TurboVNC

If you work implies handling projects from multiple computers, you probably understand the importance of having a reliable way to access them remotely.

While there are several tools that can help you connect to other PCs, some of them are over-complicating the process and require extensive configuration. TurboVNC was initially developed as a fork for TightVNC and is one of the applications that can help you achieve adequate results quickly and without effort.

Please be aware that this application requires you to have working Internet connections on the computers you want to work with.

This program comes with a minimalistic design that encompasses a handful of intuitive functions, thus making it possible even for less experienced users to benefit from its capabilities.

However, understanding certain remote connection-related concepts might come in handy in this situation, since some of its features are somewhat technical.

Accessing the target computer remotely can be easily done by typing the corresponding IP address and port in the designated field and hitting the Connect button. However, performing this operation requires you to have a running VNC server on the destination computer.

This application also comes with a built-in Listen mode, but during our testing on Windows 10 and 8 systems, we could not establish a connection between the computers. You might need to consider using a different server utility.

You can access a standard configuration menu and adjust various parameters by adjusting values or ticking checkboxes.

Among the customizable values, you can find multiple encoding methods, JPEG compression, image quality, interframe comparison, remote desktop size, clipboard transfer, TCP ports and local cursor shapes.

TurboVNC is a simple application that can help you connect to other computers remotely via VNC. It comes with a simple user interface, packs a few intuitive functions and also features a straightforward configuration menu.
