Overall Satisfaction with ISL Light

We have several use cases for remote controlling software but the main objective with ISL Light was to centralize the management with permission controls to reach various clients in an effort to achieve higher grade security while at the same time provide a service to the organization that translates into ease of use. We have production employees relying on remote control to reach production systems, we have superusers needing to provide support to mobile devices in warehouses, CAD-users working from home controlling their job PC at work and an IT team that need remote control capability. With clients ranging from Win XP-Win 11, Android and iOS and the need of unattended access. The ISL Light solution is a cost effective and stable.
  • Ease of use UI
  • Stable remote control
  • Permissions and user management
  • Quick and helpful support
  • Lackluster Mobile device control (Android)
  • Invite another operator to session is awkward to use
  • File transfers method feels dated
  • Software spending for remote control lower than our previous software
  • Better overview of total license usage
  • Simplified user management
Simple UI with ease of use for the end user. ISL Light compability with a range of Windows OS's. Cost effective. Great support and aftersale puts ISL Light at the front of the line.

Did implementation of ISL Light go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy ISL Light again?

Yes

As a basic remote controlling tool you cannot go wrong, using the mouse pointer tools to help the user requesting help is nice. We also do not suffer from lag. As a IT tool used for support it's very well recieved among our techs. It's also very easy for us to provide ISL Light access to clients outside the domain (such as production PCs) by generating installation files for superusers in the organization, these files carry permission-sets and are really easy to use.
