What do you dislike about SolarWinds DameWare Remote Support?

Sometimes the services on the remote machines crash and the remote connection fails, you need to uninstall and install the services again and some times is a bit difficult. You can not deploy the services or remote command to Ous or to a bunch of computers/servers, it need to be done one by one. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering SolarWinds DameWare Remote Support:

Test it! It's very good and useful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is SolarWinds DameWare Remote Support solving and how is that benefiting you?

The remote support of the tool is very good, we can control a computer located in the other side of the world. We do not neet to personate in front of the computer to solve a problem.

What do you dislike about SolarWinds DameWare Remote Support?

We're running an old version. There's no upgrade path and its incredibly expensive software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Buy it, you won't regret it. Unless cost is a factor. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is SolarWinds DameWare Remote Support solving and how is that benefiting you?

Allows for less time wasted on solving IT related issues - like all remote control software. This software seems more flexible than many others I've used (like logmein).

What do you like best about SolarWinds DameWare Remote Support?

Remote onto the target PC and view the current screen (instead of RDP in a new instance). Installs application on target PC without prior setup. Has tools to ping target PCs for basic network troubleshooting. I also really like that we can remote onto PCs outside of our organizations network by sending a remote desktop authorizations through email or instant messaging. This feature has allowed us to support remote users outside of our network. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SolarWinds DameWare Remote Support?

Has no real configuration setting so that i have to set the view controls every time i log in and use the software. I also dislike that even though I have a solid connection to the target PC, the remote connection fails or takes an extended amount of time for a successful session to start. Restarting the target PC does help most of the time but it becomes moot when your trying to see the error that the user is trying to show you. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering SolarWinds DameWare Remote Support:

Great product for remote desktop services. I can remote onto any PC or server with this even if the target PC does not have Dameware loaded or running Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is SolarWinds DameWare Remote Support solving and how is that benefiting you?

Dameware solves our remote support problems when working with end users having issues on their PC without IT staff going on site to work on the issue physically. This saves us many working hours by being able to stay at our desks and work with end users at remote sites Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about SolarWinds DameWare Remote Support?

This is a great remote access tool for enterprise environments. It is more secure than Windows Remote Desktop. Works great with AD as well, which is very handy in an enterprise environment like a school district with schools that are miles apart. Mouse and keyboard controls flow seamlessly between your local machine and the machine you are remoted into. When trying to remote into a system that doesn't have the client software, it gives you the option to push the client software out to the machine so that you can get in to help the customer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SolarWinds DameWare Remote Support?

When trying to copy text from your local machine and paste to the remote machine, the option doesn't always work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is SolarWinds DameWare Remote Support solving and how is that benefiting you?

In our school district, it is rare that we have a tech in every school at any given time. A lot of the time, problems that users call in with are fixable over the phone, but other times, it requires a more hands-on approach and Dameware makes this very simple. Just request the IP address from the user, and you're in! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about SolarWinds DameWare Remote Support?

DameWare allows me to remote into clients' computer machines and completely gain computer control, while also allowing the user to observe my actions on their end. I like the feature of "locking" the end-user's controls and thus preventing them from accidentally interrupting any processes that I am running on their computer. I also like that you can save the IP addresses of the machines that are most used in a visible "favorites" column. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SolarWinds DameWare Remote Support?

Resolution is sometimes distorted, depending on the settings on the end-user's monitor. Although not a critical problem, scrolling up/down and left/right constantly could be time consuming and annoying. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering SolarWinds DameWare Remote Support:

I would definitely recommend DameWare for your business purposes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is SolarWinds DameWare Remote Support solving and how is that benefiting you?

I use DameWare every day in my efforts to provide application, POS, and general support to 50+ users that are dispersed all throughout the state. In addition, I use DameWare to also provide support/show a to the users in our home office. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
