    Best Remote Desktop manager

    Date: May 23 2020
    Summary

    Hands down the best remote desktop manager tool that I have used till date. This tool lags very less and comes very close to giving you an experience of handling remote desktop like you are handling real one.

    Positive

    I am using it from past one month and I am totally loving it. It gives the best real desktop handling experience. I am handling my clients desktop in United States and I am doing it with ease. It does not require my client to be present near his desktop all the time and I can handle all his desktop operation easily.

    Negative

    The cost of subscription is on the higher side for multiple users. It requires strong Internet connection and often I need to reconnect it due to technical issues. Although a password can be set for first time access to remote desktop but security is still a bit concern for me.

    An ideal device for remote connections for support and maintenance

    Date: Dec 31 2020
    Summary

    I suggest that if you want to run this device in your company or due to individual factors, you must have a good internet to enhance the experience, because with a negative link you will certainly have some pixelated image problems, however it is good and I suggest it. Remote equipment management makes it much easier to connect to my work computer when I’m on business trips, in addition to virtual conferences where I share my work, ideas and also discussions with my desktop computer, it has been very important for me, especially in the my organization's environment.

    Positive

    The configuration is a simple experience, it is ready to be used in seconds, this specialized tool benefits both amateur and advanced users, I like it because it can be used for various running systems, it is easy to use, it is low cost, among things what I like most is the security you use, moreover it is excellent for remote assistance.

    Negative

    There is no adverse element to highlight, however, it can be said that sometimes the connection is not stable, therefore it is not an unfavorable point, only that a great link is needed to improve the experience.

    AnyDesk is a remote accessibility tool for any need

    Date: Dec 24 2020
    Summary

    I advise AnyDesk to provide technological support solutions in different systems. No technical knowledge is required to make a remote link. In addition, it is cheap. The most significant advantage that AnyDesk offers is multiplatform assistance, as we can connect from gadgets like Windows, Linux, macOS and also Android. I use it regularly to connect from another location to the computers at our company's various headquarters and solve software application problems, which saves us money and time that we previously spent transporting to each workplace.

    Positive

    AnyDesk is a fantastic platform due to the fact that there is almost no disturbance on the remote link. One of the most essential points is that this software application has applications for several devices, such as desktop or cell phone. In addition, it is possible to transfer files between linked devices. It is a very basic device, which helps a lot in connecting customers without computer experience.

    Negative

    There are some things I don't like about AnyDesk. For starters, it is not possible to change the conversation when the screen is being shared. Also, I don't like the fact that I have to close the screen to move the data.

    The 'easiest to use' cross platform remote desktop software there is!

    Date: May 23 2020
    Summary

    I think AnyDesk is an amazing piece of software that has really made our lives easier during the times of quarantine. Given the fact that this is free software I would like to genuinely thank the developers for creating it. We use it at our company on almost every PC and couldn't ask for more.

    Positive

    - Cross-Platform (a Linux PC can be controlled from an Android device and vice versa).
    - Very little setup time
    - Features like 'session recording' are very useful when a critical task is being demonstrated and needs to be revisited.
    - Very good management of keyboard shortcuts etc. compared to other software like TeamViewer wherein it's not very clear if the shortcuts are being applied to the current desktop of remote desktop.
    - Multiple people can join a single session and view/control the same desk making collaborative tasks a piece of cake.

    Negative

    - Slightly laggy at times when the amount of graphics is high.
    - Lags for a few seconds when a new member tries to join/access the desk that you are accessing currently.
    - Occasionally reports that the remote desk is not available but then resolves itself after some time with no interference by the user.

    Probably the simplest yet powerful remote desktop application

    Date: May 24 2020
    Summary

    I think AnyDesk provides the most seamless user experience out there. Have been using it regularly since the quarantine and it has never failed me except one time when the app had to be reset on the remote end.

    Positive

    - The ease of use is insane. Just install it in both the PCs and you're up and running.
    - The fact that it works on Android makes it really easy for me to help my grandparents with some of their problems while using phones :)
    - The session recording feature is pretty neat, very useful for future reference.

    Negative

    - Quite laggy and annoying behaviour at times, especially when graphics are high.
    - Sometimes randomly displays that remote desk is not available but then starts working by itself after some time.
