Thank you so much for watching! This video, I must admit, was lacking in terms of research, and I'd like to revisit this topic in the future. I missed very important solutions such as RealVNC (and similar), Rustdesk, and Apple Screen Sharing. I'm sorry about that!
Thanks for the update; I've been using RealVNC as I've found its a better solution compared to any of the other solutions you've covered in this video. Second to that might be RDP. I also use Parsec strictly for games (or high refresh and low latency applications). The only downside for me is the lack of audio transmission which I have a solution for locally while remote uses audio to passthrough to discord which isn't practical at all. Audio transmission is only available for premium editions of RealVNC. Also because I work with Raspbain which comes with RealVNC Server preinstalled, its a seamless integration and requires less setup than SSH. Look forward to your content.
I would suggest giving Sunshine together with Moonlight a try. Sunshine is based on Nvidias gamestream service and Moonlight is the client app. Both free and works really well. I can play games, edit videos etc using my old tablet when i'm away from home.
I'll be honest, I'm not really in the market for a remote desktop, but I really admire the craft you put into this video. You are very informative, straightforward and no-BS with your script and I can only give you props for that! The platform needs more creators such as yourself.
PS: Parsec does support clipboard sharing between host and client within the same user account. Support for this has been out for years. However sometimes there is a bug and you have to copy a text multiple times on the client (press CTRL/CMD + C multiple times) before you can paste it into the host.
Personal favorite is for me, Moonlight, which uses the Nvidia Gamestream system, although due to Gamestream being classified as obsolete, they now offer their own system, Sunshine for all devices, Intel, AMD, Nvidia, with the same performance as Gamestream, if not better, and still remaining secure. So far its proven to be basically no delay, and great for gaming, or really just any general use. Only drawback is that its bound to the IP, unlike something like Parsec, which means if I leave a VPN on, I can't connect without using Parsec instead.
LogMeIn used to be free for personal use, but that s*** got abused by WAY too many Corp IT depts. so they stopped doing it. Team Viewer will probably have to do the same thing for the same reasons; if you're getting great baked goods for free, no one wants to be the sucker paying the bakery.
I apologize if I missed it in the comments, but there is no mention of realvnc. You can use it for up to 5 separate computers for free and has been fairly solid for me. Sad that it was not mentioned in this video
Ive been using anydesk since 2016/17 and it helped me get a lot done for myself and for relatives and friends who needed remote assistance.. ive used it for w7/10/11 and ubuntu.. parsec seems interesting.. thank you
I'm a bit late, but I can share my Parsec and RDP experience. For school, RDP was the easiest, because it's usable on crazy low bandwidth, and is built into Windows. I saved my work from school to home by just CtrlC CtrlV-ing the files, or writing code directly on the host. But nowadays, I'm living in 2 places, and I'd like to play some games. And Parsec is a godsent. It is playable even on mobile data. And with a Gamesir X2 for ex, it's shockingly good. For doing work, I bought a USB C dock, and plugged my keyboard and mouse into my phone. It works, but most of the controls on Android doesn't add up. Right click, scroll wheel click, windows key, alt tab is doing Android things even in Immersive mode (opening Google assistant, switching apps, home screen, etc). But it's good enough to open games, write code, etc.
I use Nomachine for my remote desktop purposes. It is fast as it has hardware encoding and decoding support and has options for you to access it from outside your home network. It is good enough to play FPS games. You can pass through your mic too. There is no need to create any accounts, there is a free version, and it is basically the most versatile. Basically, it is Teamviewer, but better. It runs on Windows, Linux, MacOS, and you even have Android clients so you can use your phone to access your home server. Also, within the same network, Steam Link works as a remote desktop software too, and you can even play games through it. But if you are using a non-US keyboard layout, there are issues with some of the keys, so I usually use Nomachine unless I really really need Steam Link.
I use Steam Link for remote access and it's great. I didn't even know it connects over the Internet (and not just on LAN) until recently. Really awesome 👍
Very thorough and well put together review. I've used most of the listed, but have settled on Chrome RDP and VNC almost out of laziness. Heard some good things about Guacamole and Parsec, but haven't tried many new things in a long time. Thanks for taking the time to make this video!
I use parsec extensively in my school using my old laptop to access my 4090 for rendering purposes. It is super fast, so fast sometimes you forget that you’re actually using a Remote Desktop.
@@junanraihan8130 True, it depends on your wifi speed. But for me, it’s really fast in my uni. Probably because they have a fast wifi, since they are uni lol.
I know you are talking about remote distant connection but for those who want to turn on their PC by Remote Control at home here you go. I simply wanted to turn on my PC by remote control at home as I did not want to get up out of my chair with my yellow lab sitting on my lap. I also did not want to use a phone or app to turn it on and off so here is how I did it. I added a remote control to my Minisforum mini pc by adding a "remote control power strip". Set the Bios (hit delete button during boot up), change the setting to enable pc to start after power outage. Then simply turn the pc off normally but after pc shuts down power off the power strip. When you turn power strip back on PC boots up automatically. Simple, cheap and effective! Hope this helps everyone.
Great video. I've used AnyDesk, which works amazing on the local network (but Windows to Windows only though). Even watching video through it works great. However, I've moved to NoMachine, which is much better and is compatible with a lot of operating systems. Again, though, I'm talking about local remoting.
13:30 Well, there is actually a „free version“ of Apple Remote desktop. It is free (and pre installed) when connecting within your home network. You can find it somewhere in the file system or using spotlight.
I've been using Splashtop for years and have been quite happy with it, Windows, Mac's, Linux, Android, iPad.... I'll check some of these others just to try it out.
