    Cons
    Apache
    • We have experienced some stability problems (mostly Tomcat related).
    • The interface could be a little more user-friendly.
    • Certain keyboard shortcuts used by Guacamole GUI are impossible to use in the Firefox browser in out-of-the-box configuration.

    • The software is 100% open source and free, however, we are not currently utilizing it due to stability problems we have experienced.
