Pros:
We have fully transitioned to utilizing all that SetMe offers, and have thoroughly enjoyed the use of the standard client sessions, unattended access, and access history.
Cons:
Working predominantly on macOS devices, recent version upgrades have prevented SetMe Unattended from being available and needing other services like Screen Sharing to work. If Apple provides some flexibility to the business environment, this would no longer be an issue.

Reasons for switching to SetMe

We used the control permissions from Zoom and Teams for our macOS support when the pandemic hit and it was clunky at best. Being able to use an app that is built out for macOS remote support was an absolute game changer.

Vendor Response

Hi Quincy — thanks for the thoughtful review and for trusting SetMe for remote support. Regarding the recent macOS unattended issue after recent updates: we’re aware of it and actively working on a fix (including coordination with Apple's team and their requirements). We expect this to be resolved in the near term. Thanks again for your patience and continued business! — The SetMe team

very nice I don't like that interruptions when i open setme console on another computer and i always get that another session was in session and i have to click and then close and then get going ... maybe add a MAC ADDRESS security option, so that any of these MAC addresses are allowed to use the set.me console. ?????

Pros:
not sure ... but certainly improvements over fixme. I would like the downloads function to be a bit more obvious when i goto www.set.me :: like a login link on that page.. Support has been VERY RESPONSIVE and has implemented several of my "wonderful" suggestions. :-)
Cons:
improve: I think that little square to minimize the top ribbon should go on the far left or right side so it doesn't eat up screen real-estate. I typically keep it there, but that extra vertical space getting used by the little square is a tad annoying....also: the scroll bar at the bottom of hte screen for multiple monitors needs to be bigger and a bright color like GREEN on BLACK or somthing so it obvious that there are multiple monitors .... ALSO: on unattended, sometimes when i connect to clients, they still have things open, would be NICE if maybe: the TEXT window auto-appeared in teh middle of their screen maybe to alert them that remoting is now happening, or something like that: I think maybe instead of just opening their screen that the bar appears to either texxt or remote open or something just to cause a delay maybe.

Reasons for choosing SetMe

pricing, features, updates over fixme........................multiple other options, but pricing was just silly for my little business. teamviewer, and others

Reasons for switching to SetMe

better options, improvements over fixme .... but I waited a long time to do it.

A Great Choice for multiple, On Demand, remote connectivity for support

Pros:
Ease of setup and use. Zero learning time. Cool interface. Seems like it may fill the bill for what I need it to do.
Cons:
Only Windows OS to connect is a downfall, since I was able to review remotes from my phone or tablet (I even have a wireless keyboard them). Now, I would need a laptop in my pocket to go wirelessly and a hotspot on my phone.

Reasons for switching to SetMe

More constant connections was the primary reason

Vendor Response

Hi — thanks for the feedback. Just a quick clarification: SetMe supports macOS and Windows for the technician (Expert) app, and you can connect to both Mac and Windows remote computers — it’s not limited to Windows only. Thanks again — and feel free to reach out to our support team if you’d like help getting the most out of SetMe.

Pros:
MFA authentication though smart phone apps. MAC remote support. Connects back to remote sessions after restarts (fixme would have problems with this).
Cons:
Top bar is annoying when in remote sessions. Scale it in to the window or allow it to be auto-hidden like in fixme. Admin rights to install setme as a service require the customer to click allow where fixme would just work. Still major clipboard issues just like with fixme if connected to more than one remote session. Less likely to connect back to remote session if joining a domain or changing any network or user profile settings than with fixme. Malware scan tools find SetMe as a threat. Some customers get stuck at connecting (after they have given us a the code) with SetMe and FixMe works fine.

Reasons for switching to SetMe

For app based MFA support...............

Vendor Response

Hi Robert, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience! Our goal is to make SetMe the best remote support solution for your needs, so we greatly appreciate your candid feedback. I've received a confirmation from our support team that there should be no connection issues at the remote end provided that the customer has a working internet connection. If you continue to experience the same issue, please reach out to support directly at support@set.me. They'd be happy to provide a solution! As for the clipboard problem that you mentioned, it's actually a security measure that prevents the accidental pasting of sensitive content, such as passwords, when connected to multiple sessions. However, we do understand the importance of being able to share the clipboard with multiple remote machines. Soon enough, we're going to introduce a new setting that will allow you to choose if you want to share clipboard content across all connected sessions. Best, Dan | Techinline

Pros:
I like that the product is constantly updated to keep on top of the security aspects. We also like the unattended features and the means to secure who can and cannot access certain workstations.
Cons:
The fact that they push updates at any particular time and there are times when you are in a hurry to access a workstation that you have to wait for the application to update.

Reasons for choosing SetMe

Pricing and available features. Best value for the buck.

Reasons for switching to SetMe

It was an upgrade of the other product and had more options so we made the switch.

Pros:
All the great featured of FixMe.IT but now with Mac support. Also, if you are a FixMe.IT customer they will migrate your connections to the new service. This includes all of the unattended account credentials, etc.
Cons:
I would love to see support for mobile devices. I think this is still lacking. Also, the price increased by about 33% on a monthly basis. But with the price increase over at FixMe.IT it is only a little more a month for all of the advanced features.

Reasons for choosing SetMe

A combination of pricing, features, and support made SetMe a more valuable option for us. The other products had lower endpoint limitations for the price or lacked solid support for when we are having issues.

Reasons for switching to SetMe

We switched because the SetMe product included Apple support but also because the pricing increases on the FixMe.IT product made it almost a wash.

Vendor Response

Hi William, Thank you for taking the time to leave us a five-star review and for being our valued customer! We're happy to know you've had a positive experience with SetMe.

SetMe Review After Migrating from FixMe

Connection options are way better, and it's nice to be able to connect to multiple devices at once. I also like the tags feature so I can organize in a more logical way. I am looking forward to coming features like dark mode and auto-reconnect when switching to my expert console from another device.

Pros:
The evolution of features from FixMe allow for more flexibility in how I connect and manage my remote computers and servers. Their support has been *very* accepting of feedback and incorporating ideas into new versions of the product.
Cons:
Some design UI leaves less room to see important information that I use when connecting to multiple machines at once, say during a maintenance window. I would like to see the connection information condensed so allow me to see all of my connections at a glance without scrolling.

Reasons for switching to SetMe

Mostly for multi-platform support, as I run both Windows and Mac systems.

Vendor Response

Hi Ryan, Thank you for sharing your experience with SetMe and for being our valued customer! A quick note regarding the UI improvement you suggested: soon enough we're going to introduce a new "compact mode" allowing you to see more connection information all at once without having to scroll up and down the client list.