You're missing NoMachine; which I run on Linux since Parsec doesn't have linux hosting support. It runs great. For windows hosting, RDP and Parsec are the ones that I use; mainly for simplicity reasons.
excellent job, i really miss the days when videos were too focused on the topic and well organized, without the need to sell BS and ads and such. i knew of parsec thanks to you and now i can share our very first full high spec gaming pc with my brother without being phisically there (i moved from parents house) (paired with some remote control utilities and hardware, like an ESP8266 to push the power button when my ISP fails to route wake on lan (WOL) and turn my pc on, which happens 20% of the times). thanks!
Microsoft Remote Desktop has a thing call shadow session. Once you are logged in your physical machine, any number of Windows clients(maybe only 5 or 10, I haven't tested) can remote-access that machine simultaneously using shadow session.
8:42 That will be a connection issue. I use both for my clients, AnyDesk and TeamViewer, and AnyDesk is much faster. Sometimes it has some connection problems to the AnyDesk network, that might be the case why it was slow on your test. Otherwise is much more cheaper and i quite like the handling more.
Well done video! I loved the thoroughness. I am sticking with Windows RDP from Samsung Dex to my desktop. Parsec didn't work well as I couldn't use Window Key hotkeys.
I'm actually surprised that you didn't cover steam link, which is technically remote desktop solution for gaming way before parsec. It saved my butt when i have login to my work pc for video editing when i just got home and needed a revision. From my experience, It works fine for latency sensitive work, supports h265 video encoding, doesn't need port forwarding, And it just works on any device that i owned so far. The main problem that i notice is when you work on a REALLY slow internet, as the quality crash to a dumpster fire and sometimes input doesn't register. Where as teamviewer, the input would absolutely still work, even when the display is lagging by 8 seconds or can't see anything. I use these 2 in tandem depending on the internet connection and use case, tho i prefer steam link. also out of topic but related to steam link: For some reason, when i play together with my friend (2 players), it plays just fine both on my end and my friends. but when i add a third player, the quality turns to garbage for both my friends. when 1 leaves, it returns back to normal.
Steam Link was originally in the script, we just decided to scrap it because it was covered by Parsec and Moonlight. We wanted to cover mostly full remote desktop and not game-focused software. Originally we also wanted to make a second video for gaming only, but it's not really needed.
The quality turning bad when a third person joins might be because 2 people playing is still a peer-to-peer connection, whereas when a third person joins it has to switch to 3-way peer-to-peer or even a server. I don't know.
@@PixelGM Sort of. It first dumps you on steam big picture interface, but you could exit the big picture mode. And voila, your desktop. mouse and keyboards works like normal. minimal lag. Tho, i would recommend parsec more nowadays, since they support h265 decoding, which steam doesn't support unless you're on mobile client (weird, i know)
@@kaktusgoreng yeah, i am using Parsec nowadays. I was just wondering if there's something line Parsec for alternative, just in case Parsec is gone, or they made it paid. I think Moonlight with Tailscale (peer to peer VPN) is also an alternative.
Never heard about Parsec, tried on my M2 Mac to windows machine 4000 km away. Oh wow, quality of app and stream is awesome, latency is great. Thank you dude🎉
Parsec does have clipboard sharing tho RustDesk is awesome although I’ve had some issues with some UAC prompts sometimes Moonlight would be awesome but it doesn’t support multiple displays and doesn’t have clipboard sharing.. it’s awesome for games but that’s about it
Great video. I use teamviewer to access my old android phone with a dead screen, (it hosts my discord bots with termux) I use Chrome Remote Desktop to control my home PC for quick things I use Moonlight with Steam Link to stream games to the TV in a different room And sometimes I use the Steam Link Android app to play some casual PC games from anywhere. (I always keep my PC on sleep so I can turn it on with Wake on Lan. Note that Wake On Lan by default works inside the local network. Though with some routers it is possible to get it working from anywhere, I didn't bother as I already have that always-on android phone which hosts bots, so I simply connect to it with teamviewer and send the WOL packet from it) When I'm done playing I just put it back to sleep.
I've been using chrome remote desktop to manage my desktop and servers for over a year now and found it to be a good for the things I was doing but I will definitely check out parsec now to stream games to my laptop. hopefully it supports windows 7 (I have an rtx 2060 and an i5-4590 but windows 11 broke so I returned to glory)
Been using Google Remote for almost a decade. Always installed on my phone and iPad. But I don't want to log in into my G account somewhere else. So I opened a Parsec account and that's what I use in my MacBook. Haven't tried from anywhere else but it works amazing.
For microsoft remote dekstop there is an unofficial program that allows hosting on linux, and probably for mac too, and opening port 3389 for the whole internet is as big of a security risk as letting someone trying to brute force your username and password, which can be done for all other software in the video.
Im using microsoft rdp for editing videos or watching twitch. I didnt want to open port 3389 so I created a wireguard vpn with my fritzbox router. RDP is so convenient because it's built in
13:00 I'm pretty sure that isn't for home use. On mac you can allow vnc connections in the system preferences, but you will need to use your own vnc client to connect to it.
I've done this before. I've found that once you get around possible port forwarding issues on your home router you're often severely limited by the upload bandwidth that your ISP provides... this frequently can make this idea completely unusable. Also, typically, if in a work setting the employer will block any RDP that's not authorized like this. From work, I've tried on my cell phone, but then it's ridiculously slow not just below of the ISPs upload bandwidth but also because cellular isn't known for great bandwidth either. So yes, sometimes it's possible, but often it's completely usuable for all intensive purposes.
