Likelihood to Recommend I believe Oracle Secure Global Desktop is better used on a larger device such as a desktop or laptop, as the Android platform is a bit confusing when initially introduced to fellow employees who were familiar with the other layout.
Read full review Works well for remote users to connect to their onsite computers. The mobile app works great for technicians. I can't really think of anywhere it isn't appropriate because these days everyone works remotely at some point and even if they have no need to connect to an onsite device when they need assistance the tech can connect quickly and easily.
Read full review Pros Very secure. Simple layout that is easily understood by different levels of experience. My company works with Linux and Windows - Oracle Secure Global Desktop easily operates on both platforms. Read full review Zoho Assist has the diagnostic support remotely handled. Surveys are easily done with Zoho Assist. Functioning in all systems and devices. Recording of remote sessions. Read full review Cons Is not supported on Apple devices. Support on Android - the functionality feels flimsy and the layout isn't as user friendly as I thought it would be in comparison to when it is used on a desktop platform. Initially, when first using the product a year or so ago, I received a lot of complaints of random error messages. Though that problem seems to have been solved in the interim. Read full review Wake on LAN is very unreliable. Zoho Assist service will stop workstations automatically sleeping (unless overridden) - this was done deliberately by their development team as they aware (and unable to fix) their issues with WOL. Support is terrible - very quick response initially - but it can take weeks to get any actual support or solution. I currently have outstanding tickets over 2 months old with no response. File transfer clunky, slow and inconsistent. Clients often show offline when actually available and online. Copy/paste inconsistent (clipboard). Initially slow to connect to clients. Read full review Usability Very easy to use. Tech support is available, but not needed. Our customers are able to download and run the file quickly, an audible tone alerts users as to when the assisted person joins the session. It is functional, aesthetically pleasing, and contains all the capability anyone needs for remote support.
Read full review Support Rating As I said earlier, Zoho Assist is a perfect remote access software and very well meets our needs to solve installation, uninstallation and general configuration issues. The interface is beautiful, clean, user-friendly and works very well on Windows 10. All the support and infrastructure staff approve and enjoy using it
Read full review Alternatives Considered Tarantella gave us a lot of issues, but with Oracle Secure Global Desktop [we got] the huge portfolio of Oracle applications from almost any browser, without the headache of application dependencies, plugins, java etc. My fellow employees like the way Oracle Secure Global Desktop gives us the "feel" of many little desktops but with one machine.
Read full review Cost is one thing that makes Zoho Assist beat the competing software. The security plans from the software ensure files and anything sensitive are well maintained and governed. The interface, the simplicity, and the friendliness of Zoho Assist attracts attention of prospective clients. Zoho Assist successfully make the desktop remote access process effective and at a reduced cost.
Read full review Return on Investment Efficiency is definitely a good description. The easy to use platform allows fellow employees to move through their online apps with ease. Applying new online apps is a lot easier, as we do not have to rely on a central server to pull information. As our client is national, it's good to have quick, reliable cloud access to all sensitive materials without worrying about security issues. Read full review It's the most cost-effective service I've found with device control features, saving money. It's reliable whenever we need it. Without Zoho Assist we would probably not use a screen control program and would waste time trying to find a similar function from a combo of other programs rather than one.
