    Considered Both Products
    N-able
    Chose N-able Take Control
    In my previous job we used Dameware which was a very good tool but lacked the managing capabilities of N-able. It has been a few years, so maybe Dameware has improved in that regard.

    Chose SolarWinds Dameware Remote Everywhere (DRE)
    A very similar product, both deliver nearly identical functionality. The interface for Dameware is easier to manage.
