What is the main difference between Level and N-able?

N-able offers multiple RMM and remote-management products in a broader portfolio. Level provides one focused cloud RMM with real-time monitoring, live automation output, patching, and browser remote.

Can I evaluate Level before switching from N-able?

Yes. Install Level on a pilot group and compare the daily monitoring, automation, patching, and remote workflows your team uses. 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.

Why doesn't Level include ticketing or a PSA?

Because we're building an RMM, not an everything platform. Level focuses on monitoring, automation, patching, remote access, and endpoint management, then integrates with the business systems you already use.

Live device-and-step logs show technicians what each automation is doing.
Level remote control opens in the browser without a separate technician viewer.
Level publishes a $2 per-device rate and keeps the first 10 devices free.

What Level users say.

“Like others have said, our team is also really enjoying Level. It’s very refreshing to have a super modern and sleek interface, great Linux support, and a development team that actually listens to feedback. It’s also really exciting to see the new features roll out basically every month.”

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.”

RMM depth shows up in the work.

Monitor, automate, patch, and remote across the fleet.

Level keeps monitoring, automations, patching, and browser remote connected to the same managed-device context.
Automations can start when a tag is applied, a device enrolls, a monitor fires, or a schedule arrives. The run view streams output for each device while the workflow is still running.
Remote sessions open in the browser on Windows, macOS, and Linux without a separate technician viewer.
Patch workflows cover Windows, macOS, and Linux, including WinGet, Homebrew, Apt, Yum or DNF, Pacman, Snap, and Flatpak.

One public rate, or a product quote.

Public $2 pricing. First 10 free. N-able pricing is quoted.

Expand by group.
Move clients or sites in phases after each Level workflow is proven.

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.
