DeskRoll

Solving an issue on a computer personally is much easier than guiding an inexperienced user through the procedure, over the phone or via an instant messenger. Remote control applications are the perfect solution for fixing computers over a distance, but a user may not be skilled enough to set one up on his own computer. DeskRoll was designed with beginners in mind. With this simple and lightweight application, granting remote access to other users can be done with a single click. It gives you the possibility of controlling one or more remote machines, from anywhere in the world, on a web browser.

The application's trial version can be used for 30 days and it has the same unrestricted features as the full version. It takes only a few seconds to download the setup file and install its components on a computer, so technical support workers can start helping their clients right away. Besides installing the application, you also need to create an online account.

You don't have to install anything if you have no intention of controlling your own computer remotely. Creating an online account is sufficient, because everything can be done from your preferred web browser. To control a remote computer, you have to install the application on that machine and link it with your online account. The procedure is very simple, so it can be carried out even by novice users.

Each time you log into your online account, you will receive a unique code, which can be used to link a computer to the account. All you have to do is copy the code and paste it on DeskRoll's desktop interface. Once linked, the computer will appear on the web interface, where you only need to click it in order to start the remote control. Computers can be unlinked at any time, from both ends. All it takes is to click a button on the desktop or web interface.

While controlling a remote computer, you may select a series of options, on the left side of the web interface, to adjust the connection speed, retrieve a huge amount of information about the remote computer, transfer files, send keyboard commands, initiate a chat session and more. The best part is that you can start controlling a computer right away, without having to wait for any confirmation from the other end.
