Splashtop is barely useful if you only need to work remotely rarely and for just a few minutes. Otherwise, it’s a pain.
Splashtop has a fairer licensing model than most other providers, but it’s still way too expensive. WARNING! Splashtop is a nightmare: We’re Splashtop Business customers and are having a lot of trouble: ❯ Splashtop SOS hasn’t been working for months—so it’s not being fixed ❯ The “Splashtop Business” admin console makes your own computer EXTREMELY slow - even when no remote desktop is active! ❯ An active remote desktop makes your own computer MASSIVELY slower ❯ Splashtop does NOT provide professional transmission of the remote computer’s screen content; it transmits pixels. That’s why the remote screen is transmitted EXTREMELY slowly: you constantly have to wait 10 seconds or longer, e.g. whenever the remote computer displays the UAC screen. With all other solutions, this takes just a fraction of a second. Our conclusion? Splashtop is barely useful if you only need to work remotely rarely and for just a few minutes. Otherwise, it’s a great pain.
