   My favorite, better than TeamViewer.

   Yes, it is better than TeamViewer for RASPBERRY PI. More specifically, Raspberry Pi 3B+. Tried TeamViewer before but it was so slow, not about the connection but something about the processing power required by the TeamViewer. DWService is smoooooth. It is web-based (unlike TeamViewer) to access the remote client, and it requires agent installation on the remote client which is easy in Raspberry Pi, and also Windows PC.

ThinLinc Reviews

DWService mentions (19)

• VNC replacement

  Other then that, dwservice.net give you full control via a browser or Rust Desk if you want teamview experience. Source: 12 months ago

• HPE ILO extremely slow

  I use dwservice.net to access my systems (1 Ubuntu headless and 1 Ubuntu GUI) and am loving it. Source: about 1 year ago

• What to use for remote desktop on Ubuntu

  I was using Chrome Remote Desktop, but when I reinstalled the system I couldn't get it working again. Now I'm using dwservice.net. The agent gives you a file browser, a shell, a text browser, and a full desktop all within a browser instance. Seems to work well for my purposes. Source: about 1 year ago

• Virtual screen

  Use dwservice (dwservice.net). It is free and works even when no monitor is connected. Source: over 1 year ago

• Help installing/setting up XRDP (Remote Desktop Protocol)?

  Dwservice.net should, in theory, work, but I haven't suceeded (I think I needed to enable write mode but havent tried again). Source: over 1 year ago

• Remote, secure, high-resolution remote desktop access.

  ThinLinc is free for up to 5 concurrent users (users logged in at same time on same domain) and has a license fee if you need more users. So, you can test it to see if it meets your needs. Here's a sample of what I'm doing (I can even play games (OpenGL) on it, hardware accelerated) - https://www.reddit.com/r/homelab/comments/qkrhv6/i_shared_the_better_computer_at_home_with_my/ - and there are other usecases at...

• Any good Linux alternatives to teradici and splashtop remote?

  I was going to recommend ThinLinc https://cendio.com but its server part is also for Linux. You could try TigerVNC (Cendio is one of the TigerVNC's maintainers) and TigerVNC works on windows... There are other VNCs client/server also. MeshCentral is another alternative already suggested :D. Source: over 2 years ago

• Question: Remote Access Solution

  ThinLinc (cendio.com) would help you... It's based on TigerVNC, but by default each user gets its own full desktop session when connecting remotely and can also resume later from somewhere else. Its picture quality and responsivness are great even on lower bandwidth/higher latency connections. Source: over 2 years ago

• Thin Client recommendations

  If you ever want to change your main servers to Linux, there's a software called ThinLinc from Cendio (cendio.com) that can also provide full remote desktop for your thinclients. It's free for up to 5 simultaneously connected users and its licences are sold based on simultaneously connected users, so, maybe it'd be a lot cheaper to have a Linux server machine (free) and pay for a number of simultaneously connected...

• Is there a Linux equivalent of Remote Desktop Services?

  It can be downloaded at cendio.com and it's free for up to 5 simultaneously connected users per domain... Since you mentioned 4 people, you're still good to use it for free with all four people simultaneously connected. If you need to increase the number of simultaneous users, its price is also lower than windows rdp CALs... (and believe me, it works a lot better than RDP!). Source: over 2 years ago
