Goverlan Reach vs. LogMeIn Resolve

This product is a must for any help desk that is supporting an active directory based network. Scope action capabilities also make it valuable to systems administrators etc.

LogMeIn Resolve is great for ad-hoc remote support with end users or customers that need on-demand assistance. The unattended support function makes it easy to connect to devices within an organization and provides several options on starting up the session that were not available with previous services. I can log in remotely to my work PC and black out the screen, so any sensitive information remains confidential.

• Good configurable dashboard that can be personalized per audience
• Built in packages for monitoring standard applications that can be personalized easily
• Simple, easy to use update deployment configuration.

• Performs well for remote access in terms of speed - there isn't much lag on fast networks.
• Provides an easy way to share files with the client which stramlines the support process.
• GoTo Support has been responsive when I've needed help.

• Machines must be online for actions to be performed, scopes allow you to rerun them against failed objects only but really a much better option would be for client agent to check in at power on for open jobs.
• Newest version of Reach is glitchy on Windows 10 requiring the occasional restart of the application.

• It would be nice to have a one-click launch capability. There are times when walking through a user who isn't experienced that they have a hard time launching the program.
• A batch file that launches a network connection and the program at the same time.

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.

Navigation is easy and friendly. It does almost everything, but being cloud, it gets slow. Session recording is allowed. Zoom in and out feature works very well, especially during remote sessions and multiple machine sessions simultaneously. Dual-screen monitors are accessible. East and convenient user interface. The diagnostics feature is outstanding, and it gives detailed diagnostics of the system. So these are the pros that prompt me to provide such ratings.

Usually available without a problem, although sometimes calls get dropped or users sit in empty meeting rooms while waiting for an admin to arrive, while the call is actually going on.

If you are connected to someone with proper bandwidth, there are no issues at all. With all things, if you connect to someone with dial-up (yes, it still exists), the performance is terrible.

Ive used their tech support a handful of times, and each time they have been able to help me sort out any hiccups or kinks that arise. They have a resourceful knowledge base, and have experts available for training and troubleshooting. I often recommend them to my other coworkers and colleagues because of the ease of use and security

GoToAssist SeeIt was very easy to implement. As long as your techs have a basic understanding of most remote support tools they will be able to understand this product easily.

Not as full featured for Microsoft products but better at cross platform uses. Agent-less option works better in Goverlan.

GoTo Resolve is not necessarily an app that I personally chose to use in my organization; this is just one of many that I have interacted with and experienced through the different organizations that I have worked at over the years. However, I will say that I enjoy the engaging colors of GoTo Resolve in comparison to the other competitiors.

• With a product like this it is entirely possible that you will see large increase in Help Desk efficiency for those who are willing to take the time to fully explore its possibilities.
• Much more robust that any other remote support product I have used while still extremely cheap compared to competing products. This can bring enterprise level support options to those that may normally not be able to afford it.
• Reporting features are invaluable to anyone wanting to truly know what is happening on their network.

• GoTo Resolve has dropped our overall expenditures for the GoTo product line by 80%. We were at one point paying for Assist, Webinar, Meeting, and Connect... and were able to drop three and keep the latter with Resolve to meet all of our needs.
• GoTo Resolve would likely have an even greater ROI if we actually utilized many of it's other features, such as the HelpDesk and device management. Being a smaller company, we don't have a need for a ticketing system and things of that nature.
• The reporting feature contains an amazing amount of useful information about the remote sessions conducted.
