CrossLoop is a free secure screen sharing utility designed for people of all technical skill levels with ease of use in mind.
Now, you may be thinking CrossLoop is just another ‘regular old VNC alternative that offers little or no features’ - that’s where you’re wrong. CrossLoop has been designed with ease of use in mind for the beginner and advanced users. It offers an easy setup, and once you’ve got the program installed, simply click a few buttons and your friend anywhere in the world can connect to your computer to share control of your computer and view your screen, as you can view your friend’s screen. CrossLoop can let you do anything on your friend’s computer (and vice versa) almost like you were sitting in front of his/her computer. It has a wide range of applications including remote assistance, remote instruction, training and real-time collaboration. No settings need to be changed on your firewall our router, it’s essentially install and go.
CrossLoop is based on TightVNC, and is powered by the CrossLoop VIP Tunnel. The Tunnel is a secure P2P data transmission system. All messages and any other traffic sent through the tunnel is encrypted on CrossLoop servers to ensure maximum user privacy, as well as the traffic is encrypted at both endpoints using Blowfish 128-bit encryption. The creators of CrossLoop have designed the program with the end-user in mind.
Being a newly converted CrossLoop user after switching from VNC, it has replaced my existing VNC installations because it is so easy to use, with just having to enter a few details before I can be using another computer on my home network. It has maximised my productivity because I no longer have to move between computers.
If you like what you hear, I’m sure you won’t be disappointed, so I recommend you visit the CrossLoop Site now and recommend it to a friend so you can collaborate on your next project or provide support to your not-so tech savvy friend.
