    "An amazing IT automation tool"

    Posted 06/05/2020

    Pros: - The interface is quite intuitive and can be used to automate most of the management tasks that MSPs have.

    Cons: - The patch management system needs to be fixed and standardized, it is very difficult to deal with updates and changes over and over again.

    Overall: If your company has a lot of individual devices/inventory to keep track of, SolarWinds N-central can help you achieve that easily.
