    If you have many remote users in challenging-to-access locations and they use multiple platforms (Windows, Mac, Linux), Zoho Assist is the solution. If you have a limited budget, you'll like Zoho Assist pricing. If you have a large team of IT technicians, you'll appreciate Zoho Assist's concurrent usage licensing.

    The best way to use it is to make calls to the customer's numbers or to receive calls from them. I think the oddest way to use it is to make calls to your colleagues.

    Pros
    Zoho
    • One user's computer screen is black, no task bar and start button, after system crush, Unattended Access help me remote control it and use tools under quick Launch to change system settings and created new account for the user, so she can work few hours later.
    • One user computer need help vpn setup but it is not on Unattended Access list, so I create a temporarily Remote Support session, send the link to him by WhatsApp, after he download and install agent, I can connect and remote control it.
    • Sometimes user computer has randomly happening issue, I will connect it by Zoho Assist, record the remote screen, then will catch the issue and know it's triggered
    • sometimes I use video chat as a meeting tool with users
    • The file transfer by web client is useful for me, most of time is to upload files into user computer when it is not able to access our network drive

    Cons
    Zoho
    • Instructions to the tech and the person receiving support could be more clear.
    • Providing mobile support is still a bit clunky. Interacting with the user's device on the other end is not totally functional.
    • It would be nice to have a PC app to use instead of accessing via the browser.

    Usability
    Zoho
    Zoho Assist has proven to be a highly effective and reliable tool that I use on a daily basis. While the "wake up" feature occasionally fails to respond, this seems more likely due to network connectivity issues rather than a flaw in Zoho Assist itself. On rare occasions, the unattended access installation doesn't appear on the administrator's dashboard, which could potentially be caused by firewall restrictions rather than a problem with the software. Aside from these minor and infrequent issues, the platform has consistently performed well and has become an essential part of my workflow.

    Support Rating
    Zoho
    Support is terrible. Quick to initially respond with the boilerplate "The information provided by you should be sufficient for my development team to analyse this further. I shall also write back to you as soon as I get an update from them on this
    regard." And then you will hear nothing more from them. Chase further and you'll get stock responses such as "Our development team are still looking into this," etc.

    The value for Zoho Assist and the functionality is superior to what is now known as LogMeIn Resolve. I knew it before as Goto Assist. My decision to try out and ultimately purchase Zoho Assist has been a great one for my business. I am glad I heard about Zoho Assist and will continue using them for years to come.

    We just find Zoiper to be the most easiest to use for our needs. It doesn't compare to any other app/program.

    Return on Investment
    Zoho
    • Zoho Assist helped in managing our files and records even if ours is not an Enterprise version.
    • Connectivity is maintained despite having faced some latency issues, thus allowing us to save more time and money.
    • Low maintenance costs, since Zoho Assist is cloud-based
