AnyDesk vs. ScreenConnect

It is suited for every business. You can use it whether you are an individual, student, professional, or organization. You can simply download it, ask the user to share their ID, connect to their system, and support them remotely. You don't require any special skill or technical knowledge to use it.

I feel [ConnectWise Control (formerly ScreenConnect)] works on all sizes of implementations. I've used it with about 1000 endpoints and I've even used it for managing a couple family machines to make remote support easier. It works super well and does exactly what you want it to. It has not disappointed me at all and I'd recommend it to any employers I work for as well.

• Minimises the physical involvement of our trainers for training new technicians joining the company.
• Building better relationships with our clients by assisting them with bookings and understanding services.
• Also we use it to manage clients feedbacks and share information with each other.

• Self-hosted - this is great for me and makes it easy to control my data, which is important for my clients.
• Mobile Access - being able to quickly diagnose and resolve an issue while on the road is great.
• Persistent - "always on" connections with screen capture.
• Great User Interface and chat works exceptionally well.

Incentivized

• Notification or Addition:
• AnyDesk provides codes to connect room, which is complicated sometimes, if it is manageable same as a call then it can be much user friendly though current system is unique in its way for AnyDesk.
• Use of AI more:
• If AnyDesk can provide Summary, previous call data and recording data storage with summarized way that can be useful.
• Multi user experience:
• While discussion itself if we want to add another user for help this quick feature is not easy currently.

• If CWC integrated with more RMM software other than LabTech it would be great as LabTech is way too expensive and convoluted at this point so we discontinued using it in favor of a simpler and much less expensive option.
• Though it does support multiple monitors well, it would be nice to have the ability to have it automatically pop each remote monitor out to the local monitors if so desired.
• Right now it uses email for multifactor authentication, I would rather it use an electronic key that can be stored on cell phone or user desktop.
• The ability for it to automatically login to a Windows desktop would be a big help as well. It will store a username and password but you must manually send a control-alt-delete and then click a button to have it fill. Tying to something like Lastpass along with an autologin feature would be great.

I don't have any reason to change

I would recommend this product for both internal remote control of end user workstations and remote access to other clients over the internet. It provides a secure and feature rich product that allows me to complete any necessary tasks without ever leaving the office. I will continue to renew as I'm eager to see what they do next. I would however wish the cloud service had a better API to work in conjunction with team collaboration or chat services to make it easier to connect with end users who use multiple workstations. (Slack or Stride provide this functionality)

My personal experience with AnyDesk has been good. I found that it is easy to use for both technical and nontechnical users to get started. It offers fast and Responsive performance, with Low latency even over an average internet connection

If you're a support noobie or a seasoned admin, this product is everything you are looking for. Join with a code - CHECK! Hop onto a permanent session installed on a PC/Server - YOU GOT IT! Wake up a remote sleeping computer - no problem. Need to customize access to different roles in your organization - BUILT RIGHT IN!

In my 5 years of using the product, I am only aware of one time when the service was down and is was due to a backbone outage upstream.

It performs well. It also has full control over windows security and does not get hung up like GoToMeeting when trying to install remote software at the prompt to install as admin / override. I have used TeamViewer, WebEx, LogMeIn and GoToMeeting. This is by far the best at spontaneous, remote control. It is also very easy to get a novice user connected to the session.

I didn't have any technical problems and I didn't suffer from bugs or errors. Customer service has improved a lot and I no longer need to leave the office to go to the user's computer. With AnyDesk I install and remove programs, printers, scanners, settings in general. Screen sharing is excellent and without delays. Overall, I recommend and approve AnyDesk.

There have been two times when something has went wrong and I needed immediate assistance in order to be able to use Screenconnect to be able to help clients and response has not been immediate. The response time has been within 24 hours. Both times if there had been easier to navigate self help I would have been able to help myself. With better self help and a speedier response it would definitely be a 10 as they always respond and help. Just a little more difficult or slow than it should be at times

Incentivized

the one I attended didn't grab my attention the way I thought it would. Maybe because of the way I use the product; or because of how I am using an online instance, not a locally installed version. Some of the discussion got more technical and off the topic, it seemed.

ConnectWise has done everything they could to help us in any situation. Great support team and their new updates are always providing features that we need. Its a simple solution that works the way we need it to. Their legacy pricing model is still much better than their subscription based model however it is still fair pricing

AnyDesk is simpler to use than BeyondTrust. Beyond trust is suitable for a bit, but it's a bit heavy. Major guidance is required to guide the next person. Multiple steps are involved before we get remote access. Sometimes, it gets stuck in between. Beyond trust, data transfer is comparatively slower. It cannot be ready within a few minutes.

Incentivized

We have used Beyond Trust occasionally for one of our White Label clients, but have found it is not as robust as ConnectWise Control. The seamless integration of Control with ConnectWise Automate makes it the best and most effective choice for our technical teams to deploy and manage our client machines.

As far as I can see there are no real barriers to scaling up - as and when we need more subscriptions, we can add them in with no negative impact to the existing way that we're using the tool

• The most positive impact is time saving, in all the aspects using any other thing then AnyDesk consumes a lot of productive time and that cost you a lot more than a single subscription. Using this time in productive works pays you well in the the sales or any other process.

• Quite simply our business could not function without a form of remote control software. Control has done an amazing job at filling a core foundation pillar of our business model as an MSP, having some clients in very remote destinations, we can still service them through the use of Control.
• We pay per technician for an unlimited number of endpoints, and this pricing model has served us very admirably. As a smaller startup MSP, the cost of paying per endpoint would only serve to hurt our growth. Being able to pay a flat rate based on staffing is very desirable.
• The whole experience using Control is polished and speedy. I couldn't imaging going back to a slower solution, the value Control brings is palpable in our business model.
