I've never used another tool for this purpose in the past so I can't compare it to anything else. I know that there are plenty of other tools out there that have this kind of functionality, but it's just not something I'm able to compare as I haven't had the occasion to use …

Getscreen.me just works, and it works easily. There's no complex set up, no odd pricing, and the central management is wonderful.

Chose Getscreen.me
In my experience, Getscreen.me stacks up very well against other remote desktop software like TeamViewer and AnyDesk. One of the things I appreciate most about Getscreen.me is its competitive pricing. Compared to other remote control services like TeamViewer or AnyDesk, I find …

Chose Getscreen.me
Teamviewer is more complicated than Getscreen.me. Plus I'm not sure it does the automatic IP resolution. More importantly, you can have permanent access to the computer without having the user to re-authorize anything. Once they've downloaded the software and run it, you have …
Chose Getscreen.me
This is a newer app and with work to do, but doesn't break the bank - especially like TeamViewer which goes up year on year.
Chose Getscreen.me
Getscreen.me works very well. The current feature set works well and I look forward to them adding more features. For ad-hoc support sessions, GSM works as well as anyone out there.

Apache Guacamole is well suited for providing remote access and controlling administrative servers/devices in small to medium-scale deployments. Guacamole client is an HTML5 web application, to use it you only need any modern web browser. In my opinion, the developers' choice to use Tomcat/Java made the application somewhat heavyweight with too many dependencies. If we manage to resolve the stability issues we would likely use it for employees' access to their workstations company-wide.

Cons
  • We have experienced some stability problems (mostly Tomcat related).
  • The interface could be a little more user-friendly.

  • On a mac, better ability to trigger a hidden dock
  • Certain key commands don't work and only trigger the computer you're actually on, not the remote one.
  • Make it a little less IT focused and a bit more layman friendly with some naming and features.

For what we need it to do, it just works. And I'm sure that we're not even using it to the full extent of what it's capable and designed to do. If we had the need, Getscreen.me has many more features that we could implement. If the need arises in the future, it's great knowing that we already have a tool to utilize.
