Connect to your PC at home/office from anywhere in the world for FREE!

Posted on 20th of December 2009 by Ahmed Khusaam

Remote Desktop Sharing (connecting to your computer via internet) is becoming very common and being used more frequently for IT help, to connect office/home computer, education etc. There are many applications/services that give you the ability to remotely connect/share your computer. I am going to take a look at one software which is free (only for non-commercial use) and available for both mac and pc, which is TeamViewer.

TeamViewer

TeamViewer lets you connect or share your computer remotely through your internet connection. Once connected you can manipulate and make many different changes to the desktop you are connected. Connecting and Sharing is easy and takes less than a minute to setup.

Features

Many different features of TeamViewer include

  • One Package that does it all (Sharing and Connecting)
  • No required installation to connect to a shared computer
  • Remote file transfer
  • Works behind firewalls
  • High Security and Encryption (more information: http://www.teamviewer.com/products/security.aspx)

These and many more features are available in this application, but i think the most important and the thing that makes TeamViewer stand out from all the other applications of such use is its simplicity and ease of use. To use TeamViewer you dont require in-depth knowledge of computing, since no major complicated setup is required. Its just download ans start sharing.
