LogMeIn Resolve vs. Red Hat Satellite

LogMeIn is well-suited for scenarios where remote support is needed. For example, a user submits a ticket about having an issue with Microsoft Word being unable to open documents on their PC. Since this is just a software issue on the device, LogMeIn is great for being able to fix the issue. Scenarios, I would say LogMeIn Resolve is not as well-suited for inventory management. But that's only because my organization has a proprietary system to manage assets.

What we really like, is the patching part, os usefulle and easy to manage. Something that we don't use, is the VM deployment from Satellite, since we have only 8 VCD licences and a 30-nodes VMWare cluster, it was pretty hard to manage on which physical node the VMs should run .

• Allows easy, comprehensive access to Apple products via web-based applet. (It does require customer input and cooperation.)
• It allows me to resolve issues remotely, most times within minutes instead of hours, without a physical location visit.
• It allows the customer to view my activity, giving them peace of mind that nothing untoward occurs during my interaction. I also use the record feature so all sessions are recorded, especially on rare occasions when there is an issue or question from the session.

• The user interface is clunky and difficult to use in terms of CRITICAL functions that lie at the core of any remote access solution.
• ctrl + key combos are currently terribly implemented and difficult to use - since this is one of the most common keys used in Windows - this presents MASSIVE usability issues that impede my workflow all day every single day.
• And now - in a recent development - SHIFT + key combos are currently terribly implemented and difficult to use - since this is one of the most common keys used in Windows - this presents MASSIVE usability issues that impede my workflow all day every single day.
• Things like frequently used key combos and shortcuts should work the same via remote access solutions as they do on a hardware keyboard. Anything else is an annoyance and an impediment to workflow and productivity.

• Some things are confusing for new users of the platform
• More dashboards
• A more user friendly GUI

I would say yes, we would definitely renew, everyone likes it in the IT dept, and there are more features we have yet to put to use. I am expanding the Windows update / Endpoint features as I get time, and the remote PowerShell console is unbeatable for me at present when facing remote computers that are not letting create a new remote PSSession.

The interface is clean, intuitive, and easy to navigate. Common actions are easy to locate and exactly where I would expect them to be. Starting a remote session is quick and smooth, which reduces the time users need to wait before receiving support. I also appreciate the single-pane dashboard showing remote access, session details, and device information.

It is part of our daily job, without it, we will have to manually maintain a server with repos, update the repos, it will ask us a lot of time to prepare a new set of repos, and so on. Even if it is a bit tricky to use, and for a newcomer, it needs some time, we still love to use the tool, and we keep it up to date. Curerntly using v6.19.2

Usually available without a problem, although sometimes calls get dropped or users sit in empty meeting rooms while waiting for an admin to arrive, while the call is actually going on.

If you are connected to someone with proper bandwidth, there are no issues at all. With all things, if you connect to someone with dial-up (yes, it still exists), the performance is terrible.

Ive used their tech support a handful of times, and each time they have been able to help me sort out any hiccups or kinks that arise. They have a resourceful knowledge base, and have experts available for training and troubleshooting. I often recommend them to my other coworkers and colleagues because of the ease of use and security

GoToAssist SeeIt was very easy to implement. As long as your techs have a basic understanding of most remote support tools they will be able to understand this product easily.

Although the SolarWinds help desk worked well for our help desk and inventory purposes, it did not provide remote access ability or remote execution of executable files or scripts. We were looking for a product that integrated all of these tasks in order to simplify our day to day IT functions.

Not sure about this question, there a no other solutions that Satellites beside Foreman(free version without support) Are you talking about Red Hat in general ? If it is about RH, well, we like the support we have, all the tools available. We used to have a TAM, which as very interesting, but the new cost to have was way to high... so we deciced to let it go.

• LogMeIn Resolve has increased productivity for our support teams with the addition of camera share. Not only are we able to remote into workstations, but with camera share we can utilize end user and customer phones to visually see physical setups to troubleshoot some situations on the fly.
• Unattended support now requires the agent to enter in a signature key as an extra layer of security before accessing a device, which further improves the safety of all devices registered for unattended.

• We have been able to automate the update process to not require after-hours monitoring.
• Centralizing updates has greatly reduced the overall time servers are down and processing their individual updates.
• We are able to bring our own RPM packages in and stage them in the same deployment model as official Red Hat packages.
