SecureLink is a platform for remote support in regulated industries. Enterprise software vendors use SecureLink to deliver remote support and services. Hospitals, banks, casinos and other regulated entities use SecureLink to authenticate, control and audit remote access for their vendors, business associates and other 3rd parties.
We have used TeamViewer and LogMeIn Rescue in the past. Both products offer the abilities to make remote connections, but LogMeIns monitoring capabilities are minimal and TeamViewer is costly for what you get...or more of what you don't get. Also, there have been some weird …
BeyondTrust has better support, account managers, an interface, better documentation for using their solution, and more support for rolling out their solution to endpoints (whether Mac or Windows). They also demonstrate a desire to resolve issues quickly rather than consuming …
BeyondTrust Remote Support (also known as Bomgar) stacks up excellently amongst other remote support tools because it is very robust and backed by a trusted vendor that offers a wide variety of other products. This means the possibility of a wide range of cross integrations. …
When we used Webex our customers often had issues because staff in medical offices don't always have easy access to browse the internet. We could send them an invitation but we would often go round and round with them. With BeyondTrust Remote [Support (Legacy)] we don't have …
Bomgar gives us the ability to extend our technical support out to users who are not on campus. This comes in handy when employees have issues with passwords or registration and they need a little assistance. And [BeyondTrust Remote Support (Legacy)] works across many platforms …
I also use Chrome remote desktop to connect to unattended digital signage, but that requires installing an agent on each target machine. Windows Remote Desktop works in some cases, but you cannot connect to a user's active desktop. Bomgar is the perfect support tool as it …
BeyondTrust Remote Support is one of the most feature rich remote support systems on the market. It is fast and efficient. It allows our large base of technicians to share our license pool so that we don't have to license every technician individually. I love the ability to …
Remote support is much more professional looking for the technician as well as the caller. Dameware however is better at accessing sleeping or un-attended devices.
We have been using Bomgar since their beginning as Network Solutions for well over 14 years. It continues to evolve and improve as a remote support platform, and we continue to get more value from it every year.
I think Bomgar is slightly less user-friendly than LogMeIn from the technician side. There are a bunch of icons on the Bomgar console but there is very little explanation of what they do. LogMeIn is a bit more user-friendly and often offers a smoother connection process with …
I can send a link via email to anyone worldwide to access their machine, company or privately owned - This capability is very limited to other support software in the market.
Ease of use, we are able to use Bomgar hand in hand with Ghost Solutions Suite to remotely access any computer that has the client on it. All the user has to do is click allow, and the session will be connected with the rep from IT effortlessly, and within less than 5 seconds.
One thing I like about Dameware is that you have access to a remote command prompt and that has been very handy at times. But Dameware is limited to on the network support, last time I used it. Bomgar can handle multiple platforms and operating systems. I cant email an …
I've used WebEx and a few other products like that, but never as an enterprise class solution. Securelink is one of those systems that just seems to make sense when you look at it. Honestly, I stopped my research after i saw this product.

Securelink seems to work better than LogMein for a large enterprise group. Our company has over 10,000 different connections and securelink manages them well.

