### "ACP is a good solid product" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *4 February 2026* | Government Administration | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The ease of use and how well that it is supported.  We have taken all of our applications that required admin access and are using ACP.  Users no longer have admin access\!
> 
> **Cons**: There are very few times that the agent has to be reinstalled.  When this happens we have to get a hold of the user to fix the issue.  Again, it does not happen often
> 
> Overall we are very happy\!  It is not the only application that we own from ManageEngine.  Support has been great\!
