    My experience implementing Remote Access has been the best since it is a tool with various options and easy to implement. The best thing is that it allows you to record all support sessions and it helps a lot as evidence.

    Pros

    The ease of use and the number of available modules it has to be able to provide correct remote support.

    Cons

    What I liked least was that it doesn't have as many reports on the available machines.

    ManageEngine Remote Access Plus is worth it!

    Overall very pleased so far, I've used ManageEngine products at my place of work so was already familiar with it. I love that it works from the get go, I've tried other software for remote and they always seem to have glitches or so many hurdles to jump to make it work right. It was pretty much install approve and your done.

    Pros

    I love the ability to easily manage your domain and computers in one spot online in the cloud via secure connection. Also, have already tried the IOS app on phone and worked perfect which i can't say about other remote assist apps.

    Cons

    This is more me not reading instructions but I didn't realize you had to approve new connections. So not really a con but it stopped me from seeing new computers till i approved. So actually a plus. One con at least to me is the moment you sign up for anything manageengine you get nonstop emails saying hey you haven't tried this yet. I do like the support but to me it feels more like spam in my inbox. Just let me test.

    I use ManageEngine Remote Access Plus to provide support to the users in my job.

    Pros

    What I most like about ManageEngine Remote Access Plus 10 is the easy to use interface and its features like file transfer and screen recorder, above all the multi-monitor support feature. Also, it provides detailed reports on active remote sessions and tasks performed.

    Cons

    Configuring the ports required for agent-server communication can be complex. In addition, the effectiveness of remote access can be affected by network quality, which can cause delays or interruptions in the connection. Although the interface is simplified, it may require some adaptation time for new users who are not familiar with this type of tool.

    ManageEngine hits a home run!

    From the moment I began using Remote Access Plus, it was clear that ManageEngine designed the setup process with simplicity in mind. The initial configuration was intuitive, requiring only a few steps to get the server up and running. What stands out is how straightforward it was to deploy to client machines. Whether you’re pushing the installation across a small number of endpoints or an entire enterprise, the process is smooth and remarkably fast. Within minutes, Remote Access Plus was functioning on multiple machines, without any need for manual intervention or complex configuration.

    One of the platform’s most beneficial features is its granular control over user roles. Setting up permissions for various IT roles is a breeze. Administrators can easily assign specific permissions based on responsibilities, which ensures that technicians only have access to the tools they need, enhancing both security and productivity. The user interface is well-organized, which makes configuring these roles quick and efficient.

    Remote Access Plus offers a powerful suite of management tools that allows IT technicians to take full control of remote systems. From its dashboard, you can monitor system health, resolve issues, and execute maintenance tasks. The availability of a command line interface (CLI) within the platform is particularly useful for advanced troubleshooting, allowing technicians to execute commands on remote machines without needing to be physically present. For registry edits, the built-in Registry Editor lets you access and modify system configurations with ease, which saves significant time compared to manual methods.

    Pros

    Ease of setup and deployment, configurability, the ability to create roles with different levels of access. The ability to chat, share files, screen record, restart, update the registry, install software, etc. Multi-monitor and OS support.

    Cons

    The setup UI is a little disorganized, but that's on the backend only.

    Alternatives Considered

    Splashtop and Zoho Assist

    Reasons for Choosing ManageEngine Remote Access Plus

    The vendor stopped updating the software. They also had minimal support for multi-monitors and didn't support things like chat, windows management tools, logging, etc.
