Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"It's great that the total deployment can happen completely remotely.""We don't have problems with stability. Everything is good.""It's got a very easy-to-use interface.""Parallels Access gives me full access and control of the computer, and I can do anything I want remotely.""Parallels Access has flexible licensing policies, which is beneficial for customers who have intermittent usage or users who are on and off the system."

More Parallels Access Pros →

"Since the software is launched directly from the computer, not remotely delivered, it has minimized latency and response time.""It allows us to improve our security and prevent company files and data leaks.""We don't need to go to the physical office, and it only requires minimal supervision or assistance from our IT Team."

More Venn Software Pros →

Cons
"There is room for improvement in the pricing policy. The price point is pretty aggressive.""When you want to transfer a file from your iPad or remote device to the computer, the copy-and-paste feature doesn't always work.""The solution may not scale well for enterprises.""They could improve the reporting.""One challenge we do notice is that the application is limited to Windows servers only. If a customer has a Linux server, things get complicated. They should open it up a bit to be more compatible with different types of servers."

More Parallels Access Cons →

"We'd like to see a bit more done with the deployment capabilities.""Currently, Venn only uses two platforms/applications: Windows and Mac. It would be great if they could also add more platforms since some BYOD employees might be using an application other than Windows or Mac - for example, Linux.""It would be better to have the back end more efficient."
