Great !
Thank you for sharing this with us.
Though, I would like to add one more precious application named Lepide remote admin tool which is available free and give control of any computer spread across multiple domains.
It provides complete access to control as many endpoints as you require through a centralized platform. You can access Windows services on the remote computer and send wake up request to unattended computers.

There are several other “free” apps… but many come w/ different catches… ie., free to use for up to so many computers.

Splashtop Personal Remote Desktop is free for personal use (inside same network)… it’s been used by over 20 million consumers to remote access from their iPad, iPhone, Android, Windows, MAC, Chromebook and various devices to their computers inside homes.

Splashtop On-Demand Support (SOS) is also free for personal use. Commercial license is very cost effective at $100 per technician per year with multiple concurrent access allowed… as it’s so cost effective, over 30k+ MSPs have adopted Splashtop Remote Support and SOS solution.

As per the Website of Spashtop:

" Use Splashtop Personal for free* on the local network to access your home computer"

Of course, it is a “Free Remote Desktop Connection Software” but IMHO not really what an admin is looking for in the context of this thread!?

several apps listed in the “Top 10” are only free for “personal” use… ie., Teamviewer, Anydesk, waydknow, etc. Similarly, Splashtop Personal is free for personal use, which is for remote accessing home computers, not office computers… I guess our definition is that office computer is considered commercial use.

Splashtop On-Demand Support is also free for non-commercial use…
