There was one project wherein we wanted the fast result, and the deadline was quick for one day. We used SolarWinds Dameware Remote Everywhere (DRE) as a virtual network remotely. We took RDP of that and took connection. The result what we got was too quick like within some hours. We showed the same to our clients and received their appreciation once it went LIVE. Thank you so much team for this. Apart from this I never found this less appropriate

SolarWinds Dameware Remote Everywhere is an easy to use software package. The manuals are easy to understand, and the installation is simple and straightforward. The Maintenance and support costs are relatively reasonable, and we maintain support and maintenance strictly for the upgrades rather than support. Over the years, SolarWinds has released numerous feature enhancements to the software package, making SolarWinds Dameware Remote Everywhere indispensable on our network.

Much better control and use and features for screen sharing and remote access. The ability to show how to use, message and control cursor and full screen is beneficial for its purpose. Other programs have to have a specific screen shared which doesn’t allow for pop ups, 2nd windows, etc to be viewed and accessed.

Its integration with Samanage and cost were the key deciding factors over TeamViewer (which can be VERY expensive despite how easy and nice it is to use) and it's just far more functional and less limited than VNC or RDP or Chrome Remote Desktop options or even the screen share with Microsoft Teams (which only works when using the installed Teams app). It's important to note the deployment methods are nice and powerful too and support has been great so far.

Incentivized

• We’ve not paid for it but used it so it’s been beneficial
• We would benefit with the remote access control monitored for many situations where problem solving would come into play
• Any sharing app or program is beneficial if a user can access remotely

Incentivized

• seamless installation of MSI or EXE
• No Codes to enter when installing agent
• Agent automatically connects to cloud dashboard
• our deployment tool has messed up a couple of times, so agents get uninstalled or not installed when this occurs, and we can't see a computer in the dashboard
