Ammyy Admin vs Supremo (2026): which should you pick?

Pick Ammyy Admin if

• Fits if you help family or friends on Windows and want a program that runs without installing
• Works for occasional personal support where the free licence's session limits don't matter

Look elsewhere if

• Skip it if you use a Mac, Linux or a phone, as only Windows is listed
• Not for you if you need commercial use for free, since the free licence is non-commercial
• Watch out: the newest build is from January 2019 and the news list ends that year, so it may not be kept up
• Watch out: the vendor's pages give 15 hours on one and 30 on another for ID connections
• Tight if you need more than a couple of sessions, as each paid licence runs two years and each machine needs one

Pick Supremo if

• Fits if you help family or friends now and then and don't use it all day
• Works for a one-person helper who wants a Windows or Mac tool

Look elsewhere if

• Tight if you use it for work: free is for non-professional or non-continuous use
• Pricey if you want the lowest price: €7.37 needs a 3-year term, and prices exclude VAT
• Skip it if you need several sessions at once, as Business adds them and extra connections are €39 each a year
• Watch out: the IT Security feature set is a separate add-on, and there's no Linux app

Ammyy Admin

• The newest build on the downloads page is version 3.8 from January 2019, and the news list ends in 2019.
• The buy page lists only Windows, and its feature page names Windows versions up to 8.
• The vendor's license pages state different monthly limits for ID connections (15 hours on one, 30 on another), so check before relying on a free or Starter license.
• Paid licenses last 2 years, and each computer in a commercial session needs one.

Supremo

• Prices are in euros, excluding VAT, and the cheapest figure needs a 3-year term.
• Solo allows one remote session at a time; more simultaneous sessions need Business or extra connections.
• The IT Security feature set is a separate add-on, and the vendor lists no Linux app.

Voice chat
