LogMeIn Rescue has more features for Remote Sharing, Remote Control as compared to Microsoft Teams. We use Microsoft Teams in our organization as a collaboration tool. However, for fulfilling service requests and issues, our support team uses LogMeIn Rescue. The Remote Sharing …
LogMeIn Rescue by GoTo options are better positioned from others. Also the option to share files, is better to be run in another window, but reflected on main screen. The chat option is my favorite, as it is run by the side of the remote window, not like AnyDesk, which is not …
LogMeIn Rescue was definitely more rudimentary than Teams. The fact that Teams already helps to coordinate meetings and organize my calendar allows for Teams to be an all-in-one tool to allow for proper screen sharing and remote capabilities with the handy mic tool. …
Bomgar does a better job with Mac machines. When a remote connection freezes on LMi, we will switch to bomgar. Bomgar also allows monitoring of customer support systems where LMI does not.
Skype has very poor connection quality and lags a lot. Zoom does not provides automatic reconnection after a reboot. Both the products do not allow to switch between monitors. TeamViewer can do everything LogMeIn can do and some more but it requires the licensed software to be …
Have used them because some people use them to connect to our equipment,but I don't feel confident about it. Specially because of vulnerabilities. We are inside an University campus and all other tools are forbidden.
UI (user interface) is pretty easy to use, you can use rescue from a desktop version or the web when others such as dameware you needed to have the software installed and the affected user needed to be on VPN, so you could take over their system. TeamViewer is good but with …
SolarWinds Dameware is the cheaper option by far and had the ability to be remotely deployed, but it was limited to PCs and users within our domain. Rescue allows us to connect to our systems that are in locations that are off our primary domain and gives us a secure …

Chose LogMeIn Rescue
Teams does not handle UAC prompts or reboots well. Rescue allows to get around this issue as well as being able to run reports, scripts, and automatically reconnect on reboot. Teams also has limited sharing capabilities and we needed a tool that also supported mobile phones …
for restarts Logmein is better for speed teams is better, so if you want to get a fast session teams scores higher for deep dive sessions Logmein is great also like the interface for seeing logs on Logmein and stopping processes from running easily and quick. File transfer is …
Teams works great for larger meetings but I find it more difficult to control the remote machine compared to LogMeIn Rescue. Teams does integrate with Office Outlook more effectively. GoToAssist works well but some users struggle to connect and the links are much longer, …
We find that LogMeIn Rescue is a much more stable platform with little or no UAC issues that may have caused problems with other similar products. When combined with the unattended installer, it provides a seamless support system, allowing us to work on systems remotely …
TeamViewer allows for connecting without customer interaction. This allows for seamless remote troubleshooting in a comparable fashion to LogMeIn Rescue. It is better in a way where I don't have to have the customer available to troubleshoot the issue.
LogMeIn works better than Teams I think it works the same as GoTo Meeting and TeamViewer. Connectwise and Dameware works the best for me even over LogMeIn Rescue but this company doesn't use these products. I still believe LogMeIn is a good product and tool to have to help …
Compared to competitors, Rescue excels in the speed of connection and file transfers it offers. However, it's management and organization leaves much to be desired.
This is similar to Skype, but much more robust. You can do everything you could with Skype on Teams, and more. We were already looking into Teams when Microsoft announced it but they made the decision to stop supporting Skype and switch over to Teams. We were going to make the …
Most of the time it is great. Sometimes with iPads it is not great or too expensive for orgs to pay for an option to allow iPads to be logged into along with computers and windows computer tablets. When needing to view something a client is talking about. It is great to use login to understand the issue and possibly fix any issues we need.
It's amazing as a daily driver for team communication, and document search/store. Also, if you're doing a lot of LONG meetings and have trouble remembering details, the AI summarization is amazing and convenient. It just works. I'm not saying I always do this, of course, but if I need to 'skim' instead of really digging into every detail from a meeting, the AI-generated summary is generally good enough that I can get away with it.
