    Chose LogMeIn Resolve
    We chose GoTo Resolve because we had been long-time GoTo Assist users and they offered a promo at the time of our service renewal. In the end, I don't feel the portions of the software we use most are as polished as what we had become used to in GoTo Assist. Additionally, our …

    I selected N-able N-central as I liked the idea of easy-to-work with pricing that integrates with other PSAs (specifically ConnectWise PSA aka Connectwise Manage). I did not succeed with that. I'd use any of the other tools instead. The integration is problematic as the default …

    We have more than 2500 individual backup jobs across our customer base. With Backup Radar, I now have a detailed, accurate insight into all jobs. I do not have to wonder or doubt if the backup job did not run, it logs a "no result in 24 hours" ticket for me and if it failed, I get a failure ticket logged. It cannot be more simple. This is done across multiple different backup software. The reporting, be it on demand, or scheduled, is absolutely brilliant and super valuable

    LogMeIn is well-suited for scenarios where remote support is needed. For example, a user submits a ticket about having an issue with Microsoft Word being unable to open documents on their PC. Since this is just a software issue on the device, LogMeIn is great for being able to fix the issue. Scenarios, I would say LogMeIn Resolve is not as well-suited for inventory management. But that's only because my organization has a proprietary system to manage assets.

    N-Able is perfect for an MSP environment. It gives all the standard functionality an IT professional needs out of the box and can be configured to show almost anything required. For example, we have configured a dashboard to show when our backups need attention for each customer. This is achieved by running a small script on repeat via N-Central everyday/evening, and the result gives us information on the dashboard to help us identify exactly what is working and what needs looking into.

    • Allows easy, comprehensive access to Apple products via web-based applet. (It does require customer input and cooperation.)
    • It allows me to resolve issues remotely, most times within minutes instead of hours, without a physical location visit.
    • It allows the customer to view my activity, giving them peace of mind that nothing untoward occurs during my interaction. I also use the record feature so all sessions are recorded, especially on rare occasions when there is an issue or question from the session.

    • Remote tasks - entry-level techs can run basic tasks without physically touching a piece of equipment.
    • Remote support - remote controlling user devices is easy and saves a lot of time with having to initiate a remote session.
    • Management of devices, particularly patch management and anti-virus management - you can automatically approve and deploy patches and schedule automatic AV scans.

    • The user interface is clunky and difficult to use in terms of CRITICAL functions that lie at the core of any remote access solution.
    • ctrl + key combos are currently terribly implemented and difficult to use - since this is one of the most common keys used in Windows - this presents MASSIVE usability issues that impede my workflow all day every single day.
    • And now - in a recent development - SHIFT + key combos are currently terribly implemented and difficult to use - since this is one of the most common keys used in Windows - this presents MASSIVE usability issues that impede my workflow all day every single day.
    • Things like frequently used key combos and shortcuts should work the same via remote access solutions as they do on a hardware keyboard. Anything else is an annoyance and an impediment to workflow and productivity.

    • Customer support just points to online guides and I feel they aren't helpful.
    • During the trial they turn on a lot of features. In my experience, if you play around with the features, they charge you for them. Keep this in mind if you move forward with N-Able - they will charge for "trialed" services.
    • In my experience, some services that you're being charged for can't be disabled or monitored by you or your team. You only see them on the monthly invoice.
    • In my opinion, the "Scripting Automation" doesn't provide value. You're either going to be writing your own batch or Powershell to make scripting work.
    • In my opinion, monitoring software deployments is painful.
    • The default monitoring template can't be duplicated, edited, or referenced. You'll find that the default monitors in an unusual way and will throw needless recurring alerts into your ticketing system. To avoid this, you need to create a template from scratch which takes many hours to set up.
    • In my opinion, they're more concerned about a quick buck than customer service. "Buyer beware" company.

    I would say yes, we would definitely renew, everyone likes it in the IT dept, and there are more features we have yet to put to use. I am expanding the Windows update / Endpoint features as I get time, and the remote PowerShell console is unbeatable for me at present when facing remote computers that are not letting create a new remote PSSession.

    Overall we have liked our solar winds experience, however, as our company has grown to support larger enterprises, this product does not have the functionality that our teams need in order to fully support them. The lack of granularity with backups and lack of ability to support nutanix environments is slowly drawing us into the use of other tools.

    The interface is clean, intuitive, and easy to navigate. Common actions are easy to locate and exactly where I would expect them to be. Starting a remote session is quick and smooth, which reduces the time users need to wait before receiving support. I also appreciate the single-pane dashboard showing remote access, session details, and device information.

    The user interface is fairly straight forward, with logic groupings for objects. I did not deploy this software, but am one of the daily administrators. Once you get the correct agent package (Which can be a challenge) the integration into AD is not bad. The UI could be more customized, but that may have been a design choice.

    Every time we have reached out to SolarWinds they are quick to respond, even offering support chat 24/7. Their support team is great and works with you to find solutions to issues. They have taken items we had issues with before and used those to create updates so that the issue is handled better in the future.

    Although the SolarWinds help desk worked well for our help desk and inventory purposes, it did not provide remote access ability or remote execution of executable files or scripts. We were looking for a product that integrated all of these tasks in order to simplify our day to day IT functions.

    Our version of SolarWinds was old and running on old hardware, but it was way easier to setup and do things with. It did not do everything N-able does such as patch management, or at least we didn't have a module to do so if one existed. However it definitely seemed easier to use and possibly more stable.

    • LogMeIn Resolve has increased productivity for our support teams with the addition of camera share. Not only are we able to remote into workstations, but with camera share we can utilize end user and customer phones to visually see physical setups to troubleshoot some situations on the fly.
    • Unattended support now requires the agent to enter in a signature key as an extra layer of security before accessing a device, which further improves the safety of all devices registered for unattended.
