Solution elevates team collaboration and manages remote support efficiently
For me as a user in the service desk, there is already a lot of functionality in the product. I don't have any specific ideas for improvement on that side. Some technical aspects could be improved, particularly in product management. For the end user, enhancements do not seem necessary at the moment. They could probably give the technician client a more modern interface, but the crucial factor is stable connectivity in a remote session. I see more potential for improvement on the administration side, like better transparency when a patch is installed. It would be useful for administrators to see the version and patch levels of the product easily. BeyondTrust could also enhance their quality control process before releasing a new build to ensure no new bugs are present. This is a common issue among software manufacturers.
Oleksiy-Zaionchkovskyy - PeerSpot reviewer
Easy to install but needs to provide better server management and organization
I would like to see better server management. You have to know exactly what you're looking for to get the right server. Working with 100 or 200 server installations is comfortable, but not thousands. The scalability isn't very good because it's complicated. I would like more organization. For instance, they could add a table that matches an account to many servers at once. There could also be better education services. They don't have any certification program, at least in Ukraine, so the training is complicated and divided into different pieces. Cisco, for example, has a great education program that starts from the basics and progresses to advanced features.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"We have not encountered any issues with stability. Updates leave us with less than 30 minutes of downtime."
"It's very secure, and it works very well. I like their remote support feature. It can be used for our clients' desktops or anywhere where the client can be working. I'd have to say the product is very good. It's a strong solution for us."
"The most valuable feature of the solution concerns our company's main use case, which is for connection to our remote clients."
"We like that it records the remote sessions. If a technician is logged into a user remotely to fix any problem, it records the decision."
"This product "just works" (without fail) and is dead-easy for clients to connect with."
"It has allowed us to quickly address the needs and issues of our end users."
"I personally like the ability to share files with other machines."
"Bomgar has given us the ability to manage the majority of our calls from a remote location making response times quicker and more efficient."
"it's perfect to control and administer computers in our company."
"Fudo PAM was the most flexible and intuitive interface out of all of the products in the PAM sector."
"The main benefit of the solution is that it's very easy to set up. It only takes a couple of hours to install everything."
"We are convinced that Fudo PAM is better than competing products like WALLIX."
"Session recording and password management are the two main aspects."
 

Cons

"There are not enough product partners in Turkey, making it difficult for me to get assistance."
"​The possibility to integrate a chatbot would take this product to the next level​."
"I would also like to see better support of Apple devices while using a Windows remote support console."
"The ability to connect mobile devices could be improved. Smartphones and tablets are becoming more prevalent throughout corporate environments. From time to time, we have problems connecting to those devices. You can't stage the application to connect without a user's input. You had to guide them through enabling permissions for the app. Then they need to enter the URL and session key. It would be great if they could streamline that process."
"It needs better Linux support. We have had issues with Ubuntu specifically."
"I would like to see more integration with iOS devices along with better connectivity and communication with these devices."
"Although the learning curve is steep, the product is well-documented.​"
"There were a few employee devices that failed during the initial deployment, which required a second deployment."
"The stability is not very good."
"I would like to see better server management. You have to know exactly what you're looking for to get the right server."
"Fudo PAM’s scalability is not very strong."
"The configuration is difficult."
"Professional training and certification would be great."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The licensing is concurrent and we spend about $10,000. It's my understanding that there aren't any extra costs beyond just the straight licensing."
"We pay every year for the box, and there are no additional costs."
"​The product maintenance and licensing costs are on the higher end, so I would carefully review how many licenses you need. The concurrent license model is helpful in this manner.​"
"I highly recommend using the tech team properly trained by Bomgar. This will help the tool be more useful."
"Pricing is reasonable for what the service is offering. If it is looked at from a purely remote control perspective then it might appear expensive, but it is the wider functionality that should be considered too."
"It is not the most cost effective solution on the market."
"I would like to order more licenses. This would allow us to support more end users concurrently."
"Although the upfront cost is a bit overwhelming, the appliance will pay for itself in less than two years."
"The pricing is great. We've been given discounts that make it cheaper than using any other solution."
