An excellent remote access app

Finally, a good and freeware remote access software app with many features.

PROS

1. The biggest advantage is that it is free for everyone to use. 2. Download size is very less and installation happens very quickly and easily. 3. It is very feature rich- File transfer feature, multiple connections option and demonstration mode which allow the remote user to view the desktop but not move cursor and use keyboard.

CONS

I did not find anything to dislike in the app but i wanted to suggest to the developer to increase the size of the options menu on the left hand side of the app.

Not the top remote desktop software

Dismal at best. Slow response for customer support, even after I paid. I asked for a refund because it's just not working right for me and they don't answer.

PROS

I could sometimes get access to a client server I needed to access.

CONS

Many times, I just could not connect. This led me to another product.

Reason for choosing Distant Desktop

I was in a hurry due to a emergency support issue. I picked wrong.
