Remote Administrator

Remote Administrator is an award winning Internet Tool that enables you to work on a remote computer from you own computer, and with as much speed and efficiency as possible. You will see a remote computer screen in the window of your computer. Your mouse and a keyboard are transferred to the remote computer. Now you can work with the remote computer, as if you are sitting in right front of it. Remote Administrator has a lot of options you will love, so throw the imitations away. This is a keeper.

   You've got a laptop computer. You've got a desktop computer. You're away from the computer at home when you suddenly realize you need a file stored on it. So you jump back in your car, say a quick prayer, and roar off down the highway doing Mach 3 hoping you'll be able to get it and get back in time. That's one way to deal with that particular situation but let's back up a moment and take a look at a somewhat different option. Instead of killing yourself trying to go home and physically snatch up the file, Remote Administrator lets you run your home computer like you were actually there, even though you're currently sitting at the drive through window at Taco Bell. You can see the other computers screen and work with it as if you were physically there but you know have the advantage of doing it all by remote control. Open up some spreadsheet, copy the data and enjoy your Mexican pizza in peace. What could be better? (perhaps if they didn't water there soda down so damn much but that's another story).

   Remote Administrator serves a number of useful job roles. Beyond just the usual role of accessing a home/work PC while on the go, Remote Administrator is really helpful for dishing out technical support. Have you ever had someone close to you (parents, relatives, etc) buy a brand new computer then end up hassling you every five minutes with phone calls for help? It can be torture trying to explain how to do even the most basic tasks over the phone. You know exactly what needs to be done but getting the person on the other end of the phone line to do what you're saying can be an exercise in futility. Save yourself some headaches by installing Remote Administrator. If a problem crops up just hook into their computer through Remote Administrator and do it yourself. Makes life easier for everyone involved.

   Remote Administrator is very useful in the network at the office. Instead of walking down and working on each machine individually, the System Administrator can just stay at his/her desk and do it all by remote. Using Remote Administrator is simple because it's nothing more than a window with the other computer's desktop inside (you can also run it full screen on your computer if you prefer). Just go about your business like you normally would, there aren't really any major directions to learn to instructions to read. The hardest part of the whole thing is the installation and that is for the most part a no-brainer. Performance wise, Remote Administrator is darn good.
