As long as the managed devices have internet connectivity, it "just works". It handles a significant amount of other non-microsoft products, and it an excellent solution to keep your systems up to date. > > **Cons**: The only "Con" I can think of is something that they VERY CLEARLY say was "just included because" but it isn't their focus. It is the general feature set of the Remote Control. Could use a "show all monitors" feature, but... Meh. > > Fantastic. We are really looking forward to scaling up with them, as they have proven to be a quality product that doesn't try to be too much, and is priced very reasonably. ----- ### "Action1 greatly simplify our operations" — 5.0/5 > **Thierry** | *July 1, 2025* | Transportation/Trucking/Railroad | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Able to automate the removal of unwanted software, and to install Windows update in a much simpler manner than with WSUS. > > **Cons**: Sometime Windows udpates failed to install, it seem to be specific to certain machines, we are in the process of troubleshooting if the problem is with Action1 or the computers. > > Action1 allow us to have an overview of the software and windows update installed on workstations and servers in our environment. We really like it. ----- ### "Action 1 - would recommend" — 5.0/5 > **Kevin** | *June 30, 2025* | Financial Services Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Really easy to understand and use. We were up and running in no time. Agent setup was a breeze. It took no time for the agents to communicate with the portal and provide us with valuable info about our systems. > > **Cons**: This is going to be hard to answer as we're fairly new to the platform. As of now, we've been using for a couple of months, and I haven't found a con yet. > > We were looking for a way to manage system updates (including 3rd party) and assist us in providing support for our remote team. Action 1 has been great for our use case. ----- ### "Excellent Patching Tools" — 5.0/5 > **Alfred** | *March 19, 2026* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: It is incredibly powerful and versatile, meeting almost all of our requirements. Remarkably, it still offers full functionality for up to 200 endpoints at no cost. > > **Cons**: Using on MacOS still not so directly. The remote tools still not improve so far, remote access still needs other tools help. > > Action1 remains as effective as ever. I haven't found another free patching tool (supporting up to 200 endpoints) that can compete with its current features and reliability. ----- ### "My favourite patch management software" — 5.0/5 > **Mihai** | *December 20, 2024* | Mechanical or Industrial Engineering | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Ease of use and logically designed UI, evergrowing patched software > > **Cons**: Difficulty running PS scripts on remopte endpoints > > Little over 6 months, I find it better than PDQ offering I am also using. Easy to deploy software updates and patches to endpoints regardless of location. Being free for \<100 endpoints certainly halps small businesses. ----- Page: 1 / 11\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.ca/software/180609/action1-rmm?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.ca/software/180609/action1-rmm) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | ja | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
