Works well at a price that fits my business.
Reviewed on 2018/03/19
Pros
Fairly simple with most of the useful features anyone could want in a product like this. Lacks a couple of features the competition has, but those aren't critical.
Cons
Expert application only works on Windows, wish there were a version for iOS. (I can remote-control my PC from my iPhone with VNClite so it CAN be done.)
Also, its easy to transmit a file from the expert PC to the client PC; there is no feature to do the reverse. Why not?
Response from Techinline
Hi Larry,
Thank you for sharing your experience and for being our valued customer! There are several options to transfer a file from the client PC to the expert: 1) when running Remote Desktop Control, you can transfer files from the client PC to your own machine by using either drag-and-drop or copy/paste, or 2) the client can use the Send File button located in the top left corner of the Client Application.
Best,

The main benefit of this software is that it allows us to provide remote assistance to our clients. It is an easy software to configure, where users can access it from the client version and we can access it from the expert version.
Pros
FixMe.IT is a really easy to use and configure application. What I like the most is that it has two applications, a client version and an expert version. The video quality when sharing the screen is very stable.
Cons
The only thing I dislike about this software is that it is only available for Windows. I would like FixMe.IT to release a version for Linux.

We need a quick and inexpensive way to get connected to assist our customers and this gets the job done.
Pros
The price was right. We needed something to quickly connect to a client's computer that didn't cost an arm and a leg.
Cons
It's not as bandwidth efficient as some other products. Some clients have slow internet and FixMe can be a bit laggy with them.

Fast and Reliable
Reviewed on 2018/05/19
Pros
I'm a small business offering managed services (MSP) to my clients. Remote Monitoring solutions usually include some form of remote access but it's no comparison to FixMe. By keeping them separate I don't have to be concerned about setting up access all over again if I switch RMM solutions in the future. For my residential clients I can use FixMe in conjunction with apps such as CCleaner Cloud to connect and then patch applications. FixMe is the framework in which I build my business.
Cons
I would like to see electronic auditing as a future feature. I want to be able to see the system specs on a unattended system without having to connect and view it manually. A Mac client would also be nice.

Quick and easy to use. Nice GUI for grouping and monitoring.
Reviewed on 2017/12/14
Pros
- I enjoy how easy it is to see my connected computers and their online status, being able to name them, group them or remove them from a group.
- The spreadsheet totals for connection times is very useful for showing clients the work/time put into maintenance or troubleshooting on their devices.
- It is nice that the program is not reliant on a browser. lightweight.
- Very quick, patient, efficient, and friendly with customer service.
Cons
- Customization is present but not as easy as I would like. It feels like I have to read manuals in many places and put work for my branded page or template to really shine. If they added more ease and options for customizing the client seen windows and page that would be great!
- This is an extra but I wish after a connection the program could prompt you for notes on what was performed and that would be included in the spreadsheet for connection times. Currently, I am writing in a different program and having to track all those notes, times/dates/client, and then attempt to incorporate them into the spreadsheets I send to my clients but it's not as clean in two different documents or takes an additional amount of time to combine them and make it look nice.

Pros
This tool is rather simple to use and has a very user friendly interface. It is simple to keep things organized. It is very efficient.
Cons
I don't like how long it takes sometimes to get the MFA email. It would be nice to have an SMS or authenticator app option.
Response from Techinline
Hello Brandon,
Thank you for your feedback and your valued business with FixMe.IT! Please note that our newest cross-platform remote support solution, SetMe, allows configuring MFA via third-party authenticator apps and offers other exciting new features that you might find useful.

Very useful. I've been using since the pandemic and this has changed the way I support our offices completely.
Pros
It's simple to use and direct my users to. Allows me to be way more flexible with my scheduling and driving.
Cons
The biggest issue I have is getting users to see my chats at the beginning of a support session. But, it's simple to just hop over to their screen and pull up the chat window.

Pros
Fantastic price compare to competitors
It has all of the features you can expect at the price point.
It is a very solid program. I have never had an issue with it. It always works.
Support is good and responsive.
Cons
It is a little light on features, but at the price point, I don't expect much more. It would be nice if it auto-refreshed the unattended list. Sometimes you have to go back to the unattended in order to find out of the computer is back online after a reboot because sometimes the information on the home page doesn't update as quickly.

FixMe.IT (Techinline) for IT Support Professionals
Reviewed on 2020/05/08

I have been using Fixme.it from Techinline for over 5 years while operating my own PC support business. I am now using it to support the teachers, staff and students at school. With a pool of 700+ systems to support during our current virus pandemic (Coronavirus), this tool has been instrumental in keeping everyone's computers operating efficiently. FixMe.IT from Techinline will continue to be my "go-to" tool for providing remote IT support.
Pros
This software permits me to connect to a client's computer system quickly and reliably. The download and installation of the client software requires only standard user rights on the client system. Connecting to the client requires the client to provide a session specific "client ID" to the support person. The connection with the remote computer is encrypted for obvious security reasons. Once connected, the client's screen is shared as is the mouse and keyboard. With FixMe.IT, multiple connections can be open simultaneously, so a support agent can handle multiple clients at the same time. The client always has the ability to terminate the connection at any time during the remote session. Additionally, once the session has been completed and the client has been disconnected, the software is automatically uninstalled from the client computer. The annual price per license is only $300 for which is an exceptional bargain when compared to most other professional remote support platforms. One license is for one support agent and virtually unlimited clients. There is not any additional cost for clients or the number of client connections you make.
Cons
The only shortcoming that I have found with this application is the lack of support for MAC and Linux clients. FixMe.it (Techinline) software is designed for use only on Windows.

