In its favor

Why people choose Splashtop Remote Support

The signal that keeps Splashtop Remote Support on the shortlist. Sourced from G2, Capterra, and customer scoping calls.

Cost savings of 70–90% versus LogMeIn Rescue or TeamViewer with comparable feature sets, making it the primary driver for migrations to Splashtop from those platforms, per competitive comparison pages and G2 reviews.

Ease of use and fast setup cited across G2 reviews, with 98% ease-of-use scores in the G2 Usability Index, meaning new technicians can onboard without lengthy training before migration day.

Cross-platform support for Windows, Mac, iOS, and Android included at no extra cost, unlike competitors who charge $37–450 per year for mobile device support, per Splashtop's own comparison pages.

Reliable remote connection performance with 4K streaming at up to 60fps and low latency, which customers specifically mention as a reason they switched from LogMeIn Pro after experiencing dropped sessions.

Attended and unattended support in one subscription, plus service desk features like SOS Call and web form widgets, giving MSPs a complete support workflow without needing separate tools.

Some users report connection stability issues with specific graphics drivers or network configurations, causing intermittent session drops that require workarounds or support tickets.

Multi-monitor support and display scaling have been flagged as lacking by Capterra reviewers, with difficulties handling multiple displays and resolution adjustments on mobile viewing.

Advanced features and integrations require a steeper learning curve and more initial setup time, particularly for organizations evaluating the Enterprise tier with SSO and ITSM integrations.

Users dislike the lack of alphabetized email lists when adding users to computers and the absence of a search feature in the user assignment interface, complicating administrative tasks.

Platform scorecard

Strengths, weaknesses, and where Splashtop Remote Support fits

Grades across six dimensions, plus a SWOT-style view of where the platform shines and where it falls short.

SWOT — strengths, weaknesses, and use-case fit

Strengths

Cost-effective pricing at $22–33 per technician per month for attended support and $259/year for 25 computers for unattended support.Cross-platform endpoint support including Windows, Mac, iOS, and Android with no mobile surcharge, unlike LogMeIn Rescue.High-performance remote connections with 4K streaming at up to 60fps and low latency, verified by G2 usability scores of 98%.Strong enterprise features on the Enterprise tier including SSO/SAML integration, granular permissions, scheduled access, and audit logging.On-Prem deployment option available for organizations with strict data residency or network isolation requirements.

Weaknesses

Multi-monitor handling and display scaling have known limitations, particularly when viewing from mobile devices or across high-DPI displays.Session history and historical session logs are not available as a public export, limiting audit trail migration.The API is only available on Splashtop Enterprise plans, making programmatic migration access unavailable on lower tiers.Role and permission definitions are not exported as a standalone artifact, requiring inference from the Access Permissions CSV.Service desk features and SOS request workflows are enterprise-tier-only, complicating migrations for customers on Basic or Plus plans.

Where it works

MSPs and IT departments supporting 25–250+ client endpoints across mixed Windows, Mac, iOS, and Android environments, where computer-count pricing aligns with managed device inventory.Cost-sensitive organizations migrating from LogMeIn Rescue, LogMeIn Central, or TeamViewer, where 70–90% cost reduction is a primary driver and feature parity is acceptable.Internal IT help desks needing both attended support (SOS Call, web forms) and unattended access in a single subscription, without purchasing separate tools.Regulated industries requiring On-Prem deployment for strict data residency or network isolation, where cloud-only remote support tools are disqualified.Small-to-mid-market businesses (under 200 employees) with limited IT staff, where fast technician onboarding and minimal training overhead are critical before migration day.

Where it struggles

Organizations with complex multi-monitor setups or high-DPI displays, where display scaling and multi-monitor handling create usability problems during remote sessions.Technicians who must frequently view and control remote screens from mobile devices (iPhone, Android), where screen scaling and resolution adjustments are described as nearly unusable.Large enterprises requiring deep ITSM integrations, SSO/SAML automation, or programmatic API access, since those capabilities are gated behind the Enterprise tier and API access is Enterprise-only.Teams that rely on Basic or Plus plans but need service desk workflows, SOS request routing, or advanced support channel management, since these features are enterprise-tier-only.Organizations with strict audit and compliance requirements, since session history and historical session logs are not available as a public export artifact.

What gets migrated

Splashtop Remote Support object support

Object-by-object support for Splashtop Remote Support migrations. Per-pair details surface during scoping.

Computers

Fully supported

Every managed endpoint in Splashtop Remote Support is a Computer object with properties including Computer Name, Group Name, Last Session Time, and Notes. We export the full computer list as a CSV from the Management console and map each row to the destination platform's device/endpoint object. The Streamer must be reinstalled on migrated endpoints as part of any new remote support platform deployment.

Technicians

Fully supported

Technicians are the licensed users who initiate remote support sessions. We map Technicians to the destination's technician or agent object, preserving role assignments. Splashtop Remote Support tiers (Basic, Plus, Premium) limit the number of concurrent technicians, which factors into our scoping.

Computer Groups

Fully supported

Computers can be organized into named Groups for easier management and permission scoping. We export Group assignments alongside the computer list and reconstruct the group hierarchy in the destination platform. Group-level access permissions are preserved in the Access Permissions CSV.

Access Permissions

Mapping required

Access Permissions define which Technicians can reach which Computers or Groups, along with their role. Splashtop exports these as a CSV showing user-to-endpoint assignments, roles, and status. We map these to the destination platform's permission model, which may use different role names or inheritance structures, requiring explicit field mapping.

Service Desk Channels

Mapping required

Enterprise tier supports Service Desk Channels with features like SOS Call, invitation links, PIN codes, and web form widgets. Custom fields can be defined on web forms. We map Channel configurations and their associated custom field schemas, though destination ITSM platforms often use fundamentally different data models for tickets and channels.

Session History

Not in this platform

Splashtop does not expose a full session history export via its public API or admin console CSV export. Session logs are retained within the Splashtop web console but are not available as a standalone downloadable dataset. We flag this for customer awareness and note that Splashtop's REST API can export limited log data for integration with third-party analytics tools.

Computer Profiles (RDP)

Mapping required

Splashtop Connector supports importing and exporting RDP profiles as CSV files, including fields like Profile Name, Deploy Code, Enable Recording, and RDP-specific settings. We transfer profile CSVs where present, but RDP profile schemas vary significantly and often require manual reconfiguration in the destination.

SOS Requests

Mapping required

Splashtop SOS Call generates support requests from end users, which can be routed to technicians or channels. These are tracked within the Service Desk console. We map open SOS requests to the destination ticketing system, preserving requester identity and status, but the destination ticketing workflow may not have a direct equivalent.

Deployment Codes

Mapping required

Splashtop Remote Support uses deployment codes to silently install the Streamer on managed computers. These codes are scoped to the account and tied to the computer inventory. We preserve the deployment code used for each computer where available, but destination platforms use their own deployment mechanisms (agents, MDM, etc.) that must be separately configured.

User Access Role Definitions

Mapping required

Splashtop defines roles like Admin, Technician, and User with granular permission levels. The role definitions themselves are not exported as a standalone artifact; we infer them from the Access Permissions CSV. Destination platforms often use RBAC models with different built-in roles and custom permission sets that require manual alignment.
