“Nonexistent learning curve”

Pros

Getting started with it was quick and using it feels very simple. There was basically no learning curve and the interface looks polished and modern. From what I've seen, it seems like it could do exactly what I need.

Cons

The biggest downside is that it only connects through Windows. I was hoping to manage remotes from my phone or tablet and I even have a wireless keyboard for that kind of setup. With this limitation, I'd need to carry a laptop around and use my phone as a hotspot just to stay wireless.

“Lovely features”

Pros

At this point, we've fully moved over to using everything it has to offer and it's been a really positive experience. We've especially enjoyed the standard client sessions, unattended access and the access history features.

Cons

Since we work mostly on macOS devices some recent version updates have made SetMe Unattended unavailable which means we've had to rely on other tools like Screen Sharing instead. If Apple gave businesses a bit more flexibility in this area, it likely wouldn't be a problem.

“handy dashboard with useful tools”

Pros

Copying and pasting files is simple and the dashboard is very user-friendly. It brings together text tools, screen recording, OS version details and even uptime in one place.

Cons

It doesn't run on iPad which is disappointing. Having that option would be really helpful for quick screen checks when I'm away from my desk or just need to handle a simple task.
