What it is, and why we rate it

One line each. Open a row for detail.

What it really isHosted remote access and remote support software with separate plans for users and IT help desks.
Our takeSplashtop covers most remote access needs at prices well below per-computer tools, and its security paperwork is in order for business buyers.
The product line is wide, so read the plan names carefully: Remote Access is for reaching your own machines, SOS is for supporting other people. The free Personal app is a home-network tool, not a free internet plan.
Why we rate itBroad features, strong security credentials and low entry prices.
The catchPrices are annual, the free app is home-network only, and enterprise controls are quote-based.
