From Our Happy Customers

I switched over to Splashtop recently from LogMeIn Pro as I was experiencing reliability issues and their customer support didn’t seem at all receptive to fixing it. I trialed about six alternatives, and Splashtop and TeamViewer were the best by far. However, TeamViewer is more expensive. Splashtop was next best on features and far more sensibly priced.