I found FixMe.IT's service extremely useful after struggling with a network that consisted of a couple of routers, a switch, and a Wi-Fi access point. I just wanted to connect to my network from home and I couldn't make it work. I emailed their support team and they helped me identify the problem and fixed it quickly.
Pros
I have been using FixMe.IT for a few years now and recommend it to anyone looking for remote support or IT Service Management. I have been using the service for 2 years now and during that time I have been able to help many customers. I always get back to them within 30 minutes and the experience is always very friendly. They have a great team of customer service professionals that are always ready to assist with your IT problems. I highly recomended it.
Cons
It takes really long to reconnect after lost connection problems. We had many connection problems because the application could not get full authorization from the operating system.

Makes my life easier to fix things for clients instead of trying to walk them through or have them describe error messages.
Pros
Ease of use and the ability to setup unattended access clients. The ability for it to run as a service so that users do not need to be logged in for unattended access to work and you can easily switch between windows users on a machine without having to reconnect.
Cons
Current inability to rename groups of unattended access machines.
Inability to search on group names in filter list (filter only works on machine names).
Inability to have systems on low bandwidth connections reduce.
Would like confirmation option when clicking to share *MY* desktop with end user (blue button, because I have accidentally clicked that button when trying to click the yellow one and there is no way to back out before first sharing your desktop with the end user).
No OSX/MacOS support.

Speed of experience. Once connected, the experience is excellent.
Ease of use. Using it on alternative PCs is easy. Training people to use is also easy.

Cons

No mobile app. Again, would be nice, but not essential.

Response from Techinline
Hi Paul,
Thank you for sharing your feedback and for being our valued customer! Regarding the "last seen" column - if you're referring to the current status of an unattended computer, you can check when the computer was last used by going to the Unattended Clients list and hovering over the Not In Use status in the Activity column. Please visit our support center for more details: https://docs.fixme.it/unattended-access/managing-unattended-client-list If you have something else in mind, please don't hesitate to share your suggestions with our support team at [email protected].

Pros
I like that the program does not need to be installed on the customers computer. It connects fast and allows for support
Cons
Sometimes when connecting to customers widows of programs open behind other windows. So this makes you minimize other windows. Also that it temporarily installs in the temp folder. If Windows security is set to not allow this the program cannot be used.
Response from Techinline
Hi Craig,
Thank you for sharing your feedback and for being our valued customer! If the app opens behind other windows, simply click on the FixMe.IT taskbar to make it active - this way you won't have to minimize other windows. Regarding the installation of the Client app, it is downloaded to the temp folder by default. If you need to permanently install the FixMe.IT Client app on the remote user's PC, you can use one of the options described here: https://docs.fixme.it/features/installing-client-application-on-a-remote-computer

Reviewed on 2018/06/14
Pros
For the most part, the software works very well. I have been able to connect to nearly all of my client computers. I do like the ability to have a person for to fixme.it and start a support session for a "one off" support call.
Cons
I'm still waiting for the ability to have multiple logins (not simultaneous) for a single account. I need to be able to give a specific person access to a group of client computers for remote support. I.e. If I have groups named Client A, Client B, and Client C, I want to another person be able to log in with their email and password and have access to Client C computers. There is also a minor issue of some sort with Server 2008. On a regular basis I am not able to connect to that computer. It appears the connection works but I never get the screen for remote access. When that server is rebooted I have access for a few days but then something happens and I can only RDP to that server.

Fast and easy remote connections to clients needing help along with unattended access clients that need ongoing or after hours support.
Pros
Simple, Quick and Easy connections to remote clients needing help. With other software the installation of a remote support utility takes too long, and IMO, shouldn't be installed at all. We need to connect, do our work, and disconnect without having to deal with install issues on top of the problems we are connecting in to fix. TechInLine lets me do just that with a run-only version of the connection utility, while still offering expanded options including an unattended access client.

Being able to establish a session with a user quickly is very important and that's probably the biggest strength.
Pros
The thing I like most is how fast it is under normal circumstances. As I said, we switched from using WebEx and it felt like it took several minutes to start up a WebEx session where as with FixMe we can get a session started very quickly, especially if it's with an experienced user who knows how to start a session.
Cons
One main problem comes to mind.
Performance when customer is on WiFi can be poor. Sometimes when we're helping a user who has WiFi, the session will seem to freeze up for around a minute and then will pick up again with a reasonable level of lag (like click response time is 1 or 2 sec behind) that is understandable.