@@kurti4432 I used to have Google Fiber too, and yes, when I had fiber this wasn't an issue. I haven't tried this since I moved into a new place about 8 months ago, but I don't have fiber anymore. I now live in a really rural area where they don't have it yet.
@@pmccarthy001 nowadays a 1 gig connection (I have the 1 gig Verizon FiOS with symmetrical upload and download speeds) is pretty cheap ya know, well at least in new jersey. Pretty sure should be similar in other places as well. Although I only get those speeds when I use a direct Ethernet connection to the router and not on WiFi but yeah you get my point.
@@kkb8510 If you have fiber service available where you live. I did have Gig Google fiber up until I moved in February. Moved into a rural area. They don't have fiber service here. The fastest they've got is the 20MB DSL I currently have.... at least until StarLink makes it here,... effectively make it here anyway. A lot of more rural areas just don't have fiber service yet.
chrome remote desktop is the best i've seen for touchscreens. Being able to use the whole screen for trackpad-style mouse control and being able to zoom in and out with pinch controls and pan around is better than anything I've seen on a phone. Otherwise parsec is my favorite for keyboard and mouse controls , and i use moonlight for most games since it's the most reliable for controller support i've found.
Hello there, just wanted to say this about Remote Desktop, as I feel maybe you'd like to know: I typically use Remote Desktop when interfacing with Windows servers, The compatibility is actually rather vast, and hosts works everywhere, for example, you don't need to use the official client, I run a "Wine Docker" in one of my servers, and I have an RDP setting for it, which I enabled, RDP is the actual format of the remote desktop, you need an RDP host, and it'll let you host on any server or computer.
I've used TeamViewer for about 9 years and I agree with all your opinions on it. I do love it but doing work in Adobe products is limited. In Photoshop for instance, holding the spacebar or any button down does not translate the same and makes it so much more difficult to get a task done.
Personally my way of doing things on the go is Chrome Remote Desktop: to do work/access files Moonlight (NVIDIA GPUs only): to play video games (although you can also use it for productivity stuff)
I also like Rustdesk. Still some features are beta and only available in the nightly pre-release. Hopefully in some month it is the perfect replacement for teamviewer.
@@t0ys93 Sounds like the RDP client you using does not support shadow. From another Microsoft system mstsc /shadow:{sessionID}. Depending on your setup there maybe other local / group policies you need to set for this to work
Parsec is just the goat, at least for windows users i have used every single one of these it suprised me that you said that anydesk is slower than teamviewer because for me is the other way around, but alas parsec is just perfect it has unnoticible latency i literally feel like im in my computer every time the screen support is great, the only thing that its missing could be file transfer, that is why i use anydesk at work where i need to transfer files between computers, but overall all of these function great i suggest everyone to try all of them and stick with whatever fits your boot.
Self host a Wireguard VPN on a raspberry pi, and make it default offline with a smartplug. And you are secure. You could also make it send you and email or a twit when its powered on or someone logged into it. And You have a fairly secure connection to your home network. Just available when you need it. And no ports exposed to outside. Also You can you Tailgate if you whish which is realy secure and low setup. (But the smart plug powered option will give you easy of mind thats for sure)
RDP was good but the main issue I found with it when gaming was I couldn't get the mouse to move in 3d space in games, like the mouse only moved until it hit the edge of the screen, this is called relative mouse movement I think and its absent on RDP. Parsec on the other hand is amazing. I have been using it to play games on my laptop(Linux) from my PC and it works amazing. Just recently bought a controller and having some trouble getting it working on Linux, but overall my experience with Parsec is good.
@@sonic4life I haven't tried with online games as I have been playing single player for a while now. In SP games RDP had a noticeably higher latency compared to Parsec. I only play on LAN via WiFi at home and haven't tested outside. With parsec I would say there's about 25-40ms latency and with RDP it is higher, roughly 20-40ms higher than what I get on Parsec. I don't recommend RDP for gaming though. The 3D mouse movement wouldn't work.
@@sonic4life yeah. With multiplayer games there maybe a slight disadvantage. But for single player its pretty good. I completed my spiderman & miles morales playthrough using Parsec and its pretty neat.
If you have a permanent installation at home Guacamole as an RDP Middle Man Open Source Alternative as Open Source RMM MeshCentral as an Alternative to Anydesk/Teamviewer Rustdesk -> Also Open Source
I use splashtop since it came out and got an anywhere pack for free. Its the best remote but I think its monthly now. They went into the business space now. It was the best for streaming video.
I thought for sure you'd have touched on NoMachine! It sound like parsec, but with more device sharing. It is also UDP based. You can forward sound, mic, usb, printing, maybe more. I have gamed on it from the same network as well.
Jump Desktop is almost Parsed like in latency but the Mac hosting is much more solid. Worth a look. The Mac Client does cost, but unlimited hosts and a free windows client
I'm using RDP with Tailscale and it works great actually. I'm carrying only Android tablet and keyboard. But Tailscale is a bit off topic to this video's situation. I will test others. Great video keep up!!
I use most of those products (Daily) and haven’t had any of the performance issues you have with products like AnyDesk. I stopped using TeamViewer because their pricing model is stupidly expensive.
@@KalosLikesComputers There are also products that have been around for ever like Logmein, VNC etc….but most of the time if possible I vpn and use MS RDP
about your AnyDesk review, here in Philippines, anydesk is much faster than teamviewer..maybe it only depends on the region it was installed or edge that it was connected
I dont know why your experience with AnyDesk was bad, but you should give it another try. I have tried it many times and even with bad network its good. But yes, i have not tried watching HR videos but usually people use remote desktop for an urgent requirement or an emergency. Else everyone carries their stuff in their laptop. However, i can feel you had bad experience. And i request give it another try.
