Enables management of multiple operating systems with a single license
The best feature is that it's a Microsoft product, so if anything goes wrong, we get quick support for anything required. Remote system functionality allows us to sit anywhere and take control of any device via remote management. We can enhance security for clients' laptops with built-in Microsoft Defender, which is available with the Microsoft Intune license. We use it for reporting purposes through endpoint analytics. When pushing scripting, there are two types available: remediation script and reservation script. Through endpoint analytics, you can push defender policies to clients. It helps with reporting, inventory updates, and monitoring tenant status health.

Solution elevates team collaboration and manages remote support efficiently
For me as a user in the service desk, there is already a lot of functionality in the product. I don't have any specific ideas for improvement on that side. Some technical aspects could be improved, particularly in product management. For the end user, enhancements do not seem necessary at the moment. They could probably give the technician client a more modern interface, but the crucial factor is stable connectivity in a remote session. I see more potential for improvement on the administration side, like better transparency when a patch is installed. It would be useful for administrators to see the version and patch levels of the product easily. BeyondTrust could also enhance their quality control process before releasing a new build to ensure no new bugs are present. This is a common issue among software manufacturers.

Able to boot into safe mode or standard mode remotely and reliable performance
I've only had to deal with it once. Because of the custom package we have, a white-label package, I can only think of one issue maybe six or seven years ago. I don't even remember what it was. At that time, I think they were pretty responsive. Very few companies offer phone support anymore; everyone's gone the way of email responses. I'm having that problem with CorelDRAW right now, and I'm waiting three weeks for a technician. So it's a good thing it's not important. Are the customer service and support good? For me, they're as good as anybody else, maybe not as good as some companies, but probably better than most. We deal with HP, IBM, HCL. Some companies only offer email support, and you have to wait for a response. I'm trying to remember the last time I interacted with Splashtop support. They do give you an answer. On a scale of one to ten, they're nine plus. You rarely have to use them, but I'm satisfied when you do.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The security posture is very good. It's very customizable."
"I would rate the overall solution as a 10."
"Stable solution at a good price."
"It is helpful for managing devices anytime and any place without requiring dependency on the local networks."
"The feature of remotely wiping devices in Microsoft Intune is what I prefer the most."
"Once it is well integrated with the rest of the environment, it makes everything easy."
"The most valuable feature is the policy CSPs."
"The most valuable includes managing everything from a single console."
"We have the ability to securely assist users remotely with a stable product, which allows for reporting capabilities, SAML authentication, and ServiceNow integration."
"Bomgar is used for connecting with our end users and helping them to resolve any issues that they have on their computer."
"Live chat enabled a new support channel into our service desk, integrating with our Service Management toolset. The meet-in-the-middle remote control functionality bypassed a lot of network restrictions that hampered our previous solution, enabling a far wider reach to our end-users."
"It's very secure, and it works very well. I like their remote support feature. It can be used for our clients' desktops or anywhere where the client can be working. I'd have to say the product is very good. It's a strong solution for us."
"It has a straightforward setup. Bomgar has created a simple, lightweight deployment process."
"Solution has a good UI."
"The integrated chat service with quick elevation to a full control support session has increased our service desk efficiency."
"It is a lightweight, reliable solution that gives IT a direct visual of occurring issues."
"The file transfers work well, the remote support and hosted solution work well."
"The tool's most valuable features are pricing and easy management."
"Splashtop Remote Support is my main product, and I use it daily. Its main function is to control systems, which is essential remotely. Additionally, it has useful features such as chat functionality, file transfer, and the ability to add notes with information about a computer or server. Despite being simple software, it is very useful and valuable."
"The ability to use mobile devices is helpful because we can support our clients from anywhere."
"The solution is very fast."
"The initial setup is simple."
 

Cons

"The installation could be improved to be simplified."
"When pushing anything from Microsoft Intune, the sync timing is 48 hours. While sometimes it takes 5 to 10 minutes, the official period given by Microsoft is within 48 hours, which can be time-consuming for policies, applications, or patches."
"Intune's reporting and logging could be improved. When troubleshooting, it's difficult to collect the logs and determine what's happening. If I want to filter out the compliant devices, I can see it from the logs, but I would like the option to drill down further."
"The interoperability or communication with a different platform can be better. It is a two-way street. It is not only about Microsoft. The other platforms also have to be willing to share some information, but that absolutely can be improved."
"The pricing can be expensive if you are not combining it with other products."
"The biggest problem we ever have is when something goes out of date after 30 days when nobody has logged into it. We do have a problem trying to get those back online. We've been working with Microsoft to resolve that problem, but that's been the only issue that we've had in the last few years."
"I would like the ability to install the agent on devices from suppliers, which would enable us to implement a zero-trust strategy for guest devices."
"We do not utilize Microsoft customer service and technical support since it is generally a waste of time."
"One potential improvement is in the support department."
"I would like more insight into completed sessions. This would be nice, such as a historical log into the technician client application."
"In the next release, I would like remote access to Chrome included."
"Lacks remote support and privileged remote access in the one product."
"They need to ensure that the remote support is compatible with the other cloud solution providers, like Huawei. Currently it is only compatible with Azure, AWS and KVM."
"Some technical aspects could be improved, particularly in product management."
"Although the learning curve is steep, the product is well-documented.​"
"There were a few employee devices that failed during the initial deployment, which required a second deployment."
"The solution should be able to make an inventory of computers automatically."
"The phone's a little tricky to work with due to the small screen."
"The packages that Splashtop has, tend to be a little bit confusing and should be simplified."
"The integration features could be better."
"The solution should add more options and tools for shortcuts, administration, etc."
"Splashtop Remote Support needs to improve customization."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"While Microsoft charges for actual usage, it lacks discount options."
"It's affordable. It's cheaper if you have an Office 365, E5, or E3 subscription because everything is there."
"The overall pricing of Microsoft Intune is good for companies that have big IT budgets, 3,000 or more users and devices."
"Previously the price was $4 per month per user. Now it's $2.25 per user per month."
"I recently got to know that the AD P1 license is compulsory to use Intune Autopilot, which was surprising for me. Earlier, this was not the case. It is the wrong thing to do. We now need to purchase AD P1 licenses for us and for our customers. I would rate it a seven out of ten for pricing."
"Its price is fair. It's a normal price. It isn't too expensive or too cheap."
"Microsoft Intune is more expensive than other solutions, but it offers a wider range of features and control."
"The price of Intune is included with the license for Office 365, so we don't have to pay anything extra for it."
"Their pricing is a little bit high but it's negotiable depending on the type of client. It is approximately R6,000 per year for a user. I would rate the pricing a four out of five."
"I highly recommend using the tech team properly trained by Bomgar. This will help the tool be more useful."
"I rate Remote Support eight out of 10 for affordability. It's definitely not the cheapest product, but you get a good return on your investment."
"I would like to order more licenses. This would allow us to support more end users concurrently."
"Pricing is reasonable for what the service is offering. If it is looked at from a purely remote control perspective then it might appear expensive, but it is the wider functionality that should be considered too."
"The setup is complex. Purchase the remote implementation service and make them slow down and work with you."
"BeyondTrust Remote Support is a very expensive product."
"Although the upfront cost is a bit overwhelming, the appliance will pay for itself in less than two years."
"Splashtop Remote Support is not too expensive. It costs around 800 euros per year."
"The licensing fees are less than $400 per year."
"The price of the solution is mid-ranged, although it is more cost effective than that of TeamViewer."
