Remote Utilities - Viewer is a highly configurable and secure remote desktop software for IT professionals. You can view screens remotely, send keystrokes, control the mouse pointer, transfer files, and do any other operation just as if you were physically sitting in front of the remote PC. Try it Remote Utilities Now!

The Viewer is your single control center. Here you can manage your remote connections using one or several address books, start a remote session in different connection modes and run configuration tools, such as the MSI Configurator. Remote Utilities is the number one choice for IT pros looking for a cost-effective and practical remote-access solution.

Features and Highlights

Ultimate security
A strong default security level is provided out-of-the-box. The user can enable additional security features, like IP filtering or shared secret. See Security Overview for more information.

Stand-alone solution
For its core features, Remote Utilities doesn't require any web infrastructure. The program can work in a totally isolated network and/or VPN with limited or no Internet access. Some features, like the Internet-ID (NAT traversal) do require a relay server on the Web in which case the user can choose between servers or their own self-hosted server.

No web-based accounts
Unlike strictly web-based SaaS tools, Remote Utilities doesn't offer web accounts. This means that there is nothing to "hack" on a global scale because there's simply no single database where user access credentials (including logins and access passwords) would be stored.

Self-hosted server
While relay server infrastructure can be used for remote connection over the Internet, the user can choose to install a free self-hosted server. The server provides additional features not available with hosted service, namely automatic address book synchronization and centralized permissions management.

No unexpected or mandatory upgrades
We offer a simple and clear Upgrade Policy. There are no automatic upgrades or related charges — an upgrade is always up to the customer. Moreover, customers can upgrade to the next major version for free within one year since their purchase. This makes the question "Will I have to pay for an upgrade if you release the next major version in a few months since my purchase date?" no longer relevant."

Scalability
Remote Utilities is as big as you want it to be. You get an unlimited number of remote installations when you purchase the operator license, so you're free to install the program on as many remote machines as you need to conduct your business. You have the built-in MSI Configurator and Remote Install tools at your disposal in order to push-install the program across your network or use Active Directory group policies.

Configurability
Remote Utilities provides plenty of options to accommodate even the most demanding requirements. The MSI installer file is available right away — you can take advantage of the MSI Configurator tool and pre-configure your program installer before the deployment.

Remote Access:

Remote access over LAN or VPN
Establish a direct connection to a remote PC using its IP address or DNS name. You can also seamlessly deploy the program in an Active Directory network.

Remote access over the Internet
Use Internet-ID connection to bypass firewalls and NAT devices when connecting over the Internet. No complicated network configuration is necessary.

Unattended access
Deploy the Host module for 24/7 access to remote workstations and servers. The Host starts automatically as a system service.

Attended access
Provide spontaneous remote support over the Internet using the Agent module. No installation and administrative rights are required.

UAC support
User Access Control (UAC) prompts can be controlled remotely and are no longer an obstacle (using Host instead of Agent is required to override UAC).

RDP-over-ID
Use Remote Utilities as the transport to start an RDP session over the Internet when the remote PC is not accessible directly by an IP address.

Unlimited one-to-many sessions
Multitask by connecting to multiple remote PCs at once from the same machine.

Self-hosted server
Use the self-hosted server for remote connection, address book sync, and authorization.

Proxy server support
Configure Remote Utilities to connect through your company's proxy server.

Connect through Host
Use a single PC on your LAN as a gateway through which to connect to its peers on the same network.

Note: 30 days trial version or demo license with a 10 remote PCs limit.
