About UltraVNC

UltraVNC is a remote access management solution designed to help organizations manage operations related to helpdesk, IT support services, demonstrations, and e-learning. The platform allows administrators to connect and communicate with users and control desktops using internal networks or the internet.

UltraVNC enables professionals to view and manage applications, settings, interface and more via Remote Frame Buffer (RFB) protocol. It comes with DiskStation Manager (DSM) encryption, which lets viewers and servers establish a secure communication connection, providing security from any unauthorized access. Additionally, the single click transfer module, lets administrators compress data and transfer files/folders between computers.

UltraVNC includes chat functionality, which allows users to communicate securely via text messages. It is available for free and support is provided via email, documentation and other online measures.

    While it could be various configuration issues unique to our installation, I think UltraVNC is in need of further development.

    Great open source solution for remote computer management and diagnostics

    4

    The UltraVNC Single Click version has been great to provide to my clients without having to worry about licensing issues. Many of them are computer novices so not having to talk them through installing more complex software and changing network settings has been a real time saver.

    Pros:
    UltraVNC is a great open source solution for remote desktop connections and being free for commercial use means big savings if you've got a lot of users that need occasional support. The software is small and easy to install and includes a variety of options to suit different Internet connection speeds. There's also a Single Click version that allows you to create a custom executable that can be distributed to customers preconfigured to connect to your IP address which saves them needing to configure the firewall at their end to support incoming connections.
    Cons:
    Compared to some proprietary software like Microsoft Remote Desktop and TeamViewer the screen updates appear to be a little slower and there can be occasional glitches that need a screen repaint. While not a big deal for remote support incidents it may be worth looking at other options if you're intending working over a remote connection for extended periods of time.

    Pros:
    After everything is configured Ultra VNC is a breeze to use, all we need is the PC name and password.
    Cons:
    I with Ultra VNC had a function to black out the users screen. We find that they often don't understand that we need them to stop what they're doing in order for us to help so a fight over the curser ensues. For the same reason a chat feature would be nice.