The webinars feature has some missing functionally such as the ability for all users to use the Q&A feature (only those with a Microsoft Teams account can use it now), the ability to upload documents for attendees to easily access and download, and the ability for presenters and organizers to easily chat amongst themselves throughout the webinar.
The "Channels" organization hierarchy could be more clear. If you have several channels set up, it can get clunky and hard to find the specific channel you are looking for.
The MS Planner tool lacks functionality and organization. You cannot assign more than one person to a task and it's confusing when you try to share tasks with people - it would be nice if they were automatically added to someone's calendar.
It may not be used often in our smaller organization but it really is the only option with a remote workforce. We do not want to learn a new product so it is much better to keep with what we know works well and our staff is used to utilizing
Microsoft Teams is included with our Office 365 subscription and we have no intention of migrating off of Office 365 and Microsoft products. Since Microsoft Teams is included for free with our Office 365 subscription, and since we enjoy all the features, benefits, and functionality, there is no question that our team will continue to use the product
I believe that LogMeIn Rescue is extremely suitable for users of all levels of technical prowess. The user interaction is minimal, and the agent is available to take over at every step of the way. From problem resolution to training, LogMeIn Rescue can take care of it all. LogMeIn Rescue makes the user support process easier and faster so the user can have the issues resolved in a timely manner.
If you have the full Microsoft Office suite, it works really well because it's integrated well within its ecosystem, but if not, it can be annoying because it tries to open a shared file in the web versions of the file equivalents. The web version is also a bit slow, and the login is very difficult to handle if you have multiple Microsoft or Outlook accounts.
I'd say support for LogMeIn is ideal because I haven't ever been in a situation where additional support was necessary. The program runs so efficiently and simply that nothing was needed beyond initial training that was provided by my company. I am saying this as a user that strictly uses the technician console
The overall support provided by Microsoft for Microsoft Teams has been quite good but there is still some room for improvements. Microsoft needs to proactively work on fixing the open bugs in order to provide a seamless experience to the users. But over the service and experience provided by the Microsoft team have been quite satisfactory.
Truth be told, Rescue is the first and so far only solution from LogMeIn I started to use. However since it offers a wide range of tools specifically designed for remote support, it is highly effective for resolving technical issues. Additionally, Rescue provides various connection methods and customizable interfaces, allowing support teams like mine to tailor the experience to specific needs.
Microsoft Teams offers a much more integrated experience between their chat and video call function compared to Google Chat and Slack. Both other tools are much better for internal communications are they have simpler UI without other features. Whereas Microsoft Teams can be used for more critical conversations, particularly between external companies, and has been very useful in sales conversations which is what we chose it for when speaking to companies that work exclusively through Microsoft.
Honestly, this tool is worth every penny. Yes, it's not free and you pay for the quality of services and the license. But the ROI and the benefits are all there. Also, the renewal, negotiation, and contract terms are all very well explained by our Microsoft account manager, and she's a charm.
I used Skype for Business to take calls, hold conferences, and provide remote assistance to users. Microsoft Teams, on the other hand, is superior to Skype for Business in my opinion. My job entails a lot of screen sharing.
It helps us to increase our remote resolution from offshore personnel, so you can redeploy the activity of a local resource at your facility to specifically address more of the hardware or physical IT problems.
Increase FCR "First Call Resolution" if you have this within your SLA
Improve end user experience, Non IT personnel doesn't have to struggle explaining an issue, it makes it very easy once you get on the affected user computer.
Personally, I would say that by using Microsoft Teams, it upped my collaboration with my colleagues by around 50% or around more than half of what I usually did prior to using it.
I had 100% show rate and attendance on all of my meetings in the past 6 months.
If I may add, I also have been chattier & collaborative towards my colleagues in past 3 months particularly the month of December when we had huge traffic at work. I would estimate this behavior to have been increased by around 60% than what I usually incur during normal operating days.
