Find out in this report how the two Remote Access solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."It is a scalable solution...The technical support team of the solution is very good."
"Scalability is great. We have been able to grow as a corporation due in part to this type of solution."
"Technical support has been excellent."
"One of the features that I like most about this software is that it has a very intuitive, simple, and versatile interface that makes it easy to use and configure."
"It is easy to install the Endpoint Remote Access VPN client to different platforms."
"The team has full visibility of the users that connect allowing them to keep control of who is in the network and what data they are allowing to come in and out."
"The safety of online interactions when working with this product has enabled members to convene productive meetings without fear of being attacked."
"I like the fact that Remote Access allows the administrator to control and manage things. It makes things smoother, and it has been an excellent experience."
"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."
"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."
"User interface."
"Technical support was able to address everything that I asked in a timely, responsible, satisfactory manner."
"You don't have to remember the password and the login all the time. Once you get it in there, it's in there, and you can go about your business."
"I can copy information and put it into a presentation that I may be putting together at another location."
"The remote services feature is definitely the most valuable, along with the capability to print remotely."
"Being able to remote access my computer means I can work at night from my house."
"The main area for improvement is pricing. Another area could be integrating MFA authentication directly into the solution instead of using separate benchmark tools for implementation."
"You have no ability to reserve a total number of licenses. The VPN user licenses are assigned per gateway, and if you enable MEP function is not so easy to size the gateway licenses."
"Sometimes it causes the consumption of machine resources, and also improves the scanning since they consume many resources in the clients' machines."
"We encounter challenges for the product’s installation and troubleshooting processes compared to other VPN products."
"The maximum it is giving us is only 5 licenses and if you need more, they must be purchased separately."
"The connection has gotten less smooth as the number of users increases. The issue is that the logs fill up quickly. Too many users are connecting remotely. It worked great when we only had a few remote connections. Now, it is disconnecting people and dropping the internet connection."
"The ability to allow split-tunneling while still following our corporate policy needs to be on the table."
"The authentication that we handle is through a .p12 certificate, however, we have integrated it with a 2MFA service through another provider. Something that could improve Check Point is if it had its own 2MFA service through a blade or some sort of application."
"It does go down sometimes. You try to login, it tells you the workdesk computer is not available. It does kick you off a lot."
"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."
"Everything has to be done over the web, via email, or something like that. You can't talk to a human being. That bothers me a lot."
"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. "
"Remote Access for external and internal customers."
"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."
"Unfortunately, LogMeIn is a long ways from being perfect. It has a lot of really great features, though they don't always work well."
"At certain times of the day, during the "rush hour," it's very slow. I don't know if it's the latency of the internet or the amount of people on it in the afternoon at 4:00, 5:00pm. Getting data transferred takes a longer time than other times of the day."
