All Around Solution

Pros

  • Remote access. It's as good as any other on the market. It also allows for RDP connections which is a nice feature.
  • Inventory management. We get some great insight from the reports we can run.
  • Quick Jobs. If there's an app or service you use, there may be a quick job to install and update it remotely.

Cons

  • Remote desktop - while it's solid, there's definitely some room for improvement regarding speed. It's also common to get disconnected but it's easy to reconnect immediately.
  • I'd love to see better patch management. It's a battle we've been fighting for a while and had us seeking out other vendors.
  • I feel like there could be more alignment between the website and the application. I find myself going to one or the other for specific info.

Return on Investment

  • It's allowed us to be more proactive when it comes to things. We can keep an eye on computers that may need replacement. It was a lifesaver when updating to Windows 10.
  • It saves so much time compared to our previous remote software, GoToAssist. While I think GoToAssist may be a bit more solid when in action, there's too much setup time, even with unattended access. Panda is click and go.
  • Remote command prompt has also been a lifesaver, and nonintrusive for the user. The users think we are magic.
