April 28, 2025

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

AnyDesk is used for remote workers or home workers to access their PC's in the office. It makes remoting in for people easier than having to use a VPN. Takes a step away and anyone who services a lot of users knows, the less they have to do the better.

Pros

Solid connection
Sees multiple screens
User experience is customizable
Easy to set up

Cons

While easy to use, sometimes settings are difficult to find.

Likelihood to Recommend

It has been well suited for whatever I have used it for, which is remote access.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We used AnyDesk for remote support - Any time one of our members of staff had an issue, we would connect to them to resolve the issue. We needed software that would allow us to connect remotely with password protected unattended access and file transfer capabilities, which AnyDesk seems to do perfectly.

Pros

File transfers - Being able to just copy and paste multiple files is perfect.
Connection - Once connected, it seems very stable.
Unattended access - Being able to create and roll out a customised client with unattended access enabled saves us a lot of time getting things set up in the first instance

Cons

Being able to view system resource usage at a glance
Being able to view system *uptime* at a glance
Being able to view network usage/information at a glance

Likelihood to Recommend

Any scenario where remote support is required is perfect for AnyDesk - There isn't really that much else to it. The extra features like the remembering of passwords for unattended access and being able to copy and paste files are amazing for remote support, even if it's still possible to remotely support someone without it.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use AnyDesk to support remote access between our business clients and their office computers from home. Additionally, we utilize AnyDesk to offer easy-to-use remote support to our users when they require our technical assistance, and we need to view their screen to identify issues.

Pros

No install software.
Remote printing.
User friendly.

Cons

Lack of automatic reconnect after reboot.
Better user interface for unattended access setup.

Likelihood to Recommend

It is well-suited when there is no VPN software or remote desktop combination available; it is easy to use AnyDesk to provide remote access for off-site workers. Additionally, it is an excellent tool for remote support for techs, as it is very seamless to guide an inexperienced user through the client download process.

AnyDesk is great for on-demand attended support.

Rating: 7 out of 10

April 15, 2025

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use AnyDesk to connect to client machines on demand but attended for quick remote support requests. These requests usually involve troubleshooting Windows or application error messages, training, or demonstrating features in new software releases that we provide. Many clients will not grant us unattended permission to view or control their machines, so AnyDesk is a nice fit for that scenario.

Pros

Easy to provide instructions to a client on how to download, install, and use.
Small RAM footprint for those machines that are running low on RAM.
Easy to transfer files.

Cons

We experience more connection timeouts and disconnects with AD than with other screensharing products.
I've occasionally experienced crashes that are only resolved by reinstalling the software.
Load time on initial connection is often slow.

Likelihood to Recommend

AnyDesk has served us well for one-time screen sharing with clients. Our clients like that this won't leave an app running that will allow us access unattended. It's excellent for simple support and training issues. We have standardized on another product for unattended access, and I'm not sure how well-suited AnyDesk is for that task.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We are a practice management software for clinics. We are available in 15+ countries and have only one office in India. Initially when we decided not to go for field sales and no physical meetings or demos at all. It was hard for us to be in touch with clients and show them demo of our product. But AnyDesk helped us a lot in solving this problem. We use AnyDesk for demo, solving the queries of clients and we can quickly connect to any system and see whatever the issue is and solve them. AnyDesk helped us in converting potential clients and giving them technical support which is the most important thing in any SAAS-based product. AnyDesk helps in all the aspects of our sales and after-sales process. We use AnyDesk on a day-to-day basis within our team as well as with the clients. It saves a lot of our time and makes the process faster.

Pros

connect to any system it may be MacOS or windows, it works smoothly.
We can access the screen and clink on the connected screen.
we can restrict access as we want according to our requirement so that there is no fear of loosing the access.

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.

Likelihood to Recommend

We were using Zoom for our meeting where we needed to access the screen but it was so difficult to in Zoom to kame them host and then ask them to share the screen (if the user is new it takes time) and them request access. It is very time-consuming. But using AnyDesk it makes it very easy and quick to share the screen and get access.