On the same network it was...acceptable, but since this video was about connecting from *anywhere,* I connected to a friend's PC from my house, and the results were as you saw...
I agree. Anydesk does work in most situations and one could argue the mobile app is better than most out there. If TV pricing is too much then Anydesk is a good option.
I know it's an old video, but if you guys don't mind some setup. Moonlight/Sunshine + TailScale has become my go to option for my remote work when I'm outside my home or workplace. IMO it provides the best quality and decent input latency, so you can use it for video, photo editing, gaming, movies etc.
Man, I have to commment. Your reviews are great and on point! and Your are also funny!! So what more should I expect?? I love you man. Keep up the great works!
Does Parsec allow you to setup for many pcs to connected too Ie could it be used to connect to any pc in an office. Also does it allow copying and pasting form the remove pc to the local pc or vice versa of is it really just a screen scrape type of this which while fast it very limited it what you can do in a support mode!
It absolutely supports many PCs. You can either set up all the PCs on one account, or each PC on its own account (or any combination) and have all the accounts be "friends" with each other and give them unattended permission.
no way bro installed spyware on his perfectly nice macbook to use as a browser. firefox, safari, and chrome but no... edge. all jokes aside i appreciate the guide
Hey there, i am currently trying out different options that would allow me to work from anywhere in the world, but i am still not sure which software would fit best. So here is what I‘m doing: I would like to have a stationairy computer at the company I work for (doesnt even need to have a screen) and would like to access this computer via my macbook (built in 2016, 2,7ghz Quad Core intel core i7, 16gb 2133mhz LPDDR3, intel hd graphics 530 1536 mb) whenever I want to. I‘m planning on living full time in a van while driving around europe, so since a good internet connection is key, i‘m thinking about getting starlink access. My actual work would be creating 3D rooms from scans, drawing and planing furniture and design elements in vectorworks, accessing various online librarys from manufacturers, Talking to the production team via zoom and remotely programming our cnc for production (this is also why its key to have the computer in the workshop: i need it to be physically linked to our cnc). I would be so greatfull if you would have any suggestions on this topic how i could make this a reality. Cheers
This is all super far out, dude. I think you should find a reliable solution besides remote desktop to be able to do your work entirely locally if you need to. Starlink is no guarantee.
Whats the best way to remote controle a Chrome book (from my work) which is at my home while I'm traveling? I'm now allowed to install anything on work chrome book and need something that can also forward video calls via Google Meet to my personal laptop so that I can not only do the work but participate in work calls as well
Lol we gonna talk about the security risks that this could open up for normal users? In theory, yes, this could be great for people. In reality, how many know how to properly protect themselves? Maybe a future video idea? How to accomplish this while keeping security top notch.
I've been using Moonlight for streaming games and desktop to my android phone with a folding keyboard and controller, and (in the future) a mini PC hooked up to a high refresh rate portable monitor. I might give parsec a try and see how it stacks up. Moonlight is nice because it tricks GeForce experience into thinking that whatever you're streaming to is a Nvidia shield so latency is unbelievably low, but I've had issues with windows sign-in, resolution scaling, and UAC. But even over 4G (5G is surprisingly seem less) it's a very playable experience.
I know this is an old video, but just a suggestion for a future video as it appears based off these comments no one really knows about this, but moonlight and sunshine are a god tier combo when it comes to this type of stuff.
the one other app that ive been using nowadays is moonlight, which does require you to have a geforce graphics card 200 and above, but it is a very reliable and almost no delay remote desktop experience (it does depends on your internet connection speed) in my experience, also, as a given, when you connect with kb and mouse, or even a controller, it works like a charm. Plus, in moonlight, there is also an option to have on screen controller if you so wish to just play directly on the screen, which as a plus, it has better latency compared to connecting it to a bluetooth controller to the device ur using it on. I'm telling this from a phone user perspective, but moonlight is also available on pc, albeit you have to install to use, not a web thing.
the problem i've with remote desktop solutions is that the desktop what i want to remote into, has to be kept on all the time. This consumes a lot of extra energy and energy rates are high so it's a no go

I use Nomachine for my remote desktop purposes. It is fast as it has hardware encoding and decoding support and has options for you to access it from outside your home network. It is good enough to play FPS games. You can pass through your mic too. There is no need to create any accounts, there is a free version, and it is basically the most versatile.

Also, within the same network, Steam Link works as a remote desktop software too, and you can even play games through it. But if you are using a non-US keyboard layout, there are issues with some of the keys, so I usually use Nomachine unless I really really need Steam Link.
Can you use your home pc with your notebook from outside the house, in Starbucks etc? Is nomachine safe?
Nomachine is goated
I use Steam Link for remote access and it's great. I didn't even know it connects over the Internet (and not just on LAN) until recently. Really awesome 👍
This was an amazing video. Exactly what I was looking for. I hope you'll keep making awesome videos like this.
Very thorough and well put together review. I've used most of the listed, but have settled on Chrome RDP and VNC almost out of laziness. Heard some good things about Guacamole and Parsec, but haven't tried many new things in a long time. Thanks for taking the time to make this video!
Parsec has a big competitor called Moonlight which is apparently better, there is also Twingate which is a bit more complex but worth testing
Does it require the two devices to be online and connected to wifi?
@@ariannenicolemendoza3865 you know, streaming isn't just magic
@@ariannenicolemendoza3865 Of course. They have to be connected to each other.
Apple's is just regular VNC, and you can toggle it on or off in the share settings in system pref.
