Help us choose the next big feature

Just tried Remote Assistant for the first time today and it looks like it’s going to be a great utility. Having tried it out on a couple of different remote systems so far, I can say that the speed/response id very good, much better than a lot of other remote control programs I’ve tried, and up there with TeamViewer and RDP. I’m on a slow internet connection so speed of response is very important to me.

A couple of features I’d like to see added are:

  1. Multiple sessions to different hosts.
  2. Auto-resizing of window to match the host display.

So far, I’m impressed. Keep up the good work guys, this product sector could really do with a well featured, well priced alternative product to shake it up a bit.

android app would be great

[reply=“Mark Peterson;1364”] Hi Mark, we have the support for mobile devices on the roadmap and will implement it in future. Thank you for the suggestion.

Please have multiple displays work both ways. I don’t always need to see all the monitors (although it’s nice) on the computer I remote in to, but it’s very hard to work on a one display computer when I have 4 monitors and everything is squeezed into one small monitor and it’s hard to find open programs because they are way to one side of the host computer. I have all this wasted desktop space but can’t utilize when I use unattended access to my work computer. Remote desktop is best but this would be a great second choice when RD is unavailable for one reason or another.

[reply=“KimofAZ;1418”] Noted. I filed this to R&D

Possibility to disable User Account Control.

Other features i’d also like to see are

  1. Show if the Remote Computer(s) is/are “online/offline”
  2. Easier way to Switch between Multiple Monitors (Say using the Arrow Key or an Icon)
  3. Save “Auto Hide” setting. it becomes pinned all the time and needs to be enabled every session

[reply=“yodavader;2124”], thanks noted.

The first one will be a feature of the paid version of Remote Assistant. Since we’re at it, would you like to have a web portal where all the computers are shown online/offline - or will it suffice for you to have it indicated in the RA client itself?

The other two I’ve filed as enhancement requests.

I would rather have it in the RA Client itself. that way more usable..
