I've been a longtime user of Anydesk Paid (which I really like). It's easy to use, dependable, and gives me all the features I would want. I am not limited to the number of remote computers I can connect to. I use it a few times a month to give computer assistance to some of my elderly friends. My subscription is up soon, so I'm looking for a cheaper solution since the service I provide is free gratis so I get no return for its use and I do not use it often enough to warrant increase in its price.

I've been looking into Splashtop as a replacement, but it limits me to 10 computers that I can access which might be a problem. If anyone out there uses it, can you offer any advise as to it's effectiveness and ease of use?

Try using RealVNC. Its way better than all the other programs combined. It gives you a free 3 pc version then you will have to pay money.... :)

We were using GoToMyPC and switched to Splashtop for remoting into the office. I prefer GoToMyPC. The admin settings were less complicated. Also, my connection drops frequently with Splashtop. With Splashtop, I connect via my web browser so I don't have to install a client. With GoTo, I installed the client. I can't say if installing the Splashtop client will make the connection more stable. I wish we were still using GoTo.
