Great and easy to use Remote Software
Being able to remotely manage clients on a day to day basis.
PROS- Easy to setup and use. Direct client to site and grab 6 digit code and go. - Unattended client is great for remote access. Just install and system is auto-added to your list - File transfers are as easy as drag and drop and then accept on client side. Can work in the background while files transfer. - Management screen makes it easy to chat with clients and see groups of clients together and their current status - Seeing whether the PC is in use makes interruption a lot less frequent. - Recently fixed issue with controlling multiple clients. (before had to back out and then go back to your list to open a session (was limited to only 1 active session) - Very cost effective versus other solutions.
CONSSadly does not support Macintosh PC's at this time. Has no tablet/phone app like some other remote software (would be nice for remote support on things like Android and Apple tablets)

Great bang for the buck!
I like the simple connecttion to it and the unattended access feature the most. It allows me to connect to my end users easily and quickly.
PROSFixme offers remote admin access to end points that are in the field and not connected to the local domain via VPN or other connection options. This is helpful for setting up and troubleshooting issues on end points. And it is much cheaper price than competitors
CONSSometime the local admin access for restarting as a system service is a bit wonky, its best to setup the PC and unattended access while on the local network to the domain and then kick the device out the door than trying to gain unattended access after the fact. Alsomany competitors have additional functionality to run scripts or gather data about a device in the background without the end user seeing, and Fixme does not offer that from the best I can tell.
Reason for choosing FixMe.IT
My go to for years has been Logmein Rescue, however in my current position I am a 1 man shop so justification for the cost lead me to look for alternatives. When I started the previous IT Manager was using Turbo meeting and it was not easy to get connected. The cost for Fixme and what it provided was enough to take a chance on it, and I am very happy with the product for the price.

does what it needs to, good enough remote experience
ability to logon/logoff, remote reboot, simple UI, simple url visit, multiple sessions running at the same time
CONStoo many clicks required by user to run/accept connections, has trouble with QHD resolution, can't enter credentials to run as admin must be ran as a service
Vendor Response
Hi Juan, 1. If you mean that the remote user needs to click on the 'Accept' prompt when connecting to the expert, we're planning to get rid of this very soon. Please stay tuned for updates. 2. We're unaware of any issues with QHD support. FixMe.IT supports all screen resolutions up to 4K. You can take advantage of the application's scaling settings to adjust the remote screen according to your needs or preferences. Please see this video for more details: https://youtu.be/NoryfEpF-CE 3. You can enter admin credentials on the remote machine. However, certain tasks require the end-user's input by Windows design.

The single most valuable tool in any arsenal
I am able to diagnose and fix my company's hardware and software packages from anywhere at any time.
PROSRocket fast access, unlimited troubleshooting capabilities, real time online status indicators, multiple client lists. Easy to use interface, multiple support sessions can be open at one time. Unattended access to any client machine.
CONSNo ability to force wake a machine on unattended access.
Reason for choosing FixMe.IT
Once I was the ease of installation and use of FixMe, every other support software faded away fast.

Works well at a price that fits my business.
Fairly simple with most of the useful features anyone could want in a product like this. Lacks a couple of features the competition has, but those aren't critical.
CONSExpert application only works on Windows, wish there were a version for iOS. (I can remote-control my PC from my iPhone with VNClite so it CAN be done.) Also, its easy to transmit a file from the expert PC to the client PC; there is no feature to do the reverse. Why not?
Vendor Response
Hi Larry, Thank you for sharing your experience and for being our valued customer! There are several options to transfer a file from the client PC to the expert: 1) when running Remote Desktop Control, you can transfer files from the client PC to your own machine by using either drag-and-drop or copy/paste, or 2) the client can use the Send File button located in the top left corner of the Client Application.

Fast and Reliable
I'm a small business offering managed services (MSP) to my clients. Remote Monitoring solutions usually include some form of remote access but it's no comparison to FixMe. By keeping them separate I don't have to be concerned about setting up access all over again if I switch RMM solutions in the future. For my residential clients I can use FixMe in conjunction with apps such as CCleaner Cloud to connect and then patch applications. FixMe is the framework in which I build my business.
CONSI would like to see electronic auditing as a future feature. I want to be able to see the system specs on a unattended system without having to connect and view it manually. A Mac client would also be nice.

Quick and easy to use. Nice GUI for grouping and monitoring.
- I enjoy how easy it is to see my connected computers and their online status, being able to name them, group them or remove them from a group. - The spreadsheet totals for connection times is very useful for showing clients the work/time put into maintenance or troubleshooting on their devices. - It is nice that the program is not reliant on a browser. lightweight. - Very quick, patient, efficient, and friendly with customer service.
CONS- Customization is present but not as easy as I would like. It feels like I have to read manuals in many places and put work for my branded page or template to really shine. If they added more ease and options for customizing the client seen windows and page that would be great! - This is an extra but I wish after a connection the program could prompt you for notes on what was performed and that would be included in the spreadsheet for connection times. Currently, I am writing in a different program and having to track all those notes, times/dates/client, and then attempt to incorporate them into the spreadsheets I send to my clients but it's not as clean in two different documents or takes an additional amount of time to combine them and make it look nice.

Fantastic value when you have far more computers than people to remote into
Remoting into any Windows PC either via a very convenient pin or unattended access.
PROSFantastic price compare to competitors It has all of the features you can expect at the price point. It is a very solid program. I have never had an issue with it. It always works. Support is good and responsive.
CONSIt is a little light on features, but at the price point, I don't expect much more. It would be nice if it auto-refreshed the unattended list. Sometimes you have to go back to the unattended in order to find out of the computer is back online after a reboot because sometimes the information on the home page doesn't update as quickly.

