Simplifies Network Troubleshooting Effortlessly
What do you like best about the product?
I like the simple UI of Nexthink and I love the fact that I can check device details of users without getting into their systems. The initial setup was so easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
I haven't faced anything which could be improved but we can get options to change system settings directly of users' laptops without even getting to their system. It would be more helpful. As now, we can only check those details and to make changes, we need to go to the user's system via remote access.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Nexthink for checking network performance, diagnosing issues like slow internet and app problems, and it helps me identify exact user issues to resolve tickets efficiently.

Daily diagnostics have shortened resolution times and provide detailed user issue insights
What is our primary use case?
My main use case for Nexthink is to resolve and analyze problems, identify devices, identify running applications, and much more.
A specific example of how I have used Nexthink to analyze problems and identify devices is when a system issue occurs on a user's system and a user has logged a complaint. I connect with the user, take their hostname, input it into Nexthink, and trigger Amplifier. Once Amplifier runs, it provides me with complete diagnostic results.
I use Nexthink daily to identify issues and determine the next course of action, primarily to resolve fixes including updates or configuration issues that can be resolved immediately.
What is most valuable?
The best features Nexthink offers include Amplifier, which provides a detailed view in the form of a report.
What I appreciate most about Amplifier or the detailed reports it provides is that it helps me see complete data and analysis reports from whatever Amplifier I am running or executing on the user system, and that gives me the results. This is the best feature I find very valuable.
Initially, resolution used to take more than two to three days, but after using Nexthink, it has been immensely reduced, and with an immediate click, it has helped resolve the issue in a single action. This is a very powerful transition that has occurred due to Nexthink.
What needs improvement?
Nexthink can be improved based on how we choose to take it forward upon the requirement, which does depend on the project and project complexity. If a project requires complex analysis, we need to program Nexthink accordingly.
An additional improvement I would like to suggest is that if we have more scope for analysis or in terms of running Amplifier that currently tells me only a few reports, I would like it to bring more reports and a more detailed view, which will help us analyze the next course of complex issues to be resolved.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using Nexthink for more than six months.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
Nexthink is stable in my experience.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
Nexthink can scale up easily and handles growth well when my organization adds more users or devices.
How are customer service and support?
The customer support is very good.
How was the initial setup?
It was very easy for my team to learn and adopt Nexthink because it is very user-friendly.
What other advice do I have?
I would like to add that the features have a continuous improvement aspect, so anything that we find needs to be added, we implement accordingly, conduct testing, and upon that, we bring that implementation into production.
Nexthink is helping to reduce the resolution time, which positively impacts us by receiving very good feedback from clients.
I believe Nexthink has strong security features, and it also depends on how the administrator has configured it to capture data. I think it is safe and secure, particularly since the organization is already secured in terms of implementing configurations.
I find the reporting and analytics capabilities in Nexthink not really detailed, but they provide what is actually required. They do not always meet our exact expectations, but they are vital enough.
The performance and speed of Nexthink when running analyses or reports are medium; it is not really fast, but it is fast enough compared to human interaction in resolving issues.
I would describe the user interface and overall user experience with Nexthink as friendly.
The level of documentation and resources available for Nexthink is satisfactory; I have gone through tutorials up to an intermediate level and am progressing toward the advanced level.
I will definitely recommend Nexthink to others looking into using it.
Complete IT Visibility and Proactive DEX Insights with Nexthink
What do you like best about the product?
Nexthink is a Digital Employee Experience (DEX) tool used by enterprises to monitor, analyze, and improve employees’ IT experience across devices, apps, and the network.
It provides complete visibility into the IT environment, helps with proactive issue detection and resolution, and supports automation and self-healing to reduce recurring problems. It also offers a Digital Employee Experience (DEX) score to help track and understand the overall employee IT experience.
What do you dislike about the product?
High cost. The implementation can be complex, and there’s a steep learning curve to get up to speed. In some cases, I’ve noticed performance overhead as well. I also have privacy and compliance concerns, and integration can be challenging depending on the existing setup.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
1. Lack of visibility into end-user issues
Problem:
IT teams often don’t know what users are actually experiencing (slow laptop, app crashes, VPN issues) unless someone raises a ticket.
What Nexthink does:
It provides real-time monitoring across devices, applications, and the network, and it surfaces data that reflects the real end-user experience.
Benefit to you:
You’re no longer working blindly. Instead, you can spot issues earlier and be proactive rather than purely reactive.
