Verdict

AnyDesk secures its position by delivering exceptional performance via its proprietary DeskRT codec, which is specifically designed to provide fluid, 60fps connections even over connections with limited bandwidth.

What customers praise

The client application is a single, small executable (under 4MB) that can run without installation, making it extremely fast to get a session started.

What customers criticise

While its core remote access is excellent, its broader administrative feature set, like user management and reporting, is less developed than Splashtop or ConnectWise.

Best for

Users working with graphics-intensive applications like CAD or video editing, where low latency and high frame rates are critical.
