Everything has worked better since we started using it

Sometimes the syncing is inconsistent. I'm confident that the devices are checking in every eight hours, but sometimes the devices aren't picking up the settings as quickly as I would expect. Some features haven't been updated in a while, and Microsoft doesn't seem interested in developing them. Unless you talk to an engineer, you don't know whether there will be an update. There are communication issues, so you might start working with a feature without knowing if it will be deprecated six months from now. Some reporting areas still need development. For example, I noticed that the reporting for driver updates is still confusing.

Simple to set up, reasonable pricing, and useful remote control capabilities

I'm on the latest version of the solution. I just updated it yesterday. While we have the solution on-premises at this time, we'll likely move to the cloud later this year. They have a trial version that you can try. They have a free version that you can try as well. I use it myself to support my family. I would try the free version or the trial version depending on your business. They can set you up and you can get to see all the features. I would also advocate going to the cloud version. Don't bother with the on-prem. It's just easier to jump to the cloud. I'd rate the solution nine out of ten.

Good remote services feature and easy to setup

With LogMeIn Pro, we could connect up to 10 computers, and having an option for something in between would be good. Like, we went from 10 to the next level, which was around 50 or so. If there was a tier, perhaps around 20, that I would have probably purchased, and it would have been a better fit for what I needed.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The biggest thing for us is enforcing logins only from devices that are managed by Intune."

"We have one MDM that works with Windows, iOS, and Android."

"Intune has automated the deployment of patches and applications, which is more efficient and easier. It allows us to deploy applications, packages, Windows updates, and security updates like BitLocker encryption more efficiently and easily."

"Remote Wipe and Autopilot is one of the best features."

"If you need only to load a specific profile and you don't have deep security functionalities, et cetera, Intune is very nice and good."

"The initial setup is not overly complex or difficult."

"We can securely manage both company-owned devices and personal devices enrolled in our BYOD program."

"Intune's compliance features are valuable because they allow immediate visibility into ongoing situations."

More Microsoft Intune pros

"I've noted an ROI while using the solution."

"The ConnectWise ScreenConnect tool is very good for remote access."

"The product's two-factor authentication means we are not worried like before about the state of our security."

"I do love the monitoring page. If you are using ConnectWise Control, which is the on-prem version, when you are logged into the admin panel, there is a status page that checks network connectivity, the status of the license, and so on."

"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."

"The initial setup is fairly straightforward."

"The remote management piece is the most valuable aspect of the solution for us due to the fact that we can support our clients after hours."

"Control lets us do remote management of machines without having to be on the VPN. It's super simple and super easy."

More ConnectWise ScreenConnect pros

"It's even simple to remotely add a computer to our group. We can send a link to that computer and they just follow the prompts on the screen and they are ready to go - we can access it. It's very user-friendly."

"The remote connection is the most valuable, but we also use it for file transfer, that would be probably the second most valuable. The remote connection is a major time saver, it saves us from having to drive to each location."

"I can use it for training, which I have done. As a person sits in front of the computer they can watch what I do, or I can watch what they do."

"Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."

"The ability to easily connect back and retrieve data from the computer systems that I have."

"I can copy information and put it into a presentation that I may be putting together at another location."

"I can login to my office computer, go into all of my software, and work from a remote location."

"The remote services feature is definitely the most valuable, along with the capability to print remotely."

More LogMeIn Pro pros

Cons

"When we implemented Intune, it would have been helpful if Microsoft had provided some videos or data about Intune."

"Cost is the biggest factor for us right now. Microsoft Intune and AD P1 together in a bundle is a good thing to have, but it is very costly compared to other products in the market. Otherwise, Microsoft Intune is the best."

"There can be some added features, such as an improved dashboard. Any new feature that could be a benefit to our customers would be good."

"Customer service used to be better, but as we are nearing the end of the contract, the focus on investing in us as a customer has diminished. It is what one would expect in such a situation."

"Although Intune is from the same provider, its integration with other Microsoft products, like Microsoft Defender or Microsoft Purview, could be improved."

"If we could remote into a device, it would be great. Currently, we cannot directly connect to the user device. We have to use other tools such as VMware for connecting to devices."

"I think that there is room for improvement with the reporting. If this is done, it will be a better product."

"The reporting could be improved, as it's pretty poor compared to other products of this type."

More Microsoft Intune cons

"The solution is a little bit complicated when you want to implement it."

"What we need this product to do is to be able to control Windows Updates. LogMeIn Central allowed us remote access but also allowed to push and install Windows Updates, and third-party updates... When we made the switch to ConnectWise we lost the ability to do patching. That forced us, for our larger clients, to move to WSUS. We had to set up a VM on those larger clients to push Windows Updates and patches into the network."

"I would like ConnectWise Control to be more transparent on the real costs to renew their license."

