Frequently Asked Questions about Remote Desktop

    What are the benefits of remote access over using online backup to access my files?

    Online backup services like Carbonite allow you to store files online that you can then access from another computer. Remote access allows you to do much more. You can actually control your host PC, meaning you can make edits on a document, change settings, perform maintenance, or transfer files.
