What is SupremeViewer?

SupremeViewer is a lightweight Remote Desktop Access software with a free option, that allows to connect and control a computer from a remote location. It is used for variety of purposes, including: screen sharing, file transfer, and remote desktop control.

The software consist of two parts: client (SupremeViewer Client) and server (SupremeViewer Server). The users install SupremeViewer Client software on their devices to connect to host computers where the SupremeViewer Server is installed. This allows them to work or manage files as if they were physically present at the remote location. Having separate client and server is more secure and useful for companies that prohibit installing software that allow inbound connections to the company infrastructure. If the local computer is used only to access remote hosts there is no need to allow access from the outside world.

Users can choose to install the software and allow unattended access to the remote computer or just run it in "one time use" mode, without installation and without administrative privileges. The setup is designed to be navigable for non-technical users.

SupremeViewer is a free for personal and small business use, without any session time limitations.
According to SupremeViewer, many remote access products claim that they are free, however there are hidden restrictions that are quite annoying. For example they drop the session after a certain period of time, they monitor the software overall usage and after a period of time they do not allow free usage at all. This sometimes happens unexpected and without a warning sign. SupremeViewer states their free option does not pose any restrictions during the entire period of usage.
