ISL Light vs. RemotePC

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.

RemotePC is very well suited for remote administration and remote access to own PC's. Larger scale implementations might require integration and gateway server. Mobile access best requires a tablet however without a mouse navigation can be cumbersome. Multiple connections on one PC seems currently not supported so a one on one link for the time being

• Allow remote control of Windows, Mac, Android and iOS
• Automatically record support / remote sessions
• Allow UAC easy control remotely
• Auto-recognize the OS of the client, to download the correct remote file for them to execute
• Very fast connection speed (initial connect, and on-going session speed)
• Allowing us to use our own website AND the islonline.net in case there are issues

• It installs well using common sense (which is not common)
• It is easy to use
• It is easy to setup unique encryption keys for maximum security for each system in your dashboard

Incentivized

• 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.

• Streaming quality of remote desktop
• More options for unattended access
• Client should be set up to access Windows login screen by default

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.

I still find value in this tool. If I needed to increase computers supported, I would need to revaluate pricing concerns.

Web portal as well as the mobile apps are simple to use interfaces. Nothing daunting about them at all.

Pretty easy to setup and use. Get up and running and support users.

We had issues with mouse skipping on mobile devices. Support is immediatly availabe, they examined our case and in one of the new versions of the app this problem was gone.

- Biggest turnoff for TeamViewer: The different version (Connection doesn't work if there are different versions running) - No password or such things needed, just a code which is automatically generated - Easy Modus to see UAC-Windows and complete administrative tasks - Stay connected even after a restart - Wide range of options and customization - Easy Interface and super maneuverability

Although TeamViewer stands as the top product for remote support, the same goes for its pricing. A small business like ours wouldn't be able to afford software like TeamViewer and we would never be using most of its features. On the other end, Splashtop is an affordable option, but its deployment is a little too complicated. RemotePC was our choice, with an easy deployment process and a pricing program that's easy to understand and within our budget.

Incentivized

• Saves time: able to help our customers right-away. No need to visit them physically
• Fastest aid in problem-solving: customer happy and more likely to return
• Negative: not much negativity about ISL Light, although I get even less in-person contact with clients :-)

• reduced downtime with quick integration
• ability to quickly access a remote computer, even when you don't have ready access to your own system. Any computer will work in a pinch :)
• multi platform support simplifies interaction between various operating systems.
