It saves me travelling costs as I don't have to be on site to repair or provide support to my clients, thus saving me money and time.
Pros
Controller meetings start rapidly.Specialist establishments rush to finish.On premise server refreshes rush to finish, commonly in under 10 minutes.Impromptu help meetings are natural and simple to begin
Cons
the controller task bar bugs out more than it ought towhile doing a far off meeting from the help tab, possibly a few times it prompts for adminstrator access when this entrance is required. more often than not it simply dark screen when UAC input is required.it doesn't scale well when multiple screens are engaged with a far off meeting
Reasons for Switching to ConnectWise ScreenConnect

ScreenConnect is Good, But Could be Better

Very good overall and would recommend. Their partnership with BrightGauge needs lots of improvement from the reporting side, but ScreenConnect itself has been very good.
Pros
It's great for remote access into another users computer, even if just one of your own. Support is good and there is no downtime.
Cons
Features like "Screen Blanking" can be very clunky. Often when I set the remote screen to be blanked out, I will have a session go to sleep, and when I get back on the screen blank setting has been disabled. This is highly frustrating when needin privacy in a remote setting.

We've been using this product for several years and it's the best remote support tool I've used to date. The ability to share multiple monitors, transfer files and use the backstage environment are all critical to my teams daily success in providing remote support.
Pros
My team and I use Connectwise ScreenConnect daily to provide remote support, diagnostics, patching, virus remediation, etc.. It's fast, very flexible, provides a shell environment called backstage that allows us to tweak computers without impacting the end user.
Cons
There's nothing currently that I dislike about the product.

ConnectWise ScreenConnect Positives
Reviewed on 30/01/2024
Pros
ScreenConnect with CW is our process when I need to see what a user is doing on their end to better understand their issue. Starting a session, have the user join the session and facilitate seeing their information is seamless. It is also very easy to disconnect so the user knows I am no longer in their computer seeing anything of concern as a notification is sent to the user I have disconnected.
Cons
Nothing at this time since using ConnectWise ScreenConnect is an easy process and meets my needs.

ConnectWise ScreenConnect - The Wise choice for remote support
Reviewed on 26/09/2023
Pros
This product made it much easier for our department to support teachers and administrators in a more timely manner. We have 4 techs to handle 11 schools plus the main administration building so this has reduced response times greatly when needing to install a printer or software for staff member.
Cons
Not enough options for sorting the devices. I can filter connections by device name, user account name or even IP address, etc but we really would like to have an option to sort the devices based on last contact date and time so we can monitor more closely the devices that are not being used in our schools.

The single best remote access tool
Reviewed on 26/05/2023

Great, we deployed ScreenConnect and never looked back. There's been zero reason too.
Pros
Small, clean, easily implemented and integrates well with our tool stack. It's pretty much everything we could as for from a tool like this and includes use auditing and recordings to meet any compliance requirements we've encountered.
Cons
Very little. The only real challenges we have are deployment and required end user actions for environments where it is not deployed. Honestly I don't know what they could even do about that as it's neither a deployment tool itself nor can they circumvent browser and OS security to be able to eliminate the necessity or end user actions in certain circumstances.

We decided to buy ConnectWise because of its reasonable pricing and high service quality; the ConnectWise platform has been around for quite some time and is highly recommended. ConnectWise's platform allows the same PC to be reached from any other q if required, saving time on solution issues affecting any enterprise computer. The highest-quality, most cost-effective, and most user-friendly remote access tool available.
Pros
We appreciate its user-friendliness and the fact that we were always able to get a prompt response from their helpful support team, suggesting options that would work best for us. ConnectWise is one of the best remote access solutions because of its encryption feature, which keeps our data safe while being transmitted and received via the platform.
Cons
The ConnectWise platform has provided us with far more advantages than drawbacks, but we have noticed that the mobile version is often much slower than the desktop version.
