Pros

Using ISL daily to help my work colleagues is easy and funny. I like making groups of computers and getting all organizated.
Easy and great remote support solution , secure and stable for our remote connection needs.
Having tried many other remote products finding one that has all the features I required and delivering them at such a competitive price was a natural winner for me.

Pros

The best features are the ability to obtain diagnostic information on the host machine with the click of a button and the ability to have other support team members join a session.
I used this software for years and have seen it through many different variations but it definitely remains my favourite. Its ease of use and complex features are made functional and fun to use.
What I liked most about this software is the ease of use and the powerful UI based controls when running on your mobile device.

Cons

The client interface on the website is increasingly ambiguous - we find often clients download the wrong code - the client side.
Switching monitors is also a drag as it's also very, very slow to display the content of each individual monitor.
It is a little bit difficult to set up the On Prem version and personalize it.

Cons

Recently this issue has got worse and worse with no resolution for months and now has us looking for different remote support software.
I'm sure all of this info is in the software information and I haven't read it but I have privacy issues and always worry about people logging onto my computer.
I had major issues when I used this product. Many of my customers had problems opening it up on their computer for me to access remotely.

ISL Online

Reviewed 3 years ago

I haven't had really any dealings with the company or representatives myself, but the software just works. Can't comment on their support myself as I haven't had the need to. So that's either a good thing or bad thing, depending on how you look at it.

Pros

Being able to seamlessly remote on to a workstation or a server to resolve issues is such a life saver, especially now IT Techs have to resolve issues with clients from home. It's made life a lot easier.

Cons

Updating the ISL Light software on a Mac seems bit cumbersome. You have to re-download the software manually from their website and it isn't always easy to find. This is either a limitation on Mac or just the way ISL has developed it. It would be better if there was just an "Update" option within the settings of ISL to automatically get the latest update.

Work Great for us.

Reviewed 4 years ago

It is very helpful and pays for itself every time we can resolve an issue without sending a tech on location. Especially during the COVID 19 pandemic.

Pros

It is easy for our support staff to use and implement, and end users seem to have minimal difficulty using it.

Cons

I wish there was a mobile client for the chat feature.

ISL Light - A Convenient Remote Desktop Solution

Reviewed 2 years ago

Overall, ISL Light is a great tool for remote support. It's fast, reliable, and easy to use. I definitely recommend it to anyone in need of remote desktop solutions.

Pros

I've been using ISL Light for remote support and it's been a lifesaver. The interface is user-friendly and the connection is super fast. I love that I can access any computer from anywhere and resolve issues quickly.

Cons

The pricing is a bit steep for smaller teams, but I guess you get what you pay for. Also, there have been a few instances where the connection gets laggy, but it's not a constant problem.

Vendor response

Hi Valentina, thanks a lot for your valuable feedback and recommendation!

ISL Light - Easy to use, Great Package of Features and a Great Price

Reviewed 3 years ago

Solving problems quickly - I couldn't do without your software now!

Pros

Remote support was certainly vital during the pandemic and customers really appreciate this tool even now. I can offer support without having to visit a customer. Sharing the screen lets me help them to solve problems and they can show me their issues. Remote Access and Reports have also been very useful. Guides are easy to run through and chat support is great

Cons

Working on Apple devices was a little difficult at first, but the guides really helped resolve things! Sometimes clients find it a little difficult to setup the Remote session but we normally get there in the end!
