LogMeIn Rescue is a remote
support solution for PCs, Macs, and mobile devices. LogMeIn Rescue is designed to help IT teams to
offer fast technical support and ensure a secure remote
support session for both the IT professional and the end user. From small
teams of IT helpdesk technicians to enterprise-level organizations, LogMeIn Rescue…
Teamviewer is much more useful for transferring files, but its changing interfaces and neeedless complexity make it less than ideal for our routine use
Synology was difficult was difficult to log into and also find the correct files. I could access the files but any changes did not automatically save to the computer. There was no technical support to help understand how to use the program. We do not have an IT person in our …
I have used some other programs that only allowed file retrieval, but I couldn't use some of the files because you had to have the program on the remote computer and, therefore, had limited use. I also tried using Windows remote capability but ran into issues that made it …
Biggest issue what the printer settings would get messed up everytime we tried to print remotely & then our point of sale receipts and pricing labels would not work properly.
I know LogMeIn and GoToMyPC merged, but I didn't like the LogMeIn format. It was harder to use. I was forced into it because GoToMyPC didn't support one of my devices.
As said before LogMeIn Rescue is much more intuitive and easy to use than the competition, I much prefer to use LogMeIn Rescue because it is much better in terms of settings and design choices, thank you for the work LogMeIn Rescue you are the professionals you think you are, …
Truth be told, Rescue is the first and so far only solution from LogMeIn I started to use. However since it offers a wide range of tools specifically designed for remote support, it is highly effective for resolving technical issues. Additionally, Rescue provides various …
Inferior in most regards. Bomgar does the turning off of font smoothing by default, but it is trivially easy to disable, and the session quality is outstanding after doing so. ConnectWise Control doesn't do it at all. Google Remote Desktop is also great (except for not …
LogMeIn Rescue in was faster and much more user friendly than netop as well as netop was more complex setup and even complex for users as they needed to provided full ip address. UI was not clear at all for user or technicians making the learning curve steeper in Netop case.
I have never used any other mirroring system. I would not know how they compete but I do know LogMeIn Rescue is great but needs some fixing on bugs and capabilities with how fast the system moves especially because the whole point is to fix and help fastly and in a timely manner.
Being in Product Support in the company, I require to get access to customer's screenshare and help resolve the issues that they face. So LogMeIn Rescue offers such a user-friendly application with minimal efforts to get those access with all the permissions and help resolve …
It wasn't fully my decision to change from AnyDesk to LogMeIn Rescue - If it was up to me, I would have stuck to AnyDesk due to the cost (LogMeIn Rescue is much more expensive) and the ability to save login information and have multiple technicians connect at the same time …
Prior to LogMeIn Rescue we used Go To Assist. However, Go To Assist did not offer everything we needed in order to be able to support our clients. Since the switch to LogMeIn Rescue, we have many more options that allow us to not only better assist our clients, but to do so …
LogMeIn Rescue by GoTo options are better positioned from others. Also the option to share files, is better to be run in another window, but reflected on main screen. The chat option is my favorite, as it is run by the side of the remote window, not like Anydesk, which is not …
Bomgar does a better job with Mac machines. When a remote connection freezes on LMi, we will switch to bomgar. Bomgar also allows monitoring of customer support systems where LMI does not.
My primary tool for remote connections is via GFI preinstalled on client PCs. So I primarily use Logmein Rescue for ad-hoc situations. I do also use Microsoft Quick Assist but I find some end users have trouble with that as it sometimes requires them to sign in. Not all end …
LogMeIn Rescue by GoTo is by far superior feature wise when it comes to other solutions we've trialed. The cost of rescue is the only part that makes you have to stop and think before procurement, we had to significantly justify our reasons for this product over some of the …
I highly recommend GoToMyPC if you need to more than a mere data access, but need to virtually be sitting in front of a remote computer. The ability for the user on the other end to watch your actions is also very helpful
Most of the time it is great. Sometimes with iPads it is not great or too expensive for orgs to pay for an option to allow iPads to be logged into along with computers and windows computer tablets. When needing to view something a client is talking about. It is great to use login to understand the issue and possibly fix any issues we need.
The rescue lens feature has come in handy to save us plenty of times. being able to have eyes on the end users' side to see how things are actually physically connected.
Having the ability to collaborate with other technicians is a feature that I have not seen in other applications. normally the other person has to connect as well which results in lowered connection speed on the end user's side since 2 connections are running.
The tools to be able to locate and audit sessions are also very valuable for measuring the performance of my technicians.
On occasion an email or a program document does not print at home.
I save to hard drive at home and will have to log out of GoToMyPC to access the file on my external hard drive, email it, and the log back in. Not a big deal.
I have been using GotomyPC for 20 years and it's gotten better with time. It's the best remote app that I've tried. The others were harder to use and not as functional. It allows us to work from anywhere just as if we were in the office. Even being able to print to my remote location is a wonderful way of doing work. I don't have to drag it to my remote device, It will just print without any hassle
We may continue using Logmein as it is the best remote support application in terms of connection latency and control. However, since several of our client sites have stricter security policies they block this application and we have to switch to other ways which is inconvenient
Really easy to use-even if you forget your password frequently like me. The reset password feature is not cumbersome and does not require phoning Customer Service. Just a few clicks and a bit of creativity to come up with a new password. I like this "easy button" approach. Definitely recommend.
For user i think it needs improvement as every remote session I need to download the app, find it, open it, and allow access. For Agent it is well suited to provide support and preform any task required on the user workstation
The performance is dictated by the internet connection speed. As long as I have a good connection, the performance is great. And GoToMyPC has a warning when either the host or the client has a poor connection
I have never had to contact support. The product is so easy to use I have not needed help (yet). But if I had to contact them, I am sure they would be just as great to work with as the product itself is.
I'd say support for LogMeIn is ideal because I haven't ever been in a situation where additional support was necessary. The program runs so efficiently and simply that nothing was needed beyond initial training that was provided by my company. I am saying this as a user that strictly uses the technician console
It set up quickly and assigning log ins to various computers was simple. I don't think you need many insights into the product. It's easy to implement and easy to use. Since it's a work tool, it needs be that way. I wouldn't want the tool to have any learning curve when some of the people using it are not tech savvy. They are accessing their work computers for files or to work on apps that their remote devices might not have loaded.
I have used some other programs that only allowed file retrieval, but I couldn't use some of the files because you had to have the program on the remote computer and, therefore, had limited use. I also tried using Windows remote capability but ran into issues that made it difficult for a non-IT person to easily deal with.
Truth be told, Rescue is the first and so far only solution from LogMeIn I started to use. However since it offers a wide range of tools specifically designed for remote support, it is highly effective for resolving technical issues. Additionally, Rescue provides various connection methods and customizable interfaces, allowing support teams like mine to tailor the experience to specific needs.
I can use it on all of my devices - even my Galaxy phone. Once you log into your device, you work on it as if you were physically in front of it. Not much complexity in that. If you can work on your own device, you can work on it through another device - even a phone.
GoToMyPC has had a positive impact on my ROI as a small business.
After completing the last questions, it appears that I am not fully utilizing all the features that are available and I could have an even greater experience if I am able to learn more about these unused offerings within GoToMyPC.
For businesses with small to midsize IT staff, the ability to remotely control devices that are not on-site and occasionally out of state is extremely cost-effective.
The speedy response time of LogMeIn Rescue has been very helpful in resolving issues for IT staff.
The administrative process has been made more efficient by the ability to remotely log into servers.
