Likelihood to Recommend As long as there is internet connectivity, Getscreen.me is useful for connecting to your desktop or a server in order to work remotely. An example would be a dedicated machine for rendering video. We use Getscreen.me to log in and start the render. Connecting to a client desktop to provide on system support. There is the ability to log and record activity when the application is used, this would be helpful for monitoring activity of a remote desktop tech support team. Reporting is basic but provides enough information to track interactions.
Read full review If a colleague needs reliable, fast, easy to manage and easy to learn remote support software, then this is it. If you need a remote support app that just installs and works, it literatlly can be set up in seconds. Open, offer remote support, get code and send it to the other side. The only time I would not recommend ISL Light is if my colleague need remote connect software just to connect to one non essential machine - like home media computer. For that I would suggest some free software. But as soon you need to connect to couple of computers or much more that ISL Light would be the only recommendation.

If this can be improved on - the GETSCREEN.ME get a 10 out of 10 from us! Read full review I would like the chat not to get in the way during the sessions, although it is something not so important if it could be seen better. Something in the design does not look so modern, I would like its interface to look more attractive. Read full review Likelihood to Renew Value for money - Getscreen.me stands above the rest!
Read full review We are renew the license for 10 years now and we do not see why would change that. It just gets better with every new version.
Read full review Usability The app interface will be familiar to someone has used other remote desktop applications such as TeamViewer. The connection is smooth but performance will vary dependent on Internet bandwidth. Some of the problems we ran into were the white label options. Reading the instructions quickly resolved any setup problems we had. To note, the app (as of this review) does not allow white label branding of the internal dashboard.

Read full review Alternatives Considered In my experience, Getscreen.me stacks up very well against other remote desktop software like
TeamViewer and
AnyDesk . One of the things I appreciate most about Getscreen.me is its competitive pricing. Compared to other remote control services like
TeamViewer or
AnyDesk , I find that Getscreen.me offers fantastic value for money.In terms of functionality, Getscreen.me has all the features I need, including cross-platform access, file transfer, and remote control. I also find the quick access function to be incredibly useful, as it allows me to connect to a remote computer in just two clicks.
