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 …

Chose Getscreen.me
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 …
Chose Getscreen.me
Value for money is the main difference. For the cost - nothing touches Getscreen.me!
Chose Getscreen.me
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
While TeamViewer is a more mature/developed product. TeamViewer has more features and the interface is very similar but TeamViewer feels better. While TeamViewer currently takes the lead by a small margin for us, Getscreen.me is a very capable application for our needs. For …
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
more complete solution than anything else I have tried, and more cost effective than any other commercial application
Chose Getscreen.me
Occasionally I have to supply aid to friends or family members, or I desire to discuss how I want to share the television screen over the call in GetScreen.me. One click can create a key and share it; the sessions begin when it arrives. I'm keeping an eye on specific computers …
Chose Getscreen.me
Getscreen.me is easier to use as a support agent and on the client end. Remote access works much better than both Zoom or Teams. Those programs often to not work well for remote access when sharing screens
Chose Getscreen.me
First of all, I do not need to install anything, I can basically work everywhere even in-network where the internet is restricted like company networks. Cheaper than TeamViewer and more options were added frequently due to the high demand of features requested and the dev team …
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.

  • 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.

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.
