    As an MSP, we can have our creative team create one signature (or many) to deploy to a client, which gives them a consistent message and helps them look more professional than a business of their size might otherwise be able to. The integration with Microsoft 365 is simple to set up.

    It is very easy to use if the remote device is already set up to receive connections, so if you are setting up devices before deploying them, it is a great tool to have. It is well-suited to use when shadowing users or using it as a teaching tool. There are other products that are better if you are trying to help someone on a one-use basis.

    • VNC Connect does an excellent job in remotely connecting to a computer through either your local area network or even another computer on the internet. As long as the VNC Connect services is installed and the client is running in the background.
    • VNC Connect provides password protection to prevent unauthorized users from attempting to remotely access your computer. There's an option to have a separate password to remotely view vs view & access a computer. You can even add an additional level of security by turning on the feature to require Windows login credentials.
    • VNC Connect provides an additional set of controls after a remote connection has been established with another computer. You can have special keystrokes like Ctrl+Alt+Del sent as a command sequence to the other computer as well as access more than a single screen when in use at the remote computer location.

    Cons
    CodeTwo Software
    • I would absolutely love to see the introduction of being able to force a branding format (Font, size etc) across our email real estate, this was a feature moons ago but would love to see this come back especially when Microsoft can kill all this for you at the drop of a hat....erm Aptos makes me sad!
    • Easier to navigate training and how to videos to allow you to work out how to make changes and be creative yourself more
    • I genuinely cant think of another point here!

    • Its a pretty straight forward product - I would like to see more tools with a "wow" factor.
    • Panel colors are blah - I would like more eye-catching colors.
    • A more consistent look with all platforms - like Mac & PC.

    VNC is a solid product for the price. It simply works and its reliable across different platforms. Some products state they work well in the Mac environment but don't deliver. This one does what it says. Connections are reliable, but of course, this depends on internet connections. The product works well over wireless connections as well. It delivers on what a remote tool should deliver on. My technicians are happy with the product and customers appreciate the ease of use when letting us connect to their systems. Some also appreciate the remote support while they are multi-task.

    Usability
    CodeTwo Software
    As already described, the set-up process is kept totally simple. This makes setup quick even for untrained administrators. If anything is unclear, you can find all the information you need on the manufacturer's website. As access and configuration are carried out via the web browser, adjustments can be made from any end device. Whether on the move, in the office or at home.

    It's a niche product and in that niche they try to cater to as many use cases as they can. Other as a TCO aspect i don't see many use cases where you can't use this product as the one tool for all remote session use cases in your company

    No problems but we had a couple of questions about functionality or edge use cases and anytime I contacted CodeTwo Email Signatures 365 support I was absolutely happy with their responses. Very helpful, polite and smart people are working over at CodeTwo Email Signatures 365 support. I would suggest other companies to take note on CodeTwo Email Signatures 365's quality of support and service.

    VNC Connect is a reliable product that has been around for a long time. It is reasonably priced and works well in the Mac & PC environment. When you have a small team that supports many users we need tools that we can rely upon and that will get the job done on the first try. Many customers appreciate the quick assistance and can multi-task while our team works on their computer issues remotely. From a customer service point of view, this tool gives us transparency and efficient effectiveness.

    The training is very informative, quick and to the point. All of the details one would need are present so the user doesn't have to go searching for additional information just to use the application. The layout of the training was also neat and concise, some of the other training sessions for other companies I've done in the past were confusing and not well thought out, this one is much more superior

    It is important to make sure Active Directory is correctly populated and that content is standardized, eg telephone number formats.

    The Office 365 integration and the email profile management was tighter looking in CodeTwo Email Signatures 365, which is why we selected them over the competitors. I also liked the ability to use logic and variables in the signatures to allow us to be a little more creative in the applications.

    VNC is light and sleek with the quick setup, was impressed with the quick setup despite poor Internet connection outdoor. TeamViewer is good, but the pricing is not as good as VNC. Both do the basic job, but VNC still outperform TeamViewer in terms of performance and ease of use.
