A fast remote desktop app for Windows, macOS and Linux, with terminal access in recent releases. Its free edition ended with version 10, so the Personal Edition and Network subscription are paid, and a 7-day trial is available. A free, open-source VNC server and viewer under GPL-2.0, packaged by major Linux distributions and available for Windows and macOS. It is software rather than a hosted service, so you set up network access yourself.
