HI Simon,
I looked at their website - is it just an RDC replacement or what's the reason to use it? more secure? less licensing fees? does not require an RDC server?

Thanks,
Albert

In discussion with them, they had talked about closing down their RDC server because it "opens a security hole because [they say] when the RDC session is open, then anything from your desktop could find its way to our servers".

In a sense, the program would open screen into their RDC server but nothing can really pass between my PC and their server other than what I type. I would have to transfer updates via another mechanism but I could tell them that nothing else can move across the wire.
