From a single place, I can use LogMeIn Central to monitor which machines need upgrades and determine whether to delay them until after isolated testing. I can also use the One2Many tool to arrange batch updates for third-party software. Plus, it enables me to provide Ad Hoc Support sessions to staff members who are experiencing problems with their client computers.
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.
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.
What I dont like is when I run out of licenses that the only way to get more is to buy large amounts. this is very frustrating and as a small business I need to watch how much i am spending. smaller license packs would be better
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
The LogMeIn Central is simple to use. You can easily manage computers and servers by creating different groups. Connecting to a remote computer is a simple click-on button. You don't need the remote user's password if [they are] already logged in. You don't need the remote user on the other side if you want to take full control. Overall the usability is simple.
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
It has saved us countless times, and we didn't need to get boots on the ground to fix or maintain patches or errors. Being able to solve a number of issues for a central location without having to have a tech travel is invaluable as far as resources and time spent for everyone.
Every time I called in with a question or concern, your support team always provided the right information. It's great to call in to support and everyone that answers is very knowledgeable of the product.
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
We use both LogMeIn Central by GoTo and a true RMM product. LogMeIn Central by GoTo has its role as an easier method to remotely access selected oft-used machines, whereas the RMM product is much, much more cost effective to rollout to entire infrastructure footprints.
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.
Time, many times when some service needed privileged access (administrator) the resolver agent needed to go to the user and this travel time (10 - 15 minutes) because this is a large company. Basically we reduced 50 minutes of service to 20, even 10 minutes
After the implementation we achieved a 20% increase in our ticket resolution rate and a 57% increase in the SLA service rate
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.
