PROXY Pro 8 remote access software, with one-time license fees, offers the convenience and ease-of-use of hosted services like GotomyPC or Logmein, without recurring monthly fees. And, over 2 or 3 years, PROXY Pro's one-time license fees will end up being as much as 50% lower than total cost of hosted services.
With hosted services, you must send your security credentials and screen data outside your network, even if you are trying to connect to a machine in the next office. With PROXY Pro remote access software, all your security credentials and screen data can remain inside your network, under your control and supervision.
| Features | Hosted Service Concerns | PROXY Pro Solutions |
|---|---|---|
| Pricing | Expensive; recurring monthly fees; no ownership of software assets. | PROXY Pro charges one-time license fees that are up to 50% lower than 3-year total cost of ownership of hosted services. In addition, once you buy the licenses, you own the software assets in perpetuity. |
| Connectivity | Supports connections to PCs inside and outside your network; however, security credentials and screen data must sent outside your network even for connections to PCs in the office next door. | PROXY Pro remote access software supports seamless connections to PCs inside and outside your network like hosted services, but keeps security credentials and screen data (for PCs inside your network) within your network. |
| Discovery | Supports automatic discovery of remote PCs but requires PCs inside your network to report to a foreign server outside your network. | PROXY Pro supports automatic discovery of PCs inside and outside your network, but keeps security credentials and screen data (for PCs inside your network) within your network. |
| Performance | Performance can be adversely affected by bandwidth problems. | PROXY Pro remote access software is optimized for speed and responsiveness; connectivity to internal PCs not impacted by bandwidth issues; bandwidth throttling options optimize performance over WAN and dialup links. |
| Security | You must send security credentials and screen data outside your network, even if you are trying to connect to a PC in your own network. | PROXY Pro allows you to connect to machines inside and outside your network with ease-of-use of a hosted service, without exposing your security credentials or screen data outside your network. |
| Screen Recording | Hosted services do not support scalable screen recording. | PROXY Pro enables simultaneous screen recording of large numbers of remote PCs, inside or outside your network, and with or without an active remote desktop connection. |
| Sharing | Hosted services do not support screen sharing. | PROXY Pro enables one or more technicians to connect to a remote PC simultaneously; perfect for collaboration and training. |
| Management | Hosted services do not support remote manangement. | PROXY Pro features a full range of management tools to view and repair configuration settings on remote PC without disrupting currently logged-on user. |
