Overall Satisfaction with Zoho Assist

As a sole proprietor LLC, the only employees I have are me, myself, and I. Because of this, it is often more efficient to connect with my clients that I need to service remotely. This is where Zoho Assist comes in to play for my business. I have used other remote support software programs before, but for the cost I pay for Zoho Assist, I am able to service more customers than I could with the competitors. Plus, it works on Windows, Mac, Linux, and even some mobile devices, so I can troubleshoot a lot more devices than I could before. All in all, I have been extremely pleased with Zoho Assist, and I highly recommend it to everyone that has a need for remote support. I primarily use the Unattended Access for my clients, and it works like a champ.

Pros

  • Unattended Access
  • One time support sessions
  • Being able to connect without the need to drive to my client
  • More flexibility in scheduling appointments.

Cons

  • Occassionally, it will say that it is not online, even though it is. This is rare.
  • Dealing with multiple monitors is sometimes troubling to handle.
  • Copying and pasting from my machine to the remote machine doesn't always work seamlessly.
  • Saves gas expense
  • Helps me with initial troubleshooting of the issue
  • I am able to help clients further away than my drive-able area.
The system works. It is well designed and implemented. If the product didn't work, I wouldn't waste my time or my resources on it, but it does. When I connect to a system, it is as if I am at my clients location, sitting at their keyboard. It just works.
The value for Zoho Assist and the functionality is superior to what is now known as LogMeIn Resolve. I knew it before as Goto Assist. My decision to try out and ultimately purchase Zoho Assist has been a great one for my business. I am glad I heard about Zoho Assist and will continue using them for years to come.

I've got a full day, and I get a call from a client. My email isn't working. I can't get Outlook to stay running. It opens and then shuts down. I am about to end the day, but before I shut down my laptop, I'm able to remote into my client's computer, check out his Outlook, and try some things. In this case, I do need to visit the client, but I know already that there are some things that I've tried already so it will reduce the amount of time I need to spend at their location.
