ISL Online's pricing model considers the number of licenses purchased, which determines the maximum number of concurrent users within the organization. A concurrent user is defined as anyone running one or more sessions simultaneously from any device. There are no restrictions on the number of ISL Light users within a company or the remote devices managed.
For example, with three licenses, an unlimited number of people in a company can use ISL Light and can access an unlimited number of remote devices, but only three users can use it concurrently. When one of these three users ends their session, a fourth user can begin their session, and so on.

Chose LogMeIn Central by GoTo
LogMeIn Central by GoTo generally outperforms TeamViewer and ConnectWise ScreenConnect in several key areas. While both alternatives have their merits, they come with drawbacks such as higher costs and performance issues over slow connections. A significant differentiator for …
LogMeIn Central by GoTo is better than Team Viewer in it's central management portal and it's remote installation by end users without needing to pass any kind of login or access codes back and forth to gain remote access. Its remote control is much better than Splashtop in that …
We use both LogMeIn Central by GoTo and a true RMM product. LogMeIn Central by GoTo has its role as an easier method to remotely access selected oft-used machines, whereas the RMM product is much, much more cost effective to rollout to entire infrastructure footprints.
Even when I've already logged in, there are situations where I need to confirm my email address while logging into a website. It prohibits the simultaneous log-in of several accounts. When you switch between accounts, you are automatically logged out. LogMeIn Central is far …
I like all of the products I list. I have worked with Connect Wise and MS Intune. Kaseya VSA was part of the initial review list of products, however it was eliminated. MS and CW are good they have many of the similar items the LogMeIn Central by GoTo does, Remote Management, …
The closets of the above mentioned would be screenconnect and we do have some clients that use it. Screenconnect is a little cheaper for the client to use compared the LogMeIn Central by GoTo but the overall ease of use is better the LogMeIn Central by GoTo. Anydesk, RemotePC …
LogMeIn Central along with Rescue are our go to for solving and maintaining issues. It's support and documentation I feel are much better than others in the past. I learning curve seems easier for our users and techs, and just overall feels more secure and professional for our …
Very similar to GotoMyPC (LogMeIn was rebranded as GoTo, hence the UI change I mentioned), Splashtop, and TeamViewer, as far as cost, usability, features.
In our quotations and evaluation of the suppliers the best proposal and best service was from Central. The company asks to quote 3 companies, and the best of them in our evaluation taking into account cost benefit was Central (LogMeIn). The access to computers in Central's …
Pricing with Central was more competitive and the feature set was close. We did prefer some features of Control however the pricing model was much better for us with Central.
LogmeIn Central is the fastest RMM in terms of remote connection. It generally performs well on networks that have low bandwidth too. In terms of features, Datto RMM does best it because it offers such a good platform for integrations and also for scripting. The community is …
As mentioned already, Central is very flexible to remote share. So, we kept an auto-option, whenever user raise ticket, it should auto-capture the hostname based on his Employee ID. With that, no more asking user to provide anydesk/team viewer ID to beep in inside user machine …
The most valuable or powerful or reliable feature I'd say it's simplicity and easy to access and complete tasks on time. Its single pane where we have all the control systems, tools and features. I also like how the remote connection is stable and fast. The support is very …
I did not like the Kaseya product, it was difficult to us and had constant connection issues. We currently utilize Endpoint Central and love it. However, we will maintain Central for the screen sharing product. TeamViewer is ok but is slow and clunky.
Well, it's the other way around. We used LogMeIn Central for 6 years. It always worked for us. The biggest issue we had was performance and cost. Initially, the cost was very low for a subscription, but as time passed, the cost increased to a level where we thought it wasn't …
We have always found that our clients preferred LogMeIn Central even if they had to pay a little more [for] it! The interface is simple to use, and it's available for so many different platforms.
It allows me to be able to access other systems without the employee having to have account as well. Long as [LogMeIn Central] is installed on their system I am able to access it. The other system there were a lot of restrictions due to the fact that it required them to need an …
We currently use LogMeIn and Zoho Assist for different purposes. LogMeIn provides a much better experience for our employees and faster connection in my opinion. Zoho Assist is used as any additional tool for IT support only where we can remotely connect at the same time a …
Fast, quick, nonsense free, can downgrade picture quality for clients on mobile broadband
The three above mentioned softwares like CWA, Splashtop and Teamviewer can require you to lookup information on how to use the software, in-comparison to ISL where it's easy graphically.
Much more intuitive when compared to remote desktop and as no changes are required on the firewall on the server side, it's a much more secure connection.
