It's one means for the IT team to address issues that our staff might have.

What is most valuable?

It's one means for the IT team to address issues that our staff might have. That's our primary thing; getting to them. Some of them are on the road all the time, so it's an easy way for us to get to them, and figure out what's going on.

What needs improvement?

The management part probably needs improving. It can get a little cluttered. That's probably the biggest area for improvement, at least from my perspective. When I go in there sometimes, it's a little difficult to figure out where it is. Maybe it's because I don't personally use it all the time. I think that's one area I think it can really improve on.

For how long have I used the solution?

We've been using this product for about four or five years now.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

For the most part, it is stable. We haven't had any major issues, or noticeable issues. I'm sure it happens on and off, but it's nothing that I can complain about.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

It is scalable. It is. We have about 200 employees. As part of our deployment, when we provision a system for somebody, it goes in as a default; definitely. As we need it, obviously it's a way to get to them.

How are customer service and support?

We haven't really had to contact the technical support much, which is probably a good thing. At least I'm not aware of any instance where we have had to get in touch with them. My guys basically take care of it, so I don't know. I haven't heard of any issues in terms of having to contact support.

How was the initial setup?

The setup is very straightforward. We have been doing it for a while, so now it's second nature.

What other advice do I have?

I think it can bring a lot of value. I'm sure there are other products out there worth looking into. In our experience, we haven't had any issues. It's been stable. We're able to get to it, and it helps us run our business and service our employees better. I would definitely recommend it.

Easy to log in, easy to manipulate from screen to screen

What is our primary use case?

It allows me to work remotely from home, a couple days a week, instead of being in the office. That's it, that's the reason.

How has it helped my organization?

It creates better morale for the employee, by allowing the employee to work from home, rather than their having to drive to the office. It's filling a need within our organization.

It improves time and efficiency, both.

What is most valuable?

The fact that it's easy to log into, it's easy to manipulate from screen to screen. It does everything that we want it to do.

What needs improvement?

I can't really think of anything that needs improvement. There isn't anything that I don't like about it, or that I have found that I wished it would be different.

For how long have I used the solution?

One to three years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

I do have some issues every now and then, but I believe that it's on my host computer at the office, I believe it's on that end. LogMeIn cannot connect to it because its gone offline, or it's stuck. It needs to be shut down and restarted. But I don't think that's a LogMeIn issue, so I would say it's very stable.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

No issues with scalability.

How are customer service and technical support?

I may have used them in the very beginning, but I haven't needed to in years. But when I did, they were very good.

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

No previous solution.

How was the initial setup?

It was very straightforward.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

I think it's competitively priced. I haven't priced it out since we started with it, but the yearly subscription fee is worth it. It's not outrageous, and I believe that it's worth it for our company to pay the fees for the use of the product.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

This product was recommended by somebody that my boss knows. He may have looked at something else, I'm not sure. But since we had such good feedback from someone about this product, we went with it.

What other advice do I have?

In terms of advice to others looking into using this product, I would say if you have any questions, I think that you can google specific questions, or you can call for support. Your answers, or anything you might need to know, are very readily available. And it's very user-friendly.

All I can say is I'm really happy with it. If we had to find something else, I guess we would, but I can count on it. It allows me to do my job, and that's what I need to do. I don't think too much about it. I don't have issues with it. So I'm very happy with it.
