The best remote access software
Every employee is working from home. The software is fast, transparent and seemless.
PROSI have used quite a few solutions to remote access software. Most are very complex and difficult to use. VPN was almost impossible for the users to use. Splash top was a breath of fresh air. I chose it because of the reviews it had. I downloaded the trial and installed it on the desktop server in minutes. That process was seamless. Then I had each user integrate the access from their remotes. Not a single user had any connection issues. We are now all working from home as if we were in the office. This software is excellent. We are accessing from laptops, iPhones, androids, iMacs and notebooks. No issues!
CONSI have no reservations at all. This software is by far, the best remote access software I have ever seen.
Reason for choosing Splashtop
The tests I ran were very successful. There were no connectivity issues and the product operational speed was phenomenal.
Reasons for switching to Splashtop
Teamviewer was very difficult for my users to implement at home.

Remote Access Software That Works Well and Doesn't Compromise Access Control
Splashtop has allowed us to confidently provide secure, remote access for technicians to help end users and remote manage systems for maintenance and support. The product has been very reliable and the costs and licensing model make it well worth it. The licensing which is based on the number of technicians instead of endpoints, benefits organizations like ours with many computers but few technicians.
PROSOur priority when looking for a solution for remote access and support was transparency and access control. With remote access, controlling access is critical. Our previous product, TeamViewer, had many back-doors that could not be managed or audited.For comparison, here are some vulnerabilities in TeamViewer...- Anyone with local admin rights can create a password to remote connect to the computer. This allows any-time access, without the system administrator even knowing that access had been setup.- TeamViewer displays a unique code that anyone at the computer can see, write down, and use to connect remotely. A policy can be setup to rotate the code after each session, but the code itself could not be entirely disabled.- Setting certain access policies to mitigate these issues, such as white lists, created problems when software vendors also used TeamViewer for remote one-time product support.By contrast...- Splashtop only allows remote access if the user/tech has active credentials in the organization.- Access can be further restricted by making sure that the remote user has local (AD) credentials for the remote endpoint.- Modifying the client on an endpoint can be restricted by supplying Splashtop credentials so that even a local admin can't modify them
CONSSplashtop works great for our needs, and I have almost no complaints. The user interface works well but doesn't look very modern or pretty. This is the first thing that currently comes to mind when I think about ways to improve the product.
Reasons for switching to Splashtop
TeamViewer was more expensive and had access control vulnerabilities that were unacceptable.

Well, it works...
Always worked, easy, and great if you have an endless IT budget.
PROSIt's pretty easy to set up, has all the features you would need to be able to remote on someone's machine without hassle and do what needs be done.
CONSThe cost of what this product actually does is highly inflated. Should be at least half the cost of what it is now.
Reason for choosing Splashtop
Actually, I didn't choose it. But when I came onboard, I dropped the renewal and went with ManageEngine products to replace Splashtop. Splashtop was too expensive for what it does. Getting much more bang for my buck now with ManageEngines Endpoint Central.