I use parsec extensively in my school using my old laptop to access my 4090 for rendering purposes. It is super fast, so fast sometimes you forget that you’re actually using a Remote Desktop.
how much is the network latency as u r not on local network??
@@junanraihan8130 very low at school. Something like 1-5ms, but it depends. Sometimes it’s slower. But most of the time it is blazing fast.
@@seanzhang3873 i also tested parsec on different high speed wifi networks from different ISPs but the latency was 90ms...
@@junanraihan8130 True, it depends on your wifi speed. But for me, it’s really fast in my uni. Probably because they have a fast wifi, since they are uni lol.
@@junanraihan8130 I’m gonna go to uni tomorrow, I’ll try record the exact latency.
I know you are talking about remote distant connection but for those who want to turn on their PC by Remote Control at home here you go. I simply wanted to turn on my PC by remote control at home as I did not want to get up out of my chair with my yellow lab sitting on my lap. I also did not want to use a phone or app to turn it on and off so here is how I did it. I added a remote control to my Minisforum mini pc by adding a "remote control power strip". Set the Bios (hit delete button during boot up), change the setting to enable pc to start after power outage. Then simply turn the pc off normally but after pc shuts down power off the power strip. When you turn power strip back on PC boots up automatically. Simple, cheap and effective! Hope this helps everyone.
An honourable mention is Quick assist, as it's built into windows and you only need to share one code to take over.
And you can get to it with just Ctrl + Windows + Q, best app for non tech savvy over the phone
SSH is not just a way to remotely access a terminal, there is X over ssh to allow graphical applications to be passed through.
Yeah. I know. Try explaining this to a freshman student or a parent.
I would add sunshine + moonlight to the list. Its an opensource alternative to parsec
Thank you! It was hard to find a parsec review so I really enjoyed your work on it 💪 thank you
Great video. I've used AnyDesk, which works amazing on the local network (but Windows to Windows only though). Even watching video through it works great. However, I've moved to NoMachine, which is much better and is compatible with a lot of operating systems. Again, though, I'm talking about local remoting.
Hello, How is it going with NoMachine? I am testing AeroAdmin at the moment. Trying to decide whther to pay for a license.
I only use windows and ios
@@teokey6038 I use nomachine and haven't had any thoughts about switching since I do not have to pay anything.
another vote for nomachine here. it's pretty great.
Thanks so much, dude, just installed Nomachine and I'm floored. Much better experience than AnyDesk!
13:30 Well, there is actually a „free version“ of Apple Remote desktop. It is free (and pre installed) when connecting within your home network. You can find it somewhere in the file system or using spotlight.
On macOS it's called "Screen Sharing", which comes bundled with the OS for free and works fine. It's based on VNC.
What about what to do once your PC goes into hibernation/sleep mode?
A downside of Parsec is that they don't support Linux Hosting. Hope they add this feature later on
it works for ubuntu
@@wamy_ he meant the host, not the client
I've been using Splashtop for years and have been quite happy with it, Windows, Mac's, Linux, Android, iPad.... I'll check some of these others just to try it out.
You're missing NoMachine; which I run on Linux since Parsec doesn't have linux hosting support. It runs great. For windows hosting, RDP and Parsec are the ones that I use; mainly for simplicity reasons.
Can you use your home pc with your notebook from outside the house, in Starbucks etc? Is nomachine safe?
excellent job, i really miss the days when videos were too focused on the topic and well organized, without the need to sell BS and ads and such. i knew of parsec thanks to you and now i can share our very first full high spec gaming pc with my brother without being phisically there (i moved from parents house) (paired with some remote control utilities and hardware, like an ESP8266 to push the power button when my ISP fails to route wake on lan (WOL) and turn my pc on, which happens 20% of the times). thanks!
Windows also has QuickConnect, but instead of working by opening ports in the network, it works like TeamViewer but only windows to windows
and works through your microsoft account in terms of security.
Microsoft Remote Desktop has a thing call shadow session. Once you are logged in your physical machine, any number of Windows clients(maybe only 5 or 10, I haven't tested) can remote-access that machine simultaneously using shadow session.
8:42 That will be a connection issue. I use both for my clients, AnyDesk and TeamViewer, and AnyDesk is much faster. Sometimes it has some connection problems to the AnyDesk network, that might be the case why it was slow on your test. Otherwise is much more cheaper and i quite like the handling more.
Shouldn't have to go through a middleman (anydesk network) in the first place though.
Well done video! I loved the thoroughness. I am sticking with Windows RDP from Samsung Dex to my desktop. Parsec didn't work well as I couldn't use Window Key hotkeys.
I'm actually surprised that you didn't cover steam link, which is technically remote desktop solution for gaming way before parsec. It saved my butt when i have login to my work pc for video editing when i just got home and needed a revision.
From my experience, It works fine for latency sensitive work, supports h265 video encoding, doesn't need port forwarding, And it just works on any device that i owned so far.
The main problem that i notice is when you work on a REALLY slow internet, as the quality crash to a dumpster fire and sometimes input doesn't register. Where as teamviewer, the input would absolutely still work, even when the display is lagging by 8 seconds or can't see anything. I use these 2 in tandem depending on the internet connection and use case, tho i prefer steam link.
also out of topic but related to steam link: For some reason, when i play together with my friend (2 players), it plays just fine both on my end and my friends. but when i add a third player, the quality turns to garbage for both my friends. when 1 leaves, it returns back to normal.
Steam Link was originally in the script, we just decided to scrap it because it was covered by Parsec and Moonlight. We wanted to cover mostly full remote desktop and not game-focused software. Originally we also wanted to make a second video for gaming only, but it's not really needed.
