SolarWinds - highly recommended
We use SolarWinds Dameware Remote Everywhere (DRE) for our incident analysis and troubleshooting the alerts, incidents and tasks. It very fast and user friendly. We receive the output very easily. Even if we take remote via virtual network it is very fast and does not hang just like any other software's. Highly appreciated.
- Virtual network
- As a ticketing tool
- Remote access everywhere
- Sometimes the dashboard will be very small, and it does not show all the alert list.
- I have not found any other disadvantage of this
- NA

Dameware Remote Everywhere has been GREAT!!!
We use Dameware Remote Everywhere to connect to remote users in our network, or while they work away from the office. During this process, sometimes we need to transfer files to the remote systems.
- remote assistance
- internet based remote assistance
- file transfer within the aplication
- chat messaging with the user
- remote installation without admin credentials - then allow admin to perform full install once connected
- AD Deployment of application
- grouping of computers for staff that are enabled as a user

We use Dameware Remote Everywhere to support remote clients in both unattended modes as well as on-demand. This product addresses the need for remote support when users are either on the road or quarantined due to Covid-19. Unattended access is usually set up on machines for remote maintenance and monitoring to make support more efficient especially in time-sensitive situations.
- Unattended remote access
- Ability to quickly and easily distribute the remote software client
- Allows users a painless way to connect with tech support for a myriad of issues
- Connectivity to a helpdesk/knowledgebase would be nice feature so users can do self-help
- Offering a branded version of the client/agent would be a nice touch for businesses
- A web-only version of the technician console for remote support would be a nice feature

Easy to use, intuitive, and stable
We mostly use it on the "IT" side of things. Technically though, anyone who needs to physically remote into a machine can get access and use SolarWinds DRE.
- Maintains session information for multiple reconnects
- Supports multiple authentication types
- Multiple options for connecting (RDP, MRC Viewer, VNC Viewer, etc.)
- Cannot multi-select saved hosts (for mass deletion)
- Sometimes randomly seems to "reset" saved connections

Easily and Quickly Manage Users and Computers!
DRE is being used by the entire organization. I use DRE on all machines to manage and assist users, along with managing servers and VMs. DRE is helping greatly in these new days of heavy remote working.
- Manage users remotely.
- Manage computers remotely.
- Names of computers in DRE should mirror the actual computer name in AD and not have nicknames. We adjust laptop and desktop names according to their location. If the DRE name isn't manually updated, it can make a lot of confusion.
SolarWinds Dameware Remote Everywhere (DRE) is being used to support all users when they are away from the office. It's also utilized when I'm away from the office and need to assist a user.
- Easy installation for the users.
- Easy to use from a support role.
- Nothing. I'm very happy with SolarWinds Dameware Remote Everywhere (DRE).

We have devices throughout North and South America, so after researching several options we found that Dameware Remote Everywhere was the best solution for us. We can manage devices that are outside of our domain which is very helpful since right now during the COVID-19 pandemic a lot of our users are working remotely, so we are still able to help them with DRE.
- Works great with devices that are outside of the organization's network.
- Console can be used via the app or web based.
- DRE works with Windows, MAC, and Linux.
- Maybe have the capability of working on mobile devices.

Great Solution
We use Dameware Remote Everywhere to support our customers remotely and it helps us drive down costs but increase response times. We use this fantastic program not only to support our customers but as a tool to assist each other for the ones in the field as well. Program is great when it comes to giving a 3rd party an option into a system as well to provide additional support when need.
- Quick Response Time - Don't have to drive to customer sites as frequently for small issues.
- Easy to use and install.
- Rich Features - Command Line behind the scenes, FTP Uploads, etc.
- We have found it can be intensive memory usage on systems.
- Not a huge fan of the End-User connections using Google Chrome Extensions, a little complex for some users.
We use it company wide as our Samanage helpdesk (another SolarWinds product) integrates nicely with it.
- The ability to send ad hoc links to a Samanage ticket allows users to be helped even if they're on their home computer and need assistance logging into our VPN was essential for us in the COVID-19 transition to an at home workforce!
- The methods of deployment are nice and easily managed through GPO.
- The interface of seeing waiting sessions and options to collaborate with other technicians is nice and user friendly.
- When the end user doesn't have admin rights (most don't on work PCs or within VDI) and they click to run the downloaded exe given to them from the helpdesk ticket, the exe isn't smart enough to realize there's already an agent installed (which DOES allow admin rights) so what ends up happening is the technician becomes hampered and unable to even see the screen when admin rights are requested forcing us to adopt an ever changing password tempadmin user that we give to the end users (but even then we can't see what they're seeing and our session goes into an infinite loop). DRE is supposed to request and even give credentials for admin access but it simply doesn't work in practice when within a VDI environment.
- I'd like the ability for all technicians to be logged in even if we don't have the licenses, we pay for concurrent sessions not users, it shouldn't require us to leave the application totally logged off, that's silly.
- Given the robustness of the integration with the Samanage helpdesk (saves session history so we know there was a technician who helped that ticket, etc) we really wish it was smart enough in the inventory integration to know what agents already exist and are operating and allow us to give a link to leverage that user's agent on the known inventory item, like if there was a dropdown in Samange for known inventory PCs associated with that user and based on the user's ticket see which have the agent installed allowing our technicians to simply click to connect to that rather than putting our user through downloading and running an exe.
- An interface showing all known inventory items akin to how TeamViewer does it with their address book would alleviate some unknowns and allow for better management of unattended remote access needs rather than us hunting for it and/or resorting to other means of access not DRE (like vCenter spying on a session which messes up users with multiple monitors, RDP which takes over user sessions with our own, or VNC which doesn't work through the internet).

Solarwinds DRE. Great for the new normal.
We are currently using it in the IT department to address remote work support. This has been a critical item for the past couple of months and has filled in a gap in support.
- Ease of use.
- Well documented and supported.
- No need for user interaction.
- Can be jittery depending on connection.
- Generic installer creation is not straightforward.
SolarWinds Dameware Remote Everywhere is a remote access software used exclusively in our organization. It provides secure remote access for our technology team to access servers and workstations in all of our locations securely. SolarWinds Dameware Remote Everywhere allows us to disable the insecure RDP protocol on our network, and also provides central administration and control to log and record who is using it, and what systems are being remoted to.
- Central administration and control of users and permissions
- Secure access to Windows-based machines using the default or custom ports
- SolarWinds Dameware Remote Everywhere is a robust software package that allows access to all systems. There is nothing I currently feel it could do better.
Dameware Remote helps us stay plugged into issues with our hosts throughout the region/network. When we need to address a problem or issue we can remote into any machine necessary. This allows our Directors and regional employees to support sites within their region. Without this we'd be forced to spend extra time and money traveling and supporting these facilities.
- Allow remote access to important systems.
- Securely setup connections to host.
- The size of the remote access screen is sometimes small.
- Ability to chat with users on the connected host could be better.

Lives up to its name!
This software is being used by the IT department to support them in house companies within the organization as well as 3 satellite office off-network. Dameware Remote Everywhere allows us to seamlessly connect to endpoints no matter where they are as long as the user has a network connection.
- Connect to a user no matter if they are on or off-network.
- Ability to run PowerShell remotely through the client.
- File transferring through the client.
- Full visibility of system info with intruding onto the user's computer and impact their productivity.
- It can have issues reconnecting if the connection is lost.
- Changing a computer name does not automatically change the name associated with the remote agent client.
- Small inconsistencies, sometimes the background changes to black, sometimes it doesn't.
