Pros

“It minimizes lag for the technicians, connects instantly, and has significantly improved our ability to resolve technical support tickets quickly and efficiently.”

Shyam K.

Team Leader

“It also includes useful features such as file transfer, session recording and unattended access, which makes supporting users much easier.”

Josh D.

IT Support Engineer

“While it works great on windows stations and servers, the updates for the MacOS are sometimes slow to come out to support or fixe issues with the latest builds.”

Philippe C.

IT Director

Pros

“It helps me to be able to log in to the work computer to pull reports, troubleshoot and train those struggling with something in the office.”

Michelle D.

Admin, Marketing, Webmaster, Bookkeeper, Other

“The user interface is very simple, and the learning curve is almost nonexistent, making it accessible even for beginners.”

Brooks L.

Education and Learning Administrator

“Chrome Remote Desktop is an amazing application designed by Google that allows users to access another device that is connected to the internet. ”

Parker W.

Teacher

Cons

“From moving away from the initial .exe download for obvious reasons and replacing that with ZIP files made it cumbersome for end users who are not in any way tech savvy, to going back to an .exe and now being detected in Windows 10 pro and Windows 11 Pro environments as a virus and won't allow download or if it does allow download, won't install. ”

Todd W.

IT Manager

“Their documentation is awful and the turnover at ConnectWise leaves the inexperienced staff a little over their heads when it comes to complicated configuration needs/issues.”

Patrick S.

IT Manager

“Feel like I'm dealing with Microsoft anymore in respect to them changing things and not fully testing before deploying, then leaving us, THE PAYING CUSTOMER, to figure out how to continue to make this product work. ”

Todd W.

IT Manager

Cons

“I use a lot of CRM tools like different motive, DAT, and realtime monitoring sites for my work and it crashes quiet a bit too often for my liking which is an inconvenience”
