SimpleHelp VCR Reviews & Product Details

SimpleHelp has grown from the highly competetive remote support industry where above all we have been providing simplicity both for the host and attendee, and stability. If a technician is remotely helping a paying customer then it is crucial that their support software lets them get their job done efficiently with zero headaches for the often non-technical customer.

"Helpful remote connection tool but a little pricey."

3/5

What do you like best about SimpleHelp VCR?

The user interface was simple and it allowed our customers to be in a queue for remote connections. It felt more developed than teamviewer and slightly faster remote connections. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SimpleHelp VCR?

The price was too expensive and with other free alternatives to use, Simplehelp was no longer necessary for us to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"SimpleHelp is Simple for Help"

4/5

What do you like best about SimpleHelp VCR?

Although SimpleHelp requires a bit more setup to centrally manage machines than a simple VNC install, once it's setup it can be deployed and run on and off a company network so you're not limited to local network users. You also have the ability to send out 1-time invites that are virtually client-less with no software left over when done. The cost is very reasonable too! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SimpleHelp VCR?

When SimplHelp works, it works fairly well. It is a bit more bloated in resources than a VNC client and does lag a little more but it is feature rich so it's a trade-off. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering SimpleHelp VCR:

SimpleHelp is remote shadow software with a few bells and whistles, plain and simple. You can manually install the SimpleHelp client, push it out using a task, and even publish a 1-time link for users to get to. The console shows all active and disconnected clients along with the ability to send 'commands' to the screen like elevated command lines and GUI's, file transfers, and few other things. It does however lack reporting capabilities, but we have been happy users otherwise for several years. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is SimpleHelp VCR solving and how is that benefiting you?

The ability to remotely control users around the world and even send 1-time assistance links to 3rd party users when required is fantastic. It cuts down on remote support time tremendously by being able to see what the user is seeing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
