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.

This tool is ideal in any networked multi user / multi device scenario, where remote access/control/management and user support is needed.
It saves a lot of IT and user time as it limits user issues and down time.
It also saves money on the long run as it allows IT teams to work more efficiently and with more personnel.

Pros
  • 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.

  • It is embedded with great features like voice support, video assistance, and even text support, which provides a great user experience.
  • It provides features like remotely shut down the end system, renaming the endpoints, full list of applications running, process use, memory consumption, disk usage which are very beneficial.
  • We can even uninstall unwanted applications, delete malicious files, kill heavily used process, modify registry values.
  • It helps in to keep track of windows event that occurs in the system, it also provides report in desired format.

Cons
  • one of the prompt in windows users is not vissible, somethimes users missed it and you must start from scratch
  • more documentation for apple users
  • never could record a session, all the time was a permissions issue, don't know how to do it

  • It is an agent based solution which is a major disadvantage. We can not control the system which do not have agent installed on them. Hence this is a disadvantage. Even installing agent is a big task in a large organization.
  • Till the agent are not installed on every system we can not have full control over the organization network. Agent deployment takes time hence we can utilize the product with its full efficiency.
  • The pricing is very high, and it goes on increasing as we add more technician and endpoints.
  • The connection gets drop sometime while controlling in new release because it contains some bugs. We also need to have proper bandwidth for using it smoothly.
  • The implementation and deployment takes time and needs proper support from vendor. Sufficient documentation are also not available.

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

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

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

The best part about ManageEngine Remote Access Plus is that it supports every operating system which any employee can use like Mac, Linux, or Windows. It is packed with some incredible features for support and troubleshooting like inventory list, drag and drop files, keep track of memory use, process utilization, application installed and provide complete controlling like uninstalling unwanted application, executing command and pushing updates. All these features are hardly present in a single software hence ManageEngine Remote Access Plus is the perfect choice for the organization.
