep this focus—great support often matters even more than a great product and you have both of them.
> 
> **Cons**: I believe generating reports and alerts should be a bit simpler, more predefined reports would be a great thing.
> 
> My overall experience is very positive. We will continue using N‑Central for a long time, it is our first support tool.

### "Missing NAble at my new job" — 5.0/5

> **Brandon** | *29 November 2025* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Automatic Elevated CMD access. Otherwise initial review remains the same as it was previously reported
> 
> **Cons**: No longer use at my new iob. Otherwise my initial thoughts still remain the same as previously reported
> 
> I no longer work at the place that used this. Actually miss it over ScreenCnnect. Wish we used this at my new employer

### "N-central was easy to quickly setup and deploy for our company" — 4.0/5

> **Bill** | *28 April 2026* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: We liked the user interface and management processes the most about deploying n-central.  The user interface is very streamlined and helps greatly for navigation between clients.
> 
> **Cons**: The only downside we've had at this time is sometimes getting customer support on the phone, we'd really like it if it were a more consistent experience about who speak with on the phone when issues come up.
> 
> Our overall experience with N-central has been very good and we'd recommend it to others companies similar to our who are looking for alternatives to Kaseya and Connectwise like we were when we started looking for a new RMM partner.

### "All-in-one tool" — 5.0/5

> **Antonio** | *11 May 2026* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like that you can have all the necessary capabilities in one platform, the implementation, administration and support are easy and intuitive.
> 
> **Cons**: Report Management needs improvements, including customization, export, and better integration with APIs.
> 
> Great experience, since the very beginning the support from vendor was very good, it changed a lot the way that we were operating
