What is ConnectWise Control?
ConnectWise Control is a help desk solution that allows businesses to detect and resolve customer queries through remote monitoring capabilities. Agents can access clients’ devices using session codes or email invitations, prevent potential cyberthreats, and protect data via AES-256 encryption and two-factor authentication.
Using ConnectWise Control’s video auditing functionality, enterprises can record videos of all ongoing sessions and store them in the system for future reference. It comes with an administrative dashboard, which lets users view connection activity, session events, or recently active technicians and download generated reports in HTML, CSV, XML or JSON format. Moreover, professionals can add multiple technicians in an ongoing session to resolve customer issues through team collaboration.
With ConnectWise Control’s mobile application, businesses can manage virtual sessions, run commands, and communicate with customers through messaging. Operators can utilize the custom branding functionality to add brand logos and use local languages to enhance visitor engagement. It also helps managers conduct remote meetings to control desktops and highlight specific areas on the shared screen using annotation tools.

If you value your time and energy, use this software
I use this software on a daily basis to keep IT operations within my organization running like a well-oiled machine. Our pharmacies are very remote and the ease of deployment makes it a breeze to troubleshoot any machine located anywhere from anywhere.
Better than TeamViewer
We manage large number of clients, some of them with unattended access and others without installing the client (on demand). After trial we have strong prositive impression with the functionalities and usability of the software. There was small fear of switching from a different product but the transition went smooth. We find some new functionality that we can use every week :)
The price is right, it has enough features that were not that easy to integrate, its...
see above
you could have had the market targeting alot of users and devices all around the world with your good fair pricing but everything else is not so good as it was -- with webex, teamview, logmein, ultravnc free,
dameware, Zendesk, anydesk, realvnc just to name a few
we as IT professional cant afford to look stupid with virus threats coming up with screenconnect
and telling people all these instructions to get control your one step installer plugin never worked !!
but good pricing kind of scary that others offer like sysaid and others not offering anything for the small guys like you did --- by the way i was talked into the AUTOMATE product --- worst product ever!
i spent a bit over a half a day cleaning it off and restoring all systems. It would not do what it was suppose to do at all --- slowest connection and unusable at all it was connected but would wind up my systems on some process i had to shut them down and clean the drives of any traces of AUTOMATE -- no software has done worse and your sale and support did not believe me i showed them proof they laughed and said they have never used it professionally
thanks any more information happy to help
maybe you could be the next big thing all the ideas are there but it all fell apart and you need to do almost a 180'
I was forced to try ConnectWise and don't really like it
When my TeamViewer account wasnt working and I had to do some remote support, I was scrambling for a quick solution. I decided on ConnectWise for this use. I was going from mac to mac and overall the quality and speed were ok, but the usability was not. I kept accidentally closing the local window and having to reconnect. This should be built to prevent this action.

Pros
ConnectWise Control was incredibly easy to implement, and is very powerful. It comes with so many tools and features that are invaluable and solve complex problems very simply.
Cons
No cons really. Any features and updates or nice-to-have's are added by their development team in subsequent updates, and they really do listen to their user base.

Pros
Transition was easy both from our and the client side. Non of our clients had any experience with ConnectWise control but all were happy with the product and the service.
Connecting to the clients are easy, but what we liked the most is the extensive information about the client that is obtained by the ConnectWise Control (connection history, notes, run commands, view and kill processes). This is highly recommended software for any IT service company.
Cons
So far (few months) we didn't have or find any problems with the ConnectWise control. Hope it will stay that way :)
ConnectWise Control - Lightweight and Stable
Pros
One of the best pieces of software ConnectWise has. It's lightweight and easy to deploy. The agent is very stable and very easy to update.
Cons
Development has stalled a bit. There was some feature updates (CW View) but nothing major since.
The price is right, it has enough features that were not that easy to integrate, its reputation has

Pros
THE price compared to TEAMVIEWER AND LOG|ME in
i was not a large operation so the licensing suited
i loved the idea that i could make it a subdomain of my site or just have a link and it was White labelled
affordable
once i was remotely connected it was fine
It has many integrations and partnered up with a lot of companies
Cons
Its a pity you have not a better business relationship with antivirus companies
in most occasions and it was happening more and more that it would be picked up as a virus --- not good and worrying
it has many integrations and features ---- these features were hard to install and because there was many versions - most the time hard to get the right compatibility -- these integrations should be one click or a signup here and there --- i wouldnt have minded paying good money if these would at least work
It was not very intiutive some tasks -- like the whole process i would go through with clients
download the exe or file
then double click on it --- if you miss it , it will be in your downloads
then click run
follow prompts
then allow
and no at this point i would sometimes get a prompt to update the software
not good, not good at all
your sales and support staff could not give a dam because i was a small 1-15 users account
it was not very easy and intuitive initially to do file transfer - have you used team viewer?
most respectable organisations wont allow 8041 port through there firewall
it has lost its good reputation that support users at the large universities have originally given it
being considered unsafe and treated as a threat - i know that i could make it an exemption in the AV software but it came up as threat after the fact as if it later was damaged as professional tool
with all the quality secure easy products on the market these days | cisco
webex|

Pros
ConnectWise does have a good pricing tier. They are relatively inexpensive (or free) to use when doing support on personal systems.
Cons
Usability isnt great with this software. The install process on the client side is a bit more involved then teamviewer quick support and the user interface and connection method is not great for the administrator either.
