### "Very reliable program!"

July 31, 2025

5.0

Pros

The stability of the program. No issues with administrator rights etcetera. It always works flawlesly.

Cons

That we tried other products from other vendors. Because we thougt it would be a good idea to test some other products. We shouldn't.

### "Great lightweight tool that puts all the simple features in one place and removes the clutter you don't need often."

September 17, 2025

5.0

From a user perspective, this is a very convenient tool that puts everything in one place. It doesn't get buried amongst all the open browser tabs and makes it easy to find. Setting permissions is a little cumbersome initially, but it's a very convenient tool to use once all that is set up.

Pros

is a great alternative to using the web interface. It removes a step and puts all the access that I need on a regular basis in one place. There are extra options in the web interface but since they aren't used often, it's not needed. This gives me a much simpler option and I am able to package the program and deploy through SCCM removing the need for admin rights to install.

Cons

This it nitpicky. I would love to be able to alter the white background and use a custom background and not just change the image. I would also like to be able to remove the computers tab for those that don't need that access.

Reason for choosing ISL Light

BeyondTrust was 4x's the price and complicated to setup and implement. NinjaOne went far beyond our needs. RustDesk being open source had security concerns. Microsoft Remote Help is highway robbery. This product was more expensive than our previous tool, but I have much more faith in it's security.

Hi Robert, thanks a lot for your detailed and valuable feedback! Regarding your request to hide the Computers tab, there’s an option to disable ISL AlwaysOn for selected users. Go to your Web Console, select Administration on the left side. On the right side you will see Settings, select ISL AlwaysOn. Here you can disable ISL AlwaysOn. This prevents users from adding or connecting to unattended computers. The computers are not permanently deleted, so the setting can be reverted. The affected users will also be unable to view the “Remote Access” tab on web pages.

### "It's almost perfect."

May 17, 2021

3.0

Pretty good the sales team were very good the development team could be a bit better at responding to customer needs and issues.

Pros

Hosting the software ourselves is very comforting as we don't have to rely on other servers if it goes down we are to blame. Reading the customer the ID is very nice versus the other way around as it helps prevent errors and gets read at a consistent rate. Also being able to email and transfer the session is very helpful. The software file transfer is the best I've tried much faster than the competitors.

Cons

A couple of things that I wish would be improved would be. When comparing to Teamviewer, ISL is considerably slower; if you have them sitting side by side, you will be able to complete tasks almost twice as fast with Teamviewer. When opening UAC within Windows, there is a considerable delay in displaying the Yes and No prompt that doesn't happen with Teamviewer. Multiple monitors work pretty well, but once you get past three monitors, the software starts to fall apart. It's even slower. Also, sometimes, it won't even show dialog boxes in the large zoomed-out view that exists when using Teamviewer. You won't see all the monitors at once, so you will need to toggle each monitor until you are on the right one. Switching monitors is also a drag as it's also very, very slow to display the content of each individual monitor. I've been told that one of the reasons for ISL slowness is that it is more secure than Teamviewer, and while that might be true, I wish they would give the End User the option to have faster speed/less secure or slower speeds more secure.

Response from ISL Online

June 10, 2021

Hello, the delays you are experiencing in a session where two computers are side by side, in comparison with TeamViewer, is due to difference in how the sessions work. With ISL Online, every session goes through a dedicated ISL server, making such a connection much more secure - in comparison, TeamViewer connections are peer-to-peer, so the session is established directly from one computer to another, with no server inbetween. This opens the session up to potential security issues. In cases where the computers are side by side, you may find the ISL session has a slightly higher delay, however in most cases, where remote computer is not next to the operator's computer, the session should not have any more delay than a TeamViewer session. For the multi-monitor issues you are experiencing - we have created an internal ticket to improve this functionality! You're always welcome to contact us through our live chat at www.islonline.com.

### "ISL Light makes support easier"

September 16, 2025

5.0

I use at work on a daily basis. It's easy to use and easy to guide new users to receive support. It's easy to get connected and I love the feature to get admin privileges and the user just have to confirm it. Always-on function is really good as it provides a backup when VPN's or RDP have issues.

Pros

Remote access works with no hiccups and it works on multiple OS's. The mobile version works well too. Always on is really useful.

Cons

A bit of confusion with login as I have 2 accounts with the same email. Sometimes it scrambles the view when user has multiple monitors.

### "Reliable remote support solution that saves time for our IT team"

September 11, 2025

5.0

I have a very good experience with . It is fast, reliable, and easy to use for both IT support and clients. I especially appreciate that it offers everything we need while being more cost-effective than similar solutions. The software truly simplifies remote support work and boosts productivity.

Pros

The program provides all the functionalities that IT support needs for efficient remote work for our custumer support (file transfer, screen sharing, system management, simple “run as” admin access, etc.). The system runs stably without interruptions. In addition, the price is excellent — more affordable than similar programs such as TV, which further increases the value of the solution. It supports both online and self-hosted installations, offering an extra advantage when choosing the deployment method. I can manage the server myself, giving me full control over all settings.

