Overall Satisfaction with ConnectWise Control (formerly ScreenConnect)

I've used ControlWise Control as a tool for remote support and access for things like repairing computers or dealing with colleagues' issues when I was not around and managing machines for outside projects. I've had some experience with online seminars, meetings, and presentations as well. It has successfully addressed all issues that have occurred at work while I was out of the office.
  • Easy and smooth connectivity
  • Compatibility with almost any browser
  • Session type filtering options
  • Screen resize especially when working with a couple of monitors at the office
  • The microphone/speakers can take a bit to be arranged, sometimes blocking 2-directional communication
  • Odd chat window placement
  • Remote access generally has supported fast solutions without the need for your physical presence when the issue can be dealt with remotely.
We initially chose TeamViewer but after some considerations regarding the price and attributes, ConnectWise was the final choice.
The system would be proved very helpful in cases where customer service is required between agents and clients. It is very easy to instruct clients to connect remotely simply by pointing them to the website. There they can just start a new session and connect instantly without any obstacles. Makes communication very easy, fast and manageable.
