About:
AnyDesk is a remote desktop software that enables secure and responsive connections to computers over the internet. It utilizes a proprietary video codec to deliver low-latency screen sharing even on low-bandwidth networks. The tool is widely used for IT support, telecommuting, and accessing personal devices from anywhere.
Key Features:
  • Low-latency remote access with proprietary DeskRT codec
  • Cross-platform support including macOS, Windows, Linux, and mobile
  • Secure connections with RSA 2048 asymmetric key exchange
  • File transfer, remote reboot, and unattended access capabilities
Use Cases:
  • Providing remote IT support and troubleshooting for clients
  • Working from home by accessing office computers
  • Personal use for accessing home computers while traveling
Alternatives:
  • teamviewer – Similar feature set but often considered heavier and more restrictive for commercial use
  • microsoft-remote-desktop – Native macOS solution, excellent for local networks but less convenient for internet-based connections
  • vnc – Open standard protocol requiring manual configuration, generally less optimized for performance out of the box
