Pros
"The most valuable feature of BeyondTrust Remote Support is the ability to control screens remotely.""You can't compete with TeamViewer or any other similar products. It's completely in a class of its own.""Screen sharing, in general, is pretty important for a service desk. Another thing that I have found to be very helpful is that you can also do screen sharing on a cell phone. When people have an issue with their cell phone, it is ordinarily very difficult to troubleshoot the issue. With BeyondTrust Remote Support, you can share the cell phone screen, and somebody can take a look at it remotely. I am not sure if other competing solutions offer this feature. It is pretty user-friendly. It is also good performance-wise.""I personally like the ability to share files with other machines.""Remote Support 16.2 introduced Web Interface for Representative Console.with same functions as Desktop Console.""It has a straightforward setup. Bomgar has created a simple, lightweight deployment process.""The solution has been very stable. We haven't had issues at all. It doesn't crash or freeze. There aren't bugs or glitches either.""We are able to be more effectively connected to computers and servers all over the world."

Cons
"Although the learning curve is steep, the product is well-documented.​""We sometimes have trouble accessing servers because of credentialing and multifactor authentication issues with PAM.""It could be more compatible with other applications. We had trouble with compatibility when it came to Entrust. This is because we had issues with Windows machines when we installed Entrust.""The chat needs to improve. We need to enable set hours for chat support which are separate from the remote support assistance.""The Bomgar representative console could do with modernising. The Web rep console introduced is a marked improvement, but is currently not at feature parity with the thick client. This is being worked on.""The Remote support solution based on Bomgar has physical appliances deployed and leveraged to serve our multiple customers. Aging appliances are going RMA now and then.""I would like to see more integration with iOS devices along with better connectivity and communication with these devices.""They need to ensure that the remote support is compatible with the other cloud solution providers, like Huawei. Currently it is only compatible with Azure, AWS and KVM."

"Product management should be improved.""Privileged Access Suite's interface could be better.""There is a new trend of not having any privileged users or accounts."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "This product provides value for money."
  • "​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.​"
  • "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."
  • "Bomgar has a very fair pricing structure."
  • "Although the upfront cost is a bit overwhelming, the appliance will pay for itself in less than two years."
  • "The setup is complex. Purchase the remote implementation service and make them slow down and work with you."
  • "I would like to order more licenses. This would allow us to support more end users concurrently."
  • "I highly recommend using the tech team properly trained by Bomgar. This will help the tool be more useful."
