Splashtop Business Access (marketed on the current site as Splashtop Remote Access) is high-performance remote-access software — it lets you and your team securely access and control your work computers (Windows, Mac, Linux) from anywhere, using another computer, tablet or phone, as if you were sitting in front of them. Why this matters: remote and hybrid work, plus the simple need to reach a machine you're not physically at, mean people constantly need to get to their office/work computer from elsewhere (home, travel, another device) — to run applications, access files, or do work that lives on that specific machine. Remote access makes that possible: your remote device becomes a window into your work computer, showing its screen and letting you control it in real time. Splashtop's distinguishing strength is performance: it delivers a fast, high-definition, low-latency remote session — up to 4K at 60fps — so working remotely feels responsive and smooth (crucial for real work, and especially for graphics/video/design), where lesser tools feel laggy. It's also strongly security-focused (256-bit AES encryption, TLS, device authentication, MFA, and compliance with SOC 2, HIPAA, GDPR and more) — important because remote access, done insecurely, is a risk. And it's known for being significantly more affordable than incumbents like TeamViewer and LogMeIn/GoTo, with transparent, published per-user pricing. Tiers scale from Solo (individual) to Pro and Performance (teams, with more features and users). From Splashtop — a San Jose-based, independent (privately held, ~$1B-valued) remote-access specialist used by tens of millions — Business Access is fast, secure, affordable remote access. TechBag scopes, licenses and supports it in INR/GST for Indian organisations.

Vendors love diagrams; buyers need to know what they’re actually operating. Here’s the whole platform, demystified.
Install the Splashtop Streamer on the work computers (Windows/Mac/Linux) you want to reach. They stay on and connected, ready to be accessed remotely — your office desktop, workstation, or any machine whose apps and files you need.
When you connect, Splashtop establishes a secure, encrypted (256-bit AES, TLS) session between your remote device and your work computer — optimised for high performance (up to 4K @ 60fps, low latency), so the remote session is fast and responsive.
From your laptop, tablet or phone (Windows, Mac, iOS, Android, Chromebook, or a browser), you see your work computer's screen and control it in real time — as if you were there. Work from home, travel, or any device.
File transfer, remote print (print remote files on your local printer), multi-monitor support, remote wake, chat, and session recording — the features that make remote access genuinely productive for real work, not just viewing.
Device authentication, MFA, session security, and (for teams) user management, granular access, logging and grouping — so remote access is secure and, for organisations, properly controlled. SOC 2, HIPAA, GDPR compliant.
One agent on every machine, one console over all of them — modules attach without a second operational world.
Business Access lets you reach your own computers from anywhere — fast (4K @ 60fps), secure and affordable — one of the remote-access & support products in the portfolio, and paired with the human firewall.
Securely access and control your Windows, Mac and Linux computers from another computer, tablet or phone — from home, travel, or any device — as if you were sitting in front of them. Your work machine, wherever you are.
Connect from Windows, Mac, iOS, Android, Chromebook or a web browser, to Windows, Mac and Linux computers. Broad cross-platform support means you can reach your machines from whatever device you have to hand.
Transfer files between your local and remote computers (drag-and-drop), and print remote documents on your local printer (remote print) — so you can move and use files and print, not just view the screen. Real productivity.
The distinguishing edge — fast, high-definition, low-latency remote sessions, up to 4K resolution at 60 frames per second. Remote work feels responsive and smooth, so you can do real work (even graphics/video) without lag.
Splashtop's engineering focus on low latency means the remote session responds quickly to your input — mouse, keyboard, scrolling feel immediate. This responsiveness is what separates a usable remote session from a frustrating one.
View and use multiple remote monitors — see all your work computer's screens, mapped to your local displays. For multi-screen workers (developers, analysts, designers), this makes remote work practical, not cramped.
Because of its high performance (4K, 60fps, colour accuracy), Splashtop is notably good for graphics-, video- and design-intensive remote work — where laggy or low-quality remote tools fail. Access your powerful workstation remotely, in quality.
All sessions are secured with 256-bit AES encryption and TLS — so your remote connection and data are protected in transit. Strong encryption is essential for remote access, which handles sensitive screens and data.
Multi-factor authentication and device authentication ensure only authorised users and devices can connect — countering the risk of unauthorised remote access (a serious threat if remote access is left insecure). Access is verified and controlled.
Splashtop maintains strong security compliance — SOC 2, HIPAA, GDPR, and more — so remote access meets security and regulatory standards. Important for regulated organisations and anyone taking remote-access security seriously.
