RealVNC Connect Likes & Dislikes

Like

The ability to remote into our raspberry pi tablet setups and computers without having to physically be standing in front of the computer

Like

VNC is a defacto standard for remote control, so there is lots of input for support.

Like

1. MFA for Access from remotely 2. Very easy to deploy and use 3. mobile access and free version for personal use.

Dislike

Sometimes the UI is a bit clunky with some glitches. I would expect to see a few more features but works great overall

Securing the product can be challenging.

Dislike

1. A recording session would help a lot for Systems engineers during configurations and troubleshooting remotely. 2. It depends on good bandwidth. 3. Access logs tracing can still be improved.

    Jun 25, 2024
    We have been using RealVNC for many years for free. However, after upgrading to a licensed version, our experience in supporting internal customers and the efficiency of my support engineers have greatly improved.
