Overall Satisfaction with LogMeIn Rescue by GoTo

I currently use LogMeIn Rescue by GoTo to support our users IT related issues. LogMeIn Rescue by GoTo is a godsent when it comes to remedying technical issues and has many great features. I would like to see some upgrades for better access to remoting into mobile devices, since the last time But short of that LogMeIn Rescue by GoTo is truly an asset in the technology world!
  • Love that you can remote into mobile devices (cellphones)
  • Love the tech collaboration of sharing sessions
  • Also the file transfer aspect
  • And remote starting of users PC and the ability to see PC prior to them logging in
  • The ability for remoting into mobile devices many features within do not work once connected to users cell or tablet, mainly apple devices, even with user granting access.
  • Would like to not have to go through web to sign in (2 Step process)prefer to just use desktop ver. to login but when my company started using SSO we had to sign in via web. Now we no longer use SSO but LogMeIn Rescue by GoTo desktop still reverts back to making us sign in via web
  • No negative that I know of or can see
LogMeIn Rescue by GoTo is very suitable for both the user and tech, it's simplicity allows for even the most non-technical person to use. Case and Point... If I am able to walk my 75 yr old non technically challenged mother through the steps to allow me to connect, then the tool is very streamlined!
Because of it's various user prompts for access to their PC I do not see a security issue
Because without the users authorization I do not have the ability to remote in. Also the fact it lets the user know the name of tech remoting in
  • SolarWinds Dameware Remote Everywhere (DRE) and Microsoft Remote Desktop Connection Manager (RDCMan)
LogMeIn Rescue by GoTo allows for more features and simplicity
