Hello fellow MUUGers.

At the last MUUG round table, I mentioned I use a paid remote desktop service called "Splashtop" to access my office computers from home.

They have a very reasonable commercial rate of only $99 per year for access for up to 10 computers.

Well today, they just announced a major upgrade to their streaming for no additional charge and I just had to highly recommend them if you are looking for professional remote desktop solutions during this work from home time.

They have awesome multi-monitor, and iphone/android support, which is the major reason why I use them over open source solutions. That and the fact that I've never had any issues using their software over the last 12 months. Their software just works.

YMMV.

Splashtop introduces high resolution streaming, single sign-on integration, and more new features.

Hi Brad,

Thank you for being a Splashtop customer! We value your business and want to make sure you are aware of our most recent enhancements that will elevate your remote access experience.

High resolution streaming at low latency

Splashtop has added new performance features that support multi-monitor 4K-quality streaming at more than 40 frames per second, at low latency. What that means is if you are a video editor, game developer, CAD/CAM user, or need to perform processing-intensive activities, you can now be better equipped to work from home without requiring physical access to your high-end workstations. Read what professionals in the media and entertainment industry and architects have to say about their experience working from home with Splashtop.

Single Sign-On (SSO) integration add-on 

To improve our users’ security and enable easy, centralized authentication Splashtop has integrated with major identity providers like ADFS, Azure AD, Okta, OneLogin, and JumpCloud. You can now use your centralized SSO User ID and password to authenticate your Splashtop account. Contact us if you are interested to add on SSO to your subscription.

Learn more about the new Splashtop and JumpCloud SSO integration at a Splashtop and JumpCloud live Q&A on May 29th at 11:30 am ET. Be sure to select the May 29th date when registering.
