Amazing and feature rich.

PROS

The amount of features available is amazing. Made remote support a breeze for our environment. Easily the best.

CONS

Deploying takes a bit to figure out. Support is very helpful but would love to see an easier way for the silent deploy.

NetSupport Manager 12.7

The ability to manage our entire UK SCADA system from the comfort of my office without the need to travel

PROS

Being able to visualise the computers in real time

CONS

Deployment of the software can be difficult to install if computers are located in a remote location.

Reason for choosing NetSupport Manager

Because the pricing and licencing system of Team viewer was expensive and not practicable compared to NetSupport and also lacks options available in NetSupport which I preferred

Good for Managing Devices on a Local Network

PROS

It's reliable and gets the job done. It's also inexpensive.

CONS

Peer to peer connections have their limits. This is not the best tool if the device is remote from your network.

Just what we needed!

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.

Reasons for switching to NetSupport Manager

We needed the availability to see our virtual machines by the username and not the machine name.

NetSupport RULES!

I was introduced to NetSupport more than 15 years ago by a vendor we engaged to provide a new common-use platform for an airport ServiceTec was providing managed IT services for. I was immediately struck with the ease and amount of control NetSupport provided for the installation of the new platform. As we continued to add devices and eventually other mission-critical systems to our network, NetSupport proved its scale-ability again and again. When we had questions, their tech support was right there to give us answers. NetSupport cares about you as a partner. I've always been impressed that I do business with an individual as well as a valued partner. NetSupport makes my job easier to do!

PROS

NetSupport is a complete suite of management tools for your network. NetSupport installs easily on individual clients giving you control and access from anywhere in the world. NetSupport will enable you to monitor and/or control individual devices or groups of devices depending on your setup. Technical support is world class, you really ARE important to them. As a client, you're not just a name, you're a partner.

CONS

Honestly, this is a hard one for me, over the past 15 years I've used NetSupport, I've never had an occasion to be dissatisfied.

Still one of the best

It is in invaluable tool for me to remote into servers and desktops for IT management.

PROS

I have used NSM for 10+ years, and school for several. I also use other remotes. Net Support consistently comes out as one of the best (if not THE best). It's ease of use is unparalleled. Reliability is very high; features like inventory and file transfer are easy and fast. Times when I have needed support, they have always been able to fix the issue. I plan to continue using it.

CONS

Once in a blue moon, the manager will not connect to a client; it's not often, but enough that I remember it (to be fair, all others that I have used do the same thing). Again, once in a blue moon it randomly disconnects (and again, all the others that I have tested do the same thing). However, even with these issues, it seems to have as few or less bugs than it's competitors.

NetSupport: The Corporate Genius

Amazing corporate experience, a simple but robust solution for a big or small company. Its updates were amazing, improving and improving and the tutorials to install a hidden client inside the PC of people who have "issues" with IT Team.

PROS

NetSupport is a robust corporate Remote support tool, it's amazing how you can deploy an install in the background without the person knowing they're getting an update to their company software, or in case you have a user that constantly forgets their password or are not tech-friendly you can access in a glimpse and take total control.

CONS

The only con is that it's difficult to access other networks besides the internal one of the company. For Ex. how Teamviewer/Anydesk or other software work.

NetSupport Manager review

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.

Empowering Hero PA's Management

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.

Reason 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.

Reasons for switching to NetSupport Manager

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.

Very reilable remote access solution. We've been using it for over 7 years

Allows me to do my job fast and easy.

PROS

Provides a quick access to a wide variety of devices (Windows, Linux, Mac, Android). I use it every single day, it makes my job much easier. The application has intuitive design, it's easy to navigate, locate remote devices, connect, chat and exchange files. You are in and out within seconds. End user does not have to do anything. We have been using it for over 7 years and we would not switch to a different product.

NetSupport Manager is our go to product for remote support.

Simple and efficient remote support with no user interaction needed.

PROS

With NetSupport Manager, we have quick access to any computer on our network. The fact that the user doesn't need to do ANYTHING for us to gain control saves time and effort on our Helpdesk.

CONS

Multiple monitor support is not great...can be tough to see the monitors. But this is the case on all of the screen-share products I've used, so not really a game changer.

Our company has been using NetSupport Manager for about 15 years. It is rock solid.

It gives me the ability to manage any computer in our organization that has internet access.

PROS

It is very reliable and secure. The inventory and file transfer features are very helpful. The ability to scale the remote computer's screen to fit the local screen in very nice. The mouse control in accurate, and there is little or no lag.

CONS

The printer sharing doesn't work well for me. It doesn't always handle multiple remote monitors well.

NetSupport Manager is a must have for anyone doing remote support!

The ability to support users throughout my company without having to leave my desk. Now I can answer their questions and still keep doing my other work.

PROS

It is easy to use and maintain. I am able to support multiple users at the same time and can work with computers, laptops and servers from one desktop. My users can also request help from their desktop.

CONS

Depending on screen size and resolution settings, some remote desktops can appear smaller and be difficult to read.

Have been using this software since 2013 and find it to be one of the best IT tools available.

Control Software Installation and Updates on domain computers. Train users on software upgrades.

PROS

I have access to every computer under our domain. It allows me to update and install software on domain computers without running all over! It also allows me to train users as well as fix their errors!

CONS

I don't have any CONS about this software. I guess if it could physically dust the inside of the machines...

The best remote control product in the industry

I manage several sites and this product really helps me troubleshoot the remote locations with ease. The client is very light which allows for a smooth connection across my WAN.

PROS

How seamless it works when configured properly. I like how well it works with windows 7 and windows 10

CONS

I wish there was a way to deploy the software without being connected to a domain. Outside of that I really enjoy this product. I have been using for over 15 years.

We use this to connect to a fleet of kiosks to remote manage them.

PROS

Works well to be able to lock the remote desktop keyboard/mouse and do your work without interference from people walking by the kiosk. It has saved us money to remotely fix some problems without needing to dispatch a tech person. Like being able to download a file to a group of kiosks opposed to connecting to each one individually.

CONS

If the client has a poor internet connection it can fall of the list in the gateway but the screen doesn't refresh on it's own. You have to manually double click the gateway icon to refresh the screen. Also it can look like a kiosk is not on-line but refreshing the gateway then shows it. I found that it's best to leave the app entirely between uses opposed to leaving the app always running.

This software helps me efficiently manage a large public computer lab.

PROS

I often use the ability to remotely execute commands and programs. Being able to login large numbers of computers as administrator (or any user) all at once is a huge time and wrist saver. File distribution is also helpful if you need to push files to many machines.

CONS

Jumping between different machines is cumbersome at times. The windows sometimes open in inconvenient sizes and places like partially off screen. It would be nice if I could open one window for remote control and switch between any of the stations in addition to opening one window for each remote connection.
