Overall Satisfaction with Apple Remote Desktop

We are an educational organization and use Apple Remote Desktop to monitor students and provide tech support.

Pros

  • Great for monitoring users on your network.
  • Easy tech support.
  • Good for sharing screens to a projector.

Cons

  • Screen refresh rate can be a bit slow, but this depends largely on your network
  • Enhances classroom efficiency
I have not used other applications--perfectly happy with Apple Remote Desktop.
Apple Remote Desktop is terrific for education.
