ShowMyPC review
A low-cost remote access tool that also covers meetings, support, file transfer, and recording.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Sep 2026
ShowMyPC combines browser-based remote desktop access, screen sharing, remote support, and remote meetings in one service. It is aimed at individuals managing home or office computers, small businesses, IT help desks, managed service providers, educators, and enterprise teams. Viewers can join through a browser without downloading software, while supported environments include Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, Android, and Chromebook access through a web browser. Full-control remote desktop access, unattended access for PCs and servers, chat, annotation, and Windows RDP support extend its use beyond simple screen sharing.
Pricing is structured as freemium, with a free plan and a 14-day free trial. According to the vendor's pricing page, Remote Access — 2 PCs costs $5 per month, Remote Access — 10 PCs costs $10 per month, Remote Access — 20 PCs costs $20 per month, and Remote Access — Select costs $50 per month. Each listed paid tier includes remote access, Windows support, browser viewing, remote desktop support, a shared file folder, and mobile support. The plans give small teams a straightforward way to match the subscription to the number of PCs they manage.
ShowMyPC's strongest distinction is breadth: remote access sits alongside file transfer, shared web folders, remote-session and webcam recording, web conferencing, built-in chat, annotation tools, and two-factor authentication. That combination fits teams that need meetings and support workflows as well as device access. Users seeking only a narrowly focused screen-sharing tool may find the wider feature set unnecessary, while teams managing computers across desktop and mobile environments should find the platform fit more relevant. ShowMyPC is a practical choice for small teams that want remote access and meetings together, but less suitable when the requirement is limited to one simple collaboration function.
