Title: Alternative to GoToMyPC
Post by Laura Oliver on 07/18/19 at 09:30:33

Good Morning,
Our GoToMyPC has run less than a$99 a year since 2012. This year it went up to almost $500. I called them thinking it was a mistake but it was not so I cancelled it as i only use it a few times a year. Does anyone have experience with an alternative that handles DBA/EVO very well
Thanks
Laura

Try TeamViewer. I do not know if it will do what you want. It allows me to fix my Mothers computer without having to travel. ;D

You can look into Connectwise Control. Works pretty well and won't break the bank. https://www.connectwise.com/software/control

TeamViewer works very well. Only draw back if your using for personal use its free, but if you use for business then they charge by the year not on a monthly basis.

I just downloaded Google Desktop remote. https://remotedesktop.google.com/ So far so good.
What I like about it is that is a quick and easy install and free. Another great thing is that as long as the remote is logged in under the same Google id (google emai) as the Host you dont need any special setup or access codes on the remote.

I am sure there are some negatives but I havent found them yet.
