[dba-Tech] LogMeIn is no more

Hi Gustav:

I found out the LogMeIn was dead when my client told me it wasn't working...very upsetting and to my way of thinking not very unprofessional. It will be a while before I will endorse the product again, if ever.

I had initially been interested in Splashtop remote, but according to the attached article there may be issues with firewalls and therefore routers? This will require further investigation. Splashtop remote is supposed to be very fast and also runs on all platforms so I have not abandoned its potential use yet.

Teamviewer might be the more appropriate choice...any thoughts?

Hi Jim

Even as a loyal user, this was such a surprise to me that I posted this to the forum:

"As a help to our loyal users we'll give you 60, no 30, no 7 (seven) days to ..."

Sorry, this is not a way to address loyal users. We're off.
I'm quite sure the competion will know how to not pertinently address loyal users.

Even after 30 years in this business, the way suppliers can address customers still surprises me. Some people are not educated, I've realized, or just plain stupid.

Now, what was the name of the very interesting newcomer, you told about not so long ago, please?

Hi All:

Well the truth is LogMeIn is still there but now the model is pay-as-you-go. Today I will be running around to a couple of clients and replacing their remote products...but I still have not decided which one is best. I am sort of leaning towards Splashtop Remote...any thought?
