JO John O. Staff Scientist Pharmaceuticals Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 12/3/2019 "Easy and reliable" 5/5 What do you like best about RealVNC? I use RealVNC to connect two home computers to two work computers so I can work from home easily when needed. One is a Mac, and one is Linux. The Mac support is very good, and I can view my laptop screen plus 2 connected monitors remotely, and it looks so similar I can barely tell it's remote. Linux support is almost as good, but full screen across two monitors doesn't work, so I manually position the window across both monitors each time I connect. What I like best is how easy it is to connect and how reliable the connection is. I've been using this setup for months and haven't had any problems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about RealVNC? The biggest disadvantage is that audio is not supported between the connected computers, so I can't take a WebEx call using my remote laptop, unless I call in using a phone instead of the remote computer's audio. A second disadvantage may be fixable with a configuration setting: when my Mac laptop goes into screensaver mode from lack of use, the connection is broken. It's easy to restart, so it's not a big problem, but is a minor annoyance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering RealVNC: RealVNC is much cheaper than TeamViewer or LogMeIn and supports Windows, Mac, and Linux. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is RealVNC solving and how is that benefiting you? I can access my work computers from home or while traveling. That has been very helpful because I sometimes need to do extra work in the evenings or on weekends. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

VNC makes it almost seamless to connect to my workstation. It is a lifesaver, enabling me to be productive in the times of COVID. One time, I accidentally put my workstation to sleep.

JG Joël G. Customer Service Manager Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 11/4/2019 "perfect integration" 4.5/5 What do you like best about RealVNC? the quality of the remote desktop. Works properly in my environment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about RealVNC? The integration with Windows defender and the firewall rules Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering RealVNC: VNC Connect a very good and stable product. VNC connect can be integrated easily in a big infrastructure to remote access to large number of computers. I use VNC for a while and always satisfy of the stability of product. Works in different platform you can use it in a mix of platform. thats a good point. The big difference between this product and others is the SSL support to encrypt the transmission of data. That's a very good point to keep the integrity of the security. The product can be used in different ways. VNC connect can be deployed to manage computers, upgrade software and systems. It can be used by each user to access to their computers across internet with a maximum security The only difficulty it's the integration with Windows Defender in Windows 10. A firewall rule must be implemented to open the autorisation to use VNC Connect with the remote computer. Once the implementation is ok, all works properly. The implementation of file transfer is a good option. I know that you have a lot of new services with the product but I didn't the occasion to use them. I think that the two most important things are : security and stability if i can resume the powerful of VNC Connect. Hope these comments helps. Joe Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I work in the semiconductor industry and we are able to control the master software from home or a different room outside the cleanroom, without going through the hassle of gowning in or going to the fab on the weekends. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about RealVNC? There is no way to see who is doing what, and sometimes when teams are fighting over control of the machine it gets quite hectic. It would be good for an admin to have control over who has viewing and who has control rights at the moment, instead of just a password and self-controlled view only vs control mode. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is RealVNC solving and how is that benefiting you? Too many users at once and not being able to have control. We have had to change the password to kick people out, but in consequence the hardcoded password to some softwares affected our system, and therefore we had to change our password back.
