Find out what your peers are saying about NinjaOne, Kaseya, TeamViewer and others in Remote Monitoring and Management (RMM)."The ability to remotely access machines with no user intervention required at the remote terminal. Other software we used needed someone to click a link and do a download for me to provide support. Now, with LogMeIn Central, I can get in and fix things while they are away from their desks."
"It saves us drive time, we don't have to go to clients. We can just use remote access."
"Provides remote access, allows me to get inside our network to be able to fix problems."
"It is convenient for my workers to be at home. Therefore, it is easier for them as their second job to do the work. That is a plus, and I improve productivity."
"I like the security aspect, that I can glance down and see quickly who's up to date on patches, and who has virus concerns."
"One of the improvements they made was a LogMeIn Central client - that was a couple years ago - and that has been great. You no longer have to use their web interface. There's actually a client that you can install, which lists all of the machines and servers that you can access. That works really well."
"I would not want to tell other companies about it because it is so powerful, it does so much, and it makes me look so good."
"I like the encryption and security of LogMeIn. I think the end-to-end security on it, in and of itself, is really good. I use the two-point login system and it's great."
"The solution is stable."
"The most valuable feature is the graphical-based reports of software updates that have been successful, the ones that have failed, and a summary of where the failures are what security breaches may occur."
"I like the data collection."
"It has the ability to perform mass distribution."
"Software deployment and WSUS are most valuable."
"The scalability to deploy the package."
"SCCM is a stable solution."
"The main, clear valuable feature is updating the latest, patches and updates from Windows. This is the main feature we really utilize a lot."
"Do not use the technical support."
"The file transfer could be better. They could make it a lot easier to deal with. LogMeIn Central is not that intuitive. It's a lot harder to figure out."
"Our clients are having issues with printing."
"The initial load is terribly slow and often has delays with the login page loading."
"They should provide intermediate device limit options for the users."
"Sometimes it just fails to load."
"There are some screens that are just ugly and difficult to manipulate."
"It's not really a true RMM product but more of just a remote access."
"We'd like the solution to make it easier to manage remote users."
"The tool's deployment is difficult. Microsoft needs to improve documentation with videos."
"There's no way to say, "I want this maintenance window to be on the second Tuesday of the month." It's strict. This window is this and that's it. You can't fluctuate."
"It should provide the ability to remotely connect to mobile devices. There are some solutions that are doing that, but with Microsoft Intune, the only way to remotely connect to devices outside the organization and mobile devices is by using TeamViewer. It is pretty strange for a big company like Microsoft to not have something for that."
"It is a bit of an old and outdated product."
"The ability to integrate MDM would be great."
"Built in PowerShell cmdlets would be a nice feature because managing clients remotely can be a pain without knowing the WMI calls to run."
"The reports are too busy. They could be simpler. I'm a technician, so I don't care how pretty the reports look. They should be easy to read. I'm designing this for production folks. They need to read the reports quickly when they're patching in the middle of the night."
