Are you looking for software or means of connecting to other people’s computers for remote assistance sessions, allowing you to control the targeted PC over the web, with minimal effort? Then you can try ScreenConnect.

What’s ScreenConnect?

ScreenConnect will quickly and securely access remote users’ screens. With just a few clicks, anyone on any operating system is immediately connected. With ScreenConnect you can: Remote control any computer over the internet; Access unattended computers; Share your own screen with other people; Support Windows, Mac, and Linux users; and Support with Android and iOS phones and tablets.

The tabbed interface of ScreenConnect allows you to switch between ‘Support’, ‘Meetings’ and ‘Access’, enabling you to create a new session by entering the client computer’s details. The software works on a ‘Invite / Join’ basis, supporting multiple simultaneous operations.

ScreenConnect does not need a client application installed on the targeted machine, which makes it easier both for the person in front of that PC and for you to work with, the only condition being the Internet access. Nonetheless, users have the option of creating an installer that can be run on remote systems, thereby allowing them choose the name, extension type, and ‘Join Mode’ (‘Invitation Only’, ‘Published’, ‘Simple Code’, ‘Secure Code’). ScreenConnect allows for communication between computers, while also providing you with the possibility of creating a shared folder between the two.

Does it have any downside?

It is limited to a 30 day trial. Full version cost $325.
