Remote computer control is a connection from one PC to another via a local or Internet network and control of the device at a distance from several meters to several thousand kilometers. This software is used primarily by programmers to correct errors made by employees of various companies when working with programs.
However, you can use programs that provide remote access for non-corporate purposes. After all, situations often arise when you need to help parents or simply inexperienced friends figure out some of the nuances of how a computer works, but doing this over the phone can be very problematic. This is where a computer control program comes to the rescue. You can connect through a remote computer and do everything necessary, clearly showing what to do next time.
Programs for remote control of computers on a PC
There are many programs that allow remote access. Despite the fact that they all perform the same functions, the software has very significant differences. Of course, it is unlikely that it will be possible to cover all the programs, because new products appear every now and then, and those that could not win the trust of users disappear. Therefore, below we will present the rating of programs for remote control computer. The top is compiled according to user opinions, i.e. based on the number of downloads of a particular product.
The top programs for remote computer control via a PC are represented by the following developments:
- TeamViewer.
- Radmin.
- UltraVNC.
- Splashtop.
- Supreme.
TeamViewer
TeamViewer is one of the most popular programs among users. The slogan of this product sounds like “All in one!” The program is easy to use and completely free for non-commercial use.
One of the advantages of TeamViewer is that the product does not have to be downloaded and installed on a PC; the program is available for use online. For those who decide to download the program to their computer, downloading and installing the program will also not cause difficulties and will not take much time.
After launching the program, it will display a window with the computer ID and password for the possibility of remote connection to it, and a second window that allows you to connect to other PCs by entering their data. This software is used as a program for managing and monitoring a remote computer.
The advantages of the development include:
- several operating modes (remote connection, demonstration, file transfer and chat);
- free use for personal purposes;
- Possibility of round-the-clock access to a remote computer;
- high speed;
- simple and intuitive interface;
- the ability to install utilities to expand functionality.
The program also has disadvantages: the program does not always cope with long sessions and is not suitable for administering several computers. To correct these shortcomings you will have to buy additional modules. True, when used for personal purposes, such software shortcomings are hardly noticeable.
In general, the software is great for private use and short-term sessions, but will not satisfy all the needs of programmers who administer entire computer networks.
Radmin
Radmin is a program for remote computer management, which was at the peak of popularity ten years ago. But despite the decline in popularity, the software still occupies a certain place in the market and remains one of the best in this field. The development is paid, but the developers provide the opportunity to take advantage of a 30-day trial period.
The program itself consists of two parts: Server and Viewer. Server runs on the computer to which the connection is made, and Viewer - on the one from which it will originate. You can download the program from the developers’ website in full or in parts; there is also an online version of Viewer. There is also Radmin Server 3.5 NTI - a program for remote hidden computer management.
Unlike TeamViewer, Radmin does a great job of managing a large computer network, and is therefore perfect for a company's IT department. Also, the advantages of the program include a high level of security, the presence of chat (text and voice), prompt search and troubleshooting on the PC. There is also a minus: the development is quite complex, so only an experienced user can cope with it.
As a result, Radmin is the exact opposite of TeamViewer. The product is great for IT departments of companies with branches in different cities, but is not entirely convenient for use by individuals.
UltraVNC
According to users, UltraVNC is the most intelligent program for remote computer control among free developments. Just like Radmin, this software is divided into two parts (UltraVNC Viewer and VNC server), respectively, for the computer from which they are connecting, and for the one to which they are connecting. There is also a VNC client that combines both parts.
The UltraVNC program is one of the most secure among those listed. The development is very convenient and easy to understand when creating easy connection. There is also advanced functionality that will require high level knowledge to use.
In general, the program is suitable for any type of user. Beginners who just understand the basics of setting up remote access will be able to easily connect to another computer using the UltraVNC program, and professionals, with a little digging, will be able to find the widest range of functions among all the programs presented in the top.
Splashtop
Splashtop is the newest of the programs presented, but it has already become one of the most popular. According to developer statistics, the program has already been installed by more than 15 million users around the world.