The quality turning bad when a third person joins might be because 2 people playing is still a peer-to-peer connection, whereas when a third person joins it has to switch to 3-way peer-to-peer or even a server. I don't know.
It does work as an RDP? I thought it's for remote play only?
@@PixelGM Sort of. It first dumps you on steam big picture interface, but you could exit the big picture mode. And voila, your desktop. mouse and keyboards works like normal. minimal lag.
Tho, i would recommend parsec more nowadays, since they support h265 decoding, which steam doesn't support unless you're on mobile client (weird, i know)
@@kaktusgoreng yeah, i am using Parsec nowadays. I was just wondering if there's something line Parsec for alternative, just in case Parsec is gone, or they made it paid. I think Moonlight with Tailscale (peer to peer VPN) is also an alternative.
Never heard about Parsec, tried on my M2 Mac to windows machine 4000 km away. Oh wow, quality of app and stream is awesome, latency is great. Thank you dude🎉
Parsec does have clipboard sharing tho
RustDesk is awesome although I’ve had some issues with some UAC prompts sometimes
Moonlight would be awesome but it doesn’t support multiple displays and doesn’t have clipboard sharing.. it’s awesome for games but that’s about it
Great video.
I use teamviewer to access my old android phone with a dead screen, (it hosts my discord bots with termux)
I use Chrome Remote Desktop to control my home PC for quick things
I use Moonlight with Steam Link to stream games to the TV in a different room
And sometimes I use the Steam Link Android app to play some casual PC games from anywhere. (I always keep my PC on sleep so I can turn it on with Wake on Lan. Note that Wake On Lan by default works inside the local network. Though with some routers it is possible to get it working from anywhere, I didn't bother as I already have that always-on android phone which hosts bots, so I simply connect to it with teamviewer and send the WOL packet from it) When I'm done playing I just put it back to sleep.
I've been using chrome remote desktop to manage my desktop and servers for over a year now and found it to be a good for the things I was doing but I will definitely check out parsec now to stream games to my laptop. hopefully it supports windows 7 (I have an rtx 2060 and an i5-4590 but windows 11 broke so I returned to glory)
Been using Google Remote for almost a decade. Always installed on my phone and iPad. But I don't want to log in into my G account somewhere else. So I opened a Parsec account and that's what I use in my MacBook. Haven't tried from anywhere else but it works amazing.
where did you even manage to find a win7 iso?

2 years later this video still perfect!
For microsoft remote dekstop there is an unofficial program that allows hosting on linux, and probably for mac too, and opening port 3389 for the whole internet is as big of a security risk as letting someone trying to brute force your username and password, which can be done for all other software in the video.
Im using microsoft rdp for editing videos or watching twitch. I didnt want to open port 3389 so I created a wireguard vpn with my fritzbox router. RDP is so convenient because it's built in
xrdp, extremely laggy performance, not worth it.
steamlink can also be used. just set it up to load to desktop rather then big picture mode.
Apple has Apple Screenshare which is pretty much a VNC Client/Server and can connect to any VNC Server
They also have ARD which I think is a superior protocol to the built in VNC server.
13:00 I'm pretty sure that isn't for home use. On mac you can allow vnc connections in the system preferences, but you will need to use your own vnc client to connect to it.
You can use the screen sharing app on client to connect to host and its preinstalled
I've done this before. I've found that once you get around possible port forwarding issues on your home router you're often severely limited by the upload bandwidth that your ISP provides... this frequently can make this idea completely unusable. Also, typically, if in a work setting the employer will block any RDP that's not authorized like this. From work, I've tried on my cell phone, but then it's ridiculously slow not just below of the ISPs upload bandwidth but also because cellular isn't known for great bandwidth either. So yes, sometimes it's possible, but often it's completely usuable for all intensive purposes.
Fine a better ISP because there should be no limit on your upload . But then again I have Google fiber 😎
@@kurti4432 I used to have Google Fiber too, and yes, when I had fiber this wasn't an issue. I haven't tried this since I moved into a new place about 8 months ago, but I don't have fiber anymore. I now live in a really rural area where they don't have it yet.
@@pmccarthy001 nowadays a 1 gig connection (I have the 1 gig Verizon FiOS with symmetrical upload and download speeds) is pretty cheap ya know, well at least in new jersey. Pretty sure should be similar in other places as well. Although I only get those speeds when I use a direct Ethernet connection to the router and not on WiFi but yeah you get my point.
@@kkb8510 If you have fiber service available where you live. I did have Gig Google fiber up until I moved in February. Moved into a rural area. They don't have fiber service here. The fastest they've got is the 20MB DSL I currently have.... at least until StarLink makes it here,... effectively make it here anyway. A lot of more rural areas just don't have fiber service yet.
@@pmccarthy001 oh yeah im sure its a problem in the rural areas, fortunately the place i live in has no such issues.
You can edit RDP on windows policies to enable gpu acceleration and h264
chrome remote desktop is the best i've seen for touchscreens. Being able to use the whole screen for trackpad-style mouse control and being able to zoom in and out with pinch controls and pan around is better than anything I've seen on a phone. Otherwise parsec is my favorite for keyboard and mouse controls , and i use moonlight for most games since it's the most reliable for controller support i've found.
Hello there, just wanted to say this about Remote Desktop, as I feel maybe you'd like to know: I typically use Remote Desktop when interfacing with Windows servers, The compatibility is actually rather vast, and hosts works everywhere, for example, you don't need to use the official client, I run a "Wine Docker" in one of my servers, and I have an RDP setting for it, which I enabled, RDP is the actual format of the remote desktop, you need an RDP host, and it'll let you host on any server or computer.
