"The initial setup was simple."
"The ability to manipulate and do things to the computer and file manager, then boot to safe mode, and see what is going on and track alerts. I use it all."
"The initial setup was very easy."
"It’s enabled me to remotely do updates to servers and workstations in off-hours – without needing to travel into the office. Makes my life much easier."
"I like the options for multiple displays. The unattended access is very useful, but it can also be misused. So, it is something you have to be careful with."
"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."
"No issues with stability. It has worked on every platform I’ve tried it on, and not interfered with anything."
"It does the job and meets our needs. With everybody working remotely these days, we are using this solution to deploy everything. The deployment of PCs is easy."
"I have found the solution to be scalable. We have around 50,000 users using the solution."
"With the right administrator, application deployment can do wonders."
"It works well for the endpoints for the customer I'm consulting. It has a bunch of knobs, and you can tune it to do lots of things."
"The most valuable features are Remote Connect, SUP, Cloud functionality, Report, Query, and third-party patching."
"Endpoint Manager is valuable to our organization because it allows us to connect to our enterprise from remote locations securely. The most useful feature is its robustness and scalability. It is highly scalable and flexible, allowing us to use it in various environments. Additionally, we can specialize the policies related to each device group. This ensures that each group has access to the applications they need for their work and non-work hours."
"The most valuable feature of Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager is the software deployment. Additionally, Microsoft integrates most of the other solutions well with one another."
"Automation of operating system, application, and update deployments massively reduces IT operations effort."
"It's not really a true RMM product but more of just a remote access."
"I have had issues where LogMeIn has not been useful, then we have not been able to work that day. This happens probably two or three times a year."
"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."
"File transfer on the free version needs improvement. Allow file transfer with drag and drop to and from Remote Desktop. "
"I do not like the antivirus."
"The update issues are an absolute pain. It says it is updating things, but the updates do not go through, and you try your hardest to get the updates to go through and they don't. You go to the PC, but there is no update there, then you go back and it says there are updates."
"The screen. Make it clearer. The screen resolutions don't always line up. So clarity of the screen, and speed."
"Sometimes it just fails to load."
"It needs to be able to load faster during deployment."
"Marketing: Our management doesn't understand that there is a piece of software which helps them automate and manage the entire network, as far as operating systems on computers."
"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."
"As far as load balancing across, they don't have that support yet, so that you can actually build multiple primaries and have it load balance across. They don't have any of that functionality yet. That would be a nice feature, to scale that way."
"The setup was complex and I faced a lot of problems initially because I was new to the solution."
"They need to improve the support for the Mac operating system."
"The solution can be improved by speeding up the synchronizing of the policies on the devices."
"The operations could be faster and you need some patience with this tool."
