About Chrome Remote Desktop

Chrome Remote Desktop is Google's remote access service. You sign in with a Google account and connect to your own computers, or help someone else, through a browser-based interface, so the same service works across different operating systems.

It is aimed at simple personal remote access rather than managed IT support. It suits people who want to reach a home or work computer occasionally without setting up a VPN or paying for a remote support product.

Strengths

  • Free with no paid tier
  • Used through a web browser
  • Works across different operating systems

Limitations

  • Requires a Google account
  • Fewer management features than dedicated remote support tools
  • Connections run through Google's service
