Alternatives and pricing
Comparing remote access tools without the marketing
TeamViewer and AnyDesk are the two best-known remote access products, and most comparisons of them are undated tables written by someone who resells one of them. These guides give you the method instead: the requirements that actually decide the outcome, how licensing meters differ, how to test session quality fairly, and how to model twelve months of cost from each vendor's own current pricing page. We do not publish competitor prices or feature lists here, because packaging in this market changes several times a year and any figure would be stale.

Free alternatives, honestly
An honest account of free remote access options, including built-in operating system tools and personal tiers of commercial products: what they genuinely cover, the five limits that end up costing money, and the point at which a licence is cheaper than the workaround.
How we write these
No claims about a named rival's features, limits or prices, because those move and we would get them wrong. Instead: the category-level facts, the questions worth putting to every candidate, and a plain statement of where 247connect fits and where a broader RMM or PSA suite is the better purchase.
