Ratings and Reviews
Great App
This is a great App for accessing your computer when you are away from home or the office. I just signed up month to month with a well known accounting program which is good, but not as good as my desktop version.
At the moment I am running both the online accounts package on the cloud, and my desktop version by using Parallels Access, I think the desktop version is winning, ok I need to run my desktop (a laptop) as a server, but that’s not a problem. I once ran an old Apricot for eight years without switching it off ever, anyway with what I save on monthly charges for the online version I will be able to buy a new laptop every year.
Excellent Remote Desktop App
I find the app indispensable, I use it to control computers at home and away. A yearly subscription to Parallels desktop for Mac includes free use of the Access App. I have used this app since it was first released and it has improved over time.
Alright
It’s ok.
Shame photo thumbnails are reduced to an icon when in Finder mode. Makes finding images a tedious process.
Find the various Parallels desktop applications confusing.
An app update appeared to remove all my computers which then needed re-establishing, which in turn meant being physically in front of the relevant machines.
The app had updated automatically. Luckily I wasn’t away from the office so was able to re-establish my machines on the app.
Once everything is up and running, the app works well not withstanding issues with internet connectivity. .
Moving photos (for example) when accessing via iPhone is frustrating in that dragging and dropping only gets you so far. The screen doesn’t move with you.
Navigating around is like playing that fairground game where you try and grab the prize with a crane but just when you think you’ve got it secure it drops. Infuriating!
I think the app does a relatively decent job given the difficulties interfacing iOS with the desktop, but I just feel it’s missing some obvious fixes.
