Enjoy secure and fast Remote Access
Unattended Access
Use a password to securely access devices from anywhere, so that the remote session doesn’t have to be accepted manually.
Two-Factor Authentication
Double protect access to the remote device. Use time-based number codes in addition to your Unattended Access password.
Wake-On-LAN
The remote device is in sleep mode and can’t be accessed? Wake it up using a different device and AnyDesk’s Wake-On-LAN feature.
Privacy Mode
If you need to maintain a public computer remotely, for example, a screen in a shopping center, you can turn the screen black and work on it in private.
Mobile Device Management
Integrate AnyDesk with an MDM solution to manage and maintain large numbers of mobile devices from one central point.
REST-API
Integrate AnyDesk into software products you already use for process automation or data collection and get one step closer to the interconnection of the IoT.

Frequently asked questions
Remote Access Software for fast and safe connections
Unattended vs. Interactive Access
Accessing your workstation via password and remote controlling machines is what we call Unattended Access. However, connecting to co-workers and giving Remote Support while they are present at their computer or collaborating on projects together means someone is present on the remote device and interacting. Therefore, it is called Interactive Access.
More than just Remote Access
There are a plethora of different use cases for a Remote Desktop Tool like AnyDesk apart from simple Remote Access, IoT and Remote Maintenance. IT employees can help their users by directly connecting to their devices and solve problems, employees can not only Work from Home but from anywhere in the world and still feel like they are sitting in front of their work PC.
Why is AnyDesk so fast?
Our proprietary DeskRT video codec allows a refresh rate of 60 fps. That means AnyDesk’s remote connections have an incredibly low latency – imperceptible to the human eye. Therefore, remote connections with AnyDesk are seamless and stable, even at low bandwidths. AnyDesk is the ideal Remote Desktop Solution for areas with poor internet connectivity.
