I’ve always been a TeamViewer person when it came to accessing my PCs remotely but after running into some issues recently I decided to look elsewhere. Stardesk has been amazing… I was blown away when I just realized that they let me create virtual monitors for my machines… This is a free software we’re talking about. I love the layout and the UI. It’s very moment and sleek. My favorite is the preview window of all computers that are open. It’s seriously such an incredibly well thought out app, it’s super easy it easy and has a lot of options for those who want them.

StarDesk is incredible for remotely accessing a windows PC from phone or laptop. It has very low latency and high image quality, and is also very stable when roaming between WiFi and cell service. I highly recommend StarDesk for on-the-go check-ins to your PC.
