What do you like best about Apple Remote Desktop?

The best part about it is that it is just there. There is no need to explain to my coworkers that you need to install this application or go through a rigorous regime of steps. It is linked with the Apple ID, and I can connect with other Mac machines on a single request, and the other person has to accept or reject it. If you have to manage multiple systems from a centralized point of your business regularly, I suggest switching to Apple Remote. It is very easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Apple Remote Desktop?

The only downside I have seen with Apple Remote Desktop is that you need a very good internet connection on both ends; when other apps like AnyDesk can work on low speeds like 5-10mbps, ARD requires a minimum of 30-40mbps. It would be good if this can be fixed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Apple Remote Desktop solving and how is that benefiting you?

Installing updates, fixing issues, and configuring systems remotely is a breeze. Going to every system and performing the same steps is not an easy task, it takes more time and more efforts but remotely connecting to devices and troubleshooting problems in real time is pure magic. It even helps cut down on energy costs by powering down idle machines. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
