Pros
- Ability to have RemotePC on multiple computers
- Secure password to login easily
- Access and control my office computer with ease.
Cons
- Having a short cut to transfer files
- Improved authentication ability
- Print at local printer from remote computer
Return on Investment
- Ability to login remotely from just about anywhere
- Have issues at time with loss connection
- Being able to use computer as if right in front of the computer.

Going back to competitors after 2 weeks
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
I use RemotePC on MacOS to reach my Windows computer at the office. Me and my wife use medical software which runs only on Windows. I previously used TeamViewer and AnyDesk, but tried RemotePC due to much lower price. After 2 weeks I know I need to go back to AnyDesk. My wife's prefers using free AnyDesk than premium RemotePC, because of lack of essential settings. The most important thing for us is sending key combinations - e.x ALT + F4. Checking "send combinations" button doesn't change anything. I mean it makes change, but none of two is working as should. Another
Con: total lack of key translation between macOS and Windows.
Using key combinations speeds up our work 2-3x times in software we use. If you only use RemotePC to help your family with some basic operating system issues this app will be OK.

Pros
- installation process
- additional web-based access
Cons
- long waiting time to initiate connection compare to competitors
- total lack of keyboard translation between macOS - Windows. No keyboard configuration options at all. I don't recommend macOS users, and non-english keyboard layout users.
- Key combination transfer doesn't work or behaves strange
Return on Investment
- Wasted money in my case. Need to go back well known competitors to work smooth with professional software

RemotePC - The Perfect Solution for remote access
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
There is a need to connect to desktops while remote. After trying a number of applications, we found RemotePC. It works exactly as advertised. The setup was easy, unlike some of the other apps tested.
We use RemotePC daily and it not only meets our needs, but exceeds our expectations. I highly recommend RemotePC to anyone that has a need for remote access to their computers.

I BELIEVE IT DOES NOT WORK
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
RemotePC did not work for me. I installed it to access a Mac Mini M4, OSX Sequoia 15.2 from a Dell Precision 7550 with Windows 11. I feel the latency is unacceptable. It takes 2 to 5 seconds for what I type in the remote Windows laptop to get to the Mac Mini. It's impossible to work remotely, which is what I expected and needed to do. I would not recommend it, and would not purchase it again.
Pros
- Easy installation
- Easy connection
Cons
- Unacceptable latency.
Return on Investment
- Negative, I wasted several hours installing, configuring it, trying to make it work.
