Always dependable. It helps us with support and maintains regular access to shared resources.

Pros

It provides an easy to use platform to remote onto our computers to manage them or assist users with support.

Cons

Configuration is a bit complicated and granular. Not easy to turn off features that lower graphics and video quality that are intended to minimize bandwidth, which is not a limiting factor for us.

Overall, we like the product. It has helped us to better understand learner issues and assist them in a much more timely manner.

Pros

We primarily use the product to view learners' screens when they are training at a remote locations. The product is extremely helpful in terms of being able to see learners working through practice exercises and diagnose errors in real time and provide guidance.

Cons

The PCs sometimes lose connection with the SoftLink, and we have to work to re-establish before we can assist learners.

Good software, use the gateway option constantly.

Pros

Ease of setup and use. Restricting users via domain group or seperate accounts makes access to it easy.

Some of the controls have been moved in recent updates and that can be frustrating.

I have found the whole experience with NetSupport seamless, friendly, and understanding of our requirements. Despite us probably being one of their smaller clients, they truly care about how the software is working for us operationally and is always open to feedback and eature requests.

Pros

Effortless to use, and easy navigation throughout all applications. Very comprehensive helpguides should we get stuck.

Cons

Initally it was a challenge for me to deploy the software due to ports/IPs needing to be configured, however after a couple of calls with the super friendly and attentive support team, it was swiftly resolved.

[BrowseControl by CurrentWare](https://www.capterra.com/p/218437/BrowseControl/)

We were finding the previous softwares expensive, and/or a total lack of customer support. One of the previous providers only offered live chat support, and would decline to talk with us on the phone. Others we have used in the past have not proved helpful or seemed keen to resolve any technical problems that we encountered. Thankfully, we have had absolutely no technical issues since we deployed NetSupport Manager.

Reasons for choosing NetSupport Manager

Cost. We also wanted to obtain a perpetual licence, and not rent. NetSupport offers this, which majorly influenced my decision to buy from them.

Overall, NetSupport Manager has been great to use and

Pros

It's easy to use and the file transfer feature comes in very handy

Cons

Since the pandemic forced us to move to a hybrid work environment, around half of our devices are no longer using a static IP address. NetSupport seems to have a problem resolving the DNS of the device and won't connect by device name.

Pros

NetSupport allows us to break classrooms into a pool of users. We chose NetSupport because it allows us to view classrooms by the user's login name vs the machine name. This has helped by being able to quickly identify which machine to connect to and allow for efficient support.

Cons

The only improvement I could see if having to manually update the list by users but we understand why we need to add to the list for user mode.
