Addigy
Product Summary
Addigy is a mobile device management console especially created for Apple devices. It features a full-feature management platform that is specifically made to manage, monitor, and secure iOS, macOS, iPadOS, tvOS-ran devices in real time.
Use Cases
- Support:
Addigy users recognize the platform’s prioritization of delivering good customer support. The platform also has a dedicated community that offers help and can be a source of critical information about its features and services. - Ease of use:
Some users mentioned that Addigy is straightforward to deploy. Its ease of use helps users implement that platform quickly, specifically, those who don’t have that much experience in running a mobile device management software. - Single-login management:
Addigy allows users to manage multiple clients from one login, simplifying the process of applying configurations and policies to all of their clients from a single interface.
Shortcomings
- User interface:
There are users who have raised concerns about Addigy’s user interface. The interface makes some processes a little challenging, such as moving devices between policies. - Limited to Apple:
The platform only supports Apple devices. This can be limiting to MSPs and IT administrators with endpoints on operating systems. - Policy management:
Some users report difficulty understanding how to create and manage policies within Addigy. This affects workflow, requiring extra time to implement policies effectively.
N-able N-central
Product Summary
N-central is an RMM platform available in both on-premises and hosted deployment models. N-central has been in the market for years and carries the feature breadth you’d expect from a mature platform, along with the complexity that often comes with it.
Use Cases
- RMM: N-central provides remote monitoring and management for endpoint devices, with alert-based monitoring and scripted automation for routine IT tasks.
- Patch Management: N-central supports patching for Windows, MacOS, and Linux devices.
- IT Automation: N-central is used to automate repetitive tasks through their automation manager with a variety of options for scripting, scheduling, and triggering.
Shortcomings
- Inconsistent patch management: Users on G2 describe patching results as ‘hit or miss’, a problem that goes beyond inconvenience. For MSPs, a missed patch on a client endpoint isn’t a minor gap; it’s an exposure event. Patching features available on Windows weren’t always available on Mac or Linux, leaving cross-platform environments with uneven coverage.
- Longer time to value: Across G2, Capterra, and Gartner Peer Insights, users consistently flag the learning curve as a real barrier. Not just for new hires, but for experienced teams. When a platform requires significant ramp time before it’s useful, you’re paying for capability you can’t yet use.
- Documentation and Knowledge Base: Integrations with documentation platforms exist, but there is no built-in support for documentation, leaving information scattered across portals, and poorly linked with devices, users, and organizations.