What is the reason for such popularity? Splashtop- progressive application, which allows the user not only to configure the computer remotely, but also to use absolutely all of its functions (play games, watch movies, use applications, etc.).
As for the interface, Splashtop is very simple and easy to use. The software also boasts high data transfer speeds. It is possible to administer a computer network, although only up to five devices. Splashtop is suitable for any devices and operating systems.
The development has only one big disadvantage. This is not a program for remotely controlling a computer via the Internet; access is only possible through a local network.
Supreme
Supremo is a great copy of TeamViewer with a little bit of Radmin and completely free access. In this development, almost everything, from design to settings, is borrowed from TeamViewer. The only significant difference is the need to allow the connection on both sides, that is, the computer to which they are connecting must give consent (by clicking the button and “Start”), otherwise the session will end. The Supremo program is one of the simplest and most understandable on the Internet, in addition, it has very effective protection.
Just like Radmin, Supremo is great for working with large computer networks. However, unlike Radmin, it does not require complex settings when connecting, which makes it suitable not only for administration, but also for one-time use.
There is only one significant drawback - the software only works with Windows. Any other operating system is incompatible with development.
To summarize, we can say that Supremo is the best program for remote computer control. The software has its drawbacks, but they will be noticeable only to the most experienced users who need the most complex remote connection functions.
Programs for remote control of computers on Android
Today, you can set up a remote connection to a computer not only from another PC, but also from a phone or tablet to Android system. And vice versa, there is a program for remote control of Android from a computer. Of course, the choice of software here is not so great due to the novelty of the function itself. There are only three programs for remotely controlling a computer via Android.
Logmein
Logmein is a powerful application with a wide range of functions that allows you to access not only your computer desktop, but also file system. The program for remote control of computers has a simple, intuitive interface, even despite the lack of Russian translation. The data transfer speed is very high for a mobile application.
The disadvantages of the application include the slow loading of the interface and the need to install a client on a PC to connect remotely (the client for the computer has been translated into Russian). Another disadvantage is that the program is paid, but it is possible to use a trial period of 14 days.
Parallels Access
Another app with a two-week free trial is Parallels Access. Among its main advantages are:
- simple and really beautiful interface;
- a huge number of different functions;
- high speed (both work and transmission);
- easy connection;
- built-in file manager.
It was not possible to identify any significant disadvantages of the application. The only thing that can scare you off is the payment, but it is also very acceptable here.
Chrome Remote Desktop
Chrome Remote Desktop is a very simple application for setting up remote access. Even a beginner can figure out the setup.
The set of functions here is very meager. The graphics in the application leave much to be desired, but Google's creation boasts the fastest connection speed of any application. To work, in addition to the application itself, you will need Google browser Chrome.
In general, the development cannot be called very good. The emphasis here is on speed and simplicity, and the software definitely copes with this. The Android app is free.
Security when working with remote access
Remote access is very useful feature, but it can also harm the device, so if you have a program on your PC for remote control of computers, you should follow the safety rules.
Firstly, a good antivirus with latest updates. You should not accept unknown or potentially unsafe files.
Secondly, do not forget that many of the presented applications allow you to connect to your computer without permission. So you shouldn't leave the app running offline if you're not currently using it. Be sure to disable the activation feature when loading Windows.
If the program is set to block unauthorized connections, you should not allow connections to unknown users.
Good afternoon
In today's article I would like to focus on remote control of a computer running Windows 7, 8, 8.1. In general, such a task can arise in a variety of circumstances: for example, helping relatives or friends set up a computer if they do not understand it well; organize in a company (enterprise, department) remote assistance, so that you can quickly solve user problems or simply monitor them (so that you don’t play or go through “contacts” in working hours) etc.
You can remotely control your computer with dozens of programs (or maybe even hundreds, such programs appear like “mushrooms after the rain”). In this article we will focus on some of the best. And so, let's begin...
Team Viewer
This is one of the best programs for remote PC control. Moreover, it has a number of advantages in relation to similar programs:
It is free for non-commercial use;
Allows you to share files;
Has a high degree of protection;
The computer will be controlled as if you were sitting at it!
