NinjaOne vs. PDQ
PDQ is a flexible NinjaOne alternative that offers cloud-based and on-prem solutions to help you inventory assets, deploy software, and patch Windows devices. In contrast, NinjaOne’s cloud-based tool helps managed service providers (MSPs) perform basic IT management functions across platforms through third-party integrations, making the platform more complex, pricier, and difficult to budget for.
