    I think for ANY environment it's worth taking it out for a test drive. It's very powerful, especially when using the agent to connect to sessions where the end user doesn't need admin rights but when not in a VDI environment it likely would perform better with its built in functionality to ask for elevation. It is really powerful, even with the ability to run command line scripts without the user seeing (kind of a built in psexec) and it does work with Mac and Linux to some degree too so it really is worth trying out regardless of your environment. It may be just what you're looking for and the sales folks at DRE are not pushy at all, at least in my experience, and give great advice even at the expense of selling less licenses!

    SupremeViewer is best for troubleshooting technical issues on remote computers. You can do connections all over the world without any configurations. Just run or install and connect. It is secured and works behind NAT. The easy installation process without additional configuration helps a lot when our customers need to run the server.

    • Connectivity to a helpdesk/knowledgebase would be nice feature so users can do self-help
    • Offering a branded version of the client/agent would be a nice touch for businesses

    We basically selected this for our one of the SolarWinds Project. In that we needed to take remote session and screensharing and do the analysis and troubleshooting. In our initial analysis itself we got the excellent result, and it was too quick. We were very much inspired from this. Later on, we started using SolarWinds Dameware Remote Everywhere (DRE) for almost all the projects of SolarWinds. Highly appreciated, thanks team.

    At the beginning we used Windows Remote Desktop service. The main problem with Remote Desktop was that the remote computer needs a publicly visible IP address which will allow us to connect to that PC. For that reason we started using TeamViewer. TeamViewer works great behind NAT and with its free option was best solution for small company as ours. I think that now they are mainly targeting corporate customers and the price of their products is too high for us. This led us to look for other solutions. That's how we discovered SupremeViewer.

    • seamless installation of MSI or EXE
    • No Codes to enter when installing agent
    • Agent automatically connects to cloud dashboard
    • our deployment tool has messed up a couple of times, so agents get uninstalled or not installed when this occurs, and we can't see a computer in the dashboard