I've used TeamViewer for about 9 years and I agree with all your opinions on it. I do love it but doing work in Adobe products is limited. In Photoshop for instance, holding the spacebar or any button down does not translate the same and makes it so much more difficult to get a task done.
Personally my way of doing things on the go is
Chrome Remote Desktop: to do work/access files
Moonlight (NVIDIA GPUs only): to play video games (although you can also use it for productivity stuff)
I also like Rustdesk. Still some features are beta and only available in the nightly pre-release. Hopefully in some month it is the perfect replacement for teamviewer.
Are there any alternatives to RDP that allow for remote microphone input?
Not that I know of, unfortunately. Remote audio is weird.
@kalos
12:27 - RDP - you can connect to RDP client without logging him off (just like teamviewer)
- also, RDP can be configured up to 60fps
how to connect rdp client without logging off ? if i want to connect my pc from my smartphone my pc always logging off and i need to sign in
@@t0ys93 Sounds like the RDP client you using does not support shadow. From another Microsoft system mstsc /shadow:{sessionID}. Depending on your setup there maybe other local / group policies you need to set for this to work
Parsec is just the goat, at least for windows users i have used every single one of these it suprised me that you said that anydesk is slower than teamviewer because for me is the other way around, but alas parsec is just perfect it has unnoticible latency i literally feel like im in my computer every time the screen support is great, the only thing that its missing could be file transfer, that is why i use anydesk at work where i need to transfer files between computers, but overall all of these function great i suggest everyone to try all of them and stick with whatever fits your boot.
Self host a Wireguard VPN on a raspberry pi, and make it default offline with a smartplug. And you are secure. You could also make it send you and email or a twit when its powered on or someone logged into it. And You have a fairly secure connection to your home network. Just available when you need it. And no ports exposed to outside. Also You can you Tailgate if you whish which is realy secure and low setup. (But the smart plug powered option will give you easy of mind thats for sure)
Excellent video. Please make more videos. I have subscribed ! How about a follow up video about the software you left out ?
RDP was good but the main issue I found with it when gaming was I couldn't get the mouse to move in 3d space in games, like the mouse only moved until it hit the edge of the screen, this is called relative mouse movement I think and its absent on RDP. Parsec on the other hand is amazing. I have been using it to play games on my laptop(Linux) from my PC and it works amazing. Just recently bought a controller and having some trouble getting it working on Linux, but overall my experience with Parsec is good.
What's your experience with online games and latency?
@@sonic4life I haven't tried with online games as I have been playing single player for a while now. In SP games RDP had a noticeably higher latency compared to Parsec.
I only play on LAN via WiFi at home and haven't tested outside.
With parsec I would say there's about 25-40ms latency and with RDP it is higher, roughly 20-40ms higher than what I get on Parsec. I don't recommend RDP for gaming though. The 3D mouse movement wouldn't work.
@@peacemekka thanks for the reply! I figured we are still far away from a smooth gaming experience with this 😭
@@sonic4life yeah. With multiplayer games there maybe a slight disadvantage. But for single player its pretty good. I completed my spiderman & miles morales playthrough using Parsec and its pretty neat.
Parsec is AMAZINGGGG! thank you so much for making this video and letting people know about this APP!!
Wow, I never had any issues with Anydesk, and I have around 60 computers on it. All remote, and all on various internet connections on the clients.
Yes same. It'a all smooth for me even from cellphone data! IDK why @Kalos Likes Computers had performance problems...

I downloaded parsec thanks to this video. It's exactly what I needed. Thanks!
I use splashtop since it came out and got an anywhere pack for free. Its the best remote but I think its monthly now. They went into the business space now. It was the best for streaming video.
I second this! I have used personal for 10 years $16 for 5 boxes is hard to beat. Tested SOS and Enterprise and would have loved to keep it.
I thought for sure you'd have touched on NoMachine! It sound like parsec, but with more device sharing. It is also UDP based. You can forward sound, mic, usb, printing, maybe more. I have gamed on it from the same network as well.
Jump Desktop is almost Parsed like in latency but the Mac hosting is much more solid. Worth a look. The Mac Client does cost, but unlimited hosts and a free windows client
I agree. I have tried sooooo many things and JUMP DESKTOP is [for now] by far the best
I have been serching for u for 2 weeks ago , u are the best man keep going , we need more way to use remote desktop
I miss Parsec for iOS - the only downside of this amazing software
So you can not remote into ios from windows with parsec?
I'm using RDP with Tailscale and it works great actually. I'm carrying only Android tablet and keyboard. But Tailscale is a bit off topic to this video's situation. I will test others. Great video keep up!!
I use most of those products (Daily) and haven’t had any of the performance issues you have with products like AnyDesk.
I stopped using TeamViewer because their pricing model is stupidly expensive.
I probably got unlucky with AnyDesk!
@@KalosLikesComputers There are also products that have been around for ever like Logmein, VNC etc….but most of the time if possible I vpn and use MS RDP
i I use ZeroTier or Tailscale, and after that, I remote in with remote desktop... works like a charm.
about your AnyDesk review, here in Philippines, anydesk is much faster than teamviewer..maybe it only depends on the region it was installed or edge that it was connected
Such an amazing video bro. Hope you keep doing this kind of videos. Cheers!
No RustDesk? Open source >> all. Do not let proprietary garbage control your computer, especially when it comes to security!!!
Idk if it's the best way but I would prefer VPN to home and using RDP. It works flawlessly.
