Overall Satisfaction with LogMeIn Rescue

We use LogMeIn Rescue for one of our clients. The client's servers and database are not accessible outside their network, so we use LogMeIn Rescue to log into their network to access their systems to work on. It is being used across their organization when users work outside the office. It solves the problem of providing accessibility outside the office but at the same time keeping the systems secure by not allowing direct access outside the network.
  • LogMeIn Rescue helps connecting to a remote desktop.
  • It allows file transfer from an external machine to a machine in the secured network
  • Using LogMeIn Rescue the command prompt of the remote system can be accessed
  • I have been using LogMeIn Rescue for the past 2 years and am happy with it. The only scope of improvement I can think of is the speed of connection. I have noticed Windows Remote Desktop connects to the system faster than LogMeIn Rescue.
  • We use LogMeIn Rescue for connecting to our client machines. Our team work from home. Without LogMeIn Rescue it would not be possible to work on this particular project.
LogMeIn Rescue is a more secure way to connect to the remote system. If a remote desktop is not required but we only need to do a file transfer, the file transfer feature can be used without connecting to the remote session.
LogMeIn Rescue is well suited for easy access into a secure network when the user is in a remote location. e.g. if an employee is working from home, they can still access their office computer or servers.
