Find out what your peers are saying about TeamViewer, Microsoft, Citrix and others in Remote Access."It is very stable. It adjusts to bandwidth very well."
"For people whose computers we maintain, we can have those computers on file. Without having somebody to invite us, we can actually log in automatically, and that’s unlimited."
"I will say 100% in five years, I do not think we have had to use technical support for anything."
"it's very easy to use, it's very efficient."
"It works with different operating systems, I can connect to a PC or Mac."
"It has a feature that, when you take over the machine, you can get into the system administrator level. We’re able to tweak things on the machine as if we’re sitting there."
"Our favorite feature is being able to diagnose customers' problems by seeing them on the screen, rather than just over the phone."
"Has an easy way to remote on to a remote computer without having prior access to it."
"The most valuable features are that it is consistently low profile and consistently works without hiccups or headaches."
"Their ability to support mobile has been really problematic. I've seen other products that have done a better job in supporting mobile products. LogMeIn has just never been able to come up to par there, and that would be a detractor. They've been talking about supporting mobile for 10-plus years, and I really haven't seen any improvement on that."
"Secondly, the product needs improvement on mobile interfaces because on mobile devices it doesn't perform very well. On computers, it is good, with desktops, laptops, it is good. Sometimes iPad is good, but going with other devices, like Android or Windows on smart phones, it's always a problem."
"You should be able to remote on an iPhone like you remote on an Android. It is not the same experience. Unless you are very savvy on iOS, you are pretty much lost."
"Nothing's perfect but I think it's really a great tool just the way it is. The suggestion that I made to them at their user advisory board is that they combine the two products, Rescue and Central, into one because you really should have both. A bunch of the other people in that meeting very much liked that."
"I occasionally need to reboot my computer after using LogMeIn, due to an issue with IE. It stops responding to keyboard input every once in a while, after disconnecting from a session. A reboot resolves it."
"it needs better iOS integration. It's still limited in its functionality when it comes to iOS. Currently, when you do something other than iOS, you're not able to take control of what's going on; instead of having to tell the user, "Click here, click there," I would like to have full control over an iOS device."
"The billing team was poor when fixing their billing mistake and customer service was missing in action."
"The solution’s pricing could be improved."
"We occasionally have issues with the graphic software of the interface."
