| Description | AnyDesk is a remote desktop application that lets you connect to and control another computer from wherever you are. Whether you need to access your office machine from home, provide tech support to a coworker, or manage devices across multiple locations, AnyDesk gives you a fast, lightweight connection that works across Windows, Mac, Linux, iOS, and Android. The tool is built around four main use cases: remote access to your own devices, providing technical support to others, real-time collaboration (screen sharing, chat, and session recording), and security-focused device management. AnyDesk offers features like end-to-end encryption, two-factor authentication, SSO, and the option to run everything on your own servers instead of the cloud. AnyDesk is trusted by over 200,000 businesses and is a strong alternative to TeamViewer for small businesses that need reliable remote access without paying enterprise prices. Plans start at $23.12/month for a single user (Solo plan), with team plans starting at $39.92/month for up to 20 users. There is no permanent free plan for commercial use, but personal use is free. |

| STOA's Verdict | AnyDesk is a reliable, fast remote desktop tool that punches above its weight for small businesses. If you need to access your office computer from home, provide IT support to your team, or manage devices across locations, it does the job well without the bloated pricing of enterprise alternatives. The Solo plan at $23/month is reasonable for individual use. The main downside is the lack of any AI features and no free tier for business — but for straightforward remote access, it is hard to beat on speed and simplicity. |