For teams, manage users, group computers, set granular access permissions, and view session logs — so an organisation's remote access is properly controlled and auditable, not a free-for-all. Governance for team remote access.
Splashtop is known for costing significantly less than incumbents (TeamViewer, LogMeIn/GoTo) while matching or beating them on performance — with transparent, published per-user pricing (from ~$5/user/month, Solo). Great value.

The fundamental reason Splashtop Business Access exists is a simple, universal need: people constantly need to reach a computer they're not physically at — and remote access makes that possible, turning any device into a window onto your work machine. The need: work increasingly happens anywhere — home, travel, a client site, a different device — but a lot of what people need (specific applications, files, a powerful workstation, licensed software, work that lives on one machine) is tied to a particular computer, usually at the office. So there's a constant need to get to that computer remotely: to run the app, open the file, use the workstation, or continue the work — without physically being there. This was made acute by remote and hybrid work, but it's a permanent need beyond that (anyone who's needed a file 'on my office PC' knows it). What remote access does: remote-access software like Splashtop solves this by letting your remote device (laptop, tablet, phone) connect to and control your work computer over the internet — you see its screen and operate it in real time, as if sitting in front of it. Your remote device becomes a window into your work machine: full access to its apps, files and power, from anywhere. This is genuinely enabling: you can work from home on your office desktop, access a powerful workstation from a light laptop, reach a file you left behind, or use software licensed to one machine — all remotely. Why it matters: this capability is foundational to modern flexible work and simple practicality. It enables remote/hybrid work (access your office setup from home), business continuity (work despite being unable to reach the office), device flexibility (a light device to reach a powerful one), and everyday convenience (reach any machine, anytime). For individuals and organisations alike, reliable remote access is genuinely useful — often essential. Splashtop provides it, with a focus on doing it fast, securely and affordably. For anyone who needs to reach their computers from elsewhere, this is the tool. TechBag helps organisations enable remote access with Splashtop Business Access. TechBag helps you reach your computers from anywhere.
Splashtop's standout strength is performance — fast, high-definition (up to 4K @ 60fps), low-latency remote sessions — which matters because performance is what separates a genuinely usable remote-access experience from a frustrating one, and it's what lets you do real work (including demanding work) remotely. Why performance matters so much: remote access is only as good as the experience. A laggy, low-resolution, unresponsive remote session is frustrating and limits what you can do — you struggle to work, especially with anything visual or interactive. A fast, high-quality, responsive session, by contrast, feels almost like being there, and lets you work effectively. Performance — resolution, frame rate, and above all latency (responsiveness) — is therefore the single most important quality of remote-access software for real productivity. Splashtop's edge: Splashtop has built its reputation on performance. It delivers high-definition sessions up to 4K resolution at 60 frames per second, with a strong engineering focus on low latency (responsiveness). This means the remote session is smooth, sharp and responsive — mouse and keyboard feel immediate, video and motion are fluid, and detail is clear. Compared to many remote tools that feel laggy or blurry, Splashtop feels fast. What this enables: this performance lets you do real work remotely, including demanding work. General productivity is smooth (no frustrating lag). And crucially, graphics-, video-, design- and CAD-intensive work — which needs high resolution, colour accuracy, frame rate and responsiveness — becomes practical remotely, where lesser tools fail. Creative professionals, engineers, video editors and others can access their powerful workstations remotely, in quality. Multi-monitor support extends this to multi-screen setups. The value: because performance is the key to usable remote access, Splashtop's performance edge is a genuine, meaningful differentiator — it makes remote work actually pleasant and productive, and opens up demanding use cases. For anyone who's endured laggy remote tools, or who does visual/demanding work, this matters a lot. For organisations, better performance means more productive remote workers. Splashtop delivers it. TechBag helps organisations get high-performance remote access with Splashtop. TechBag provides remote access that feels responsive.
