Many potential customers of Remote Desktop Control software ask the same question:
What is the difference between Direct Connection and Online Gateway?
Here are brief descriptions for each edition:
Direct Connection edition fits to work in local area network via TCP/IP protocol, when all computers are members of the same network. It is possible to use Direct Connection over Internet if the IP address of remote computer is available and routers/firewalls are configured to allow remote access sessions. Direct Connection license is not time limited and there are no recurring charges.
Online Gateway edition can access computer either via local network or via the Internet. Special gateway server allows connecting to remote PC behind firewall or router, when remote computer has dynamic IP, in cases of complicated network topology, when the user on the other side has no knowledge about networks. This edition contains all features of Direct Connection plus access to web based account on the online gateway server. Online Gateway license is a subscription, so annual payments are required.
So the short answer is:
Direct Connection edition is for local networks and computer geeks only. All other should use Online Gateway.
New 2.5 version of Remote Desktop Control software has been released. Following changes appear:
My best friend lives in 2000 kilometers from me. We meet each other once a year at best. And only Internet allows us to be aware of each other's everyday news and problems.
My friend works as a tutor for a well-known language school; her students live all over the world and communicate with her via Internet. If something is wrong with her computer her work gets locked. I'm a programmer, so my friend considers me to be a computer genius and often asks for assistance in setting up new software, editing documents and images, etc.
Usually I'm able to help her remotely, without seeing what's happening on her computer. But sometimes I really need to have an access to her computer.
Once she called me asking to help with fixing her browser. Every time she opened a web page, a huge advertisement was displayed over the page and she wasn't able to access neither search engine to find a solution, no her web-based workspace. It was definitely a virus.
Her antivirus didn't help. So I decided to have a closer look at her computer. We tried built-in Windows Remote Assistance but without any success - she used a router and there was no way to connect to her computer directly. Some research brought me to REMOTE-DESKTOP-CONTROL.COM website. They claimed that their system could reach any remote computer, even those behind firewalls, routers and having dynamic IPs. 30-day fully functional trial was enough to fix everything on my friend's computer.
I've downloaded and installed Remote Desktop Control's Admin Module on my computer and sent the installer to my friend via Skype. She installed Host Module. I've created an account in Internet Gateway server, provided my account name and password to my friend - and that was it!
I was able to fully control her computer, check and edit the system registry, use System Configuration Utility, manage drivers and devices, I was even able to reboot her computer remotely! No action was needed from my friend's side. So while she was watching her favorite TV show I fixed her computer and she was able to assist her students again.
We kept this remote software on our computers and even purchased a license: Now any time she needs help with her computer, I just connect to it using Remote Desktop Control. This saves us a lot of time and typing, and we can spend more time chatting about more pleasant things then computer problems.

You are an IT person and you all day long you are buzzed with the help requests. Eternal strolls to the neighbor room, crosses to another department or marathons to another building are going to make you soon a champion in track and field.
What's really annoying is that most often you have to rush 10 stores just to find that "the big problem we have here" appears to be a cinch solved in 2 clicks.

Your beloved granny has bought the latest laptop. Now she surfs the Internet and it looks like she will soon become a hacker? You communicate with her over e-mail more and more often, receive dozens of mails from her every day and seriously consider installing a messenger? What will you do? Send her instructions on how to download the installation package, where and how to fill out the registration form, create an account, find you in the system and create a new contact? I am afraid she has not quite advanced THAT far.
Send your granny an e-mail with a remote access software installation package attached. After she installs the program, simply connect to her computer and set up and configure everything as desired. Moreover, your granny will be able to observe you configuring the messenger, creating an account (and more) and thus, learn what buttons to click on! It is strongly recommended that you let your granny know beforehand that the moving mouse cursor and self-opening windows are not a virus, poltergeist or Voodoo magic, but it is you, her beloved grandson, who has connected from another city and is tuning her PC.
