Mikogo vs. mRemoteNG

Pros Mikogo is well-suited and cost-effective for the small business Simple & well-designed; easy to figure out. Works best for one-on-one client support. Cons No live customer support Free version has limited features (e.g. no invite meeting allowed) Trial version only 14 days

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.

Incentivized

• Inexpensive
• Simple interface
• Menus and prompts were clear

Incentivized

• 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).

Incentivized

• I'd like to be able to record a session easier.

Incentivized

• 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.

Incentivized

Because it is easy to use once installing. The interface is very intuitive and there are help files available for anyone needing further set up assistance. For someone who is currently overwhelmed with managing too many things in too many places, mRemote simplifies this and puts the power back in the administrators hands with their intuitive interface.

I do not have any experience with Mikogo's support as I have never experienced any problem with it.

Never actually needed to use support so have no idea - honestly it's simple enough to use I'd be surprised if anyone really needs support with it.

Mikogo has simple features and is easy to use. If you don't need lots of bells and whistles and just want to screen share or video conference on a small scale Mikogo works best. Join.me & TeamViewer are a bit confusing for the novice small business person. My experience with LogMeIn has been that it's sluggish. GoToMeeting works great but is pricey for the small firm that mainly does one-to-one support/training. I couldn't get Zoom to work right.

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.

Incentivized

• Zero positive impact
• Spend just a little more with products like AnyDesk and get some real ROI
• Short term, the product can be used on a trial basis (or at least it was available as a trial)

Incentivized

• Very easy to hand over connections to new starters.
• Having multiple remote protocols in one place is a massive time saver.
