Overall Satisfaction with LogMeIn Rescue by GoTo

Being a tech in education, LogMeIn was crucial to help solve IT issues for student once the pandemic hit and we tried to limit our exposure. I was able to solve countless issues from the safety of my couch and in my comfy PJ's.

It is so easy to talk the customer through the install process. That is the key with remote work and working with "non tech" people. Simple, Quick, and Easy!
  • Easy Install
  • Simple URL for install
  • Simple to get started
  • Very powerful once you peek under the hood
  • Having a simple GUI with advanced options
  • Few hoops for users to get started
  • A quick way to escalate privileges once remoted in
  • Less travel to and from district location
  • Feeling safe and being able to problem solve while mainlining social distance
  • Keep students engaged and learning when issues arise
Much better than trying to screen share and direct users to the objective. Much more power tools available, and a much more user friendly experience.

Everything has it's place but LogMeIn does what it does, and it does it well. I'm very pleased with the experience, and I know the end users are too.

LogMeIn is great for supporting the end user in a help desk oriented talk. Even basic user such as young students can follow the simple instructions to set up and install, so we can remote in.

The GUI is pretty straight forward and easy to navigate, but there are many power features once you get more comfortable with the the basics.