When installing a program, you can specify what you will do with it: install it to control this computer, or control it and allow it to connect. It is also necessary to indicate what use of the program will be: commercial/non-commercial.
Once Team Viewer is installed and launched, you can get started.
To connect to another computer need to:
Install and run the utilities on both computers;
Enter the ID of the computer you want to connect to (usually 9 digits);
Then enter the access password (4 digits).
If the data is entered correctly, you will see the “desktop” remote computer. Now you can work with it as if it were your “desktop”.
The Team Viewer program window is the desktop of the remote PC.
R admin
One of the best computer administration programs in local network and to provide assistance and support to users of this network. The program is paid, but there is a trial period of 30 days. At this time, by the way, the program works without restrictions in any functions.
The principle of operation is similar to Team Viewer. The Radmin program consists of two modules:
Radmin Viewer - free module, with which you can manage computers on which the server version of the module is installed (see below);
Radmin Server is a paid module that is installed on the PC that will be managed.
A mmyy Admin
Relatively new program(but about 40,0000 people around the world have already become familiar with it and started using it) for remote control of computers.
Main advantages:
Free for non-commercial use;
Easy setup and use even for novice users;
High degree of security of transmitted data;
Compatible with all popular operating systems Windows XP, 7, 8;
Works with installed Firewall, via proxy.
Window for connecting to a remote computer. Ammyy Admin
RMS - remote access
A good and free program (for non-commercial use) for remote computer administration. Even novice PC users can use it.
Main advantages:
Firewalls, NAT, firewalls will no longer prevent you from connecting to your PC;
High speed of the program;
There is a version for Android (now you can control your computer from any phone).
A eroAdmin
Website.
Programs for controlling another computer allow you to solve tasks of paramount importance without direct access to the device. Today, such products are common not only among professionals, but are also used by ordinary users. Read the article about the best applications for remote administration.
Supremo Remote Desktop
The main advantage of Supremo Remote Desktop is its portability. That is, for this tool to function, it must be installed. This decision developed only for operating systems of the Windows family. Another undeniable advantage is that it is free. This program for controlling another computer is available for download on the developer’s website and can be obtained at any time.
Before starting remote administration, you should run the utility on both PCs. Traditionally, such tools have two operating modes: host and client. The first option does not require any complex actions from the user. You just need to click on Start. The Your credentials column contains two fields: ID and password. It needs to be handed over to the operator, who will connect to the PC. Each session generates new values in these fields.
Also in the main window of this program for controlling another computer via the Internet there is an item called Ask authorization. If you check this box, the remote administrator will not be able to connect to the server PC without the end user's consent. It is worth enabling this function if you want to know at what exact moment the operator connected.
To manage a remote machine, you must enter the host ID in the field under Your Partner. Servers can be added to the address book so that in the future you can connect to your PC without entering an ID.
Another useful feature of the program is file manager. With its help, you can both transfer documents to the host and download them from it.
Anyplace Control
This program for managing another computer, unlike Supremo, allows you not only to administer a remote machine, but also to perform monitoring. In this case, the window will display what is happening on the screen of the remote PC.
The undoubted advantages of this utility include the ability to simultaneously work with several computers at once. Just one click and a reboot or shutdown command will be sent to several machines.
Not so necessary, but quite interesting feature- shared buffer. After copying a document on a remote PC, you can paste it on a client PC, and vice versa. This feature has also been implemented for text and graphic elements. Using the built-in Anyplace Control module, you can send a message to the administered machine.
Connection methods
Anyplace Control offers three possible options connections:
- Connection by IP address. Classic way. A program for controlling another computer over a local network works without intermediaries and connects directly to the server.
- Account connection. Best suited for regularly administering the same PCs. This can only be done after registering on the official website. The main advantage of this approach is the ability to remotely control the machine via the Internet, even without a static IP address.
- ID connection. Best suited for solving urgent matters. The user is given an ID number and password, which he must transfer to the operator. The administrator, by selecting “Connection by ID” in the menu and entering the data, will gain access to the remote PC.