I've been working with BeyondTrust's teams, with multiple customers and environments, and they consistently offer top-shelf support whether your environment has 250 users or 25000. Their staff is always patient and friendly in answering questions, working to resolve technical issues (should they occur), and they provide the information to help you understand how to do it yourself rather than perpetually relying on their technical consultants or engineers. They support Android, iOS, Linux, Windows, and macOS, providing instructions on how to interface with each system and make it as simple as possible to help your users regardless of what system they are working on.
Probably top most on my list is the support from Bomgar - they use their own product and take their support very seriously. They have always been available when I've needed help. They even set up a temporary host on their server when my IT crew, mistakenly plugged into the wrong port.
Talk about documenting a support session. We have the complete recording of what a tech will do to help a customer. There are no ambiguities as to what was done or not done. Not that any of our customers have complained about a support session - quite to the contrary all customers that give reviews after a support session rate the experience as either high or very high.
Best of all...I can help my mother in law with her computer without having to go to her house.
Intuitive. It's been so easy to use and set up. I can set up a vendor, they get the email on how to log in with a link to the site, and they can figure out what to do, for the most part.
I like the fact that they are still relatively small as an organization. I have strong communication channels with the support staff and they are extremely responsive to any questions I have.
I would like to see a voice chat capability added to the system.
I would like to have access to canned scripts through a web interface. This would be useful those limited times I am actually working on a pc in person.
I would like to be able to use files in the filestore for canned scripts rather than having to upload them a second time.
JAVA updates can sometimes break the securelink connection. Securelink needs to do a better job of updating the product to work with new JAVA updates.
Internet Explorer updates can sometimes break the securelink connection. Securelink needs to do a better job of updating the product to work with new versions of IE.
Bomgar has improved the support we have given as an ICT department and improved the ICT department reputation within the organisation. We have had no issues with Bomgar as a product and it works well. The team at Bomgar are also a pleasure to work with, they follow up with us to see how they can help us use more of the features of the system and really take time to get to know their users and how they use the product.
The only thing that keeps this from being a 10 is that I'm not the sole decision maker. If I was, it would be a 10. Who knows if Oracle is going to produce an overpriced option that does not work well that I'll be forced to move to
Just like any other remote support tool, BeyondTrust Remote Support is very easy to use, all you do is make sure the host machine has the bomgar agent active in it and then all you do is remote into the said host machine once that is out of the way you are able to do what you need to do in that host machine.
As far as uptime is concerned, Since Bomgar creates the Hardware and Software, they can make it the most reliable box in our datacenter, and they also have options for availability and redundancy that we didn't need to utilize, we have a manual fail-over process that we can invoke, but there are configurations that would allow for an automated failover as well.
There is no lag-time at all, no matter how many users we have on the box, it is always entirely dependant on the customers internet speed (as we have a very fast connection), that is the only issue I've EVER seen with Bomgar, no matter how many sessions we run the box is always up, always fast, always working.
We have been using this tool since March and it has enabled us to provide full support to our users while we are all working from home. Even after we return to the office it will allow us to provide better support to our users in other buildings. There are a number of features we haven't yet used, but it is good to know that we have a reliable tool to use to help us provide quality support.
The employees at Securelink have always been responsive and seem to be invested in the success of my company. They truly understand what their product means to us so if there is a problem, they are always willing to help. In the rare event that something is found on their end, they will be proactive and reach out to someone to help and get something on calendar for a fix
we didn't have in-person training because their online training was so overwhelmingly well done. Start by looking at the docs: http://www.bomgar.com/docs/content/index.htm if that alone doesn't answer all your questions, there will be a window that pops up asking if you would like to chat with a sales representative, or a support engineer. Either of them can answer all of your questions as easily as if they were standing there with you, or talking to you on the phone, it is truly the power of Bomgar!
Since we have installed and been running Bomgar software for quite some time now, we have taken the opportunity to attend various web trainings, and they are always very prompt, informative and open to questions/discussions. We appreciate the work that Bomgar does to keep their customer community informed of new features and discussions of further product developments.
It was easy to get going. You have to pick your features to enable disable and then configure any customizations for the enabled features. It could not be easier to get started. The number of options can be a bit overwhelming at first
We have used TeamViewer and LogMeIn Rescue in the past. Both products offer the abilities to make remote connections, but LogMeIns monitoring capabilities are minimal and TeamViewer is costly for what you get...or more of what you don't get. Also, there have been some weird cybersecurity malware detections on team viewer lately that was causing concern

Since the Bomgar Box is BOTH hardware and software, it can be purchased in any capacity deemed necessary, so scalability isn't an issue, Bomgar has the experience necessary to create a design that can support as many customer and agent sessions as you can throw at it. We have never had any issues with the Bomgar box and licenses that we have installed.
We've used Bomgar for 10 years. Our company was probably too small when we started using it but over the years we have grown. As our team has gotten bigger we rely more heavily on bomgar and it's become an indispensable tool.
It saves us a tremendous amount of time / cost over having to go onsite as any remote screen sharing tool will do.
The ability to easily and security manage remote access to hundreds of computers over dozens of different companies is a huge benefit to our company.
