Chrome Remote Desktop vs. RemoteView

It is well suited in cases where your company/organization is looking for a low/no cost remote desktop solution, or is looking for something that can be used by most anyone right away. Most organizations don't want things to be too complex, especially with a remote desktop solution, which is generally not very complex software to begin with. It would be less appropriate in cases where the company/organization has already purchased licensing for a commercial product, and/or has been heavily using a commercial product for some time.

RemoteView is a technical customer success expert's dream. It allows us to remotely view, gain access, and control/modify a device that we do not have physical access to. On customer calls, we are able to log into the customers' Google admin console and help correct some issues on the client side, which leads to higher customer satisfaction when working with our company. RemoteView removes the necessity to be on-site with the user and their device and greatly increases our output.

• Unlike Microsoft's Remote Desktop, this program is the same across platforms, which is helpful for users.
• This program also allows direct control over the desktop (like TeamViewer) and doesn't give you a simulated log on (like Remote Desktop). This is advantageous for seeing exactly what's on the screen but can make it a little laggy.
• The interface is very nice and clear once it's set up. It's obvious which computer is which and it's just a couple of clicks from opening the program to a connection.
• The mobile app is also really really well done.

• More fluid video rendering. Does a good job, but could use a more consistent framerate at times.
• A way to easier switch between multiple monitors.
• Adding an ability to zoom for multi-monitor display. Sometimes on a single screen it can get difficult to read if trying to view them all.

A very easy lightweight tool that is completely scalable and deployed via google admin platform. The tool is free to use and works extremely well with the chrome devices we currently have deployed. Any organization using chrome or google suites should look into this tool as it's much easier to use then other remote software in the market

Just a great product that has saved countless hours of commute to work and given the flexibility to be able to work from anywhere, whether at home or when away on holiday overseas. I love that it is a free product and is just as great as its competitors' products. It has also allowed me to prepare for work for the following day.

The only support I ever accessed were help files and web tutorials. I never tried to access personal support, mostly because I don't believe much of it is available. As a free service, my expectations for support are pretty low; that said, Chrome Remote Desktop is easy enough to configure and troubleshoot even with limited technical knowledge.

Chrome Remote Desktop seems to be a an easy to use and efficient program. Such as TeamViewer, however TeamViewer offers more program features such as able to control a device's function (shutting down, restarting, audio input, cmd etc). With those added program features I believe Chrome Remote Desktop can almost be up to par with TeamViewer.

TeamViewer had issues in the past with latency, and for that reason, we switched over to RemoteView. It seems quite clear now that RemoteView has the strongest feature set in this space, and has greatly corrected the latency issues. I am not sure if TeamViewer is still used today, but we are very happy with the feature set that RemoteView offers our company. We are able to improve our ROI based on the features we get from this software.
