ExpertCitys GoToMyPC Corporate 3.0 enables secure remote desktop control and access without the need for client software.
GoToMyPC Corporate is a service that allows remote users to access their PCs over the Web, without the need for software such as Symantecs pcAnywhere 10.5.
The GoToMyPC Web site provides a centralized administration point that allows IT managers to perform tasks such as running usage reports and managing access accounts.
GoToMyPC Corporate is priced per PC on a monthly or yearly payment plan. Licenses start at $24.95 per PC per month, and there is a one-time activation fee of $20 to $50, depending on the number of PCs enrolled.
Setting up remote access on my host computer was surprisingly easy. I logged on to gotomypc.com to register my host Windows XP desktop, then downloaded the GoToMyPC agent that runs on the host system.
As an administrator, I added users and gave them permission to access the registered PCs using the Web site. Using a laptop, I was able to quickly connect to the host PC with an Internet connection using the GoToMyPC viewer.
GoToMyPC Corporate secures remote sessions using SSL and AES encryption and locks out access after several failed password log-in attempts.
