AI Generated Summary
AI-generated. Powered by real user reviews.
  • G2 reviewers report that Splashtop Remote Access excels in overall user satisfaction, boasting a significantly higher G2 Score compared to Parsec. Users appreciate its reliability, with one noting, "This is a reliable product, and I really appreciate being able to have three screens open at once."
  • Users say that Splashtop Remote Access offers a seamless experience for connecting to multiple monitors, making it feel like they are working in their office environment. One user highlighted, "I can easily connect and work as if I am at the other location," showcasing its effectiveness for remote work.
  • Reviewers mention that while Parsec provides excellent configuration options for tuning speed and quality, it falls short in overall user satisfaction and support metrics compared to Splashtop. Users noted, "Video latency and input lag as well as controller support are better than most other solutions," but the overall experience still lags behind.
  • According to verified reviews, Splashtop Remote Access is praised for its ease of setup and administration, with users finding the onboarding process intuitive. This contrasts with Parsec, where some users reported challenges in setup, stating that it could be "extremely easy to implement under most common circumstances," but not universally.
  • G2 reviewers highlight that Splashtop Remote Access has a strong presence in the small business market, with 84.2% of reviews coming from this segment. This suggests that it is well-tailored to the needs of smaller teams, while Parsec's focus on mid-market users may not resonate as well with smaller organizations.
  • Users express that Splashtop Remote Access provides a high-quality support experience, with a score that reflects its commitment to customer service. In contrast, Parsec's support quality, while still good, does not match the level of satisfaction reported by Splashtop users, indicating a potential area for improvement.
