Action1 vs. RemoteCall PC/Mobile/Visual

For small teams having to deal with significant ammount of devices, I can't express how useful Action1 is. With very small effort, you can easily keep track of your devices, keep them up to date, deploy new software to your users, create recurring reports/alerts and so on. Initially, the 100 endpoints for free was also a nice touch. Now, even better since they increased to 200. For the forseeable future, I have not to worry about costs and still can't believe it's a full solution for free, not those freeware stuff where what you really desire is behind a cost.

There was an engineer call due to an emergency failure at the customer. It took an hour for the engineer to move and get to the site. So, using RemoteCall, I immediately supported the problem while moving. The customer's problems were resolved before arriving on-site, and the customer was satisfied thanks to the quick handling and response. Without RemoteCall, the golden hour would have been missed.

• Provide a friendly and easy-to-use interface to manage all my endpoints
• Provide automated patch management that can be placed on a schedule. Patch approval is easy and intuitive
• Scan for available software updates and readily report critical updates
• Uploading and installing software via the Action1 console is very easy to use
• The app deployment works very well and fast

• low cost.
• fast access.
• Remote mobile service.

• Lots of times Action1 will identify a program that needs to be patched, but then not really have a path laid out to get that done...so they just remain as they are, but are tagged as such.
• Really wants to replace the windows update mechanism. Resists (or did at least) you if you try to keep updates as they are and update occasionally from Action1
• Could develop the scripts section a bit more, looked pretty sparse last time I checked it out.

• They need to invest more in advertising.
• Fewer users than competitors.

Agent deployment is simple (and silent) - once that is done, you're good to go. Everything is simple, centralized and very easy to work with. There isn't one aspect of this platform that requires crawling over forums and Google, it just works!

After looking at different solutions, Action1 [Cloud Remote Monitoring and Management Solution] was the perfect fit for us that delivered all of the features we wanted without being as costly as some of the others alternatives we've looked at. There was no minimum endpoint count and they even offer up to 50 endpoints for free, which is really great for a small organization like us to help us lower our starting costs and still allows us to grow at our pace without having to commit to a defined amount of endpoints to start.

RemoteCall and TeamViewer are both good products. However, technical support for TeamViewer is difficult. When a problem occurred, it did not respond immediately and took a long time and it took too much time and money to customize it for the company. On the other hand, RemoteCall provided various services at a low cost. In particular, it was customized to satisfy 100% of our requirements with a demanding customer.RemoteCall is the best value for money.
