I have used CrossLoop since it was in private beta. It is the best free remote desktop sharing and control program that I have used and better than many programs that cost the user. It is easy and quick to install and use, usually about 2 minutes. On occasion remote Vista desktops can create glitches for remote control but that is usually transitory.

Thanks to the software team who gave us this excellent piece of freeware. The ease of use, convenience and simplicity make Cross Loop a pleasure to use. Would love to see file transfers in their future versions of this program. Thanks again, Cross Loop

This is a simple and extremely easy to use for non-tech people. And works very well. Be nice if it had a file transferring thing built in but, even though it works well. Maybe in a future version they will include a file transferring program built in. Highly recommended.. Especially if you do work on other peoples computers like I do saves you a trip .

I currently use the free version of LogMeIn to help others out with their computer problems so I thought I would give this a go as it appeared on SnapFiles. It is easy to set up and it works very well. The documentation is good. Not much else to add but thanks to the developer(s) for the effort they have put in to make the a useful product.

I have been using copilot.com for remote control. Copilot is very similar to CrossLoop. Both are based on VNC technology but Copilot charges $5 for 24 hours of use. I hope CrossLoop keeps theirs free. It looks like they may start charging for premium features at some point.

This is a front-end to VNC freeware, thereby making it far more user friendly.

As a freelance PC repairman, other RD solutions were to complicated for the customer, plus firewall configuration on top of that. This software makes it easier for me now, no more driving for hours for a simple fix. No configuration, simple installation. A+

CrossLoop is the simplest functional remote-control package out there. An absolute must-have for remotely assisting newbies and anyone who Just Wants You to Make It Work. If you can accept the limited functions (eg, currently no file xfer) and the need for the remote user to be present to establish a connection, CrossLoop just plain works. Very highly recommended for easy, basic remote control.
