  • Chrome Remote Desktop looks pretty slick. But if you want great File Transfer features, the ability to act on UAC dialogs, and the ability to reboot the remote computer and access it after the reboot, look into GoSupportNow.

  • Did you try AmmyyAdmin? It is one of the most popular app for remote monitoring, administrating and help.One of the main advantage is that it works fast enough even on the slowest 3G
    connection.

  • Apart from Chrome RDP, you may try on premise remote support solutions like: R-HUB remote support servers. It works from behind your corporate firewall, hence better security.

  • Check out AEROADMIN, we use it use more than three years at our office. Easy, and most importantly safe program for employees monitoring. Advantages, high speed, reliable security system.

  • My favorite alternative is LiteManager for remote access, great analog for teamviewer! with free version.
