Remote-access system support tool for IT professionals

About Dameware

Dameware is a cloud-based tool that helps IT professionals deliver support and issue resolution remotely. Key features include remote access to sleeping/powered-off computers, system information and session details. The application uses encryption protocols, two factor authentication and multilevel permissions to secure user data. A communication module enables IT teams to connect with end users and discuss issues via chat and VoIP. Dameware’s ticketing system keeps track of support requests and lets IT staff add notes and assign tasks.

Dameware comes with a system information functionality which gathers data such as BIOS, device details, Windows event logs and updates. It allows network teams to store and share troubleshooting information such as screenshots and session records. Support staff can view multiple monitors in a workstation and use a switch to toggle between screens. With the reporting engine, managers can track the help desk team’s performance on the basis of technician information and an end-user survey summary.


Key benefits of Dameware

• Dameware resolves issues with a low turnaround time as it connects to workstations within seconds.

• Support teams can access an end-user’s desktop remotely and can transfer files and fix problems.

• Dameware provides managers with granular access control so that they can monitor team members that access remote desktops.

• Support teams can use Intel VPro AMT technology with computers on sleep mode and reboot machines that are powered down.

• Teams can use Dameware’s chat feature to discuss issues with the end-user and resolve them more effectively.

Used Dameware for remote support of 70+ machines

Reviewed on 04/05/2018

good price allowing for remote user access

good price allowing for remote user access

Pros

Dameware lets me mange 70+ computers in 12 locations all from my desktop. I can install updates and fix any user issues.

The best part is i can watch a user with out them knowing. This has allowed us to catch youtube and facebook watchers. The software is easy to use and a decent price.

It also supports UAC so you don't need any end user help. With remote install we don't have to travel to any office locations.

Cons

The interface is from the 90's. Even the latest version has an old look to it. Everything works it just looks old not a big con at all.

Cons

I'm sure there could be more functionality with this software but it's great for people that just want to use it for basic reasons.
