AnyViewer vs RemotePC (2026): which should you pick?

Pick AnyViewer if

• Fits if you need unattended access to a few of your own computers for free
• Works for one person who wants phone-to-PC control

Look elsewhere if

• Tight if you need more than 2 simultaneous sessions or files over 100 MB on the free plan
• Skip it if you use Linux, as no Linux client is listed
• Watch out: privacy mode, high-speed file transfer and mobile device remote control need a paid plan
• Watch out: prices are for yearly billing, and Professional's 3- and 6-year terms renew at the yearly rate

Pick RemotePC if

• Fits if you need one office or home computer always reachable, at $2.46 a month on renewal
• Works for small teams with a fixed set of up to 50 computers on Team

Look elsewhere if

• Skip it if you want a free plan, as there's only a 7-day trial
• Pricey if you keep adding computers, since each one over the plan's cap is $20 a year
• Not for you if you budget on the first-year price, as normal charges apply at renewal
• Watch out: reaching computers over RDP is an add-on at $20 per computer a year
• Tight if you need a second user, as Pro covers one, so adding people means Team at $24.96 a month or more
