"Latency Issues Solved"
5/5
What do you like best about Parsec?

The latency is fantastic. Best example is an artist kept getting feedback on a shot he was tracking; as soon as he started using Parsec, he was finally able to see what they were complaining about.

The support from Parsec has been amazing when troubleshooting. They are willing to be in a video call, spend time understanding your configuration, and then helping you troubleshoot. All environments are different, and they are willing to spend the time to make Parsec work best based on your circumstances Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Parsec?

Remembering your preferences for monitor count, monitor location and and resolution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"One of the lowest latency remote desktop solution around"
5/5
What do you like best about Parsec?

Super low latency, it's almost like you are physically at the computer.

Wacom tablet support.

Dual Screen support.

Great multi-team management console. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Parsec?

Will not work if the client's machine is using an ISP that uses a CG-NAT. Some ISPs will take you off a CG-NAT if you call up and ask. Some pretend they don't use one and the only thing to do is change ISP's. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"I don't use the program but our CAD designers like it for its' speed designing in 3D."
4.5/5
What do you like best about Parsec?

Connects easily to a computer that has been set up and verified. No dual authentication is needed once it is set up correctly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Parsec?

It can be difficult to get everything set up for the first time. A computer must be joined to a team with a long key and then verified. Also using the virtual display driver is a nice feature but needs additional work to install. Parsec support did work with me to create an deployment package for the certificate needed.

"Very easy to use cross platform. They provide updates and support has been responsive."
5/5
What do you like best about Parsec?

No need for VPN setup and the users I support have had an easier time using Parsec over VPN and RDP. It works well with applications like CAD and Revit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Parsec?

There are still some bugs I'm experiencing on MAC OS, but they do not prevent me from using it effectively and support is following the issue closely. RPi 4 / dual monitor support would be amazing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Never seen a better remote desktop application with a focus on co-op gaming. No latency with Parsec, their technology to stabilised FPS is amazing and can be seamlessly connect many devices. Absolute genuis. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Parsec?

Parsec can give freedom for the host to set a watermark so that all connected users can be better informed, all the more it will give streamers a better way to attract their audience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Remote Connectivity for M&E"
5/5
What do you like best about Parsec?

If I'm answering from an IT Admin perspective, it starts with the ease of installation and administration. But when you really get down to where the rubber meets the road, it just works!! And it works reliably and consistently day in and day out. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Parsec?

I would like to see better reporting capabilities. You can never have enough information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Amazingly performant, incredibly safe"
5/5
What do you like best about Parsec?

For me, the best feature in Parsec --that differentiates it from the competition-- is the fact that you don't need to leave a door open in your firewall to receive incoming connections, you just need to have an outbound connection to a Parsec server. That makes Parsec incredibly safe, and a deciding factor for our company to go with Parsec. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Parsec?

It's not a problem with Parsec per se, but it relies on UPnP for port-forwarding, and AWS' NAT Gateway does not support it, unfortunately. So if you intend to keep your host in a private subnet, you need to maintain a NAT instance. Or you could place your host in a public subnet, with all inbound ports closed in the security group.

"Why was Parsec not introduced to me first"

What do you like best about Parsec?

I am just loving Parsec for its remote capabilities. No other cloud connect software could give me the desired fps and resources as Parsec has. Truly exceptional experience while working with Parsec on my remote server. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Parsec?

The latest version of parsec has already removed the difficulties previously faced such as minor bug in co-op module while trying to connect from different networks. Awesome product overall. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
