"Being able to flip quickly between however many monitors that I have running, detune the video for black and white, or with fewer colors to make it faster, is amazing."
"It's very low maintenance."
"The flexibility to manage bandwidth and organize connections, and the price, make ConnectWise a really good choice."
"The initial setup is fairly straightforward."
"Better than TeamViewer and useful for fixing problems remotely."
"I've noted an ROI while using the solution."
"it gives me the ability to remotely connect to machines that I manage without user intervention."
"Remote connect via webpage. I use it to support employees when I am not in the office or when they are at a remote location."
"Ability to save a permanent remote connection, hold, and/or transfer."
"The multiple connect methods really help with users who are not tech savvy or knowledgeable about their own computers."
"LogMeIn is a remote tool that I use for remote solutions."
"The ability see iOS devices helps us out a lot because the majority of our users are iOS device users."
"The vendor's reliability provides me with peace of mind. Over the 10-plus years, we've literally had no issues with it going down or with it causing any problems or causing issues when our end-users are trying to get access to it."
"The solution has been in the market for the past 20 years. For us, it is one of the best tools."
"They've thought of everything in terms of features. It's got all the little drill-down details and capabilities to apply patches and other stuff like that. I don't use everything they offer but you can go wherever you want to take this tool. It's been around for a really long time. We try as much as possible to train our staff to take care of their own systems and train our customer staff to take care of their own systems. There's a little laser pointer feature that you can pull up on the screen and say, "No, over here, click on this." That's very educational. It's a simple thing but when you're trying to get people to take responsibility and learn to take care of their own infrastructure, being able to just point at something while you're viewing their screen, as well as, take over their screen, is very valuable."
"The desktop sharing allows our clients to demonstrate the issue they are having, and then allows us to provide remediation directly."
"They could provide a toolbox for the plan I'm on."
"I really didn't care for the onboarding process and it is something that should be improved."
"I would like ConnectWise Control to be more transparent on the real costs to renew their license."

"On a Linux machine, there are different limitations that are not there on a Windows Server. Much more limitations exist on Linux deployments."
"There can be some complexities when running patches or when building up all the profiles, making them areas where improvements are required."
"At the moment, there's absolutely no specific feature that we actually need additionally since all the features that we need are available."
"The solution is a little bit complicated when you want to implement it."
"The pricing, is a little on the high end but it's proven itself to be worth it for sure."
"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."
"They need to improve their technical support."
"We are currently supporting Linux, but there are certain limitations. We are currently working on improving Linux support and addressing certain limitations in the roadmap."
"Network browsing and connecting on the LAN, because if you can't see the computers on your network, what good is the product?"
"I occasionally need to reboot my computer after using LogMeIn, due to an issue with IE. It stops responding to keyboard input every once in a while, after disconnecting from a session. A reboot resolves it."
"I would like to see a mobile client that would work on an iPad, so I do not always have to be on a PC or a full-blown Mac operating system."
"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."
