Works great!

Recently started using this as a replacement for TeamViewer (free edition). I do alot of remote support and I was looking for a free solution with minimal effort to get running. I looked into several free alternatives that could do unattended and remote support but I needed something that could get setup in restricted networks only ssl and http open. I couldn't find a free solution that I didn't need to open ports or setup some sort of reverse proxy. I then looked for paid solutions and found many that cost a fair amount but they worked then I found Zoho assist not only did it do what I wanted but had a free version and even the payfor version didn't break the bank!

Outstanding!

We are currently using the Remote support app and social media platform for our computer support business. Must say, I’m beyond impressed. In a day and age where a business scalability is vital to its success, Zoho comes through. Zohos Pricing and customer Support are unmatched and the options seem never ending. I’m super excited to see how the future of our business looks as we grow with the use of other Zoho apps!

Useless

Zoho Assist (normal non-phone app) is growing on my since I was forced to stop hiding GoToAssist. Was excited to hear there was a phone app for agents. Tried it out testing into my own computer...

1) connects quickly
2) the mouse, click control demo is unintelligible. It asks if you understand. I select No thinking it would give me a move advanced demo. Nope just jumps into session... why ask then?
3) so I figured out the touchpad feature is the only option, otherwise your finger covers where you are pointing and when the screen is so small, accuracy is critical.
4) so I figure this is only good for monitoring my laptop. For example, I have this project where a program is running all night. Great! I can use this app to check in every half hour to see if it finished or crashed... no go.
5) if you minimize the app (for any reason), it disconnects you from the session. So far, after it does that, I’ve not been able to restart the session.
6) sometimes it says it’s waiting for the client to approve... but it’s not. I am on my laptop and there are no prompts etc.

So in short, good alpha test app. Let me know when beta testing starts.

Developer Response ,

Hi, Greetings from Zoho Assist. Please find our response to your queries below. 2) the mouse, I select No thinking it would give me a move advanced demo. Nope just jumps into session... why ask then?

If you choose the "No" option, we will show the demo every time you connect to a new session. We will change the pop-up in our upcoming updates.

3) so I figured out the touchpad feature is the only option, otherwise your finger covers where you are pointing and when the screen is so small, accuracy is critical.

We support both Touchpad and Trackpad in our app. To change to Trackpad, go to Session - Preferences - > choose the Trackpad option.

4) so I figure this is only good for monitoring my laptop. For example, I have this project where a program is running all night. Great! I can use this app to check in every half hour to see if it finished or crashed... no go.

We have features based on the pricing plans. Take a look at the below link. Please write to us at assist@zohommobile.com if you're looking for any specific requirements.

5) if you minimize the app (for any reason), it disconnects you from the session. So far, after it does that, I’ve not been able to restart the session.

This is Apple's OS behavior. It will automatically clear the session after five minutes in the background. To join the same session, you can go to Home screen -> Session -> Session list -> tap on the "join" button.

6) sometimes it says it’s waiting for the client to approve... but it’s not. I am on my laptop and there are no prompts etc. So in short, good alpha test app. Let me know when beta testing starts.

Could you please send us the screenshot of the issue to assist@zohommobile.com? We would be in a much better position to help.
