This was great works very well and the price is good for multiple computers


Constantly reconnects

If you have a limited internet connection this app doesn’t work. Appears to have a great deal of network overhead. If it does connect the screens will go so blurry that it cant be read. I also experienced erratic keystrokes where certain keys stopped responding on the remote pc.


Truly The Best !

Pacific101

I have been involved in PC development, programming, repair, server management, and contracted technical support, for nearing three decades. Remote PC is in my experience, hands down the most comprehensive and thoughtful system of its kind at present. I stumbled into it when the annual price had been slashed for the first year. I’ll gladly renew at the full subscription price when my renewal comes due.


Works, many daily bugs and frustrations since using it

Quantum Chris

They say you get what you pay for. Well, I think other ones work well that can be inexpensive. This budget remote access app works for light duty stuff usually. Yet it crashes often, graphics bugs, disconnects, can’t connect to a machine with a code on iOS and have to use a computer, can’t check for updates manually, poor interface, limited functionality and features, seems to conflict with other apps on windows so things hang at times, if it disconnects, the windows machine loses access to its printers, oh and more I’m sure. I’m going to another solution and pay more. Since I had to set everyone up to work remotely I’ve had waaaay more daily calls on issues that I didn’t have before, all related to RemotePC. It isn’t for mainstream use, a little home and side use it’s ok. Yet TeamViewer is free for home use, and more stable and robust. Be warned, try different apps. They used to offer a free one user account, and they, without notice or anything, just cut it off and left everyone hanging. Poor customer service. And when you look at their response to others, they show they don’t even read or care about customers or feedback. Go elsewhere for a more peaceful experience. UPDATE Developer response. Tried tech support. They didn’t know how to fix, back and forth and don’t have time. I already moved on to a stable product, can’t wait


Poor connections

imburnsey

More times than not the connection is not good. When trying to navigate a program such as word, you may thing you typed a sentence and look up only to see nothing happen. So you begin again only to find it lagged so much that now you have garble. When trying to use QuickBooks, often it is unusable. Tech support only tells you that the problem is that you’re not on the newest version. Does that mean they know they built it with problems? Updating has never solved the issues. It’s cheap and sometimes works well. While in Tech chat support , expect to be on hold for extended periods of time.

Go to health

Very undependable. Unable to access computers consistently. Would not recommend.


Paid for a whole year

Jack7P7

Just now after 6 months I am no longer receiving sound on the phone when accessing my pc remotely. I use this app to check on my daughters activity’s and it’s not a huge issue but it’s always let me hear what she’s watching on YouTube or Netflix or any sound coming from the pc, but just last week I no longer hear anything and only have visual


Broken

Selfdestruct264

I have had continued issues connecting to both a Server 2012R2 box (black screens every time I connect with no apparent recourse to get the connection working. Occasionally it will work, but most often nothing but a white mouse cursor on a black background) and a Windows 10 VM (gives me a desktop background, but Ctrl-AltxDel also doesn’t do anything and I cannot login.) Still crashing after my initial review. The session will hang and there is no way to use the app. Worthless until these bugs are fixed.


Works great

TrentVano

I don’t really have any complaints about this. It’s basically your computer on your mobile phone. It’s easy to use, reliable and doesn’t have an unreasonable amount of lag, only a little bit. It works great even just using your mobile data. Of course you can connect from computer to computer also, but I like the phone to laptop. I run stock market auto trades , so it’s nice to be able to check on what’s happening straight from my cell phone to the laptop anywhere I want, I’ve even done it while out camping before. This product is only 3.6 stars right now, it definitely deserves more than that.


A Wonderful Dream, but just that. A Dream.

Terrible App Victim

This would be incredibly useful if it worked. Unfortunately, this app is the single most disappointing setback in modern technology since the Challenger explosion. After testing it on multiple devices and on multiple networks, I was unable to stay connected to my PC at home for more than a few minutes without it being interrupted and throwing me into a blue screen that either lasts until I force quit the app or until it returns me to the sad, frozen image of my PC’s desktop; taunting me with a cursor able to glide gently across the icons I need to click, but unable to actually click. Using remote PC is like watching It’s a Wonderful life, except instead of seeing what life would be like if I didn’t exist, I see all the wonderful things I could be clicking if I were at home. My documents and my applications are just out of reach; I am a ghost sitting in my computer room, trying futilely to click and click, and I cry as my connection to my PC slips away before my very eyes. If this were the Titanic, I would be Rose, floating on my driftwood, and my desktop would be Jack, sinking and freezing to death right before me. If you value your time, your money, and your dignity, I strongly recommend you avoid downloading Remote PC or spending money on their service.