I dont know why your experience with AnyDesk was bad, but you should give it another try. I have tried it many times and even with bad network its good. But yes, i have not tried watching HR videos but usually people use remote desktop for an urgent requirement or an emergency. Else everyone carries their stuff in their laptop. However, i can feel you had bad experience. And i request give it another try.
On the same network it was...acceptable, but since this video was about connecting from *anywhere,* I connected to a friend's PC from my house, and the results were as you saw...
@@KalosLikesComputers maybe your friends network was slow because for me anydesk works great
I agree. Anydesk does work in most situations and one could argue the mobile app is better than most out there. If TV pricing is too much then Anydesk is a good option.
I know it's an old video, but if you guys don't mind some setup. Moonlight/Sunshine + TailScale has become my go to option for my remote work when I'm outside my home or workplace. IMO it provides the best quality and decent input latency, so you can use it for video, photo editing, gaming, movies etc.
Hi from Colombia, I use Remote Desktop Windows and using Tailscale to Connect all my devices in the same network, Works very quickly
I think you should've included VNC, which is preinstalled on some linux distros
Thank you for this video, Chris "the beautiful". I didn't know there are sooooo many remote desktop apps.
I always used Splashtop in my local network free. But outside the network you need to pay. it's time to look through which programs there are more
Man, I have to commment. Your reviews are great and on point! and Your are also funny!! So what more should I expect?? I love you man. Keep up the great works!
Anydesk has given me the best experiece so far.
Does Parsec allow you to setup for many pcs to connected too Ie could it be used to connect to any pc in an office. Also does it allow copying and pasting form the remove pc to the local pc or vice versa of is it really just a screen scrape type of this which while fast it very limited it what you can do in a support mode!
It absolutely supports many PCs. You can either set up all the PCs on one account, or each PC on its own account (or any combination) and have all the accounts be "friends" with each other and give them unattended permission.
@@KalosLikesComputers does it support copy and paste from local pc to remote?
@@TheEnimabandit Parsec does have shared clipboard, but I'm pretty sure it's only for text.
I wish you compared parsec vs steam remote play for gaming (tho steam can show desktop too)
In my experience it's about the same, only Parsec has more options.

Hey there, i am currently trying out different options that would allow me to work from anywhere in the world, but i am still not sure which software would fit best. So here is what I‘m doing: I would like to have a stationairy computer at the company I work for (doesnt even need to have a screen) and would like to access this computer via my macbook (built in 2016, 2,7ghz Quad Core intel core i7, 16gb 2133mhz LPDDR3, intel hd graphics 530 1536 mb) whenever I want to. I‘m planning on living full time in a van while driving around europe, so since a good internet connection is key, i‘m thinking about getting starlink access. My actual work would be creating 3D rooms from scans, drawing and planing furniture and design elements in vectorworks, accessing various online librarys from manufacturers, Talking to the production team via zoom and remotely programming our cnc for production (this is also why its key to have the computer in the workshop: i need it to be physically linked to our cnc). I would be so greatfull if you would have any suggestions on this topic how i could make this a reality. Cheers
This is all super far out, dude. I think you should find a reliable solution besides remote desktop to be able to do your work entirely locally if you need to. Starlink is no guarantee.
Thank you so much!!! Wow Parsec is so damn smooth!!! Even when connecting from Asia to Canada...
That's unexpected! Must be a pretty direct connection
Whats the best way to remote controle a Chrome book (from my work) which is at my home while I'm traveling? I'm now allowed to install anything on work chrome book and need something that can also forward video calls via Google Meet to my personal laptop so that I can not only do the work but participate in work calls as well
Chrome Remote Desktop should be great for that!
Wow, what a great video! Good job on quality. 👍
Lol we gonna talk about the security risks that this could open up for normal users? In theory, yes, this could be great for people. In reality, how many know how to properly protect themselves? Maybe a future video idea? How to accomplish this while keeping security top notch.
I've been using Moonlight for streaming games and desktop to my android phone with a folding keyboard and controller, and (in the future) a mini PC hooked up to a high refresh rate portable monitor. I might give parsec a try and see how it stacks up.
Moonlight is nice because it tricks GeForce experience into thinking that whatever you're streaming to is a Nvidia shield so latency is unbelievably low, but I've had issues with windows sign-in, resolution scaling, and UAC. But even over 4G (5G is surprisingly seem less) it's a very playable experience.
7:45 “and pray to Cthulhu” 😭. I literally tell my coworkers I’m going to sacrifice myself to Cthulhu if customers keep acting the way they do 💀
I know this is an old video, but just a suggestion for a future video as it appears based off these comments no one really knows about this, but moonlight and sunshine are a god tier combo when it comes to this type of stuff.
Any of those which I can be able to turn on my pc from remote and use it?
the one other app that ive been using nowadays is moonlight, which does require you to have a geforce graphics card 200 and above, but it is a very reliable and almost no delay remote desktop experience (it does depends on your internet connection speed) in my experience, also, as a given, when you connect with kb and mouse, or even a controller, it works like a charm. Plus, in moonlight, there is also an option to have on screen controller if you so wish to just play directly on the screen, which as a plus, it has better latency compared to connecting it to a bluetooth controller to the device ur using it on. I'm telling this from a phone user perspective, but moonlight is also available on pc, albeit you have to install to use, not a web thing.
It is gaming only and you can get around that geforce graphics card restriction by coupling it with sunshine afaik.
Last time I used parsec it said they were removing the arcade (the feature that lets you play multiplayer with random people)
the problem i've with remote desktop solutions is that the desktop what i want to remote into, has to be kept on all the time. This consumes a lot of extra energy and energy rates are high so it's a no go
Wake on LAN! But you still need a server running to do that... Unless you hack your router.
