AweSun vs Splashtop (2026): which should you pick?

Pick AweSun if

• Fits if you want to control a PC from a phone and pay per device
• Works for people who stream games from a remote PC and want the Game plan

Look elsewhere if

• Skip it if you need Linux or a browser version, as neither is listed
• Watch out: the free plan's limits aren't on the pricing page
• Tight if you manage many devices, as Pro and Game are priced per device per year
• Watch out: the English pages are marked as AI-translated from the original, so details may not match

Pick Splashtop if

• Fits if you want your home PC from anywhere for $23.99 a year
• Works for help desks that support people by session code at $22 per concurrent technician

Look elsewhere if

• Skip it if you hoped the free app would reach your PC from outside the house, as it's home Wi-Fi only
• Not for you if you work from home and want it free, as that counts as commercial use
• Pricey if you need single sign-on, the APIs or on-premises, which sit on an Enterprise plan quoted by sales
• Watch out: business plans are shown on annual billing only, the trial's length isn't stated, and there's no web app
• Tight if SOS outgrows its cap, as each license covers 10 or 300 managed computers, up to 1,200
