Anyone tried this? Is it better than PC Anywhere?

[PostWhore]

Never tried it, but remote desktop is the way to go.

Yes, I've used it for the last 6 months or so but I couldnt tell you if its better than PC Anywhere since I haven't used that. Gotomypc works perfectly for my needs but can get a little pricy as you have to pay for each comp that uses it.

I think they have a multi-pc special discount deal for networks which is what I was looking at it for.

I have PC Anywhere now but its more complex on the configuration apect of it when you hook up stuff behind firewalls.

Well I'm using the Gotomypc pro which gives a discount for multiple comps but is still pricy in comparison to the one time price you pay to buy PC anywhere. But I feel that gotomypc is more user friendly.

I have a LOT of experience with gotomypc and real vnc. I used them when I ran a studio. I lke real vnc better for sure

i'm using it since Jan and it works like a charm

I have been hearing about it on XM Radio.. I always wondered how it would work. they have a free subscription thru XM. I guess you get 30 days free if you put your promo code XM into it.

I never had use for it, but I am going to be traveling for a month, so I am checking into it.

I have been using Gotomypc for over a year now, Much better than PC anywhere. The best by far is remote desktop. Sometimes its so good i forget which computer i'm on.

One of my best friends spends months at a time in the Far East and uses that to access home stuff no problem

Why would you install a free 3rd party, or buy a 3rd party remote
connecting software, when you type "conf" in "Run.." and start
Netmeeting?

A one time prefs fill out and from there all you need is the IP address
of the other machine which has Netmeeting running.

Be smart, use what you already have.
