Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"This product "just works" (without fail) and is dead-easy for clients to connect with.""The jump to feature function is the most valuable to us as it allows us to directly remote control customers.""We rarely need support for anything, but when we do, they are on it and always helpful.""I like Remote Support's ability to connect to a system without end-user interaction. A support engineer can log in to the system if a user is stuck and doesn't know where to go. This is helpful when conference room computers get locked down and the user can't access the guest OS.""The most valuable feature of the solution concerns our company's main use case, which is for connection to our remote clients.""I would rate the technical support as a nine out of 10. They are polite, quick, and good with follow-ups.""One of the largest values that we get from Bomgar Remote Support tool is the ability to assist our drivers with their mobile devices. We were unable to do this previously.""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."

"The whole product solves the privileged access management challenge for our company. We have a secure tunnel, a secure session manager, and automatic logging of sessions, which is good for forensic purposes. We have a rich level of logs and can trace what happened on which machine and see who did what.""The Transparent Mode is the number one advantage of the product.""There are numerous valuable data protection features, including the content and information that offer us more scalable protection as needed.""Safeguard has the ability to record and retrieve in the full-video format.""It offers high availability and enables end users to deploy the solution with 99.999 percent uptime, which is crucial in an enterprise environment with a large number of endpoints.""We use the solution’s “transparent mode” feature for privileged sessions. It is very easy because it is only a simple configuration for our users. We don't have to modify our network. We install it, configure it, and it works. So, it is super easy. The rollout for our users is seamless.""The system is easy to manage, as it is not a system that you will change everything all of a sudden. It evolves most of the time with customer requests.""The solution transparently integrates into the infrastructure and users do not notice it. I would give this feature the highest rating."

Cons
"Static notes for hosts: If I could enter notes on a Jump Client and have them appear every time I connect to that Client, it would be a huge benefit.""Lacks some kind of voice communication option.""We sometimes have trouble accessing servers because of credentialing and multifactor authentication issues with PAM.""​The possibility to integrate a chatbot would take this product to the next level​.""In the next release, I would like remote access to Chrome included.""The screen annotation tools could be expanded. I would like to see a text/typing annotation tool.""I would also like to see better support of Apple devices while using a Windows remote support console.""It is expensive. Its initial setup was also a little bit involved, but it was nothing that we couldn't eventually handle. Currently, it has the ability to share screens. Somebody having an issue with their phone can share their screen with a technician sitting at a computer. It would be nice to also be able to control phones remotely, but this could be a limitation of a phone's operating system."

More BeyondTrust Remote Support Cons →

"Something for One Identity to look at is having integration guidelines for how to logically group accounts.""The main point regarding the user experience is that Safeguard has two separate management consoles.""We would like to be able to generate certificate signing requests (CSRs) from the interface for certificates.""The SPS could be a lot easier to administrate and the parts should be unified, from a design perspective, so that I can recognize the systems as being part of the same package. They feel like they have been forced together.""There is room for improvement in the launch module. They built in a launch button but they don't have effective instructions for configuring it to allow it to launch an RDP session. They're working on that, but the button is in the live product. If they were going to install something that wasn't useful, they should have just disabled it and not rolled it out with the product.""On a scale of one to ten, the stability is an eight.""For some users, the physical appliance has been a bit buggy.""We can't review or audit HTTP and HTTPS. This functionality should be added so that we can review and audit HTTP and HTTPS."

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."
  • More BeyondTrust Remote Support Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "Setup cost, pricing and licensing are all very expensive."
  • "Our licensing costs are on a yearly basis."
  • "It was definitely cheaper than the other two products that we evaluated."
  • "They offer a fair price for a robust solution."
  • "The full license is expensive but if you plan to use it in a big organization then it is the best option because it is more flexible."
  • "It is a bit on the pricey side, but you get what you pay for. You don't want to get anything too cheap because then you get cheap stuff and cheap support. That really never helps anybody."
  • "The pricing is about $80,000 per 100 servers. There are few elective costs."
  • "We have a yearly license. The cost depends on how much a company wants to invest in technology. In our organization, we believe in modern digitization and automation processes so we found it affordable. One Identity was not that much less than other solutions and it is not a cheap solution. There were number of cheaper solutions. However, it's the most effective, according to our evaluation."

    Reviews from Real Users

    Below are some reviews and helpful feedback written by BeyondTrust Remote Support users.

    A Cybersecurity Architect at a tech vendor says, “The most valuable features are the ease of deployment, performance, pre and post-sales support, the vast majority of the localization they have done and the solution provider that they support. You can't compete with TeamViewer or any other similar products. It's completely in a class of its own.”

    An Enterprise Service Desk Systems Manager at a manufacturing company comments, "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."

    PeerSpot user Mark B., Sr VP of Business Operations at Networking Technologies and Support, Inc., explains that he thinks the solution is “Great for delivering end-user support, good at recording sessions, and very stable.


    One Identity Safeguard manages and monitors privileged access, enhancing security with features like automatic session recording, real-time monitoring, and credential rotation. It integrates seamlessly, supports compliance with audit trails, and improves operational efficiency across organizations. This robust platform significantly bolsters security protocols while controlling sensitive operations.
