Syncro alternative for MSPs that want unlimited RMM endpoints

Both platforms remove per-endpoint RMM charges, but they are not equivalent products. Syncro combines mature RMM, PSA, billing, and broader platform support. Nizlo is an earlier-stage, Windows-first RMM with a lower disclosed small-team entry price.

The honest short version

Syncro is the stronger shortlist choice when an MSP wants its RMM, ticketing, PSA, billing, payments, integrations, and broader device coverage in one established platform. Nizlo does not claim that breadth. Its narrower case is a small Windows-first team that already handles the surrounding business workflow elsewhere and wants to test flat, unlimited-endpoint RMM economics.

Pricing unit

Syncro: Per technician; managed endpoints are unlimited under every MSP plan.

Nizlo: Flat plan includes one technician and unlimited RMM endpoints; each additional technician is $15/month.

Public MSP pricing

Syncro: Core is $129/user/month annually or $159 monthly. Team is $179/user/month annually or $209 monthly.

Nizlo: $59/month Core, $79/month Scale, or $99/month Suite.

Trial

Syncro: 14 days without a credit card; Syncro says the trial has full platform access without feature limitations.

Nizlo: 14 days without a credit card.

RMM and PSA

Syncro: Full RMM and PSA in both MSP plans, including estimates, invoicing, payments, and recurring billing automation.

Nizlo: Windows-first RMM with a ticketing foundation; no claim of full PSA or billing parity.

Endpoint platforms

Syncro: Windows, macOS, and Linux agents, with capability differences documented by operating system; network-device monitoring is also supported.

Nizlo: Windows x64 generally available; macOS packaging is still in acceptance and Linux is planned.

Microsoft 365

Syncro: The Team plan adds Syncro's full Microsoft 365 security and identity-management suite.

Nizlo: No claim of an equivalent Microsoft 365 management suite.

Syncro is the stronger fit when

You need an integrated MSP operating system

  • full PSA, help desk, estimates, invoicing, payments, and recurring billing are immediate requirements
  • Windows, macOS, Linux, or network-device operations are needed today
  • Microsoft 365 security and identity workflows belong in the same platform
  • an established support, integration, and onboarding ecosystem matters more than the lowest entry price

Nizlo may be worth testing when

Your immediate scope is Windows-first RMM

  • PSA and billing are already handled elsewhere or are not currently required
  • a small team wants unlimited RMM endpoints and a lower disclosed entry price
  • additional technician access at $15/month fits the team structure
  • a controlled early-product pilot and direct product influence are acceptable

Run the same pilot in both products

Begin with authorized lab or noncritical systems. Define the expected outcome, preserve evidence, and include the business workflows that could materially change complete operating cost.

Test 1Install on the same small set of authorized Windows endpoints and reconcile identity, customer assignment, inventory, and duplicate handling.
Test 2Trigger identical service, disk, and resource conditions; compare detection, routing, deduplication, recovery, and technician effort.
Test 3Deploy one controlled Windows patch policy and compare approval, scheduling, reboot control, exceptions, and failure evidence.
Test 4Run the same harmless PowerShell task and compare targeting, approval, output, audit history, cancellation, and offline behavior.
Test 5Open an authorized support session and compare role boundaries, consent, revocation, unattended access, and session evidence.
Test 6Complete an alert-to-ticket workflow and compare customer context, ownership, time entry, escalation, closure, and reporting.
Test 7For Syncro, test a quote-to-invoice-to-payment workflow and verify accounting, tax, and recurring-billing behavior before relying on it.
Test 8Remove the agent, revoke the device identity, disable a technician, and prove access and queued work no longer succeed.
