Best Remote Desktop management tool
Overall its the best that runs smoothly without having consuming too much of RAM. It is must have tool especially during this work from home period. It works seamlessly in day to day usage.
PROSIt is easy to use. It has clean and simple user interface. It works on almost every desktop operating system. We can access it from anywhere with ease. It has two step verification system that allows us to safely login without the fear of getting hacked. Verification is always sent to mail every time we login so that its safe and at the same easy to use. It doesn't take up so much memory while running.
CONSIt doesn't work properly with slow internet connection. It gets disconnected automatically sometimes when there is even slight fluctuations in internet. Sometimes the verification mail doesn't get sent when we try to login. macOS client is slow compared to windows client.

Buggy client software that frequently and intermittently fails to connect
Extremely poor.- continual intermittently desktop display issues- very poor audio when attending teams meetings (need to email meeting invite to my local account and attend meetings as an "external" party which confuses people)- No file transfer from remote desktop to local- Linux client and Web Clients give authentication failure, need to use MacOS or Windows only despite the websites claims (misleading information)- Support don't address issues even when calls have been logged for months, and end user is not able to contact support directly (non-existant support)
PROSIf it worked as it's supposed to it would be a great way to provide a remote desktop for external contractors such as myself. It's a pity it doesn't work reliably
CONSThe AWS Workspaces client is buggy, it frequently and intermittently fails to connect, or will connect but instead of showing the desktop shows a white screen the size of the remote desktop, my client has had a call logged with AWS for months to fix this issue, and despite 2-3 client versions being released this issue continues to plague their service.
