Desktop sharing tools are computer programs that work to simplify, unify, streamline, and otherwise facilitate access, usage, communication and many more between different users of a network or corporation. This is a web-based application which is also available for free. Disadvantage of the free version is that you can’t transfer files over the software. It is only needed to install clients to the PCs to be managed. See the links of Desktop sharing tools listed below. Desktop sharing is a general name for technologies and products that allow distant access and remote collaboration on a person's PC desktop through a graphical Terminal emulator. Remote log-in permits users to access to their own desktop while being physically away from their computer. Systems that support the X Window System, naturally Unix-based ones, have this ability "built in". Windows versions starting from Windows 2000 have a built-in solution for remote entrée as well in the form of Remote Desktop Protocol and previous to that in the form of Microsoft’s NetMeeting. The open source product VNC provides cross-platform key for remote log-in. The shortcomings of the above solutions are their inability to work outside of a single NAT environment. A number of commercial products defeat this limits by tunneling the traffic through rendezvous servers. Real-time group effort is much a bigger area of desktop sharing use, and it has gained recent momentum as an important component of rich multimedia communications. Desktop sharing, when used in conjunction with other components of multimedia communications such as audio and video, creates the notion of virtual space where people can meet, socialize and work together. On the bigger scale, this part is also referred as web conferencing.
