  • Cost-wise, ConnectWise Control is much more competitive than other options that we have looked at.
  • While it is still in early stages, it seems giving HR and our training team access will reduce the startup time for our new remote employees.
  • The remote session speed is slightly faster in ConnectWise Control than the competitors, especially when using low quality mode.

  • We used to have ScreenConnect locally installed on a server. We moved to the cloud-hosted version of ConnectWise, and it was very easy to transition. The tech department is able to provide quick and reliable to support to users as long as they have an internet connection, regardless of where they are.

  • Quite simply our business could not function without a form of remote control software. Control has done an amazing job at filling a core foundation pillar of our business model as an MSP, having some clients in very remote destinations, we can still service them through the use of Control.
  • We pay per technician for an unlimited number of endpoints, and this pricing model has served us very admirably. As a smaller startup MSP, the cost of paying per endpoint would only serve to hurt our growth. Being able to pay a flat rate based on staffing is very desirable.
  • The whole experience using Control is polished and speedy. I couldn't imaging going back to a slower solution, the value Control brings is palpable in our business model.

  • Increase in efficiency due to more users having access to the same tools instead of one centralized user.
  • Decreased software costs with the ability to share the same tools.
  • Easier management of database systems: less potential for bad data when working from one dataset instead of multiple distinct copies of the same data.

  • Cost of the application is significantly more transparent than competing products
  • Simplicity from the end user's perspective has been fantastic and often complimented
  • Access to our staff even behind extraordinarily restrictive internet access filters imposed by clients has been remarkably painless

  • The biggest positive impact has been to return a down office to work in a matter of minutes rather than hours or days where drive time and schedule conflicts hamper coordinating onsite troubleshooting.
  • Quick and efficient resolution of issues or just office changes that office staff or management require or request, even when offsite at a different customer.

  • The floating license model makes it cost effective to manage many endpoints with many technicians who aren't necessarily working at the same time.
  • The extra layer of access to virtual servers (on top of vsphere) gives extra piece of mind for being able to fix problems quickly.

  • Increased efficiency, even if it just saves a 10-minute walk for a 5-minute support session, that's huge.
  • Decreased time of resolution of issues means happier clients.
  • Ability to easily check on or resolve issues after hours, when other employees do not need to access their computers.
