Action1 vs. Symantec pcAnywhere (Discontinued)

If you need a solution to help you remotely manage your endpoints this is a no-brainer. I highly recommend signing up for the trial and pushing the agent out to a few endpoints to test

Synmantec pcAnywhere is excellent when you require a secure remote connection, and you have enough computational power and internet bandwidth.

• Customer service and support team are easy to reach and response time is really fast
• Interface is really user friendly and easy to use

• Multiple connections
• Cross-platform
• Decent UX

Incentivized

• I wish the remote connection has a file transfer feature.
• I hope Action1 will implement DLP and Secure Web Gateway features in the future.

• Sometimes it is too slow
• Consumes too much bandwidth

Action1 Cloud Remote Monitoring and Management Solution may not be as feature rich as SCCM and Intune, but it does its job without having to set up and support additional infrastructure on your network. It's more user friendly than ManageEngine's Desktop Central but does most of the same tasks you would be getting from ManageEngine's cloud version of their desktop management system.

[We chose Synamtec pcAnywhere because] its embedded both-direction encryption exceeds the industry requirements.

Incentivized

• ROI = Time saved for us.
• The Action1 agent has allowed us to maintain the security of our endpoints by allowing us to update all software on our fleet of devices.

• It allows us to comply with the latest safe browsing requirements.
