Overall Satisfaction with Splashtop

I use it to access my home office, from utilizing the final reporting software to spreadsheets or even email. Sometimes I have to use my phone as a hot spot for my WiFi, and it works great. I am a very small company and use it mainly for futures trading from my lap top to my trading computer. I find it to be very stable. I need to learn if I can use 2 mobile monitors to utilize splashtop more efficiently.

Pros

  • Accessing a remote desktop.
  • Teaching or giving a powerpoint presentation.
  • I even day trade with it when times allow. I log into my trading computer.

Cons

  • In the app for the phone, it would be nice if there was a next screen button instead of having to select the monitor every time. The desktop has that flexibility.
  • Very positive impact. Makes my life so much easier on computer work or trading.
Easy but I have only had one issue, and it was cleared up immediately.
It absolutely meets my needs, although I do not use 2-factor authentication. I find the standard security to satisfy my security needs. 2 factor authentication is a pain and I use it enough elsewhere on other programs.
I was able to learn the program in one day and have loved it ever since. I have not tried to move beyond my simple needs. I should look into more functionality.
Yes - Team Viewer is a too expensive remote desktop in Chrome. It worked well but was a bit laborious. Splash top in my opinion is way better than team viewer
