Teamviewer Alternative?

[Phil Buchanan]

Team viewer or LogMeIn is good for connecting to customer computers for the occasional service but for connecting to equipment on a permanent or semipermanent basis I would use hamachi or zero tier or neo router and you can connect to your plc just like you are on the local LAN because logically you are. For pc support on these solutions just use VNC or built in RDP.

so would you recommend using any of the above mentioned routers versus a solution such as E W O N or Tosibox?

You can use team viwer even for lan connection by enabling in options

No this simply means if you are on the LAN connecting to a machine on the LAN the traffic won't go out to the internet and come back it will route across a local path on the LAN. Its not a SDN like the titles I mentioned.

Yes.. This also enables you to use TeamViewer across your internal LAN... from one computer to another.
As I understand it is free to use on an Internal LAN.

This is quite a cute package and there is a free version that allows upto 10 remote computers. It seems quick and robust and multiple users can access simultaneously. I'd be interersted to hear thoughts and whether others had tried this?