Support is always quick and responsive, although I only had to contact support for license renewals over the past few years, so in essence, once a year. We made use of ISL Online at other companies too, at that time there was no real contender in the market according to my …
ISL Light is easy to use and covers all our permanant access devices but is also easy to manage our ad-hoc clients, the only negative over some is you can't automate remote tasks
I used LogMeIn Rescue for several years, and it has more features rich but is horrifically expensive compared to ISL Light, which was the main reason I changed. Chrome Remote Desktop must be viewed as a threat in the remote desktop application sphere. The features and usability …
Functionality is similar but that where it end for us. If you prefer value for money, no surprising price increases (or any increase!), instant support from UK based team who can resolve any product related query then I think ISL Light is product for you.
Multi-monitor handling is super easy with ISL Light. The licensing model of ISL Light's self-hosted version is unbeatable. Great technical support, which often used before I purchased. The unbelievable price increase during and after the covid time of remote tools, has ended, …
ISL Light has support. At AnyDesk, I've paid for 6 years, but after four years, they wanted more money, as they had a new license with only one concurrent session. ISL Light has support, but AnyDesk Support almost does not exist. The ISL address book works fine, but AnyDesk has …
More user-friendly. More affordable. A Slovenian product (which means it supports the Slovene language). User support is very satisfactory and responsive. Simple installation and does not require additional knowledge from colleagues.
Price fit our needs, and it had all the functions we needed. The others all had issues that were preventing me from using it as we do on a day to day basis. Teamviewer especially has declined to a horrible state, and they trap you in with forced renewals which is seriously …
At first we were impressed by how easy it is to get help from a remote partner. Later we found out that ISL Light is also a local product and we are happy to support local businesses.
While these are all good products and provide a solution in other use cases, at the time we were searching, ISL Light fit our use case best. It is a completely self-contained and privately hosted solution with a tool for each step, user contact, information gathering, remote …
We chose ISL Light because of ease of use for our customers and end users, as it's the fastest way of getting a connection to the mentioned user or PC. A big role also plays the reliability of secure connection.
From a single place, I can use LogMeIn Central to monitor which machines need upgrades and determine whether to delay them until after isolated testing. I can also use the One2Many tool to arrange batch updates for third-party software. Plus, it enables me to provide Ad Hoc Support sessions to staff members who are experiencing problems with their client computers.
Perfect for remotely accessing user machines. Better than any of the competitors such as Anydesk etc. Feels a lot safer and the auto rollout makes it perfect for large organisations and small Cannot think of a case when it's less appropriate!
Need a control toggle at least on AlwaysOn. User moves the mouse and you lose all control instantly.
Clipboard features are a bit wonky still, and your clipboard seems to get emptied a lot. So if you're trying to copy and paste you might lose something
Passwords for the systems are saved per machine, so if you work from multiple devices it can be tricky if you have complex passwords
What I dont like is when I run out of licenses that the only way to get more is to buy large amounts. this is very frustrating and as a small business I need to watch how much i am spending. smaller license packs would be better
The LogMeIn Central is simple to use. You can easily manage computers and servers by creating different groups. Connecting to a remote computer is a simple click-on button. You don't need the remote user's password if [they are] already logged in. You don't need the remote user on the other side if you want to take full control. Overall the usability is simple.
It is very easy to use. You hardly need any computer knowledge to learn how to use it, as everything is displayed in easily recognizable icons. Although its appearance does not look cutting-edge, it could have a more modern look, but it must be said that everything is understandable, and with just a couple of taps on each icon that appears, you already know what each thing is for, and it allows you to use it skillfully and fluidly. Everything is perfect in this regard.
It has saved us countless times, and we didn't need to get boots on the ground to fix or maintain patches or errors. Being able to solve a number of issues for a central location without having to have a tech travel is invaluable as far as resources and time spent for everyone.
Every time I called in with a question or concern, your support team always provided the right information. It's great to call in to support and everyone that answers is very knowledgeable of the product.
We had issues with mouse skipping on mobile devices. Support is immediatly availabe, they examined our case and in one of the new versions of the app this problem was gone.
We use both LogMeIn Central by GoTo and a true RMM product. LogMeIn Central by GoTo has its role as an easier method to remotely access selected oft-used machines, whereas the RMM product is much, much more cost effective to rollout to entire infrastructure footprints.
In our specific case user console simplicity in ISL light is a major positive for ISL light. ISL always on agent for unattended access is vastly superior to TeamViewer's solution. TeamViewer has become bloated in recent years, changing things for the sake of changing them, rather than improving their offering. One advantage TeamViewer has is a copy-paste file function that does not require the use of cumbersome file transfer tool.
Time, many times when some service needed privileged access (administrator) the resolver agent needed to go to the user and this travel time (10 - 15 minutes) because this is a large company. Basically we reduced 50 minutes of service to 20, even 10 minutes
After the implementation we achieved a 20% increase in our ticket resolution rate and a 57% increase in the SLA service rate
