LogMeIn Central by GoToMobaXTerm
Likelihood to Recommend
GoTo (formerly LogMeIn)
LogMeIn Central by GoTo is well suited for easy, direct access to specific, perhaps mission critical, machines. Its remote control functionality and speed is very good - best in class, really. However, it simply can't replace a true and traditional RMM product in terms of robustness and overall ability (or lack thereof).

MobaXTerm shines when executing commands for large numbers of Network appliances like Switches or routers. As network Engineers, when managing an extensive infrastructure, we need tools to reduce time and work. MobaXterm Split and MultiExec features helped me push configuration changes for more than 100 Switches within a few hours.

Cons
GoTo (formerly LogMeIn)
  • It could pull up the user's login in addition to the hostname
  • Employee shortcuts like "win+r", "Ctrl+shitf+dell", on the computer that is connected remotely. This is needed
  • Being able to minimize the bar in the top corner of the screen that is left when you are connected to a remote computer

  • password manager is a pain to get to
  • when I sign out of an RDP session, the tab should close on its own. If I lose connection, then the Reconnect option can be shown
  • It should be able to update on its own, not through download and basically a reinstall

What I dont like is when I run out of licenses that the only way to get more is to buy large amounts. this is very frustrating and as a small business I need to watch how much i am spending. smaller license packs would be better

Usability
GoTo (formerly LogMeIn)
It is wonderful after the initial setup and implementation.It's fairly intuitive and easy to use for more of our tech and users. These types of products have come a long way. I've been in tech for 20+ years, and thinking back to tools like PC anywhere things have become just so much more user friendly on both ends of the device.

It's very easy for any IT administrator to use, it's highly customizable and you can download it free for personal use. It supports every protocol you can think of, has built in power shell and allows for drag and drop of SFTP file browser. I recommend this tool for any IT professional.

Reliability and Availability
GoTo (formerly LogMeIn)
During our 6 years of use, we [have] never seen any downtime from their side. The application simply works. We have had incidents when we were not able to connect to remote servers by any means, but LogMeIn Central always worked. It has saved us trips to other offices. We have few users are who live in rural areas where internet speeds are not great. Supporting these users is a big challenge, but LogMeIn Central was always a lifesaver.

LogmeIn Central is the fastest RMM in terms of remote connection. It generally performs well on networks that have low bandwidth too. In terms of features, Datto RMM does best it because it offers such a good platform for integrations and also for scripting. The community is very open with that software which really gives it a boost, and this is something LogMein Central could work on.

The list is not working, but comparing is not so great to other. The great best think of MobaXTerm is the unifing of the various program into one. The organization by folders, the storing of keys, the licence managemnt for teams. I liked much and was a plus it have some server utilities.
