Splashtop Security

We use secure remote access across the world - knowing that the computer access is not hackable via both good programming as well as authentication and encryption. We wouldn't use it if it wasn't secure.

Splashtop Security

All of the security features including verification, two-factor auth, and encryption are top-notch and above the industry standard. I especially like the email double-checking when logging in from an unknown or previously unseen device.

Splashtop Security

While we don't use Splashtop for remote support, it perfectly meets our remote access needs. The fact that it supports MFA and includes encryption set it above most competitors. And honestly, the cost is quite reasonable given the featureset, which again sets it will above the competition.

Onboarding with Splashtop

Onboarding was totally straightforward. Getting user data entered into the dashboard was clear and easy. Deploying the required components to remote staff was, again, clear and easy. We did a test deploy with 5 users that took less than an hour to set up. Once purchased, it was probably another …

I find Splashtop security is understandable and allows fairly easy use from my perspective. I don't use 2-factor verification anywhere I don't have to. The ability to remotely boot a computer and reconnect automatically saves a lot of time in my configuring of remote computers. I don't get too …

Onboarding with Splashtop

I suppose our onboarding was good in that there were no hiccups. Our RMM automatically installs it on our endpoints and it has just worked for the most part. It's basically a black box since it is included and we are just along for the ride. That said, there have been no issues thus far with the …

Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We use Splashtop SOS to remotely support our patient education tablets. Our tablets are used in hospitals and outpatient clinics. Security is a top priority. We had lots of problems finding a vendor with a solution that would work on a majority of Android tablets. Other options we looked at either were not full feature or were cost-prohibitive for a large number of devices. Splashtop SOS solved all of our problems.
Pros and Cons
  • Low cost.
  • Secure.
  • Easy to use.
  • None.
Likelihood to Recommend
Splashtop SOS is a great tool to provide remote support to users. We use it mostly to support Android devices. It works great!

Return on Investment
  • We reduced our remote support software cost substantially.
  • We are able to provide better remote support to our end-users.
Support Rating
10
We have not had the need to connect with someone from Splashtop to resolve any issue.
Splashtop Security
We use Splashtop to remotely support Android tablets in a healthcare setting. Having end-to-end encryption is important. Having user-initiated support is important as well.
Onboarding with Splashtop
We were able to get up and running in a few minutes with Splashtop. The process was very simple.
Products Replaced
Yes
We tried a few other remote support tools like Teamview. Splashtop worked the best for our team and budget.
Alternatives Considered
Simply put, Splashtop SOS works. The remote control feature of SOTI's MobiControl just didn't work for us. We spent countless hours working with SOTI to get additional apps to support remote control for various Lenovo tablets. It was a huge burden and it just didn't work. TeamViewer was cost-prohibitive when compared to Splashtop SOS. Splashtop SOS is much easier to use and roll out.

Likelihood to Renew
10
Splashtop Enterprise is not an integral part of our support system. We will renew our subscription and continue to use the program.
Key Differentiators
  • Price
  • Product Usability
Paying by technician licenses is more important for us than client device licenses. One technician can support hundreds of remote tablets. We are a small company, so we wanted and budget-friendly solution that would not require a lot of time or resources to deploy and manage.
Evaluation Lessons Learned
If we were to do this all over again, we would hopefully start with Splashtop. We evaluated a few other options before we found Splashtop.

Implementation Rating

If you are supporting remote tablets with an MDM, you need to enable the "screen capture" via the MDM.

Ease of Splashtop Training
Yes, the product is easy to learn without training.
