Responsable de TI Information Technology and Services Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Es la mejor solución hasta ahora, frente a AnyDesk" October 20, 2025 5.0 He estado utilizándolo estos últimos meses para conexión remota de soporte técnico y me ha facilitado la vida el poder tener una alternativa a las conocidas y que tenga conectividad con Mac. Pros La compatibilidad con Mac es lo mejor. Anteriormente utilizaba AnyDesk por su compatibilidad con Apple Mac pero después de sus múltiples actualizaciones y requerimientos, he optado por esta herramienta que me permite hacer lo que necesito: soporte remoto. Cons Tal vez algunas herramientas como carga y descarga de archivos, desde y hacia la máquina remota, pero eso no compromete el buen funcionamiento del programa para su conexión. Switched from [AnyDesk](https://www.capterra.com/p/149595/AnyDesk/) Por las constantes actualizaciones y por los múltiples requerimientos que hoy en día se necesitan para poder tener una cuenta con ellos. Además de la compatibilidad con Mac, algunas veces las características no funcionan adecuadamente. Review Source Alessandro L.

Funcional, simples de usar, estável e, como falei, com excelentes recursos. Um programa realmente essencial! Pros Excelente programa com ótimos recursos. Muito fácil de usar! Área de transferência comum e troca de arquivos funcionam perfeitamente. Também é possível trabalhar com múltiplos monitores! Cons Às vezes a conexão remota cai e volta na sequência. É algo que pode melhorar, mas nem chega a atrapalhar o trabalho.

Phd student Research Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Stable experience" February 16, 2026 5.0 It works reliably, and does what is promised. The application can still be improved in the feature with minor upgrades, while still keeping the minimalistic functionality. Pros It is stable and reliable. We use it with roughly 10 people and have not encountered major problems yet. Cons The pop-ups to update the application can be annoying. It could add a feature, where moving the mouse, moves the window. This is helpful when the PC you're controlling has a much larger pixel count, then the screen you're viewing it on.

And if they make the connection little more stable it will be great to use. Pros Unless like in Anydesk or TeamViewer Just by clicking the link we share is enough to control the system. And it is very simple to use but it saves my time a lot. Cons Not like that. But it lagged at some points and that also happened very rarely. Reason for choosing HelpWire It is simple to use.
