LogMeIn Central vs LogMeIn Pro comparison

"Using the product, we provide a quicker response when supporting customers.​"

"It allows you to transfer along with many other functions."

"This solution has allowed granular permission access to machines, very consistent and solid most of the time."

"No issues with stability. It has worked on every platform I’ve tried it on, and not interfered with anything."

"​The initial setup was simple."

"One of the improvements they made was a LogMeIn Central client - that was a couple years ago - and that has been great. You no longer have to use their web interface. There's actually a client that you can install, which lists all of the machines and servers that you can access. That works really well."

"It saves us drive time, we don't have to go to clients. We can just use remote access."

"I have called for help to their technical support, and they have been extremely helpful."

"It's the only product I need to be able to get to my office Outlook, to get my emails off that particular computer. Going the other way, sometimes I'll go to my home computer to do adjustments to my accounting system there."

"The most valuable feature is having it in a central location, all the different groups, and being able to ad-hoc or at will log on to whichever computer system I need to get to from a central spot."

"Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."

"The biggest thing is the flexibility, you can use it as long as you can get an internet connection. You can use it pretty much anywhere you're at. It just makes it a lot easier. We are a small staff, and if nobody is in the office, LogMeIn gives us secure access to get in there."

"The ability to easily connect back and retrieve data from the computer systems that I have."

"The remote services feature is definitely the most valuable, along with the capability to print remotely."

"They recently included the Kaspersky Security Suite as part of their Central Product."

"Being able to remote access my computer means I can work at night from my house."

"They should provide intermediate device limit options for the users."

"It is easy to get locked out, which is something that needs to be improved."

"The screen. Make it clearer. The screen resolutions don't always line up. So clarity of the screen, and speed."

"The update issues are an absolute pain. It says it is updating things, but the updates do not go through, and you try your hardest to get the updates to go through and they don't. You go to the PC, but there is no update there, then you go back and it says there are updates."

"The initial load is terribly slow and often has delays with the login page loading."

"Do not use the technical support."

"There are some screens that are just ugly and difficult to manipulate."

"Our clients are having issues with printing."

"The only issue is that they could have a tier between 10 seats and 50."

"The user interface needs improvement. Mostly, it's pretty intuitive for what I need to do, but the extra elements to it seem very complex, so I don't really try to even use those. For example, document sharing, file stuff. I can do the log-in part, but the additional features are kind of complex."

"With Windows 10 we've had some issues with it crashing, and certain antivirus products cause it to fail. For the most part it's stable, but we do have an occasional crash mainly related to new operating systems. The new Microsoft Server and the new Windows operating systems sometimes have issues with it. But for the most part, in anything under, say, Windows 7, Windows 8, those seem to be pretty stable, and with the Microsoft Server 2012 and below, it's all stable. And I don't necessarily think it's LogMeIn. I think it may be Microsoft, to be honest with you."

"Unfortunately, LogMeIn is a long ways from being perfect. It has a lot of really great features, though they don't always work well."

"I would enhance the product, so if I had two screens in front of me, it could connect to two computers simultaneously with the program. For example, if I had a computer at location A and a computer at location B and I am sitting at location C, it might be nice for me to be able to be connected to all three of those computers and move data between those three during one session. ​"

"Maybe they can come up with a plan if you only use it for login and, occasionally, printing. Maybe you can charge what you used to charge and then if we want to use it for files or things that are more sophisticated, charge a little more."

"As far as the usability of it, I'd like to see if printing could be enabled in the basic version or the medium version. Some of the remote printing isn't available unless you go to the premium versions, and that's disappointing."

"It's never cheap enough. If we got it for free, that would be perfect. But I know it's not and won't be free. It's always going to be too expensive for me because we're a small company."

"The solution's price is reasonable."

"The price needs improvement. It is ridiculously expensive now, and no features have really changed."

"It used to be a lot cheaper but then the price shot up (doubled over the span of two years), but it's hard to switch, and most competing products are similarly priced anyway."

"The only thing I found is that they've gotten very, very expensive over the years. I started out with about about 100 users on it. Two years ago it was about $600 for 100 users. Now, it's that price for 25 users."

"We are an educational institution, so anything to make it cheaper would be better because we don’t grow money on trees."

"The price is a little high but it's competitive. The licensing process is fairly easy."

"It's getting more expensive and we are starting to evaluate other products. It's starting to become unaffordable."

"It's probably worth the value, but the price increases over the last five years are getting harder to justify."

"To be honest with you, I use it just for login and the prices are getting too high so we're going to look for an alternative solution. It used to be a couple of hundred dollars a year, now it's like $600 a year. We're definitely going to be switching shortly. Every year they have significant increases."

"I am very happy to say that I have been very satisfied with the LogMeIn product, except for the escalation of the price. ​"

"If you subscribe the package of 100 Agents, but install 5, you are still paying for the 100 agent package."

"Pricing has been going up for just going back and forth between two computers. Last year I called and complained, they gave me a deal. This year, it's gone up to $350. I'm looking for a new source. It seems to be getting expensive for me to look back and forth. Come up with a different level of service for just communicating with two computers; I use it, maybe, five minutes a day."

"Lower the price for an individual user. ​"

"I did not deal with the financial aspect but my impression is that they are more expensive."

"My company needs to make annual payments toward the licensing cost of the product. There are no extra costs in addition to the standard license fees of the product."

"I think it's competitively priced. I haven't priced it out since we started with it, but the yearly subscription fee is worth it. It's not outrageous, and I believe that it's worth it for our company to pay the fees for the use of the product."