TeamViewer
Not a single review describing programs for controlling another computer neglects TeamViewer. In fact, this tool is the most popular and it is completely free for home use. The download link is located on the official website of the developer. One of the main features of the application is the ability to install it on mobile OS: iOS and Android. “Desktop” operating systems were not left out either. The QuickSupport tool deserves special mention. This small program does not require installation to run and is the most in the best possible way suitable for urgent tasks.
IN full version The application is provided to the user simultaneously with both client and server parts. The interface is simple and clear - it consists of a single window, divided into tabs: “Remote control” and “Conference”.
Remote administration
Like many programs for controlling another computer, TeamViewer provides the user with a password and a generated ID, by which the PC is identified on the Internet. The operator, knowing them, can easily connect to the machine. The utility provides several connection options:
- Control. Implemented specifically for complete interception of control. It should be noted that they are not blocked on the remote PC. In the viewing window you can change the resolution, enable full screen mode, switch the scale or active monitor.
- Like other programs for controlling another computer over a network, TeamViewer provides everything standard tools: copying, creating folders, renaming documents.
- VPN. When you select this mode, a private virtual local network will be organized between computers. Allows you to access shared devices or directories.
Conferences
Using this tab, you can create a quick conference or connect to an existing one. Free programs for controlling another computer rarely have similar functionality. It is worth mentioning that the application provides voice and video communication, the ability to share the PC screen and record everything that happens in an AVI container. All traffic, both incoming and outgoing, is encrypted by the utility during operation.
It is very important to choose a program high quality which suits you best.
For example, certain programs can work over the network, while others also function via the Internet - this also needs to be taken into account.
The type of license is very important: paid or free.
To understand which program to choose, the table below presents programs with basic characteristics to users.
| Program name | Number of connections in the free version | File access | Smartphone access | Russian language |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| TeamViewer | 1 | Yes | Yes | Yes |

Talking about all the utilities that provide remote access, it is impossible to ignore the most relevant of them -.
It can be downloaded from the manufacturer's website, after which the program is installed or launched without installation.
Even an amateur can cope with this. As soon as the startup occurs, a window will appear on the screen in which the ID assigned to the computer will be indicated, as well as the password.
To connect to a PC on an administrative device, you must specify the identifier in the “ Manage your computer».
- The program will be free only for non-commercial use; to add it to corporate devices, you will initially have to pay. Sometimes, after a few minutes of work, the operator disconnects from the client at automatic mode, and the application independently analyzes the work and will be able to decide that it is being used for commercial purposes.
- To set up permanent access, you will have to purchase an additional tool. The price of the application is high.
TeamViwer is perfect for occasional and short-term user support; however, the utility is not suitable for administering networks with a huge number of devices.
AeroAdmin
The presented program is also ranked as the leader in the list of utilities for remote access. The first connection time will be less than 20 seconds.
When sending an image, the program itself can analyze the channel capacity, select best quality pictures.
Data encryption is performed using the RSA-AES algorithm.
As in most of the solutions presented, the free version of this program makes it possible to establish a connection with only a single computer.

The free version is available for no more than 15 hours per month in session mode.
For a large number of ordinary users, this limitation will not seem particularly inconvenient.
The price for a license will depend on the number of places to work and starts from 1,200 rubles.
- The advantages include excellent functionality and high connection speed.
- The main disadvantage of the application is its insecurity. It is recommended not to put yourself at risk or to install the specified software on an isolated virtual device.
Comodo Unite
A multifunctional program for organizing your personal network, within which there is a tool for managing your desktop.
Information is encrypted using a 128-bit protocol.
For ordinary people, all functionality will be presented in free mode.
RemotePC
The scope of use of this program is remote connection to a desktop when using a mobile device, but there is still the possibility of access to a PC when using the web interface.
It is possible to connect when using a proxy server.
It is worth saying that when controlled using a phone, certain key combinations simply do not work.
Still, in the free version it is possible to establish a session only using the “blue tooth”.
Price for licensed program will depend on the number of records, devices and starts from $50 per year.
Also, in the situation of using a mobile utility, you will additionally need to pay the cost on the mobile market.
- As advantages, one should note support for various platforms, as well as a common administration console for existing devices.
