Chose DeskRoll Remote Desktop
We've used various services - RemotePC, LogMeIn, Go2MyPC, etc. We have used it all and none have been as great as DeskRoll Remote Desktop. In other versions, the screen is not super legible, meaning the text is fuzzy or ill-fitting to the viewer's PC screen. We've experienced …

DeskRoll Remote DesktopGLPI
Likelihood to Recommend
DeskRoll Remote Desktop is well suited for consultant and remote support. It's less appropriate for clients worried about security and anytime remote access.

GLPI is
well suited to an on prem environment, I work for a company that values open-source
software and European solutions.
I have no
experience with GLPI cloud hosted solution or their support as we have in house
devs that fix and improve our installation, their community in the support forum
is excellent if you have a question or want advice on an issue.

We’ve used
GLPI for many years and the interface has gotten better with every major
release, the dashboard is easy to use and customizable.

With the
massive catalogue of plugins, you can change or add so many features and if you
have the right team, you can turn it into a completely unique piece of
software.

So, if the
default setup isn’t to your liking you can tweak it extensively.

We've used various services - RemotePC, LogMeIn, Go2MyPC, etc. We have used it all and none have been as great as DeskRoll Remote Desktop. In other versions, the screen is not super legible, meaning the text is fuzzy or ill-fitting to the viewer's PC screen. We've experienced click delays, and recurring issues where we get kicked off and our data is lost. However, that doesn't happen with DeskRoll Remote Desktop.

We selected GLPI because it is free software, and because of the potential it expected to have. We do not consider other alternatives.
