Alternative to Dameware

A[L]C · 6 Dec 2006 at 11:03

Hi,

We currently use dameware at work.... its not the best of programs so we are looking for an alternative.

Can anyone recommend any progs?

I've never used dameware but how about Windows TS? or Logmein?

TightVNC
UltraVNC

VNC wouldnt really be suitable as afaik it doesnt have remote install options. We have 1200 pcs so logmein would be too expensive I believe.

If I remember Ultra VNC offers remote install

We have all started experiencing the program hanging on initializing when trying to connect. Its becoming a right pain! Have tried reinstalling etc etc.

Logmein has a free version, which is free to business use as well.

Great program, but quite expensive if I remember correctly.
