LogMeIn Central vs LogMeIn Pro comparison

"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."

"The ability to remotely access machines with no user intervention required at the remote terminal. Other software we used needed someone to click a link and do a download for me to provide support. Now, with LogMeIn Central, I can get in and fix things while they are away from their desks."

"Unattended remote assistance."

"I would not want to tell other companies about it because it is so powerful, it does so much, and it makes me look so good."

"LogMeIn Central allows numerous active clients, say... 50, to use licenses for remotely accessing a computer from home, taking advantage of all the solution's built-in security features."

"It saves us drive time, we don't have to go to clients. We can just use remote access."

"The initial setup was very easy."

"​The initial setup was simple."

"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."

"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."

"Being able to remote access my computer means I can work at night from my house."

"The most valuable feature is having it in a central location, all the different groups, and being able to ad-hoc or at will log on to whichever computer system I need to get to from a central spot."

"Technical support was able to address everything that I asked in a timely, responsible, satisfactory manner."

"​It must have been straightforward. My IT person set it up for me. It is a friendly program."

"You don't have to remember the password and the login all the time. Once you get it in there, it's in there, and you can go about your business."

"Compared to other products, I feel that their biggest weakness has been customer service. They are very nice, but things take forever to resolve. It has been a major issue there. Otherwise, we're happy. We haven't moved away from them because we haven't found anybody with comparable pricing for our business model."

"Sometimes it just fails to load."

"I have had issues where LogMeIn has not been useful, then we have not been able to work that day. This happens probably two or three times a year."

"The screen. Make it clearer. The screen resolutions don't always line up. So clarity of the screen, and speed."

"Our clients are having issues with printing."

"LogMeIn Rescue could be made a lot easier where you could just tell the person where to go and log in, and they could just log in. Or even make it simpler where you could just send a file to a person and they would click on it; just something easier. The way they have it right now, it's not easy."

"The initial load is terribly slow and often has delays with the login page loading."

"It needs backwards compatibility for non-Microsoft-supported operating systems, for example, XP and 2003. In situations where I have no options but to run older operating systems, I would like for it to be backwards compatible."

"The high pricing of the product is its only shortcoming that needs improvement."

"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."

"The only issue is that they could have a tier between 10 seats and 50."

"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."

"Unfortunately, LogMeIn is a long ways from being perfect. It has a lot of really great features, though they don't always work well."

"It would be helpful if there were more things that you could do outside of having to log into the machine, such as being able to raise a command line and reboot the computer if, for whatever reason, it doesn't want to let me in."

"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."

"It really is an expensive product for me.​"

"I complain about the price all the time. It's gone up from relatively inexpensively to, right now, about $2000 a year for me, based upon the number of machines I have. You say $2000 is not that bad, but the price has jumped up significantly over the past few years. They went three or four years without any price increases, and then they did a dramatic increase, three or four times the annual fee, two years in a row. But last year and this year it has been pretty stable."

"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. ​"

"Pricing is a little on the expensive side, compared to what TeamViewer has offered."

"The solution's price is reasonable."

"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 is a little pricey. I have more than five seats, so I pay a $1000/year."

"Having to spend so much money on remote access is what I feel to be a necessary evil."

"It is expensive, but in the long run we still come out ahead, because it saves us so much labor and downtime driving from one location to the other. In the end it's well worth the expense."

"If you subscribe the package of 100 Agents, but install 5, you are still paying for the 100 agent package."

"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."

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

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

"I did not deal with the financial aspect but my impression is that they are more expensive."

"It is very good."
