ScreenHero integrates with Slack and that's awesome! While ScreenHero isn't quite the same as Zoom or HighFive, it's surely more casual. It's great for a quick call to explain something to another rep in the office. There aren't as many scheduling options in ScreenHero, but …

We originally chose Screenhero for ease of use as a quick solution to inter-team communication for teams separated by physical distance (cross country and in different offices).

Chrome Remote Desktop is the only other one that allows for both users to interact, but it is not near as intuitive or have the ability to "just work". Slack does screen sharing now, but it seems to struggle with priority of bandwidth between audio and showing the screen. I …

Remote Desktop is a Windows platform specific feature. There are viewers for Linux and OSX, but the remote end (which needs to be managed) primarily needs to be Windows (I know there is xrdp and servers for Linux but there are better options in that case). VNC is a good open …

Screenhero being acquired by Slack was honestly the primary reason we selected it over TeamViewer. Our organization is heavily invested in Slack's enterprise solution, so choosing Screenhero was a pretty easy decision. On top of that, Screenhero delivers very well on its core …

  • Pair development
  • Knowledge Shares
  • Bug-reporting and explanation
  • Audio/voice integration WITH video share
  • Makes gaming very fun
  • Copy/Paste works flawlessly from my computer to another screenhero users computer.
  • Screenhero works with screen-recording software, so not only can I pair-develop, I can take video of a pair development session.
  • I can't think of any reason why Screenhero wouldn't be suited for any situation. I would say that they need to bring back the option for a native app capability outside of the slack app like they did during the Slack merge transition.

Cons
  • There have been some periods of time where the multi-user screen share option is not available.
  • Recently there was a glitch where the app didn't end the call or establish the link well and it froze and kept calling the other user without them meaning to.
  • Wish there was a user search option. The scrolling can get tedious when there are a large number of users in your network to choose from.

We originally chose Screenhero for ease of use as a quick solution to inter-team communication for teams separated by physical distance (cross country and in different offices). However: -Screenhero does not have a way to link up outside callers like Join.me and GoToMeeting have -Screenhero is not a catalogued internal chat communication platform like Slack is Screenhero is good at what it does, but is only one facet of a much larger solution

Return on Investment
  • It allows cutting down required meeting time to solve an issue.
  • Makes it very easy to debug problems on the remote end which could otherwise take forever.
  • If you got in, it's free.