Cons

I really don’t have many complaints. I didn’t encounter any major problems or glitches. It works satisfactorily even with weaker internet connections.

### "I like it more than I liked Teamviewer"

September 10, 2025

4.0

Better than teamviewer, it works more reliably, no more explaining to customers to click accept EULA. I feel no need to search for other solutions.

Pros

\- silent install packages for unattended clients, I can make different packages for different customers so that clients are automatically arranged into my groups - technical support people are knowledgeable and fast

Cons

\- sometimes it seems a bit slow, specially when switching to admin mode remotely - session links should be nicer (shorter), sometimes the situation forces clients to type it manually (https://islv61.islonline.net/join/XXXXXXXX) - I do not like it that it was sold to US company

Jože, thank you for your review and trust! ISL Online was acquired by PDQ, a US company; however, ISL Online remains based in Slovenia, EU. This means your data is still protected under European legislation and ISO/IEC 27001:2022 standards. As a customer, you can continue using ISL Online products and enjoy the same trusted support, while PDQ invests in enhancing the overall experience. If a customer needs to manually type in the link, the simplest way is to enter “islonline.net” and then the session code. I hope that helps!

### "ISL Light Delivers Exceptional Performance and Security"

January 6, 2026

5.0

is an outstanding remote support solution. It combines ease of use, strong security, and excellent performance, making it a top choice for professionals who need reliable remote access.

Pros

I really appreciate how simple and intuitive is to use. The connection process is fast and secure, and it works flawlessly across different platforms. The performance is excellent, even on slower networks, and the interface is clean and user-friendly. I also like the strong focus on security and privacy, which gives me confidence when working remotely. Overall, it’s a reliable and efficient tool for remote support.

Cons

There’s very little to dislike, but if I had to mention something, it would be that the advanced features can take a bit of time to discover for new users. A more guided onboarding or quick tips could make the experience even better.

Overall it has been an incredibly useful product for the price and has assisted with many projects recently.

Pros

ISL is fast and responsive to remote onto client machines. Easy to add unattended machines and share access internally.

### "Gret Remote Acccess Software"

December 19, 2023

5.0

This is the best, most intuitive remote access software for tech support technicians that service multiple clients.

Pros

Accessing remote devices using ISL is easy. I have the app on my main PC, my laptop, and my phone. Being able to work on a device from my phone means I don't have to be tied to a computer for tech support. Everything works, always.

Cons

When moving devices to groups, and dropping it, the screen refreshes and goes back to the top of the list. If I am moving devices, I don't want to keep scrolling down. Would be nice to select multiple devices and drag and drop to the group. Also, would be nice to create an access password per group. Since I service multiple companies, it would be nice to select group and change password for entire group.

### "IT support worker using ISL daily"

November 16, 2021

5.0

Overall, ISL has been a pleasure to work with and has been an essential tool to support individuals and businesses, especially during the COVID lockdowns when so many people moved to working from home. Whenever I needed support in the early days of using ISL, I found the online chat facility to be excellent, quickly answering questions and resolving my issues.

Pros

Integration ISL with our existing business was very straightforward. I appreciate being able to have multiple sessions open simultaneously. I particularly liked the pointing device, monitor switching, video session recording, and chat facility which remains on the customer's screen even after the session has ended. Being able to transfer files is great and the functionality to be able to switch so that a supported customer can view my desktop has also proved useful on occassion.

Cons

Working with apple devices can be difficult but there are some good guides on the ISL website to help navigate the settings and permissions that need to be granted by the client.

Reason for choosing ISL Light

ISL seemed to offer a superior product at a very fair price. The demo period was long enough to assure me that ISL was the best choice and the on-boarding process was seemless.

### "Don't judge it by its looks"

December 5, 2022

5.0

If you are old enough the GUI might remind you of Operating Systems long gone - underneath is a top-class software that has no need for embellishment. It's easy to install, deploy, and use. There's a lot of features and more are added over time but most important the core functionality and security evolve constantly.

Pros

I like the ease of use, no distracting bells and whistles. Whether Remote Support or Unattended Access, everything you need is there. It works reliably and perfectly with multi-monitor configurations.

Cons

There are no real cons. Even though the interface is minimalist you can do all you need.

August 23, 2023

5.0

From day one sign up to the trial and then signing up the experience has been fantastic, sales and support are more than helpful.

Pros

The software just works and is quick to connect plus has very rapid deployment options with great documentation on how to do this. Support is also rapid and some of the best I have ever experienced.

Cons

A few more options to be able to set customisation from the web gui would be nice but not detrimental.

### "Basic remote help"

September 22, 2025

5.0

Overall I am happy with its use. What I appreciate the most and is of main priority is safety and privacy.

Pros

Simplicity of installation and user friendly interface. Transparent and efficient, stable running as for simple or professional use.

Cons

That its not yet fully capable of using it for smart phone aplication. Perhaps I'm not doing something right but at creating new sessions I am constantly experiencing push for new interface downloads.
