Finding the Perfect Remote Desktop Fit: Why RustDesk Beats AnyDesk for Me

After using AnyDesk for a couple of weeks, it didn't fit my needs. The license for the features I need is just to expensive. So, after a some research I moved to RustDesk, and it got all I need.

RustDesk is easy to use, and with a cleaner user interface that allows me to use it effectively. The best thing, is that my use of RustDesk means I don't have to buy a license since I don't need the features that come with it. As such, in both pricing and feature set RustDesk is a far better fit.

After a week of using RustDesk daily, I can say it is quite a good option. For me, the fact that it is open-source software, and it works on Linux Mint, RustDesk the more attractive option. Specially since I prefer to avoid proprietary software when there is an open-source option that works at least as well.

Honestly, RustDesk and Remmina have become my remote desktop apps of choice.  While their use cases are a bit different, I would choose any of them depending on what I need to do. In the case of RustDesk, that is works on Windows and macOS too gives it an edge for me over the apps of the competition.
