    Limitations are only the effort you want to have to configure it (correctly).

    LogMeIn Pro is very well suited for small-to-medium sized organisations. The pricing is affordable and the implementation is easier. There are some concerns related to data privacy and security, hence I would not advise this to be used when your session handles PHI and PII kind of data, just to be compliant.

    • LogMeIn Pro by GoTo offers unattended remote access that’s reliable and always available. You can securely log in to a client’s device (Windows or macOS) from anywhere, even without them present.....as long as their machine is on.
    • You can transfer files during a session without disrupting work. I've also transferred some pretty large files at times without issues.
    • I like the dashboard as it makes it easy to manage and organize multiple devices across our client base. You can see online/offline status, access machines instantly, and share access with your team all in one easy to view place

    Cons
    Apache
    • We have experienced some stability problems (mostly Tomcat related).
    • The interface could be a little more user-friendly.
    • Certain keyboard shortcuts used by Guacamole GUI are impossible to use in the Firefox browser in out-of-the-box configuration.

    • Slow customer service - we know more about their product than whoever we talk to whenever we call in
    • It does not always keep the settings during session unless we disconnect and reconnect with the new settings.
    • Troubleshooting using LogMeIn is minimal. It either works or doesn't, there is not a backup/alternative method for connectivity.

    I will give a Rating of 10 for LogMeIn Pro by GoTo's overall usability because it has a centralized Dashboard to access all machines and servers and a very user-friendly User Interface. Also, the remote connectivity is very smooth and reliable as if you are working on your local desktop or laptop.

    My calls and e-mails to tech support have been few and far between, but those rare interactions were always pleasant and handled professionally. Most support can be accessed electronically, but when the need arises to actually speak to a human being, LogMeIn's customer service reps are clearly well-trained and knowledgeable. Another plus: there isn't the language barrier that I've experienced with other technology companies' support centers.

    Be aware if you have dual monitors on the host, you can only view one at a time on remote, but it is easy to toggle back and forth

    LogMeIn works well for small number of devices that need unattended remote access. For cost, LogMeIn in similar to GoToMyPC - works about the same - has similar features for about same cost

    Return on Investment

    • The software is 100% open source and free, however, we are not currently utilizing it due to stability problems we have experienced.

    • Great to allow workers to work from home. They have remote access easily and can do quick fixes without driving to the office.
    • Hard for supervisors to control work hours. Supervisors do not know when the workers are really working.
    • Being able to even access remotely via smartphone has been impactful to trouble shooting. Your main go to person is traveling and no access to a PC or internet. They can use their smartphone to remote back to the office and fix a quick issue.
