  • We never skipped a beat when the 2020 lockdown occurred. Everyone was already set up and able to work from home.
  • The cost of Zoho is much less than other remote programs; especially when remote connectivity cost includes up to 100 technicians (we made each user a tech of their own computer).
  • Integrating with other products and receiving a bundle discount is a plus.

Reputable and Consolidated Remote Access Software

  • Zoho Assist made sharing a norm, with no extra costs for business operations.
  • We saved so much, as we disconnected some other expensive remote control software and joined Zoho Assist.
  • The productivity/efficiency of every employee is maintained through supported team work.

Very cheap product which works well enough if you can handle the on-going niggles and issues

  • Allowing staff to work remotely (due to isolation and social distancing) has had a positive impact.
  • However, this positive impact has been offset by the frustration felt by remote staff unable to log in to their client machines (out of hours) due to issues with WOL.
  • This frustration is also felt by admins also unable to remotely support client machines again due to WOL issues.
  • The biggest positive impact is the very low cost of Zoho Assist.

Unbeatable option for startups and small businesses.

  • It's the most cost-effective service I've found with device control features, saving money.
  • It's reliable whenever we need it.
  • Without Zoho Assist we would probably not use a screen control program and would waste time trying to find a similar function from a combo of other programs rather than one.

A perfect support tool to accentuate 1-on-1 help with your clients

  • Postive ROI by replacing a previous remote assist software that was more expensive.
  • Solving client issues within minutes vs. verbal talk-throughs asking for client to do tasks.
  • Cost-friendly for small businesses as it's subscription based.

Support your clients any where any time.

  • Remotely assisting users allows me to save visitor costs and generate income with little effort.
  • Apart from attending remotely, customers also learn and that is very positive. Do not be afraid to teach your clients, they will always be grateful and they will recommend you.
  • Scheduling sessions is also a great help to keep you organized. This gives your business more seriousness.
