We replaced Kaseya. We were not using most of the features of Kaseya, and it was very costly. Additionally it would have been more expensive to deploy Kaseya agents to our customers, and the equipment sell to them and support. While Kaseya had lots of functionality, it was a poor fit for us (regarding the ROI). I had to give up a few features, but I can't honestly remember what they were, so obviously they weren't that important to me. ConnectWise Control is a much better fit for our use-cases. We have few technicians, a lot of agents deployed on a lot of remote computers, and few customer support sessions. We normally receive a phone call from a customer and connect in using the agent. The customer can go about their business and we'll report back (email or phone call) to the customer when the problem has been resolved.

RDP - and nothing -- there was no real product in place outside of walking to a workstation. Connectwise control allowed us to take control a workstation easily. saves a lot of time. issues that took 10 - 15 minutes (password reset, or i can't print) now can be resolved with a few clicks

We were previously using LogMeIn as our screen sharing solution. We looked for an alternative solution which would provide additional functionality and a more cost effective solution for scaling our usage as our needs grew and as our team increased in size over time.

LogMeIn - TOO EXPENSIVE - DOES NOT WORK - Waste of time and mental stamina. They arrogantly increased their price 4 fold this past year.
LogMein tries to be the all-inclusive product. It has a web based console called LogMeIn Central. Has lots of pretty colors and icons that are worthless.
Antivirus status - A little shield that represents the antivirus status. However, it does not recognize the latest professional full paid versions of AVG (it mistakenly says your machine is running Windows Defender). For each machine, it has a nice button for you to press "update antivirus status" - as if that is something you want to do manually. So you press it - it spins around for quite some time (like that price is right wheel) - and does NOTHING!
Windows updates management - also worthless. You definitely want all of the optional updates installed, right? NOT. There's no way to disable updates as a policy. You can't "hide" updates. Also a pretty button for your to manually update - Which also does NOTHING.

ScreenConnect replaced LogMeIn. This came about as my organization was facing another price increase from LogMeIn and couldn't justify the cost any longer. Another reason was that LogMeIn conflicted with another product (Remotely Anywhere) that was used in the organization which surprisingly was also made by LogMeIn. In the end before using ScreenConnect in-depth feature for feature matched up with LogMeIn and came in at a much better price.

We used LogMe in before using ScreenConnect and have found a bigger cost savings with ScreenConnect. The ability of screen connect to be used from anywhere coupled with granular permission, gave us the confidence to switch and feel good in our investment.

ScreenConnect replaced RemotePC when I finally decided it was time to get a paid remote support software. The RemotePC paid version was no better than their free option when it came to quality and the price was not very competitive with much better offerings. GoToAssist was my first choice for remote support software but the cost was more that I was willing to spend compared to that of ScreenConnect which is also a great product.
