## Reviews

### "Perfect for small businesses" — 5.0/5

> **Chris** | *6 January 2025* | Financial Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The ease of setting Action1 up. It's a breeze. The peace of mind it provides for machines that have not checked in for weeks is reassuring. The RMM functionality just works. And the Dashboard gives me the insight into my organisation as a whole in a clear way.
> 
> **Cons**: If I had to pick something it would be nice to be able to install programs per user as well as per machine. Also maybe the ability to install Windows updates by KB. It would be nice if the dashboard showed the number of original vulnerabilities my organisation had compared to how many it has dropped to. Eg 80/5000 vulnerabilities thanks to Action1\!
> 
> Action1 is simple to deploy via GPO, endpoints can be managed via groups and split between organisations on whatever speed of an update channel I wish. I love the dashboard showing how protected my organisation is.

### "Indispensable Tool" — 5.0/5

> **Adam** | *1 October 2025* | Primary/Secondary Education | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Very easy to setup, both with the agent deployment and with being able to dynamically group endpoints.&#10;&#10;We've found the remote support tools indispensable and being able to run PowerShell scripts against endpoints remotely has greatly improved our response to issues. No more running around or remoting around to get simple fixes applied, just send out a script automation.&#10;&#10;Update approval has streamlined the deployment of windows and software updates across the network giving visibility into where those updates are not applying correctly.
> 
> **Cons**: It feels like with the wealth of information it gives that some more critical vulnerabilities might get missed amongst the back log. For example one laptop has come out of a cupboard and tripped 500+ vulnerabilities which then hides the ones that work the other way and effect 500+ computers.
> 
> Very positive. Our account manager has worked with us and been very helpful making sure we find the bits of the product we need.

### "Amazing free patch management and software/script deployment\! Don't turn this one down." — 5.0/5

> **Mark** | *20 August 2025* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It is a reliable free tool (up to 200 devices) for patch management, software deployment and script deployment. It has tools to remotely access devices too. Easy to use, clear interface and doesn't cost a penny for sub 200 users. Setup is really easy too.
> 
> **Cons**: Nothing, this is a great product throughout. If I was being fussy I'd say some people might think the interface is a little bland.
> 
> I've been using Action 1 for over a year and I can't speak highly enough of this tool. I've previously used WSUS, GoTo Resolve and SuperOps and Action 1 is simpler, more reliable and provides a progress status (unlike lots of the others where you deploy an update and only know how it's gone when you've left it for two days to be sure, then find it hasn't deployed etc.). The ability to deploy software and create custom software deployments is great. There is a feature to upload the msi, so it will deploy over the internet and doesn't rely on a network or connected cloud storage such as onedrive etc.  We have an in-house msi package and we can release a new version which is immediately identified as an update alongside the standard windows updates and application updates. I prefer our other remoting in tools, but action 1 having the ability to remote in has been a life-saver on more than one occasion when other methods have failed. It also links in to Active Directory so will auto deploy agents making it really slick. Love this tool, can't fault it.

### "Simple and reliable tool for endpoint management" — 5.0/5

> **Basel** | *22 June 2026* | Machinery | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: What I liked most about Action1 is how simple it makes remote device management, patching, and monitoring. It is easy to see which endpoints need attention, push updates, run scripts, and check device status without having to physically touch each machine. The dashboard is straightforward, and it gives IT a practical way to stay on top of security updates and system health.
> 
> **Cons**: What I liked least about Action1 is that some areas could use a bit more depth and polish, especially around reporting and advanced automation. It handles the main tasks well, but certain workflows can take extra setup or manual checking depending on what you are trying to do. It is good overall, but there is room for more customization.
> 
> Overall, my experience with Action1 has been positive. It is a reliable tool for remote monitoring, patch management, and endpoint management. It helps save time by making it easier to manage multiple devices from one place, especially for updates, scripts, and troubleshooting. It is not overly complicated, which is a big advantage, and it works well for day-to-day IT management.

### "Nothing comes close to Action1" — 5.0/5

> **Stephen** | *9 September 2025* | Utilities | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Does exactly what it promises. Action1 makes patch management and software deployment simple and effortless. You cant beat 'free' for under 200 devices. Super simple to get going and configure.
> 
> **Cons**: Its free. Sounds silly, but there are times you need support which isnt included in the free licence. I would be willing to pay money to have support when needed.
> 
> I would (and have) recommend this to anyone. Nothing compares. Third party vulnerability scans have proved this is working 100%
