Likelihood to Recommend 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.
Read full review I think for ANY environment it's worth taking it out for a test drive. It's very powerful, especially when using the agent to connect to sessions where the end user doesn't need admin rights but when not in a VDI environment it likely would perform better with its built in functionality to ask for elevation. It is really powerful, even with the ability to run command line scripts without the user seeing (kind of a built in psexec) and it does work with Mac and Linux to some degree too so it really is worth trying out regardless of your environment. It may be just what you're looking for and the sales folks at DRE are not pushy at all, at least in my experience, and give great advice even at the expense of selling less licenses!
Read full review Pros 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.

The methods of deployment are nice and easily managed through GPO. The interface of seeing waiting sessions and options to collaborate with other technicians is nice and user friendly. Read full review Cons 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. Read full review Connectivity to a helpdesk/knowledgebase would be nice feature so users can do self-help Offering a branded version of the client/agent would be a nice touch for businesses A web-only version of the technician console for remote support would be a nice feature Read full review Likelihood to Renew It works great
Read full review Usability 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

Read full review Support Rating 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.
Read full review SolarWinds Dameware Remote Everywhere is an easy to use software package. The manuals are easy to understand, and the installation is simple and straightforward. The Maintenance and support costs are relatively reasonable, and we maintain support and maintenance strictly for the upgrades rather than support. Over the years, SolarWinds has released numerous feature enhancements to the software package, making SolarWinds Dameware Remote Everywhere indispensable on our network.
Read full review Implementation Rating 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
Read full review Alternatives Considered 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.
Read full review We basically selected this for our one of the SolarWinds Project. In that we needed to take remote session and screensharing and do the analysis and troubleshooting. In our initial analysis itself we got the excellent result, and it was too quick. We were very much inspired from this. Later on, we started using SolarWinds Dameware Remote Everywhere (DRE) for almost all the projects of SolarWinds. Highly appreciated, thanks team.
