This week’s Follow Friday recipient is…
FREE REMOTE CONTROL OF YOUR PC OR MAC. ANYTIME, ANYWHERE.
LogMeIn is a great web and mobile application that allows you to log into your computer from anywhere with an internet connection.
This is a great option for:
- small business owners that have a main computer but want to use their main computer while on the road
- logging into your home computer while at school, work, or at a hotel
- accessing that one file you forgot
- what would you use it for?
You might be asking yourself if it’s safe or how is this better than Remote Desktop, VNC, or some of the other options. Well… each option has its pros and cons. The reason I like it is that I just need a web browser or an internet connection for my iPad and I have full access!
Here’s a little more info about the features that LogMeIn has to offer:
- You can use the free option, like me, to access your computer from anywhere
- Use your mobile device – I use my iPhone or my iPad
- If your computer is asleep you can use the Wake on LAN option – I haven’t tried this one yet…
- It uses 256-bit SSL encryption
They also offer other great products for small business owners too – Himachi, join.me, and some others.
