Overall Satisfaction with N-able Take Control

We use Take Control to remotely support our MSP clients, it integrates seamlessly with our RMM platform and allows a quick high performance remote connection to servers and workstations. Biggest improvement over our previous solution is the ability to paste passwords in all scenarios with a dedicated key combo, and with long complex passwords being normal this is a life saver.

Pros

  • Pasting text regardless of remote systems state (i.e UAC)
  • dynamic resize of viewer window, remote resolution always fits on viewer
  • reconnection after reboot
  • file transfer via std key combos

Cons

  • in some scenarios a failed connections will prompt if you want to update proxy details
  • clear text is disabled for while connection is active, this sometimes causes end user concern.
  • We we're able to bundle Take Control into our RMM pricing removing the need to pay for a separate system and maintain its intergration
  • Remote access is only a click away saving our techs time
  • Reliable connection mean issues are resolved without having to 'fix' the remote access first
Bad experiences with ConnectWise platforms in general ruled it out for us at this point in time. To be fair this was not really ConnectWise's fault more the team that set things up poorly leading to significant issues across the system.

TeamViewer had long been our go to, but pricing increases, the inclusion of ads (in a not inexpensive product) is infuriating for some. and ongoing poor business behavior reports in the industry lead us to look elsewhere