A critical strength of Splashtop is its strong security — encryption, authentication, MFA, and broad compliance — which matters because remote access, done insecurely, is a serious security risk (it's literally granting remote control of computers), so it must be secured properly. Why remote-access security is critical: remote-access software grants the ability to remotely see and control computers — which is powerful and, if abused or compromised, dangerous. Insecure remote access is a well-known attack vector: attackers target weak or exposed remote-access tools to gain control of machines, steal data, or move through networks. Poorly-secured remote access (weak authentication, no encryption, exposed) has caused real breaches. So the security of your remote-access tool is paramount — you're trusting it with control of your computers. What Splashtop provides: Splashtop is strongly security-focused. Encryption — all sessions use 256-bit AES encryption and TLS, protecting the connection and data in transit. Authentication — device authentication (only authorised devices connect) and multi-factor authentication (MFA) ensure only legitimate users/devices get access, countering unauthorised-access risk. Session security — features like session logging, idle timeouts, and (for teams) granular access controls. Compliance — Splashtop maintains strong security compliance: SOC 2, HIPAA, GDPR and more — evidencing that its security meets recognised standards, important for regulated organisations. Notably, Splashtop leans on its security as a differentiator, contrasting itself with competitors that have suffered security incidents. The value: this strong security means you can use remote access without it becoming a liability — the connection is encrypted, access is authenticated and controlled, and the platform meets compliance standards. For organisations — especially regulated ones, or any handling sensitive data — this security is essential, not optional. Given that remote access is inherently sensitive (it's remote control of computers), choosing a security-focused, compliant tool like Splashtop is the responsible choice. For any organisation, secure remote access is a must. Splashtop provides it. TechBag helps organisations get secure, compliant remote access with Splashtop. TechBag helps you keep remote access safe.
A major reason organisations choose Splashtop is value — it typically costs significantly less than incumbents like TeamViewer and LogMeIn/GoTo, while matching or beating them on performance, with transparent published pricing — which matters because remote-access tools should be affordable, and the incumbents have a reputation for being expensive. The incumbent problem: the established remote-access leaders — TeamViewer and LogMeIn (now GoTo) — are widely regarded as expensive, and their pricing has drawn criticism (price increases, complex licensing, high costs for what's a fairly commoditised capability). For many organisations, paying premium prices for remote access feels unjustified. Splashtop's value proposition: Splashtop deliberately positions as the high-value alternative — delivering comparable or better capability (notably better performance) at significantly lower cost, with transparent, published per-user pricing (no opaque quote-only games for the core tiers). Its pricing starts low (from ~$5/user/month for Solo) and scales transparently through Pro and Performance tiers. So you get fast, secure, capable remote access at a fraction of incumbent prices. Why this matters: remote access is a widely-needed, fairly commoditised capability — there's little reason to overpay for it. Splashtop's value means organisations can equip their people with excellent remote access affordably, or switch from an expensive incumbent and save substantially (Splashtop actively markets itself as the TeamViewer/LogMeIn alternative for exactly this reason). The transparent pricing also helps — you know what you'll pay upfront, and can budget clearly. The value: for organisations, especially cost-conscious ones or those frustrated with incumbent pricing, Splashtop's combination of strong capability (great performance, solid security) and low, transparent cost is compelling — genuinely better value. It's a rare case where the challenger is both cheaper and (on performance) better. For anyone paying too much for remote access, Splashtop is worth evaluating. TechBag helps organisations get high-value remote access — and switch from costly incumbents — with Splashtop, priced in INR/GST. TechBag helps you stop overpaying for remote access.
Splashtop's nature — an independent, privately-held remote-access specialist, used by tens of millions and valued around $1 billion — matters because it means a focused, financially-healthy, trusted vendor for a capability you rely on, distinct from PE-owned or conglomerate alternatives. A focused specialist: Splashtop specialises in remote access and remote connectivity — it's its core business, not a side-line. This focus shows in the product: the performance engineering, the breadth of remote-access/support offerings, and continuous improvement. You're getting remote access from a company that lives and breathes it, versus a conglomerate for whom it's one of many products. Independent and healthy: Splashtop is privately held and independent — founded 2006, San Jose-based, VC-backed (having raised ~$110M), reportedly valued around $1 billion (a 'unicorn') with strong revenue. This independence and financial health matter: it's a stable, growing, self-directed company, not (like some competitors) owned by private-equity firms known for aggressive monetisation, or a large conglomerate. For a tool you depend on daily, a healthy, focused, independent vendor is reassuring. Trusted at scale: Splashtop is used by tens of millions of users and 200,000+ businesses across 100+ countries — a large, proven user base. This scale evidences that it works and is trusted broadly, from individuals to enterprises. Why this matters: choosing a remote-access tool means trusting a vendor with a capability (and security) you rely on. Splashtop offers a focused specialist (deep in remote access), that's independent and financially healthy (stable, self-directed, not squeezing customers), and proven at scale (tens of millions of users) — a trustworthy, focused, stable choice. Combined with its performance, security and value, this makes Splashtop a compelling vendor, not just a compelling product. For organisations wanting remote access from a focused, trusted, independent specialist, Splashtop fits. TechBag supplies Splashtop with local scoping and support. TechBag provides remote access from a focused, independent specialist.