2. Too many IT support tickets
Problem:
Support teams get overloaded with repetitive, recurring issues (slow systems, login delays, Teams issues), which takes time away from more important work.
What Nexthink does:
It helps detect patterns across users and can automate fixes through self-healing scripts.
Benefit to you:
This can lead to a significant reduction in ticket volume and free up more time for strategic work.
Campaigns and workflows have reduced support contacts and empower users to self-troubleshoot
What is our primary use case?
My main use case for Nexthink is using Windows Hello for Business, which helps our users receive the Windows Hello notification on their system so that they can set up their PIN.
A specific example of how I use Nexthink with Windows Hello for Business is through a campaign that runs on users' systems and lets them know they need to set up a PIN to log in easily during their daily login.
How has it helped my organization?
Nexthink has positively impacted my organization by helping our service desk in many different ways. We used to receive numerous calls, but now, since we have the API and self-troubleshooting available in the catalog or portal, users can address common issues with Microsoft Teams or Microsoft Outlook, which reduces customer contact for our organization.
We used to receive around 22,000 customer contacts in a month last year, which has reduced to 14,000 in a month currently.
What is most valuable?
The best features that Nexthink offers are the campaign and the workflow within our environment, which helps users easily replace their systems and self-troubleshoot without reaching out to any IT service desk.
The campaign and workflow features help users self-troubleshoot by reminding them when they are using a retired machine and informing them that the life cycle of this machine has expired, allowing them to either continue using it for the next month or raise a request for a replacement machine, which benefits both the user and the company in complying with asset data.
I appreciate the ability to check their life cycle date via Nexthink on a monthly basis, as we roll out some kind of campaign for them.
What needs improvement?
Nexthink is solid, but I see that the upcoming updates include Spark, which will help our company easily gather data regarding user responses to our campaigns.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using Nexthink for more than one and a half years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
Nexthink is stable in my experience.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
Nexthink's scalability is good.
How are customer service and support?
The customer support is very easy to contact, and they respond instantly whenever we have issues with remote actions or workflows.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
We did not use any solution before Nexthink; this is the first time we are using it.
How was the initial setup?
I am not really aware of the pricing, but I can say that it is very easy to set up the extension in our browser, allowing us to troubleshoot from there.
What was our ROI?
Nexthink has helped with license reclamation use cases, where many software applications are already installed on user machines that our vendor pays for, and rolling out the campaign has allowed us to identify unnecessary software and remove those licenses, saving costs.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
Prior to choosing Nexthink, we evaluated SysTrack, but it did not help in service desk operations, which is why we moved to Nexthink.
What other advice do I have?
I would advise others looking into using Nexthink to create use cases as much as possible, as this helps the vendor improve their business operations and run smoothly.
I give this product a rating of 10 out of 10.
Remote control has streamlined daily ticket handling and saves significant support time
What is our primary use case?
My main use case for Nexthink is access remote control. I use Nexthink for remote control in my day-to-day work by searching about the user ID, finding their desktop, and sending the request to remote their access.
How has it helped my organization?
Nexthink has impacted my organization very positively. It is faster to deal with tickets.
What is most valuable?
The best features Nexthink offers are archiving and fixing issues through remote control. The archiving feature helps because it has fixed the issue remotely.
What needs improvement?
Nexthink can be improved by offering more solutions. Everything appears to be there regarding the needed improvements.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using Nexthink for around one year.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
Nexthink's scalability is good.
How are customer service and support?
The customer support is very good.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
I did not previously use a different solution.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
Before choosing Nexthink, I did not evaluate other options.
What other advice do I have?
My advice for others looking into using Nexthink is that they should use it to make their work faster. Nexthink saves a lot of time. I would rate this product a 9 out of 10.

Exceptional End-User Insights and Growing AI Value
What do you like best about the product?
My team is highly focused on the end user experience from a sentiment lens. I love the visibility that Nexthink brings to the end user experience. The increasing AI capabilities are adding value to the sentiment data as well.
What do you dislike about the product?
I find some of the OOB reporting capabilities lacking for end users who are not skilled in coding or running queries in Nexthink; as a "non-technical" user, I'd like the ability to adjust reporting filters on sentiment data, comments, etc. as needed.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Nexthink allows my organization to get a view into our end users experience with technology, not just through the lens of performance of the technology but also (and I think just as importantly) through the lens of their sentiment about the technology provided to them. This allows us to understand pain points and sets us up to look for strategic opportunities to solve for end user experience, vs. being reactive to issues that arise in the environment.
