ASG-Remote Desktop

If multiple sets of credentials and User Directories are involved across the servers you're connecting to, this is a huge help in organizing them all and managing changes over time. Having multiple concurrent server connections in tabs instead of separate windows is also much more convenient. While we're only using RDP, there are multiple connection methods to facilitate a mixed environment.

LogMeIn Rescue

LogMeIn Rescue works great when providing technical support to end-users. We are a software consulting company that supports many end-users who are not always tech-savvy. I have used other remote access tools in the past which were cumbersome or complicated to get non-tech users to connect. LogMeIn Rescue works every time and is simple and easy to use.When installing updates on remote computers, it can sometimes take several hours and you often need to restart the computer. The unattended access feature works great in allowing the end user to not need to be present at their desk while we do our work.

  • Easy to use with our end users. Setting up the connection is relatively simple for the most part.
  • Doesnt seem to be a whole lot of lag, except when connecting to users that are on a VPN. (Expected behavior)
  • The file transfer tool is really easy to use and its only failed a couple of times.

Cons

ASG-Remote Desktop

  • I'd like to be able to tag computers by criteria (ie location, function, etc) then be able to sort them in the left-hand pane.

LogMeIn Rescue

  • The most important feature that is missing is its ability to schedule a meeting ahead of time and integrating it with the office mail systems.
  • Their is no integration of voice so you have to resort to other calling app or phone to have a verbal interaction with the client.
  • In some cases it would be nice to set up a secured unattended remote access feature. This is particularly useful in big organizations where the remote systems are not always accessible quickly by the clients. So, if a mutually agreed secure link will help.

There is something to be said for familiarity. The interface is intuitive and easy to use. It makes juggling several support sessions at once possible, and even fun. We already have more the 2300 computers out there right now with the calling card installed. It is an excellent backup solution for remote connections when other products will not connect due to spyware or PUPs.

The user interface is extremely simple and easy to understand. It is a very minimalistic approach and does not confuse the user nor the technician. This makes it highly attractive especially for users that are not computer savvy or have trouble understanding.

I never had to engage support for LogMeIn Rescue because I never had any problem with it. I never needed someone to show me how to do something because everything is so intuitive and it only takes a few minutes to figure out how to do things, so I can't provide a good answer to this question. I know that their sales team are responsive whenever we have licensing related inquiries, so I assume that their support would be of similar quality.

Alternatives Considered

ASG-Remote Desktop

ASG-Remote is very flexible and with so many options available it makes the configuration you want for your setup super simple. Other products do not offer the extra features for database and reporting. As well, it offers all the connection types you can possibly think of. The ability to automate tasks for regular servers and workstations is amazing!

We used a trial version of a few other alternatives but this was the one that consistently had the least number of problems. We also liked that it functioned well in slow speed scenarios. Plus it had a more complete feature set than the other competitors we trialled

  • We have noticed an overall increase in our productivity and are able to provide support to multiple clients at the same time.
  • Client users are generally able to follow along as we use the in-session chat windows to communicate.
  • The File transfer feature is a solid way to deliver patches and other support tools to speed things along very easily
