Overall Satisfaction with HelpWire

I'm a freelance tech specialist and A companay Account Manager providing support to several small businesses, helping clients with remote setup, installation, and software configuration on both Windows and Mac systems. Since most of my clients don't have a tech background, it's important for me to use remote desktop software that's easy to set up and doesn't involve complex connection steps. HelpWire has been the perfect choice for this. I can now quickly offer remote support without confusion, saving time and frustration for both me and my clients, all I need to do is send them a link

Pros

  • Available for every budget, as it free for commercial use, so I can save my expenses
  • Simple initiation of sessions, easy to explain to my clients how to use the app
  • Handy file transfer option, so I can copy and paste the necessary files

Cons

  • Lack of mobile support: sometimes it would be handier for me to assist from my phone
  • No screen recording feature

HelpWire has been really great for me. It’s easy to use, works fast, and the chat helps a lot when talking to clients. And it’s free, which is awesome. I’d definitely recommend it to anyone who needs remote support.
I previously used AnyDesk, but I became concerned due to recent reports linking it to support scams that misuse its features for unauthorized access. Additionally, I experienced occasional crashes while using the application.
