Likelihood to Recommend 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).
Read full review Well suited to environments where IT staff need to access multiple servers/systems at the same time, cutting down on time wasted opening multiple windows. Not so useful for users that only need to access one system remotely, as most of its functions are largely unused in that case.
Read full review Pros IT professionals can explore and use the platform more easily because to its intuitive interfaces and user-friendly features. It keeps an eye on the functionality and health of the gadgets, sending out notifications in real time if anything seems wrong. It expands to meet the demands of expanding companies and can handle a higher volume of devices. Read full review Easy to organize and group servers. Many different protocols for remote access. The ability to make use of external applications for non-directly supported protocols. Servers can inherit settings from nodes above so you can set up properties once making adding new servers/devices very quick. Easy to export and share config with new team members (be mindful of what you do with passwords though). Read full review Cons 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 Read full review The user interface for configuration is a little basic, and not obvious for a new user to set up connections. It could be a bit clearer how to do that. It does not seem to automatically update itself to new versions - though older ones work fine, you can miss out on some new functions if you don't check for updates manually.

Read full review Usability 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.
Read full review Reliability and Availability 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.
Read full review Support Rating Every time I called in with a question or concern, your support team always provided the right information. It's great to call in to support and everyone that answers is very knowledgeable of the product.

Read full review Alternatives Considered 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.
Read full review Every now and then I do look to see if there is any other software that can bring together multiple remote access protocols in a single interface that can contain multiple connections to remote devices with image scaling to mage use of a windowed interface and have yet to find an alternative that does all that but doesn't cost a huge amount. Don't get me wrong I would happily pay for an alternative that could provide an overall better, more convenient experience, but I have yet to find one that has made me think it's worth jumping ship from mRemoteNG.