"We have had issues. We have had circumstances, for reasons we don't know, where the service will stop running, and when the service stops running that computer no longer becomes reachable. We haven't really seen that so much on desktops, but we have seen that happen quite frequently on server operating systems, Server 2008, Server 2012. You can install the product and then a week down the road it will just stop."

"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 recent redesign has made it slower and basically worthless."

"They could provide a toolbox for the plan I'm on."

More ConnectWise ScreenConnect cons

"It's never cheap enough. If we got it for free, that would be perfect. But I know it's not and won't be free. It's always going to be too expensive for me because we're a small company."

"As far as the usability of it, I'd like to see if printing could be enabled in the basic version or the medium version. Some of the remote printing isn't available unless you go to the premium versions, and that's disappointing."

"At certain times of the day, during the "rush hour," it's very slow. I don't know if it's the latency of the internet or the amount of people on it in the afternoon at 4:00, 5:00pm. Getting data transferred takes a longer time than other times of the day."

"It does go down sometimes. You try to login, it tells you the workdesk computer is not available. It does kick you off a lot."

"With Windows 10 we've had some issues with it crashing, and certain antivirus products cause it to fail. For the most part it's stable, but we do have an occasional crash mainly related to new operating systems. The new Microsoft Server and the new Windows operating systems sometimes have issues with it. But for the most part, in anything under, say, Windows 7, Windows 8, those seem to be pretty stable, and with the Microsoft Server 2012 and below, it's all stable. And I don't necessarily think it's LogMeIn. I think it may be Microsoft, to be honest with you."

"Maybe they can come up with a plan if you only use it for login and, occasionally, printing. Maybe you can charge what you used to charge and then if we want to use it for files or things that are more sophisticated, charge a little more."

"The user interface needs improvement. Mostly, it's pretty intuitive for what I need to do, but the extra elements to it seem very complex, so I don't really try to even use those. For example, document sharing, file stuff. I can do the log-in part, but the additional features are kind of complex."

"I would enhance the product, so if I had two screens in front of me, it could connect to two computers simultaneously with the program. For example, if I had a computer at location A and a computer at location B and I am sitting at location C, it might be nice for me to be able to be connected to all three of those computers and move data between those three during one session. "

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I am satisfied with the pricing."

"The product is offered as part of a Microsoft standard bundle. The pricing can be competitive to Airwatch, and Maas360."

"We don't pay for Intune because it is bundled with the premium subscription to Office 365. It includes Intune and Defender. I don't have to buy two extra products to manage my enterprise."

"It is cheap, but as compared to Google, it is costly. Google is cheaper, but quality-wise, Microsoft Intune is better."

"It comes as a bundle, so you do not really know what the prices are. Microsoft does not break it down to the user cost for us. It is just bundled with our E5 license."

"It is not expensive."

"The price is reasonable, but they should lower it a bit to make it more competitive. It's cheaper than AirWatch and other products, but I still feel like Microsoft can make a base version or with Exchange online or a la carte only Intune version which will be useful. A customer who doesn't want to go full-fledged E3 or E5 can take out or consume an Intune solution only for their purpose, and we want to target that customer."

"Intune is included with our F3 and E5 licenses."

More Microsoft Intune pricing and cost advice

"Pricing is fair for Control and the licensing is simple."

"For the price we pay, we definitely feel it's worth it, but there are some contenders in the market that are coming out now, whose products are as good; they are offering more features and the price is actually less than ConnectWise. All things considered, the biggest thing is the lack of patching in ConnectWise. If they could integrate that into the product, that would be a game changer, if offered at the same price point."

"It is priced fairly."

"Good price and works well."

"Their licensing model is good, their pricing model is good, their service is good; bandwidth is excellent. They're consistent."

"We pay $3,000 USD for the service, yearly upfront."

"The cloud version is relatively inexpensive, but the on-premise version is expensive if you do not need three technicians, only one or two for concurrent sessions."

"Make sure you have enough licensing for all the techs that you have."

More ConnectWise ScreenConnect pricing and cost advice

"It is very good."

"I think it's competitively priced. I haven't priced it out since we started with it, but the yearly subscription fee is worth it. It's not outrageous, and I believe that it's worth it for our company to pay the fees for the use of the product."

"My company needs to make annual payments toward the licensing cost of the product. There are no extra costs in addition to the standard license fees of the product."

"It's pretty fair for up to five computers I think (it might be three - it's either three or five). After that, it gets a little expensive, so if they could get a little bit more aggressive on how many computers you can add in, that would be great."

"The price point has gone up significantly. We used to have a lot of other customers. I used to sell it to other customer sites. But they've moved to TeamViewer, SiteSecure, and several others. There are four or five others that they went to because they're being more competitive on their pricing."

"It is pricey. When they renew me, they always boost it up, I call them and they cut it back a little bit."

"I am very happy to say that I have been very satisfied with the LogMeIn product, except for the escalation of the price. "

"I have a tiered pricing. If I wanted to subscribe for three years, I will get a discount for that."
