A paid remote desktop service with broad device support and practical access tools.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
GoToMyPC is remote desktop software for individuals, teams, and larger organizations that need to connect to Windows or Mac computers from a browser, desktop, or mobile device. It supports both attended and unattended access, allowing users to work with files, applications, programs, and network resources on a host computer. Core capabilities include file transfer, remote printing, multi-monitor support, guest invitations for temporary access, mobile apps, session diagnostics, encryption, and two-factor authentication.
The published plans show a seven-day free trial and paid monthly pricing per computer. The Personal plan costs $44 per computer per month and includes one user, support for 1–20 computers, unlimited remote access, file transfer and sync, remote printing, and multi-monitor support. Pro adds unlimited users, shared device access, account and user administration, usage monitoring, and central billing for 2–50 computers. Corporate is listed at $28 per computer per month for unlimited users and 5+ computers, with multiple administrators, remote deployment, granular group and user settings, and single sign-on.
Platform coverage is a practical strength: connections are available through the web, Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, and Android. Security controls include a 256-bit AES end-to-end encrypted data stream and two-factor authentication. Setup effort depends on the plan: Personal and Pro require setup at the host computer, while Corporate supports remote deployment. GoToMyPC suits buyers who want straightforward paid computer access with file handling, printing, mobile connectivity, and administrative options at higher tiers. Buyers seeking a product centered on recording, integrations, or a free plan should consider a different remote desktop category fit.