- The disadvantages include difficulties in accessing the file system, as well as the double fee that is charged for both the computer and mobile versions.
Supremo Remote Desktop
It is a common remote access tool that uses a 256-bit encryption protocol during information exchange.
As in AnyDesk, the function of setting up a pair of connections together is available only in the paid version.
However, its price is more reasonable - approximately 100 euros per year.
The creators of the utility talk about the very high speed of the first connection.
Still, during testing, the result of the software seemed average.
- A plus is the integrated file manager, as well as the use of the latest AES 256 bit encryption algorithm.
- The only downside is the lack of chat.
Radmin
Program from a domestic creator. The utility can safely be called a “veteran” among remote access software.
It’s completely normal that the utility has great functionality– built-in file manager, voice and text chats, various access modes not only for viewing, but also for management.
- The advantages include multifunctionality, as well as protection against password selection; there is even the possibility of forcing the PC to shut down.
- Among the disadvantages of the program, it is worth noting the specific and clumsy licensing policy - there are no free versions, there is only an experimental period, which lasts a month.
- The cost of a license varies and depends on a large number of factors.
- For this reason, the cost is best discussed with the creators in a personal conversation.
Splashtop Streamer

It is possible to use a proxy server.
The communication session is established by entering the coordinates of the remote computer - and set password. The presented algorithm cannot be called comfortable, yet the utility makes it possible to use plug-ins, one of which makes it possible to create a non-stationary installer with access parameters to a specific PC.
It is worth saying that for mobile devices there is only . Naturally, it can be used on a phone with a closed version of the OS, and such a solution cannot be called modern.
- The disadvantages include the absence own instrument for communication, as well as great price for the full version.
Security when working with remote access
Remote access seems to be a rather useful feature, but it can also harm the device.
For this reason, if there is a program on a PC for remote access to a PC, certain security rules must be followed.
Initially, you should install a good antivirus program with the latest updates.
You should not accept files that are unclear or actually unsafe.
It is also important to remember that most of the presented applications allow you to connect to your PC without permission.
Also, there is no need to leave the application running in offline mode when no one is using it at the moment. It is imperative to disable the activation function when loading Windows.
When the program has a blocking feature for unauthorized connections, there is no need to allow unknown users to connect.
Conclusion
As you can see, these utilities make it possible to get remote access to a PC extremely quickly and easily.
Although free programs not quite a lot, it’s worth highlighting a couple of their characteristics. When you only have, then for this type of control it would be best to download Ammy Admin.
This program is very simple. It consumes a small amount of system resources and traffic, does not require installation and makes it possible to create voice and text chat between PC users.
There is also the possibility of managing files in the system at your own discretion. For those who have a good PC, stable Internet at high speed, it is worth taking a closer look at TeamViewer.
By selecting the “home use” option, a PC user gets the opportunity to control someone else’s computer while sitting in one place, communicate by voice with the interlocutor and send him files of completely different sizes.
In a situation where you need a program to solve problems remotely, it is best to download RAdmin.
This program, in comparison with other similar utilities, makes it possible to restart the computer, turn it off, or start from disk.
This is a very useful function, since after changing the registry or making amendments to system settings, The PC must be rebooted.
The specified operation automatically breaks the connection with the extended server. The RAdmin program, on the contrary, automatically connects to the remote PC after the system starts.
This program is also perfect for business use and office maintenance. The utility also makes it possible to manage a local network and provides assistance to office employees while at home or in their own office.
There is a widespread trend among software creators and users that makes it possible to remotely control a computer using portable devices in the form of tablets and smartphones.
For this reason, based on your own preferences, you need to download one or several of these programs at once.
Online tracking and remote control
How can you keep an eye on your child if you are not nearby? Easily. There are programs that allow you to view the screen via the Internet by linking to an account. Moreover, in addition to the tracking function, each of these programs has a lot of additional functions. Let's look at the most popular software for tracking and remote control.
