Omnipresent vs. Remote People

Omnipresent is a great solution for companies looking to grow globally but that don't have the resources or market understanding to open new legal entities in other countries. We found that they beat their competitors when it comes to customer service and employee experience.

Horizons is great when you need to utilize voice on the VM. Horizons is also great when you need to utilize peripherals like a physical machine. Overall, Horizons is a pretty good solution when it functions properly. The constant disconnections from the agent get extremely annoying. It seems like the best way to resolve the issue is to restart the VM in vCenter. This wouldn't be an issue for a small team, but if you're running 100+ VMs and this is happening every day to so many machines, it gets irritating that you can't be more productive elsewhere because you have to resolve the agent issue by restarting the VM before you can work on more important tasks or projects.

• Consistency - There's been a lot of turnover of staff over the past year. It would be ideal to have the same account manager for more than six months.
• In many countries, Omnipresent uses local service providers to employ folks. In those countries, we see really long response times, and the info provided isn't always accurate or easy to understand.

• Disconnection from Horizons Agent randomly which forces the VM to need to be restarted before Horizons can administer it again and end users can login.
• Speed when being utilized by end users compared to Microsoft RDP. Horizons is noticeably slower compared to Microsoft RDP.
• Failover functionality when VMs disconnect from agent.

Omnipresent has a good customer support system. We have been in touch before regarding an employee who needed to be onboarded as quickly as possible (outside of the minimum 2-week onboarding time frame). An issue is that there is no number to call, and we can only rely on emails, which is frustrating when you need to get in touch ASAP. Once we got in contact, they were really helpful.

Again, this is not a software system. The question doesn't really apply

Remote, Global Velocity. We choose Omnipresent at the time due to the following reasons: 1) Cheaper. 2) Better customer service (offered a dedicated account manager). 3) Had a presence in all of the countries we wanted to hire an employee. 4) They believed speed was just important as we did when recruiting and hiring someone new. This was an important factor for us making sure we worked with a company who could get an employee signed quickly.
