Looking for a LogMeIn alternative? |
LogMeIn started out as a remote access and simple computer management solution for small businesses and individuals. It’s a company which has grown aggressively through Merger and Acquisition (LastPass, GotoAssist, GotoMeeting, GotoMyPC) and as a result has had to overcome the difficult integration of its disparate technologies and product offerings.
In the recent past, the IT community has been vocal about LogMeIn unpopular price hikes, and its tiered pricing. Functionality wise, LogMeIn Rescue and Central present some gaps in features often required for enterprise IT remote support or by MSPs.
Goverlan was founded in 1998 with the specific mission to develop a simpler, more secure, more agile remote support and IT management software. Goverlan Reach’s architecture has been specifically designed to suit the business requirements of its portfolio of clients which include SMBs as well as high-profile Wall Street, healthcare and government institutions.
It solves the daily issues that system administrators and IT support staff‑ encounter on a daily basis faster than any other LogMeIn alternative.
