Anydesk? I'm impressed!

Have anyone of you guys ever tried anydesk, a teamviewer/vnc alternative? I used it some hours ago to a remote windows installation and I can say, I am impressed...
My home connection is a simple adsl with low specs (i am far away from a dslam) and can only reach speeds of 6-7M/b download and 850 K/b upload. I wanted a windows desktop to do some remote tasks just like it was a local computer (dtp/video editing) and with dsl, the existing solutions like teamviewer, tightvnc and rdp could not produce a local-like performance of the desktop.
Well, I installed anydesk (it's free edition) and, what can I say, I am impressed! For basic tasks (open and work to an office suite along with photoshop and QXpress for testing) was almost like working on my home desktop, lo lagging, full screen and resolution. I also opened youtube video and the remote desktop performed very well compared to the other solutions.
But that's a test for some hours. Did anyone try it for longer term? If yes, can you share your experience? I am willing to use it for some dtp, to be able to have the exact same computer to do tasks from any location occasionally.
Waiting for your shares!

    I have tried it and I loved it!

    Looks faster than TeamViewer btw.

  • Question how much links can you create to other pcs/win server/compatible pcs

    And now its quality will get worse as thousands of LETers move to it.

    What do you mean? It's a platform for remote desktop (aka 1 to 1 pc). Free edition, I think, allows to have a concurrent connection to one remote pc (when teamviewer allows multiple concurrent connections)

    Support file transfer?
    But doesnt have android client.

  • It crashes when I remote from Linux to Windows, not the other way around. Still got room for improvement.

    for multiple os support and for major features, TV is still the king (I have it in over a dozen of my pc's around locations for unattended access), but for working in a remote computer as a server, like it were your real local desktop, in my today's testing, seem anydesk is far beyond the competition...

    Servers from anydesk or teamviewer are just for the initial contact of the 2 computers. The further communication is peer to peer.

    And logmein is not free anymore...
