Lead Backend Engineer at Singhania QuestPlus5.0I've used Apache Guacamole for secure, agentless server access leveraging blockchain, valuing its customizable protocols and fast performance, though its documentation and UI need improvement; it's scalable, open-source, and helped us gain key clients and ROI.
Full Stack Engineer at Datawyse4.0I've used Apache Guacamole for over two years to provision and manage remote systems efficiently; it's open-source, easy to set up, and highly scalable, though occasional UI issues and minor technical hiccups keep it from being perfect.
Cybersecurity Engineer at a tech consulting company with 51-200 employees4.5I've used Apache Guacamole for five years as a cost-effective, customizable Citrix alternative, helping us retain budget-conscious clients by offering secure remote access, though it lacks some advanced features and could benefit from better-promoted security assurances.
CEO at Exaact Solutions4.5I’ve used Apache Guacamole for seven years for clientless remote access and recording; it’s easy to install, stable, and scalable for any size. Community documentation is decent. I’d like USB support, a native client, and better browser access.
Infrastructure Monitoring Specialist at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees5.0I used Apache Guacamole for three years and found it simple, free, and effective for remote access needs, though initial setup could be easier. Its web-based interface greatly improved team efficiency without requiring complex maintenance or licensing.
Cloud Engineer at CDAC4.5I use Apache Guacamole to efficiently manage virtual machines for educational institutions. It's easy to use and secure, but the GUI customization documentation could be more comprehensive. There's no detailed information on ROI or alternative solutions considered.
Founder and CTO at a tech company with 11-50 employees4.0I use Apache Guacamole as a gateway due to its free, open-source nature, having switched from Citrix. However, its USB redirection could be improved, and it should support FX protocol instead of just RDP.
