Barracuda RMM vs. LogMeIn Rescue

It is very good for Managed Service Providers to be able to monitor and manage multiple clients at a time from one central location. Many things can be automated through it so that they don't require your constant attention. It would not be as appropriate for internal use at a company, is more suited for MSP's.

Most of the time it is great. Sometimes with iPads it is not great or too expensive for orgs to pay for an option to allow iPads to be logged into along with computers and windows computer tablets. When needing to view something a client is talking about. It is great to use login to understand the issue and possibly fix any issues we need.

• Agentless, unlike most RMM, you don't need to download and install an agent on the devices. The onsite manager (OM) will scan the entire domain for computers, network devices, printers, etc.
• Remote access: Users have to select whether to access shared screen or via RDP.
• Detail Dashboard Information: it has a very reach feature that displays information about system components.

• The rescue lens feature has come in handy to save us plenty of times. being able to have eyes on the end users' side to see how things are actually physically connected.
• Having the ability to collaborate with other technicians is a feature that I have not seen in other applications. normally the other person has to connect as well which results in lowered connection speed on the end user's side since 2 connections are running.
• The tools to be able to locate and audit sessions are also very valuable for measuring the performance of my technicians.

• It can be hard to use at first glance
• Does not work well on weak and old laptops
• Otherwise everything is perfect

• one of the prompt in windows users is not vissible, somethimes users missed it and you must start from scratch
• more documentation for apple users
• never could record a session, all the time was a permissions issue, don't know how to do it

We may continue using Logmein as it is the best remote support application in terms of connection latency and control. However, since several of our client sites have stricter security policies they block this application and we have to switch to other ways which is inconvenient

For user i think it needs improvement as every remote session I need to download the app, find it, open it, and allow access. For Agent it is well suited to provide support and preform any task required on the user workstation

We've tried many times to work with support to accomplish various tasks in the system with minimal responsiveness and success. Most of what we have accomplished has been without support and through trial/error.

I'd say support for LogMeIn is ideal because I haven't ever been in a situation where additional support was necessary. The program runs so efficiently and simply that nothing was needed beyond initial training that was provided by my company. I am saying this as a user that strictly uses the technician console

Make sure you have your LogMeIn Rescue account sign-in details handy when installing on multiple support systems.

• Barracuda Managed Workplace definitely handles live notifications better then Lansweeper.
• We currently use Lansweeper for Software Deployment and Patch Management
• Nagios has better visuals for network layout and heartbeat monitoring
• We are assessing TeamViewer/AnyDesk now for better Remote Desktop support. But Barracuda does handle this task very well and we wouldn't be put out to continue using Barracuda for this.

Truth be told, Rescue is the first and so far only solution from LogMeIn I started to use. However since it offers a wide range of tools specifically designed for remote support, it is highly effective for resolving technical issues. Additionally, Rescue provides various connection methods and customizable interfaces, allowing support teams like mine to tailor the experience to specific needs.

it's perfect

• It has really helped us in reporting. We need to show our customers that our monitoring is helping them and the reports are very helpful in doing that.

• For businesses with small to midsize IT staff, the ability to remotely control devices that are not on-site and occasionally out of state is extremely cost-effective.
• The speedy response time of LogMeIn Rescue has been very helpful in resolving issues for IT staff.
• The administrative process has been made more efficient by the ability to remotely log into servers.
