Find out in this report how the two Remote Access solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."For us, it was essential to integrate with Active Directory, which is our credentials repository."
"The secure hotspot access for enabling good network connectivity is great."
"The tool is easy to configure and use. We integrated it with Active Directory to manage user authentication. It's intuitive and transparent, making it simple for users to use. It connects automatically to the VPN whenever users turn on the laptop. The product is efficient and offers centralized control."
"Among its most valuable features is how it quickly and easily connects everyone to the VPN service."
"It is stable most of the time."
"The VPN hides your IP address and encrypts your online traffic and it essentially ensures that your fingerprints cannot be traced on the Internet."
"The team has full visibility of the users that connect allowing them to keep control of who is in the network and what data they are allowing to come in and out."
"To maintain the authorization of the connected user, Check Point provides multi-factor authentication for an RA VPN client to make sure legitimate users have access to resources."
"The most valuable feature is the ability for people to use LogMeIn's app that we install with our software, to bring us online with one click, so we can view their computer screens. It's easy and a lot of folks like it."
"Our favorite feature is being able to diagnose customers' problems by seeing them on the screen, rather than just over the phone."
"It works with different operating systems, I can connect to a PC or Mac."
"LogMeIn is a remote tool that I use for remote solutions."
"Being able to transfer files quickly and easily via the remote file manager."
"it's very easy to use, it's very efficient."
"It is very straightforward to set up, use, install, and transfer sessions."
"There’s something called the dial-in so for people that use us all the time, we can have an icon on their screen and they can click that icon and we connect to them."
"The VPN remote Access blade could be improved."
"I would like this service to be easier to manage when you integrate it with third parties."
"The client-side UI is fundamental, and there is nothing to see."
"Connection of devices from various locations is efficient though there are a few challenges when there is a network failure."
"There was complexity in the initial setup."
"It would be good to have Remote Access VPN solutions for Check Point edge services."
"They could add more features, like the security to block off the doors, or create another hatch, something like this. They could make the features safer, add malware to make my mail and the Kryon system safer and to protect data at an earlier stage."
"The Compliance software blade is available only for the Windows operating systems family, so no macOS security checks are implemented and performed."
"Nothing's perfect but I think it's really a great tool just the way it is. The suggestion that I made to them at their user advisory board is that they combine the two products, Rescue and Central, into one because you really should have both. A bunch of the other people in that meeting very much liked that."
"it needs better iOS integration. It's still limited in its functionality when it comes to iOS. Currently, when you do something other than iOS, you're not able to take control of what's going on; instead of having to tell the user, "Click here, click there," I would like to have full control over an iOS device."
"Support to remotely control more mobile devices' screens is desperately needed. It is sad to see how long this product has been out and how many phones are still not supported for, specifically, remote screen control."
"Their ability to support mobile has been really problematic. I've seen other products that have done a better job in supporting mobile products. LogMeIn has just never been able to come up to par there, and that would be a detractor. They've been talking about supporting mobile for 10-plus years, and I really haven't seen any improvement on that."
"I do wish there was an application to manage all of the admin properties of the subscription, rather than having to use the web portal."
"I would like a single sign on for all of our (five) accounts so that I can immediately use an available seat. Right now, I have to try to log in with each account separately, in an attempt to find an available license that is not currently in use."
"The pricing, is a little on the high end but it's proven itself to be worth it for sure."
"You should be able to remote on an iPhone like you remote on an Android. It is not the same experience. Unless you are very savvy on iOS, you are pretty much lost."
