What is the main difference between Level and Action1?

Action1 centers its endpoint-management workflow on patching. Level is a daily RMM built around real-time monitoring, event-driven automation, patching, and browser remote across Windows, macOS, and Linux.

Can I evaluate Level before switching from Action1?

Yes. Install Level on a subset of devices and compare monitors, automations, patches, and remote sessions in your own environment. Accounts managing up to 10 Level devices stay free with no time limit.

Does Level support Windows, macOS, and Linux?

Yes. Level supports core RMM workflows across Windows, macOS, and Linux, including x86-64 and ARM64 environments. Feature coverage varies by operating system.

Level vs Action1 — compare daily RMM and patching workflows

Key takeaways.

The differences that matter most.

Level connects real-time monitoring, patching, scripting, automation, and remote support in one RMM workflow.
A monitor, device event, tag, group change, schedule, or API event can start a Level automation.
Technicians can follow live device-and-step output while a Level automation runs.
Level opens remote control and background tools from the same device record, without a separate viewer.
Level manages Windows, macOS, and Linux fleets, including native Apple silicon and Linux ARM64.

What Level users say.

Real-time automation and patching in practice.

Customer testimonial, Rogers State University

“We’ve been using Level for over a year and have been impressed with our results. Our patching routines are more successful than they have been with past products that we have used. We have been especially pleased that Level has continuously improved the product and added features for a reasonable price.”

Customer testimonial, Exisor

“Level has brought us the multi-OS management software we need at a reasonable price. Level provides remote control, behind-the-glass support, patching, alerting, and scripting in a compact deployable agent. Its modern UI makes it easy to work with systems individually and in bulk. Definitely a key piece in our management stack.”

Why doesn't Level chase software review awards?

Review volume can reflect campaigns and incentives. We would rather put that money into the product. If Level earns a review, post it honestly. No gift card.
