![]() Besides remote file transfer, it provides important controls that can get work done in some cases. In case you like to manage your family devices, CRD is a good option. However, the best one is TeamViewer as compared to others. The paid services provide extra capabilities such as maintaining various concurrent sessions, event logging, in-depth remote device information, much more. TeamViewer offers different pricing initiating at about $19/month. Hence, if you are deciding to use it for commercial purposes, you should opt for the paid version instead. The only issue is that you will get a pop-up after every session claiming it is a free version for non-commercial use. In case you exceed the limit, your account will be flagged.įor personal use, TeamViewer is totally free. ![]() The free TeamViewer account comes with an unsaid limit on the number of devices under an account. Also, I can’t able to find a limit to the number of PCs you can add to a single account. PricingĬhrome Remote Desktop (CRD) is totally free by nature and there is no paid version of it. Having said that, after you have started a screen-sharing session, the person has unlimited access to your files in both apps. It makes you aware that you are in a screen sharing session and I can’t find anything identical on CRD. Also, there is a dialog box under the right-hand side showing a screen sharing session. However, in TeamViewer when you are in the screen-sharing session, the desktop wallpaper change into black. Quite similarly, both apps need password authentication or user-id when starting a random connection. Hence, there are few chances of data being sniffed in the network. However, both these apps use AES/RSA to encrypt the connection. Security is another big concern in remote access because of the current scams. The thing is it needs you to install separate apps on smartphones for remote control and host. During the comparison, I didn’t find any restrictions on TeamViewer. Additionally, if you like to remote control a random laptop, you can’t use a mobile. The big disadvantage of CRD is that you can’t access your mobile through the desktop. If you sign in or register, you can then monitor your remote devices and take remote backup. In addition to that, TeamViewer provides annotation flexibility, file transfer, etc. Foremost, you’ll then get a chat interface that comes quite handy as you have to communicate with the client. Both apps provide you the choice to register or sign up for your devices under one account.Īlternatively, TeamViewer provides a complete bunch of features that can suffice the need of any user. Notable FeaturesĬRD is a minimal app and it doesn’t provide any extra features worth mentioning. TeamViewer also follows the same process but I found the TeamViewer app needs a few attempts before it can maintain a connection. Random access on CRD works only between 2 Desktops or Laptops. Post that, input your PIN for connection authentication and you are good to go. To maintain a remote session through a mobile, all you need to do is to log in using the same Google ID on both devices. For iOS or Android, you will have to install the mobile app. In case, you like to remotely access a device, just set up the Chrome Remote Desktop web app. Apps Set upĬhrome Remote Desktop is extremely easy to set up. The application is available for a big number of platforms such as ChromeOS, Linux, Raspberry Pi, macOS, etc. If you like to host remote access, you should install the TeamViewer standalone app. On niche platforms such as Linux or Raspberry Pi, you can also use Chrome Remote Desktop through the Chromium browser.Īlternatively, TeamViewerrpvides a web and a standalone app. But when Google is shutting down Chrome apps, CRD is the only web app in the future. However, if you like to host remote access, you should install or download the CRD host app. Hence, it doesn’t need any extra installation and is more efficient to use. To start with, CRD stands for Chrome Remote Desktop and it is a web app. When we talk about cross-platform compatibility, then Chrome Remote Desktop or TeamViewer have a huge presence. 1 Comparison: Chrome Remote Desktop VS TeamViewerĬomparison: Chrome Remote Desktop VS TeamViewer. ![]()
