Todd Blake - PeerSpot reviewer
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.
Yogesh Kumar Mali - PeerSpot reviewer
A good and decent meeting platform that stores recordings of meetings
We use Zoho Meeting for booking meetings and demo calls for product review updates The most valuable feature of Zoho Meeting is how it stores recordings and how we can get those recordings by order. It may be a network issue, but sometimes the video gets blurred when we are on a Zoho Meeting…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"You can bring up a command prompt remotely and execute commands without having to disturb the user."
"Unattended access is the most important feature."
"Offers more security than TeamViewer, Google Remote Desktop, and Zoom. It's a stable, feature-rich solution that's easy to set up and easy to scale."
"It is super easy to use and relatively inexpensive."
"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."
"The product's two-factor authentication means we are not worried like before about the state of our security."
"Session groups and triggers are the most valuable features, because they make a greater degree of organization possible. Greater degree of organization is valuable to my organization, because we have many sessions to handle."
"The ConnectWise ScreenConnect tool is very good for remote access."
"The most valuable feature of Zoho Meeting is how it stores recordings and how we can get those recordings by order."
"The API is much more flexible than other platforms."
"One of the most valuable features of Zoho Meeting is how user-friendly it is. It also has some security features."
"I like the tool's video call feature."
 

Cons

"There can be some complexities when running patches or when building up all the profiles, making them areas where improvements are required."
"I really didn't care for the onboarding process and it is something that should be improved."
"I was not thrilled with their support. I do not have a lot of time to deal with the attention which is needed to fix issues."
"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 is one back-end issue that I am running into at some of locations where I login to provide support, and sometimes port 443 is blocked. That is what it uses to connect. So, I am having to do workarounds to get a session started."
"There could be improvement to the remote command line tools."
"There needs to be a way to run the agent without installing, like GoToAssist."
"They could provide a toolbox for the plan I'm on."
"Maybe the price could be lowered, but people will want a lower price forever."
"I would like to see a chat feature in the solution."
"It may be a network issue, but sometimes the video gets blurred when we are on a Zoho Meeting video call."
"They do not have phone support."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Make sure you have enough licensing for all the techs that you have."
"It is priced well and it is still a great value. Although I have been reading a lot about Splashtop. They are getting pretty competitive on their pricing, including a fairly easy to use remote support for mobile applications, like iOS and Android."
"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."
"Pricing is fair for Control and the licensing is simple."
"We pay $85 per month for each user for a ConnectWise package with multiple solutions."
"I think the product's pricing is a good value. I paid $600 a year and that was fine for me. It was about $50 a month. Licensing is all very straightforward."
"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."
"ConnectWise Control is not an overly expensive tool. Its pricing is reasonable."
"The product is not costly like other applications."
"Compared to other solutions, the price is not the lowest, but I can say it's competitive. My organization pays for a yearly license for Zoho."
"In India, Professional Zoho Meeting for up to 10 participants costs INR 125 per month, and for up to 250 participants, it costs INR 750 per month if billed annually."
