Anybody have any recommends for PCAnywhere-type services?

1 pointsby oditogreover 16 years ago
I thought there was a YC company that did that sort of thing, but at any rate, anybody have any preferred services? VNC might also be acceptable (I've used TightVNC elsewhere before). Assume Windows on both ends.<p>*Edit: Oh...and on the cheap, preferably, but not to the extreme that it's at the expense of quality / security.

RDP is actually a little better than VNC if you are using windows (imo)<p>personally, I do everything in Linux in a shell. The only GUI I use on a regular basis is the web browser. With SSH, unless your connection is just horrible, it's difficult to tell if you are working locally or on a box hundreds of miles away. But if you want a GUI, that doesn't help you. Use RDP.

Why do you need a service? Just asking, but it seems like if you're mildly technically oriented and have control of the endpoint machines, then VLC or RDP is going to be cheap (free) and as good or better than any hosted application.
