Pros

“It is needed to create a new remote connection to use the funtionality to copy and paste from the source or the destination.”
SQ

Sebastián Q.

Cybersecurity Manager SR

“I like most that it is web-based VPN portal that is more than just a VPN client - but also supports applets for applications”
VL

Vince L.

Director Application Development

“The admin and initial configuration can be a little confusing but once it's up, it's more or less set it and forget it.”
DN

David N.

IT Operations Manager

Pros

“I would recommend Admin by Request to anyone looking to streamline privilege management as this software has really checked all the boxes in terms of security, convenience, and auditing capabilities”
MS

Mason S.

Lead IT Systems Engineer

“We have the ability now to approve requests for app installs remotely or to give administrator sessions if someone from the IT team is providing support on the device”
DM

Dane M.

Head of ICT

“The process to purchase Admin by Request took a bit more time and effort than I would have hoped.”
MS

Mason S.

Lead IT Systems Engineer

Cons

“Sometimes when the remote connections are delays or have networking problems the ability to copy and paste is interrumped.”
SQ

Sebastián Q.

Cybersecurity Manager SR

“When trying to assist MAC users we always had issues connecting due to some security error that would not let us screen share.”
TB

Terris B.

Web Support

“Expanded Security WeaknessesRemote access is a blade that cuts both ways with regards to framework security. Despite the fact that it accompanies information encryption, access controls, and action logging, it ends up presenting extra weaknesses that could be utilized as assault focuses.”
SR

Subba R.

Manager Operations

Cons

“On rare occasions, it doesn't work as expected and I must uninstall it, log in as admin, install software, then reinstall AdminByRequest.”
JE

James E.

IT Manager

“The mobile app while useful seems to be buggy and sometimes an afterthought.”
MH

Michael H.

IT Helpdesk Technician

“Some programs are difficult to pre-approve, so you get interrupted with a request for approval.”
