Has good stability and an easy initial setup process
We use the solution for remote access control and endpoint protection features The solution has the best remote access control and protection features. They should provide intermediate device limit options. It would be helpful for users who require more remote control capabilities than the lower…

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

"It is convenient for my workers to be at home. Therefore, it is easier for them as their second job to do the work. That is a plus, and I improve productivity."
"It’s enabled me to remotely do updates to servers and workstations in off-hours – without needing to travel into the office."
"It is a scalable solution."
"I function through LogMeIn, because it gives me everything I need."
"If you need unattended access, then LogMeIn; I haven't found anything better."
"Remote access, we can remote access our clients, the workstation servers."
"It is convenient for my workers to be at home, therefore, it is easier for them as their second job to do the work, that is a plus, and I improve productivity."
"All in all, the ROI was great as it saved me a lot of time - And time is money!"
"The setup was pretty simple."
"The biggest thing is the flexibility, you can use it as long as you can get an internet connection. You can use it pretty much anywhere you're at. It just makes it a lot easier. We are a small staff, and if nobody is in the office, LogMeIn gives us secure access to get in there."
"Technical support was able to address everything that I asked in a timely, responsible, satisfactory manner."
"I can copy information and put it into a presentation that I may be putting together at another location."
"I would recommend LogMeIn."
"If I could give it an 11 out of 10 I would, but I definitely give it a 10. It saves me time, it saves me headaches, it saves me a lot of problems, and I'm able to fix things quickly and move on. I can get in and out of the computer without anyone really even knowing that I fixed something."
"It gives you a lot of flexibility when it comes to travel; it doesn't matter where you're at, I traveled overseas to Vietnam and was able to log in, and you can log in from anywhere in the world, so from that standpoint, it gives you access 24/7 no matter where you're at."
"The ROI is almost instantaneous, in that it aggregates multiple functions into one, and allows for proactive actions that could otherwise cause some downtime or inconvenience."
 

Cons

"Sometimes it just fails to load."
"It's not really a true RMM product but more of just a remote access."
"There are some screens that are just ugly and difficult to manipulate."
"Do not use the technical support."
"It's getting more expensive and we are starting to evaluate other products. It's starting to become unaffordable."
"The client could have a bit more functionality, as some changes can only be made through the web interface."
"I have had issues where LogMeIn has not been useful, then we have not been able to work that day."
"The update issues are an absolute pain. It says it is updating things, but the updates do not go through, and you try your hardest to get the updates to go through and they don't."
"Remote Access for external and internal customers."
"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."
"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. ​"
"LogMeIn is a great product, and unfortunately, is a necessary evil."
"It's never cheap enough. If we got it for free, that would be perfect."
"To be honest with you, I use it just for login and the prices are getting too high so we're going to look for an alternative solution."
"The management part probably needs improving. It can get a little cluttered."
"​Everything has to be done over the web, via email, or something like that. You can't talk to a human being. That bothers me a lot.​"
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price is a little high but it's competitive. The licensing process is fairly easy."
"The only thing I found is that they've gotten very, very expensive over the years. I started out with about about 100 users on it. Two years ago it was about $600 for 100 users. Now, it's that price for 25 users."
"The price needs improvement. It is ridiculously expensive now, and no features have really changed."
"The solution's price is reasonable."
"Pricing is a little high. They require for LogMeIn Central to go into brackets. If you go over a certain amount of PCs or servers to access, going up to the next bracket is a big jump."
"Coming from where it was free, it's getting to be expensive."
"We've been trying to nail its cost down ourselves, and it is a disaster in that area because you get different numbers all the time. They say this is what it is, but the numbers don't make a lot of sense to me. I know that the numbers change. So, the more you have, the less they are per seat, but I don't really understand where those breakdowns are. Its billing is confusing. It is definitely the worst part. For 7,500 seats, it might be between 2,250 and 2,700 a month. It is somewhere in there."
"It sucks that I am paying for LogMeIn Central, LogMeIn Pro, and LogMeIn Rescue, plus LogMeIn Ignition, which is the mobile app​. It costs me a lot of money every month at LogMeIn. ​"
"The company does not scale the price based upon use."
"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."
"If you subscribe the package of 100 Agents, but install 5, you are still paying for the 100 agent package."
"I have a tiered pricing. If I wanted to subscribe for three years, I will get a discount for that.​"
"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."
"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."
"Pricing is what I'm upset with. Now, that they bought everybody up, the price doubled."
"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."
