Useful Software while on the road

While on the move on road, in a train or on a plane you can access your PC remotely using these software. Find out more here.

We all know of the buzz created by PC Remote Access technology and how useful this wonderful tech is. But often times we end up in situations that are ironical to the current tech age. With all the solutions and availability of great deal of remote access software floating around why do we find ourselves frustrated when on the move? Sure your Smartphone or laptop can be helpful using the various free apps and tools available, but a Smartphone can’t handle remote multitasking on your pc at home. And obviously most free tools have their limitations, some restrict usage, some have network issues or some simply offer limited features such as remote back up or remote file sharing.

In order to do more and get the best out of remote access technology, you need to get the best software in town. Don’t worry though not all Remote Desktop Software is paid to use, though the paid to use software usually have better options. The most important toolkit you will need is the Microsoft TechNet, especially if you are a tech or IT guy. This subscription provides you access to some of the most powerful software in the industry, but of course this comes at a price.

You can use TechNet tools to set up servers and virtual access tools on your old or current PC and feel the power of real ‘remote access technology’. However it is not always convenient for everyone and neither is using the various paid solutions to host your files on cloud servers. But if it was a matter of accessing your PC or laptop or a VPN then obviously you need a backend solution, mostly in the form of powerful or lite software that acts as a portal. There are many free solutions available in the market such as Windows Live Mesh or Hamachi (functions as a VPN client mostly) that could be used for everyday tasks.

Obviously you will need a strong network while on the move and a good Wi-Fi is hard to come by on the road but might not be the case while on a plane or a train (even a cruise). A reliable 3G cellular network will also be able to do the trick. Most remote software has FTP utilities while some give you total control over another PC such as Team Viewer. Remote Control Software is built for specific purposes & the best tool you could find will define your needs. Other then these free and paid solutions there are many powerful tools in the market and new ones are around the corner, the choice is yours of course. What will it be free remote tools or paid full power suites? It essentially depends on your needs with regards to reliability and functionality.
