GoToMyPC
Chose GoToMyPC
Biggest issue what the printer settings would get messed up everytime we tried to print remotely & then our point of sale receipts and pricing labels would not work properly.
Chose GoToMyPC
Synology was difficult was difficult to log into and also find the correct files. I could access the files but any changes did not automatically save to the computer. There was no technical support to help understand how to use the program. We do not have an IT person in our …
Chose GoToMyPC
I have used some other programs that only allowed file retrieval, but I couldn't use some of the files because you had to have the program on the remote computer and, therefore, had limited use. I also tried using Windows remote capability but ran into issues that made it …
Chose GoToMyPC
GoToMyPCC is faster, cleaner and does not log out in a short time of inactivity. The log in protocol is easier as well.
Chose GoToMyPC
I know LogMeIn and GoToMyPC merged, but I didn't like the LogMeIn format. It was harder to use. I was forced into it because GoToMyPC didn't support one of my devices.
Chose GoToMyPC
I believe LogMeIn is part of GoToMyPC. I am very satisfied with either one. But, GoToMyPC is the best program I've ever used and I am very satisfied.
Chose GoToMyPC
I have not accessed other programs. GoToMyPC has meet and exceed my needed so I have not had to look elsewhere for additional solutions.
Chose GoToMyPC
GoToMyPC is about the same as the others, as far as useability, but the price and setup are better.
Chose GoToMyPC
GoToMyPc far surpasses. I tried TeamViewer for a few months, but came right back to GoToMyPc. I like it so much better.
Chose GoToMyPC
I used it with my original Surface RT because GoToMyPC didn't work with it. I know it's now part of GoToMyPC, but I didn't like LogMein's interface as well as GoToMyPc. Just not as intuitive.
I looked at Microsoft product, but it requires all PC to run Windows Pro and only my …
Chose GoToMyPC
Price $99.00 per user to access up to 10 computers - In my opinion, GoToMyPC is far more expensive.
Chose GoToMyPC
I HAVE NOT SOUGHT TO EVALUATE OR USE ANY PRODUCT SIMILAR TO GOTOMYPC BECAUSE I HAVE BEEN 100% SATISFIED WITH GOTOMYPOC FROM DAY ONE WHICH WAS 20 YEARS AGO.
Chose GoToMyPC
I have had no other reason to use any other products, since I have no server or other users management i have to over see.
Chose GoToMyPC
I have never shopped other products, I am happy with GoToMyPC.
Chose GoToMyPC
It was a long time ago... but general speed is much better these days and more stable. This will be due to excellent WiFi, but I am sure the product is optimized, too.
Chose GoToMyPC
This is the only remote product I have ever used. I don't anticipate using any other systems in the future. GoToMyPC meets all of my needs.

GoTo (formerly LogMeIn)
I think GoToMyPC is well-suited for any scenario I have encountered, although I only have experience using it in a small firm setting. Otherwise, for working from home and traveling or file retrieval, it has proved more than adequate. I have not encountered a scenario that I thought was less than appropriate.

Cons
GoTo (formerly LogMeIn)
  • Transfer or copy files from the computer drive (c drive) to your active desktop file folders.
  • The ability to set your own "Time Out" too often I have to log back in if switching between computer screens.
  • Easier way to print documents to printers not connected to the computer being accessed.

I have been using GotomyPC for 20 years and it's gotten better with time. It's the best remote app that I've tried. The others were harder to use and not as functional. It allows us to work from anywhere just as if we were in the office. Even being able to print to my remote location is a wonderful way of doing work. I don't have to drag it to my remote device, It will just print without any hassle

Usability
GoTo (formerly LogMeIn)
Really easy to use-even if you forget your password frequently like me. The reset password feature is not cumbersome and does not require phoning Customer Service. Just a few clicks and a bit of creativity to come up with a new password. I like this "easy button" approach. Definitely recommend.

Reliability and Availability
GoTo (formerly LogMeIn)
The availability has been excellent for me. Any issue is usually due to one of my devices becoming unconnected from the internet.

Performance
GoTo (formerly LogMeIn)
The performance is dictated by the internet connection speed. As long as I have a good connection, the performance is great. And GoToMyPC has a warning when either the host or the client has a poor connection

Support Rating
GoTo (formerly LogMeIn)
I have never had to contact support. The product is so easy to use I have not needed help (yet). But if I had to contact them, I am sure they would be just as great to work with as the product itself is.

Implementation Rating
GoTo (formerly LogMeIn)
It set up quickly and assigning log ins to various computers was simple. I don't think you need many insights into the product. It's easy to implement and easy to use. Since it's a work tool, it needs be that way. I wouldn't want the tool to have any learning curve when some of the people using it are not tech savvy. They are accessing their work computers for files or to work on apps that their remote devices might not have loaded.

Alternatives Considered
GoTo (formerly LogMeIn)
I recently started having problems with Splashtop - slow response/freezes/drops, and after troubleshooting everything
internet and hardware related, decided to check out GoToMyPC as one step
in troubleshooting. GoToMyPC has better response
time and has been more reliable. So far I am pleased with the switch with just a couple of minor matters mentioned earlier in review.

Scalability
GoTo (formerly LogMeIn)
I can use it on all of my devices - even my Galaxy phone. Once you log into your device, you work on it as if you were physically in front of it. Not much complexity in that. If you can work on your own device, you can work on it through another device - even a phone.
