  • Remote access
  • Quick insight into uptime of particular machine
  • Software-based VPN into client network
  • It's not a true RMM and is missing some key functionality in that realm while it claims to be one
  • Compared to a true RMM, it's too costly to deploy across an entire organization

  • unattended remote access
  • simple login
  • simple file transfer
  • reasonably priced
  • sometimes after an update, the unattended access stops working on Macs, and user intervention is required, which is sometimes very difficult to walk a user through allowing 3 or 4 different processes from Mac settings
  • other than that, no negatives, as far as my usage

  • Fast remote access, no delay and no problem with computers with two or more screens
  • You can draw on the user's screen, lock the keyboard and mouse, and all of it is software that has logs for auditing
  • Central, also provides silent installation and helps with scripting for GPO enforcement which is a plus when working with multiple users
  • Lists all the computers in your domain that have the tool installed, just click on the desired computer to connect
  • Can remotely access the computer without the user noticing (hidden)
  • It could pull up the user's login in addition to the hostname
  • Employee shortcuts like "win+r", "Ctrl+shitf+dell", on the computer that is connected remotely. This is needed
  • Being able to minimize the bar in the top corner of the screen that is left when you are connected to a remote computer

  • real time monitoring of devices up-status
  • The speed of the software
  • Interface is very clean and easy to navigate
  • Initial setup is very simple
  • Pricing structure is a bit confusing - there are various add-ons that can seriously increase your cost
  • More integrations with software such as Antivirus vendors would be nice
  • No Chromebook client at all, and isn't as good with Mac's either
  • You can only have 1 technician on a PC at a time

  • Execute powershell commands remotely
  • Software deployment
  • Some agent remote deployment tool, without having to apply via GPO and wait for the user to restart the computer. For example I scan an IP range, enter an administrator login and password and the agent installation is done

  • Excellent Remote Tool
  • End to End Managing the asset history/Inventory
  • Help in Bulk Installation/Uninstallation and pushing scheduled patches/updates
  • Complex in using scripts to automate few things like poweroff etc
  • If any system is in Shutdown mode, it will not show correctly colour whether it is in live or in shutdown state. We have to manually check by getting inside.
  • When we roll few security rules/policies/permissions, it says it was applied but when we check if wasn't the case. We need to do multiple times and cross check whether it is applied

  • Allows us to troubleshoot issues that are out of our scope of expertise
  • Is easy to navigate
