## Reviews

### "skycore swis AGs review on Action1" — 5.0/5

> **Matthias** | *2 May 2023* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Patchmanagement, Automation and ease of use had the most impact to our business and our processes.
> 
> **Cons**: It might not offer as extensive functionality as some of its competitors. Nevertheless, this also makes it lean, fast and easy to use.
> 
> AMAZING experience from first contact through trial to purchase. Outstanding support\! They are clearly listening to customer feedback and implement feature requests in short period of time.

### "Patch Management that honestly works" — 5.0/5

> **Jeremy** | *27 March 2025* | Mechanical or Industrial Engineering | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It honestly works. I've used so many systems in the past (Syncro, DattoRMM, ConnectWise Automate, NinjaRMM/One, PDQ Deploy, Intune) and it beats all of them out of the water. I can depend on AND see it perform updates when they're supposed to. It's absolutely amazing how well their system works.&#10;&#10;\[To be fully transparent, I use this product for free (at the time of review, your first 200 devices are free) and may receive a small monetary gift for this review. However, my opinions are entirely my own and were not influenced by the pricing or the gift.\]
> 
> **Cons**: Not enough built-in software packages and does not track update history per-device. Also, not able to easily report on vulnerabilities (e.g., being able to report on \# of vulnerabilities per software or software+version)
> 
> Overall... Man this has changed my work life. Patch management was always had a "fog of war" to it. Never knew if it was working and always saw signs of it not working... Reporting was horrendous on most products. Action1 has been a complete 180 from the others and I feel like I can honestly depend on my patch management for the first time in ever.

### "Great product." — 5.0/5

> **Heiko** | *19 September 2024* | Legal Services | Recommendation rating: 3.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Action1 has a great service, and allows small business to comply with IT security regulations for free.
> 
> **Cons**: There is nothing that is not perfect with the service.
> 
> Perfect, and easy to use, and a very smart solution.

### "Incredible platform" — 5.0/5

> **Mack** | *30 June 2025* | Telecommunications | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The cost, being under 200 units and the product being free and not just a gutted and limited version but a full blown service is truly amazing.
> 
> **Cons**: I have not found one yet\! So far everything that the platform advertises is available and ready to use. No hidden trials or any nonsense like that.
> 
> We are a very small telephone Co-op with a very small IT staff. Trying to keep everything patched to current levels and making sure programs do not have huge security issues was overwhelming. Action1 made it very simple and quick to get our systems up to date\!

### "Great tool that should be in EVERY toolbox" — 5.0/5

> **Adam** | *9 September 2025* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Ease; from initial setup to deployment, it is so easy.  The process of updates is also incredible.  It is a wonderful tool and I literally had my first node updating within 10 minutes of account registration.
> 
> **Cons**: The remote desktop can be a little laggy; however, Action1 never purports to being an RMM.  I have also found that this feature is quite helpful with some specific instances.  I have true hope that one day Action1 will also be my RMM.
> 
> Excellent, thorough, confidence-building ease of use, I love it.  It even allows for a quick start with the first 200 endpoints so you can truly test the product and decide on your own.