FixMe.IT Review
The software delivered reliable and efficient remote support capabilities, allowing me to connect to clients' computers seamlessly. The user-friendly interface and intuitive design made it easy to navigate and perform remote tasks. The file transfer feature was a useful addition for quick and secure file exchange. Although there were some limitations in terms of advanced features, FixMe.IT provided a solid remote support solution that met my basic requirements.
PROSOne of the things I liked most about FixMe.IT was its ease of use and simplicity. The software had a clean and intuitive interface, making it easy to navigate and understand its features. The remote desktop functionality was smooth and reliable, allowing for seamless connection to clients' computers. The file transfer feature was also convenient, enabling quick and secure exchange of files during remote sessions. Overall, the user-friendly design and efficient remote access capabilities were the highlights of my experience with FixMe.IT.
CONSOne aspect I liked least was the limited availability of additional features. While the software excelled in providing remote access and support, it lacked some advanced functionalities that could enhance the overall experience. For example, features like session recording, remote reboot, and multi-monitor support were not as robust as in other similar remote support tools.

FixMe.IT is very easy to use and is extremely reliable.
I find that end users have a very easy time navigating the interface when walking them through connecting to their workstation using the FixMe.IT website. Setting up unattended access is a breeze. The layout of the drop down menu when connected to workstations is very simple and intuitive. It has many useful features including Scaling, which is definitely needed when working off high resolution screens like my Microsoft Surface Pro 4. Being able to pan across multiple screens on a workstation or just locking into one specific screen is a very nice feature as well. I definitely use the screen recording function when doing demos along with the laser pointer and marking pen. Saving the recording and sending it to users is always appreciated. Being able to transfer files between my workstation and end users workstation is a must and works great. My favorite feature that was recently added to FixMe.IT is being able to work on multiple computers at once. I have a 3 monitor setup in my office and I can be doing multiple tasks remotely for one or many clients at once. The fee for this service is very reasonable.
CONSI wish FixMe.IT supported MACs. Since I do not support many MACs it is not a huge problem, but would love to see this feature added.

I found FixMe.IT's service extremely useful after struggling with a network that consisted of a couple of routers, a switch, and a Wi-Fi access point. I just wanted to connect to my network from home and I couldn't make it work. I emailed their support team and they helped me identify the problem and fixed it quickly.
PROSI have been using FixMe.IT for a few years now and recommend it to anyone looking for remote support or IT Service Management. I have been using the service for 2 years now and during that time I have been able to help many customers. I always get back to them within 30 minutes and the experience is always very friendly. They have a great team of customer service professionals that are always ready to assist with your IT problems. I highly recomended it.
CONSIt takes really long to reconnect after lost connection problems. We had many connection problems because the application could not get full authorization from the operating system.

Our first choice in remote desktop applications
For us fast and accessible customer support is paramount - our clients love the ease at which they can show my team the issue they want fixed or have my staff take control of their screen and demo a new feature etc. We have excellent reviews for the support we offer and a part of that is due to the ease of sharing desktops using FixMe.IT
PROSThe image quality and response times are excellent even with a poor internet connection. In extreme situations we still have access to our client's screens long after the accompanying Skype call has lost its connection. It very cost effective as we do not need a license for everyone in the team, we rarely need more connections at any one time than the 3 seats we have purchased. Our clients find it very easy to connect and it is the desktop sharing app which is blocked least by our customers - all UK Higher Education Institutions with strict security policies.
CONSWe have used it for so long we no longer find anything that we would like changed.

Best alternative to LogMeIn and Teamviewer if you dont need to connect to Macs
This service is outstanding and I couldn't operate without it. By far the best alternative to LogMeIn and Teamviewer I've used.
PROSPrice. Very cost effective. Efficiency. Connects just about every time. Speed of experience. Once connected, the experience is excellent. Ease of use. Using it on alternative PCs is easy. Training people to use is also easy. East of deployment. Getting new PCs connected is a snap.
CONSNo Mac remote access. Would be nice, but not essential to my business. No mobile app. Again, would be nice, but not essential. The occasional hanging connection to a PC. Sometimes its takes a while to establish the connection. And sometimes It wont connect at all (even through installed). Very rare however.

PROSAbility to connect to multiple computers at the same time, is a very useful. As an I.T. professional, I routinely connect to many computers at once, when deploying many computers at once. Or when stopping a virus attack, I can quickly get to all computers on any network I need to.
CONSTechinline Ltd billing system, no grace period. they claim 1 day but haven't seen that yet. keeps cancelling my service, if payment is not received on 1st attempt. Other suppliers will try more than once before cancelling anything.
Vendor Response
Hi Bruce, We rely on a third-party platform, Bluesnap, to handle our billing matters. By design, the Bluesnap system cancels a declined order on the following day after the original failed auto-renewal attempt. The main purpose of this is to ensure that there are no subsequent repeat charge attempts whenever any payment is declined. At the same time, we assure you that the FixMe.IT application provides a 1-day grace period, which means that we keep your subscription active for 1 full day whenever the auto-renewal payment is not processed by Bluesnap. We also reach out with a failed renewal notice and provide instructions for submitting the payment. After one day, i.e. when the subscription expires, you may use the 'Renew License' option within the Expert app to submit the payment. If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to contact our sales team at sales@techinline.com. Best, Dan | Techinline
