Chrome Remote Desktop is a very functional and fast RDP (Remote Desktop Protocol). A major plus point for us was that all of our clients already knew the Chrome name, so when we needed them to install the RDP, they felt safer knowing it from the same place as their browser.

Better suited to personal use. We found that it doesn't offer enough features compared to AnyDesk. Such as managed users & customization & branding. One of the reasons we switched to TeamViewer. Although TeamViewer's prices led us elsewhere Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It is a browser-based remote screen sharing software. It helps me seamlessly shift from my work to resource sharing without installing any specific software that is not compatible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is very easy to setup. Just download the desktop installer and click through it. It is also easy to use, either via Chrome web browser, or "Chrome Remote Desktop" app via a phone or a tablet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The reliability is not good enough. On a bad workday, it would disconnect several times. And sometimes reconnecting does not work either. You would have to restart the web browser or the app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Chrome Remote Desktop is not only free to use, it's incredibly simple to set up. All you have to do is install the plugin on the target computer and set a PIN for it. Accessing it from anywhere else is as simple as logging into your email and clicking the link. It even supports multi-monitor setups! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Chrome Remote Desktop doesn't seem to provide a typical one-monitor-at-a-time setup for multi-monitor setups like other remote services provide. By that I mean, you can set it to show one monitor only or all of them at once, but never have it where moving from one monitor to the next with the mouse automatically switches which monitor you're looking at. It makes it so you have to choose between having all monitor displays squashed together and barely readable, or constantly clicking the sidebar menu to swap displays back and forth.
