We have tried TeamViewer, but it feels too heavy, and the price is too high in some use cases. We also used Microsoft's Remote Desktop Connection for a long time, but it lacked cross-platform support. We also used several others, including Jum Desktop, but initially, we did not …

AnyDesk's advantage lies in its compatibility with older operating systems. Some other remote control systems only work with the latest versions, and older systems are incompatible. Being multi-platform, it eliminates the need for a separate remote for each environment. It …
Chose AnyDesk
The products are very similar, I think the choice lies largely in the commercial side of the offer.

We preferred the pricing of AnyDesk over Teamviewer. During our testing and trial we also found AnyDesk to be easier to use and more reliable.

Chose AnyDesk
It is easier to use and is less costly. I haven't checked the pricing recently, but since I started with AnyDesk, they have tripled their prices. Compared to the Turbo meeting, there is no device to set up or maintain, and AnyDesk address book is easier to use to maintain …
Chose AnyDesk
If my co-worker uses MacBooks, Linux development machines, or needs support on a mobile device, standard RDP/RDS cannot natively or easily provide support.
Chose AnyDesk
AnyDesk stacks up very well against 1Password. Both are equally capable of handling online access via the internet and ability to transfer and use the remote computer and all its viable features. It becomes a personal preference as to which program one is better suited for. …
Chose AnyDesk
I personally feels that, AnyDesk is much faster, affordable and user-friendly than TeamViewer so I choose AnyDesk only.

I have used AnyDesk before, and am familiar with how it works, so I didn't need to test other products as AnyDesk provided what I needed.
Chose AnyDesk
AnyDesk is simpler to use than BeyondTrust. Beyond trust is suitable for a bit, but it's a bit heavy. Major guidance is required to guide the next person. Multiple steps are involved before we get remote access. Sometimes, it gets stuck in between. Beyond trust, data transfer …
Chose AnyDesk
AnyDesk is so much easier to use than any of the alternatives I've tried, and actually has basic features like remembering passwords for unattended access. The file transfer is also a heck of a lot better on AnyDesk, as the copy and paste function just saves so much time …
Chose AnyDesk
We selected AnyDesk due to its faster deployment and end-user friendliness, which helps speed up the implementation process.

Quick connection with pre-set clients, where you can connect with or without a password, and even turn on your computer if you have it configured that way. When connecting to multiple devices, managing several windows can be confusing when, in my opinion, it could be better managed by tabs with the connections listed sequentially for visual identification.

Cons
  • we should be able to connect from windows to iphone or ipad, it is now possible to connect to ipad or iphone. AnyDesk can work on this.
  • the field where we enter remote address should be more visible. New user cannot find where to enter the remote address that takes some time to connect. AnyDesk should change the placement of it.
  • If we can change the colour theme of the UI that will be an addon thing. when you daily use AnyDesk you get bored of the same UI.
  • Just like a Xmax UI. Any desk should constantly change somethings which makes the UI visually appealing.

  • Machines must be online for actions to be performed, scopes allow you to rerun them against failed objects only but really a much better option would be for client agent to check in at power on for open jobs.
  • Newest version of Reach is glitchy on Windows 10 requiring the occasional restart of the application.

I didn't have any technical problems and I didn't suffer from bugs or errors. Customer service has improved a lot and I no longer need to leave the office to go to the user's computer. With AnyDesk I install and remove programs, printers, scanners, settings in general. Screen sharing is excellent and without delays. Overall, I recommend and approve AnyDesk.

Return on Investment
  • This helped us resolve the issues remotely, saving the cost of an FSE visit and maintaining uptime.
  • Simple and lighter version helped to use this at any customer site.
  • Without much training, it can be used anywhere. We can guide customers in the remote areas to quickly connect.

  • With a product like this it is entirely possible that you will see large increase in Help Desk efficiency for those who are willing to take the time to fully explore its possibilities.
  • Much more robust that any other remote support product I have used while still extremely cheap compared to competing products. This can bring enterprise level support options to those that may normally not be able to afford it.
  • Reporting features are invaluable to anyone wanting to truly know what is happening on their network.