NeoSpy is a program for remote monitoring of a user's PC with the function online viewing screen via the Internet (linked to an account). Using this software product you can always view the screen of your home or work PC not only from another computer, but even from a phone or tablet via the Internet. The program is easy to install: you download the installation wizard from the official website, which downloads the program itself and installs it (by the way, there are no advertising or intrusive toolbars, which even large software companies have been guilty of lately, in the distribution). Next, after installation, go to settings and link the program to your account, after which the online screen viewing function will be available.
NeoSpy spy program
In addition to regular viewing, you can choose what to watch: windows that open, text typed on the keyboard, sites visited by the user, as well as correspondence in instant messengers installed on the user’s PC.
As can be seen from the screenshot of the settings, the program provides a lot of opportunities that everyone chooses for themselves, based on their goals and objectives.
Linking your account is very easy. Select “View via Internet”, enter your username and password, and click “Connect”. Turn on tracking.
Now go to the program website, enter your username and password, go to the “Account” tab and click on “Your computers”.
Online tracking in your account
In addition to viewing the screen itself, you can connect to your webcam, which will help you monitor not only the actions on the computer, but also around it. You can monitor whether your child is doing his homework.
If the program is on portable device– the program shows on the map the geographic location of your device at the time of use.
It should be noted that of the reviewed programs of this kind, it is NeoSpy that makes it possible to conduct hidden online tracking and allows you to save video from the screen in your account. It is also possible to skip rather than watch the entire video. Unlike NeoSpy, other programs do not save video, and tracking requires you to be constantly connected to the screen.
An important difference between NeoSpy and other programs presented is completely hidden surveillance, that is, the user does not see messages about your connection on his screen, as, for example, in TeamViewer and other programs, thanks to this your child will not know that he is being monitored.What else can be done with NeoSpy?
Traffic encryption. All data transmitted through the server is securely encrypted. They are almost impossible to decipher. NeoSpy uses AES encryption of data transmitted over the network (image screen, motion indicator, keyboard signals, etc.). Double password protection. The first is the online account: the password that is used to log into the online system. This only allows you to view a list of computers previously added to online system, but does not allow you to contact them. The second password (and most important) is the access password, which allows you to connect to the computer and see sensitive data.

Anyplace Control is a remote control program. The program displays the remote desktop of the client's computer on your screen and allows you to control it remotely using your own mouse and keyboard. Some of the popular software applications include remote support within a corporate environment or simply working from home with remote access to office computers.
Transfer files between PCs Anyplace Control provides a simple and secure option for transferring files between PCs using an interface that is similar to Windows XP Explorer. Anyplace Control file transfer software is very fast and reliable. Even if the network fails, it will resume transmission at the location where the failure occurred. Thus, there is no need to start the procedure again. There is no need to configure a router or firewall. You can connect to a remote desktop in three in various ways: "Connection IP Address", "Account Connection" and "Computer Connection ID" Anyplace Control provides access to remote PCs over the Internet that do not have external IP addresses. You can easily connect to other PCs with dynamic IP addresses or internal (192.168.xx) addresses without any additional network configurations. You can easily connect to your PC over the Internet, even if it is behind a router, firewall, or proxy server. There is no need to open firewall ports or configure a router.
Anyplace Control Interface
You can connect to your client in a few clicks. Anyplace Control does not require any special computer skills. If the standard host module installation is too complex, the remote user can manually download software by following a special link that has a pre-configured host module (does not require installation or any additional configuration).
To summarize, we can say that most programs support the most necessary functions– direct control of a remote PC. Some are free, some will have to be purchased. Some programs support creating accounts, which greatly simplifies remote management in the future. Often you can simply view the screen of a remote computer without taking over control of the latter. However, not all programs are multiplatform. Some work exclusively under the control of only one operating system, which is not very convenient in a large organization. For such purposes, it is much more advisable to use paid global products that support the creation of accounts and lists of PCs, saving passwords, run most of the most popular operating systems and are easily integrated into a large organization. If you just need to periodically monitor the screen of your home PC remotely, there is no point in buying expensive software, most of the functions of which you will not need. It is also worth paying attention to the operation of the program itself: some clearly show your remote presence on the computer, while others do not show themselves at all, which will be very useful for covert monitoring of the computer.
