Head of Infrastructure at a financial services firm with 11-50 employees

Responsive support, a straightforward setup, and great endpoint management

There have been a few bugs. I would hope there would be a direct integration to the various cloud solutions, like Intune. Right now, ManageEngine is a separate solution. It doesn't integrate with Intune, AirWatch, or MobileIron in the cloud. It doesn't have this integration with the respective cloud solutions, and if it could have this kind of integration, it would be better. I wouldn't deploy ManageEngine as a standalone since it works better as a compliment rather than an entire solution.

Remote sessions have become smoother and now resolve end user issues more comfortably

One feedback I have is regarding the voice feature. Whenever we take a remote session, the voice gets enabled automatically, and we have to mute it from our side. A pop-up asking whether we want to continue with the voice or not would be helpful when accessing a remote session. The audio system could be improved because sometimes we are not aware that we need to unmute the team while taking a remote session. The end user can hear us talking with colleagues, and we sometimes forget that we have unmuted while taking a remote session. If a pop-up appears when we take a remote session with the end user asking us to unmute ourselves, that would be better for us to proceed. When the pop-up appears, we can directly mute ourselves, and the end user will not be able to hear the background noise from the office. Since many colleagues are taking remote sessions and talking to end users simultaneously, there is often significant background noise. Having this pop-up appear when accessing a remote session with the end user would be a helpful update.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Easy to manage and it looks good."

"The endpoint management is great."

"The most valuable feature was the patching system to apply Windows or other programs and the ability to install operating systems in computers using the network. Additionally, it is easy to use."

"ManageEngine Desktop Central MSP has different features and it uses one agent to execute the features of the application. In this case, the remote control, distribution software, deployment, patch management, and configuration in different systems. ManageEngine Desktop Central MSP has multi-platforms. They have recently implemented new features, such as endpoint security that incorporates vulnerability management and browser security."

"The interface is intuitive, easy to use, and has a low learning curve."

"The solution is easy to understand. For example, when you remoting to the user's system, you don't have that option to only log in. On this product, you are connecting to the user's computer, it prompts you for what you want to do. You can select that you want to assist the user. The user on the other side will receive a prompt stating that there is someone trying to connect to your system, they can accept or decline the connection. Overall, the solution is easy to connect to the user's system."

"The features that I have found most valuable are the threats and patches element of it. We have done quite a lot of testing compared to other vendors with identifying the vulnerabilities. This means a lot more accuracy in terms of the patches and making sure it's all up to date."

"I use the product for remote access. We are IT service providers. In case anybody has problems with their computer, we use the solution to check them."

"The product is very stable."

"The stability seems to be pretty good so far."

"Almost all the features are valuable to me, like the scalable feature and its highly interactive software."

"The most valuable feature of this solution is Remote Access."

"It is a scalable solution...The initial setup of TeamViewer Remote Management was very simple."

"Transferring files and viewing data work well with TeamViewer Remote Management."

"It's stable and reliable."

Cons

"When there is a new user at a store, for example, you have to create it in the ManageEngine Desktop Central MSP AD but the process could be better. They call us with the user's information but if it was possible for them to populate the information when they log the user on IM, and when clicking on ADManager in the system, the information could populate there. We would then only have to add a little more information which would save time."

"Since this is an on-premise solution we had to update it a couple of times, and because we needed to use a command line to the server, it was not very easy, at least at that time to update the solution. The cloud version of this solution does not have this problem, but on the premise version, it was fairly cumbersome to apply to the Desktop Central server. This process could be made easier. This was the only issue I found with my colleague."

"The partnership models and subscriptions can be improved, as regional master resellers sometimes hog the space."

"Stability is sometimes negatively affected by updates."

"Although they say it is an enterprise solution, we don't have 24/seven human support. All we have is only 24/five support available from the vendor."

"I have found ManageEngine Desktop Central MSP has many different network issues. Additionally, they need to incorporate more features, they are lacking add-ons."

"Right now, ManageEngine is a separate solution. It doesn't integrate with Intune, AirWatch, or MobileIron in the cloud."

"I'm not sure if the security is ideal. They could work to improve it."

"When a user is engaged in a chat on a system with a remote user present, copying the chat content isn't easy."

"I want TeamViewer Remote Management to incorporate more integrations."

"The security of the solution could be more secure."

"There are some challenges with compatibility."

"There could be stable connectivity for the product’s current technology."

"The solution is a little expensive."

"Maybe TeamViewer could be improved with more scalability."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"This product has an easy setup, good support, and a good price."

"This product is very cheap compared to others."

"When we sold the solution to one customer, we found out the customer found out that one of their requirements was not being solved because the license only applies to five computers. We all thought at the time the current license that the customer bought covers the 600 computers because of this problem, the license model could be explained better and could be further improved."

"ManageEngine Desktop Central MSP is a less expensive solution than competitors in Latin America."

"Its price is a little high as compared to other solutions."

"We pay a yearly licensing fee."

"We pay for a yearly license."

"Users need to pay a yearly license for TeamViewer Remote Management."

"Our licenses for TeamViewer Remote Management are being managed directly by our procurement team. If we need more licenses they handle it."

"The solution's license is expensive."

"I have used the free version of the solution."

"There are no charges to be paid for the solution since I use it for personal use."
