We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Provides remote access, allows me to get inside our network to be able to fix problems.""The alerts are helpful.""I have called for help to their technical support, and they have been extremely helpful.""For me, it's convenience because I cover three different offices, and I need to be able to remotely access any of those three offices from anywhere, anytime. With LogMeIn Central, I can do that.""​The initial setup was pretty straightforward.""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.""Remote access is really the biggest one, because in order to be able to support my clients from wherever I am, that is the biggest feature.""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 most valuable feature of N-able N-central is the many options it has.""It's a very robust product. They're continuing to invest and put new enhancements into the product. They're very open about what their roadmap is, which is very good for us because then as a business, we can plan.""I like the remote connectivity, reporting suite, and patch management module.""The support is at a good level. So normally, we can always get to a solution when we are stuck with some monitoring problems that we encounter.""The solution's service is good."

Cons
"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.""It is easy to get locked out, which is something that needs to be improved.""The solution is expensive as hell.""The initial load is terribly slow and often has delays with the login page loading.""I do not like the antivirus.""LogMeIn Rescue could be made a lot easier where you could just tell the person where to go and log in, and they could just log in. Or even make it simpler where you could just send a file to a person and they would click on it; just something easier. The way they have it right now, it's not easy.""​File transfer on the free version needs improvement. Allow file transfer with drag and drop to and from Remote Desktop. ​""It needs backwards compatibility for non-Microsoft-supported operating systems, for example, XP and 2003. In situations where I have no options but to run older operating systems, I would like for it to be backwards compatible."

"The integration with other applications could be better.""N-able N-central could improve the remote access, my technicians have complained about it. They have used other free tools instead to compensate, such as TeamViewer. Additionally, when using remote access on the web, it is lacking reports.""The solution's overall integration should be improved.""There is room for improvement in the development of custom monitoring services.""The support from our direct team is very good, but the support from their day-to-day ongoing help desk isn't that good. They have still got some work to do on that, but they have been focusing on that a lot over the last number of years. So, it has gotten a lot better than it was."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "It sucks that I am paying for LogMeIn Central, LogMeIn Pro, and LogMeIn Rescue, plus LogMeIn Ignition, which is the mobile app​. It costs me a lot of money every month at LogMeIn. ​"
  • "It really is an expensive product for me.​"
  • "Pricing is a little on the expensive side, compared to what TeamViewer has offered."
  • "It used to be a lot cheaper but then the price shot up (doubled over the span of two years), but it's hard to switch, and most competing products are similarly priced anyway."
  • "Pricing is a little high. They require for LogMeIn Central to go into brackets. If you go over a certain amount of PCs or servers to access, going up to the next bracket is a big jump."
  • "The price is a little high but it's competitive. The licensing process is fairly easy."
  • "It's probably worth the value, but the price increases over the last five years are getting harder to justify."
  • "We went with it for pricing reasons, that it was the biggest bang for our buck, by combining the ability to have a central security console, as well as a central point for user administration."
