Which one is for you

Pick Iperius Remote if

  • Fits if you want free remote access for your own private computers
  • Works for small support teams that count connections, not seats

Look elsewhere if

  • Not for you if you use it for work on the free version, as it is non-commercial only
  • Watch out: prices are in euros and exclude VAT
  • Watch out: Pro pricing depends on a connection count that the page text doesn't show
  • Pricey if you want your own branding, as corporate rebranding is bought separately on Small and Medium
  • Watch out: the pages say some features may not be available on all platforms

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

How this page was made

  • The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
  • The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
  • Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
  • The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
