Parallels Access App Reviews

Company said they would investigate this and get back to me. They havent.

By far the best Remote Desktop app in the market. Works really well on my iPhone and iPad. I use it to remote connect to my Mac. The interface is really smooth and intuitive. I used to use TeamViewer, but this beats it on performance and its also way cheaper.

Just wow on how intuitive the gestures and taps are. Great design and planned well. quality software. Steve Jobs would be proud.

Black screen on iPod 5! It doesnt let me login or do anything please help!!!

Will not work at all, i launch it on my iPod and it goes to a black screen

The windows 10 betas were working until 10162! Please fix ASAP.

Works for me for Windows 10 as of 8/11/2015 (following apparent 8/10 upgrade/deployment glitch (be sure to upgrade on both iPad and PC)). Adds the ability to use on iPad in portrait mode, with full PC screen and full on-screen iPad keyboard both visible, without overlapping each other. Does the best job Ive seen of layering a bit of iOS touch interface atop the Windows traditional desktop interface.

Like this app. Use it to access my desktop (at home) from my iPad (when at work.) With El Capitan running on my desktop there are a few issues. Hopefully there will be an update soon.

I cannot stress enough how amazing this little application is. I use it all the time for IT purposes. I used to SSH to all my computers but now I just use this little application for everything. Ive used them all! Team Viewer, log me in, VNC, Google Remote Desktop. Nothing compares to this little app. Also the cost of having it yearly is so cheap! If youre on the fence just get off and do it! Get it!

why fool people and say it is a free app? work 4a week and ask for subscription. I will stick 2team viewer

I am sick and tired of parallels forcing me to upgrade and shell out another $50 every year to keep the software running. They look for every excuse they can to force you to renew and get another version. On their desktop app if you install 3 times they lock you out from the app, and force you to buy again. These guys are sheisty. They used to give this app away free before they figured they could charge for it. Screw you parallels! People, there are free apps that do the same thing as parallels access.

This simply WONT wake your Mac. I have a 2014 MacBook Pro and a 2013 Mac Pro both on El Capitan (with power nap and wake for network access on). Plex can wake the Macs fine, but this refuses to. So frustrated that I just bought a year subscription - PLEASE FIX THIS and my rating will update. Thank you.

Ive tried them all and this one is the best. Sure it costs money but so do a lot of good things in life. You get both modes here: touch and mouse control. The file browser is useful. I like that it works without port forwarding. Its quick enough you can actually watch video remotely. I like how it resizes the screen automatically.

I download this app to my new iPad Pro and it gives me the following error. Cant connect to the parallels access server. I am I suppose to add my Mac if Paralles server is down? Please fix.

Jacked up the resolution on my monitors, putting them out of range so that I couldnt even see anything, had to restart and change the resolution back manually and re enable 3 of my 4 monitors. I am an IT professional and would not recommend this product to ANYONE. Problems aside, the actual remote functionality is horrible. Use teamviewer.

I cant understand why it has such bad reviews, but I find parallels access a great app. It works perfectly , its fast and intuitive.

Works great for accessing mac files as well as your PC virtual machine. I love seeing mac folder favorites as it is on my Mac.

Biggest POS that has ever been on my computer. It shuffles my desktop around and changes the screen resolution every time it runs. Could not get off my computer fast enough!

I have a Mac computer in the office with Parallels Desktop and Windows installed. The Parallels Access keyboard does NOT work when I log in from my iPad and try to use a Windows program (e.g., MS Word for Windows). I contacted support. They seem to be oblivious to the problem, but others have documented it online. Logmein does not have the same problem. It works fine. --- The second problem is that you cannot zoom in on text that is hard to read. The app provides three views. The first two change the resolution of your desktop, but are otherwise ok. The third view allows you to see the full computer screen. But you cant zoom in! Text is too small.

I was hoping this app would be updated to take advantage of the extra screen pixels of the iPad pro, but it hasnt been updated and just scales everything horribly. I love the app otherwise. It just works. Gets through NATs, firewalls, and is dead simple to use. I wish it could start in desktop mode by default instead of app mode.
