"Easy Setup, Fast Cross-Device Remote Support with AnyDesk"
5/5
What do you like best about AnyDesk?

AnyDesk is easy to set up and very useful for quick remote access and support. I like that it connects fast, works across different devices, and usually performs well even on weaker connections. It makes troubleshooting, file access, and helping someone remotely much simpler without needing to be physically present. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AnyDesk?

AnyDesk can sometimes be inconsistent depending on the internet connection or device being used. Session quality may drop, remote control can feel delayed, and permissions or unattended access settings are not always obvious for less technical users. Security prompts and connection restrictions can also interrupt the workflow when quick support is needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Fast, Stable Remote Access That Keeps Our Operations Moving"
5/5
What do you like best about AnyDesk?

What I like most about AnyDesk is how fast and stable the connection is, even when I’m accessing systems across different countries. In our day-to-day operations, we often need to connect remotely to colleagues, finance systems, or outsourced team members’ devices, and the low latency makes it feel almost like working locally. That directly improves efficiency, especially for time-sensitive tasks like payments, reporting, and routine system checks.

From a workflow standpoint, features such as unattended access and simple file transfer are extremely useful. For instance, being able to securely log into a finance workstation without needing someone on the other end saves a lot of coordination and back-and-forth. The built-in file transfer also lets us move reports, invoices, and supporting documents quickly, without having to rely on separate tools.

The UI is straightforward and easy to navigate, which keeps onboarding smooth for non-technical team members. We didn’t need structured training-people were able to start using it right away. This is especially helpful in cross-functional teams where not everyone is tech-focused.

In terms of performance, it’s lightweight and doesn’t demand heavy system resources, which matters when I’m running multiple tools at the same time (finance dashboards, BI tools, and similar apps). It also feels responsive and less disruptive than other options we’ve tried.

One unexpected benefit has been how well it holds up on weaker internet connections. That reliability has made it a dependable choice when traveling or working remotely from different locations.

From a pricing and ROI perspective, it provides strong value given how frequently we depend on remote access to maintain operational continuity. In many cases, it removes the need for physical presence, saving time as well as indirect costs.

Overall, AnyDesk has become a critical tool for maintaining operational flexibility, especially in a fast-paced environment where quick access and responsiveness really matter. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AnyDesk?

While AnyDesk performs very well overall, there are still a few areas where it could be stronger.

From a finance and operations standpoint, the main gap is auditability. More detailed session logs and clearer user activity tracking would improve accountability, especially in situations where multiple people access the same systems.

The file transfer feature is helpful, but it lacks visibility. There isn’t a clear transfer history or an easy way to track which documents were sent, which can be limiting when you’re working with financial files or reports.

Finally, when managing multiple sessions, the interface can feel a bit basic. A more structured way to organize sessions-such as grouping or tagging devices—would make it easier to navigate and improve overall usability.

None of these are major blockers, but addressing them would make AnyDesk even more effective for finance-driven and operational workflows. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Efficient, Lightweight Remote Work Tool with Minor Feature Wish"
4.5/5
What do you like best about AnyDesk?

I like that AnyDesk makes working from home easier with its easy file transfer and low latency, which is really fast. It's very lightweight, so it doesn't reduce my PC performance. It's helpful to operate other PCs or laptops directly, even from a distance. I find the app really safe and secure, which is important, and I was able to operate my teammate's laptop who was 2,600 kilometers away. AnyDesk helps me work from anywhere, and I appreciate that it doesn't require any cloud service for file sharing. It's great that it works across different operating systems like mobile phones, Windows, Mac, and Linux. The setup is too easy; just share the address, and you're done, which even a beginner can handle. It's so common that I've found AnyDesk installed on many office laptops.

What do you dislike about AnyDesk?

Generally, it’s easy to use. I had AnyDesk on my work laptop, and for a long time I didn’t really understand what the software actually does,I just knew that we could use it to remotely control a computer. The only thing I didn’t like is that sometimes it has issues when transferring larger files. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Lightweight, User-Friendly, and Seamlessly Integrated Across Devices"
5/5
What do you like best about AnyDesk?

It’s lightweight and very user-friendly. The system integration works well on mobile and tablets, especially when you’re accessing your main computer. It loads quickly, and switching between mouse, keyboard, and touch input feels seamless, so everything runs efficiently—fast and smooth. I haven’t had it break down on me even once. The free version will work best for almost everyone unless you specifically need the Pro license, which is very reasonably priced. Best of all, AnyDesk’s performance doesn’t seem to be affected, no matter what device you’re using it on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AnyDesk?

There isnt much that i dislike, compared to the competitors, its very well designed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This free-of-cost, unlimited remote access service on the market, which I’ve used for more than five years, is very simple to use. Overall, the quality has been reliable and flexible for my needs. We haven’t done any integrations, though, so I’m not sure about that part. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
