IMO a very good idea. Also when comparing to other remote access softwares it allows the user to setup a connection without forwarding ports on the router.

Just a quick correction - we do not have a paid version today so the session history is available to anyone with a CrossLoop Account for free. Matt – Thanks for the detailed post.

Recently we tried Yakkle (http://www.yakkle.com) and have been drifting to making it our preferred tool. The ability to have a tool that provided voice and group desktop sharing and was able to drop right into our existing jabber/gmail based IM solution has been key for us.

That is incorrect. Convenos Meeting Center does indeed allow for remote control and desktop sharing. I noticed that this article mentiones the Convenos option does not allow access for desktop.

You can download Yoics for free at http://www.yoics.com. It comes pre-configured with RealVNC, but can use any VNC program or Windows Remote desktop. It also come with an easy way to remote access/share folders & files. Sorry, should have included a link. You can download Yoics for free at http://www.yoics.com.

I'm at the company, so clearly biased, but Yoics basically makes network management as easy as using Instant messaging.

Since this software is popular among people who provide tech support remotely, CrossLoop (with all the profiles and ratings) can possibly create an elance like marketplace for hiring tech support professionals. That could be a good revenue stream if they have enough users.

I trialed all except for Convenos and eventually settle on Yugma. The ability to hook up with people cross different OS's is important to me. Plus I think it's really easy to use. Refreshing. Good review. I trialed all except for Convenos and eventually settle on Yugma. The ability to hook up with people cross different OS’s is important to me. Plus I think it’s really easy to use.
