Tech Review: Log Me In (Computer Program)





I have used Log Me In now for a year or so and have never had a problem with it. What is it you may ask? You can control your computer from anywhere as long as your computer is on and has internet access and the computer (or iPhone/iPod touch) your on has internet access. You start off by going to the Log Me In website (listed below) and installing the program onto your computer. After you have it installed, you are all ready to go. You can go onto the Log Me In website and select the computer you want to control and well, control it.

You can also subscribe to extra things such as Log Me In Pro, IT Reach and Backup (all prices below). But even with the free version. Here is what you get which each subscription:

Log Me In Free

· Remote Control your Computer

· “Always On” Access (Maintain and support systems without end user interaction)

Log Me In Pro [$12.95/mo, $69.95/yr]

· Hosted Service (Uses a gateway to broker connection between computers and traverses firewalls)

  1. Surely it is better to use an adhoc system that requires no installation and far superior security to that of Log Me In?

  2. LogMeIn is the best out there. I have been using the free version for more than 2 years without any problem.
