Logmein Free soon to be cancelled

[akimba]

Hi All

I have been using logmein.com Free version for ages to get on to my home server from work but it has come up with Logmein free is going to end on 28/01/2014 and that I can continue to use logmein if I pay $49.

What's another FREEE alternative to this, I have full int access at work but me home doesn't have a static ip so don't want to setup a nat on router for RDP or anything.

If you used something like dyndns on the router you could always use that in conjunction with a RD Gateway maybe? Tends to get through most firewalls I've seen so far?

Another alternative is TeamViewer?

I think TightVNC is free but as I rely on remote tools for connecting with clients I have a paid for licence with Teamviewer, they also have a free version (as above).

Teamviewer Free it is then ;-)

That's a bummer, been using logmein for years.

Are you really happy to share even more information about yourself with Google?

[purpleanimal23]

I have an android phone and use chrome as my primary browser, waze for satnav sometimes and along with gmail they already know everything they could possibly.

Me and Bertroot migrated from Logmein to Google Chrome Remote Desktop this week. Seems to do the job.

I went with Teamviewer

I used to use logmein a lot a few years back. Since then I had issues with it not connecting to some PC's, or working correctly in some browsers. I preffered it over teamviewer at the time as team viewer seemed poor quality with remote desktop.

But it's file sharing app made me change over and now I don't use logmein at all. The new teamviewer is great, and I wouldn't be without it now. Seems logme in got to big for themselves perhaps.

I will have to try Google Chrome Remote Desktop and see how it goes. As above, google will have all the data on me already, plus IMO its better to hide in plain sight
