San Jose, Calif., Jan. 07, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Splashtop Inc., the worldwide leader in remote access, collaboration, and remote support solutions, now officially supports remote access to Linux computers through Splashtop’s award-winning remote desktop solutions.
Subscribers of Splashtop’s core business products can now remotely access and control their Linux computers from any other Windows, Mac, iOS, Android, and Chromebook device. Through the Splashtop Business App, users can initiate a remote session to their desired Linux computer with just a few clicks.
Remote Desktop for Linux with Splashtop
Splashtop makes remote access to unattended computers possible with the Splashtop Streamer. Once the Splashtop Streamer is installed on a computer, a user can remotely connect to that computer at any time. In addition to now supporting Linux, the Splashtop Streamer can be also installed and enable remote access to Windows, Mac, and Android devices.
While in a remote session, users can take control of their Linux computers in real time, open any files or applications, and provide support. Splashtop provides faster and more secure remote access to Linux computers when compared to VNC programs.

Unattended remote access to Linux computers is available in the following Splashtop solutions:
- Splashtop Business Access – for business professionals and small teams who need remote access to their computers from any computer, tablet, or smartphone device.
