Its interface is very simple and clear. However the software includes all options needed for successful work. It even allows you to wake your PC remotely.

It has no limit for simultaneous connections. I am admin, and this tool helped me a lot in the LAN management.

Not bad. Usually works fine, but sometimes it doesn't allow to connect to my remote partner. Although in general it's OK.

It's not as annoying as Teamviewer. It's said that the app is free, and it's indeed free!
