Overall Satisfaction with Zoho Assist

I use Zoho Assist on a daily basis as a reliable remote support tool to connect to users' computers. It allows me to quickly and securely access their systems, identify issues, and perform necessary troubleshooting in real time. Whether it’s resolving technical errors, walking someone through a process, or installing updates, Zoho Assist plays a vital role in helping me provide efficient and seamless support, no matter where the user is located.

Pros

  • Secure remote access
  • Easy Deployment
  • Unattended Access

Cons

  • Easier Copy/Paste from remote computer to the controlling computer would be nice
  • Savings
  • Easier management of remote computers
Zoho Assist has proven to be a highly effective and reliable tool that I use on a daily basis. While the "wake up" feature occasionally fails to respond, this seems more likely due to network connectivity issues rather than a flaw in Zoho Assist itself. On rare occasions, the unattended access installation doesn't appear on the administrator's dashboard, which could potentially be caused by firewall restrictions rather than a problem with the software. Aside from these minor and infrequent issues, the platform has consistently performed well and has become an essential part of my workflow.
After evaluating several remote support solutions, I chose Zoho Assist primarily because it offers the same—if not better—features as its competitors, but at a significantly more affordable price point. The platform includes robust remote access, file transfer, and unattended access capabilities, all of which are essential for my daily operations. Compared to other tools I considered, Zoho Assist delivers excellent performance and reliability without the high cost, making it a smart and cost-effective choice for both individuals and businesses. Its user-friendly interface and consistent updates further reinforced my decision to go with Zoho Assist.

We were previously using another remote support solution, but when their pricing increased significantly, we began looking for alternatives. That’s when we discovered Zoho Assist. It offers the same level of functionality and reliability as our previous provider—at a much more reasonable cost. I have already recommended Zoho Assist to multiple other IT professionals.
