LogMeIn Pro by GoTo vs. ManageEngine Remote Access Plus

LogMeIn Pro is very well suited for small-to-medium sized organisations. The pricing is affordable and the implementation is easier. There are some concerns related to data privacy and security, hence I would not advise this to be used when your session handles PHI and PII kind of data, just to be compliant.

ManageEngine Remote Access Plus is very well suited in environments which consist hybrid operating system. It supports all types of OS like windows, Mac, and Linux. It helps in taking the remote of system and troubleshoot the m if any problem occurs hence engineers do not need to be physically present on the location for the purpose of solving it. It helps to keep a complete track of endpoints that what application, process is being used. It is not well suited in environment where there is no Active directory or SCCM server because ManageEngine Remote Access Plus need agent to work and deploying agent the environment where Active directory does not exist is a big task. Manually deploying agent on every system is very time taking and need so much of effort.

• Ease of connection. You can use their web login and connection through there. You can also install the client app and connect via it. Easy and fast.
• Remote Control is fantastic. It scales the screens great. There is no lag in the screen refreshes.
• Remote printing is good. You can be working on your PC at the office via LogMeIn and print to your local PC at your current location with ease.

• It is embedded with great features like voice support, video assistance, and even text support, which provides a great user experience.
• It provides features like remotely shut down the end system, renaming the endpoints, full list of applications running, process use, memory consumption, disk usage which are very beneficial.
• We can even uninstall unwanted applications, delete malicious files, kill heavily used process, modify registry values.
• It helps in to keep track of windows event that occurs in the system, it also provides report in desired format.

• Slow customer service - we know more about their product than whoever we talk to whenever we call in
• It does not always keep the settings during session unless we disconnect and reconnect with the new settings.
• Troubleshooting using LogMeIn is minimal. It either works or doesn't, there is not a backup/alternative method for connectivity.

Incentivized

• It is an agent based solution which is a major disadvantage. We can not control the system which do not have agent installed on them. Hence this is a disadvantage. Even installing agent is a big task in a large organization.
• Till the agent are not installed on every system we can not have full control over the organization network. Agent deployment takes time hence we can utilize the product with its full efficiency.
• The pricing is very high, and it goes on increasing as we add more technician and endpoints.
• The connection gets drop sometime while controlling in new release because it contains some bugs. We also need to have proper bandwidth for using it smoothly.
• The implementation and deployment takes time and needs proper support from vendor. Sufficient documentation are also not available.

It works great

Only giving a 9 rather than 10 due to the occasional issue after LogMeIn runs updates, and sometimes I have to walk end-user (on Macs) through "allowing" access to services - have not encountered that on PCs

My calls and e-mails to tech support have been few and far between, but those rare interactions were always pleasant and handled professionally. Most support can be accessed electronically, but when the need arises to actually speak to a human being, LogMeIn's customer service reps are clearly well-trained and knowledgeable. Another plus: there isn't the language barrier that I've experienced with other technology companies' support centers.

Be aware if you have dual monitors on the host, you can only view one at a time on remote, but it is easy to toggle back and forth

ConnectWise is a much easier program to use. The end-user either types in a code or you send an email with a link to the session. A small applet is installed on their computer so you can connect. And this applet is removed when the session is over. Constant remote access capabilities are about the same since both programs allow you to install a program that runs as a service on the client system. This gives you access to that system at any time.

Remote Access Plus is a lot more user friendly and can easily be used by junior IT staff efficiently.

It is also a lot more powerful with a range of additional features and functions

The view is a little blurry. The resolution could be better
