Overall Satisfaction with ConnectWise Control (formerly ScreenConnect)

We used it to remotely assist and troubleshoot user issues. It allowed us to shorten the response time to the issue.
  • The Remote Terminal feature was amazing, it gave us the ability to remotely run scripts and find info we needed without interrupting the user.
  • The responsiveness of the remote console is quick and helps in troubleshooting.
  • Deployment on Mac and Linux works, but it is not as fluid and easily done as Windows.
  • It allows us to respond more quickly to users issues, giving us a better user experience.
  • The ability to troubleshoot with the remote terminal has saved us from interrupting users for smaller tasks.
There's no comparison. ConnectWise Control is the clear winner. The interface is much more intuitive and easy to use.

Would you buy ConnectWise ScreenConnect again?

Yes

The value it provides is just through the roof. I have very few complaints with the software, and overall it is one of those platforms "that just works." Which is extremely hard to find in the plethora of software platforms offered today.
Their support team has always been very responsive and easy to work with.
Whenever you need remote access to users' computers for troubleshooting / help desk support, ConnectWise Control is a great contender.
