CloudBerry Remote Assistant

CloudBerry Remote Assistant can be used to control computers remotely, which is quite useful for when you want to help someone with certain issues. What makes this particular piece of software shine is how easy it makes it to establish connections and assume control over other machines. You only need to know an ID and a password and the application will do the rest.

Installing CloudBerry Remote Assistant should take only a few seconds, even on slower machines. It works on all popular Windows platforms and it doesn't ask for any special tools or services. Also, you don't have to sacrifice too much RAM or processing power to run it.

The software assigns a unique ID to your computer and it also generates a four-number password each time you run it. They are displayed on a clean and simple user interface, where you can find a set of input fields. If you wish to control another computer, you only need to type in its ID and password in the input fields and click a button.

It is also possible to generate an invitation link, which is a good alternative to sending an ID and password over a chat application, because the link becomes invalid after a set amount of time. Another useful security feature is the possibility of encrypting the traffic between computers.

Depending on how Remote Assistant is set up on the other end, you may have to wait for someone to allow your connection or you may be able to connect immediately. Also, the software can be set to allow you to view the remote desktop and nothing else or to take full control.

Once you are connected to a remote computer, you can control it as if you were right in front of it. Besides interacting with everything on the remote desktop, you can bring up a chat window, if you want to exchange messages with the person in front of the other computer. Inbound and outbound connections can be found on the main user interface, and you can change the permissions for each connected user.

Viewing and controlling other computers over a distance can be done in just a few seconds, with only a few clicks, thanks to CloudBerry Remote Assistant's straightforward functionality.
