Quick answer

Splashtop Remote Support is unattended remote-support software — it lets IT teams and MSPs (managed service providers) remotely access, manage and support a fleet of computers they're responsible for, anytime, without anyone needing to be present at the other end. Why this matters: IT teams and MSPs are responsible for keeping many computers (endpoints) — their organisation's, or their clients' — running: fixing issues, applying updates, checking status, doing maintenance. Much of this needs to happen without bothering (or waiting for) the user — e.g. maintenance after hours, fixing a server, or accessing an unmanned machine. Unattended remote access makes this possible: the IT team pre-deploys Splashtop on the computers they manage, and can then connect to any of them anytime — no user needed at the other end — to support, maintain and manage them. Remote Support is built for exactly this: managing a fleet of endpoints. You deploy it across the computers you're responsible for (silently, at scale), group and organise them, monitor their status, and access any of them on demand for support or maintenance. It typically includes endpoint-management extras — like remote command, background tools, monitoring/alerts, and (via Splashtop AEM) patch management — making it a lightweight endpoint-management and support tool, not just remote access. It's licensed by the number of managed computers (so cost scales with your fleet), and like all Splashtop products it's high-performance, strongly secure (256-bit AES, MFA, SOC 2/HIPAA/GDPR) and affordable versus incumbents. From Splashtop — an independent, high-performance remote-connectivity specialist — Remote Support is fast, secure, affordable unattended fleet support. TechBag scopes, licenses and supports it in INR/GST for Indian organisations.

Under the hood

The five pieces of the platform

Vendors love diagrams; buyers need to know what they’re actually operating. Here’s the whole platform, demystified.

01
The setup

Deploy to the Fleet

Pre-install on managed endpoints

Deploy the Splashtop agent (silently, at scale) across the computers you manage — your organisation's endpoints, or your clients' — so they're all accessible for unattended support. One-time deployment, then anytime access.

02
The oversight

Organise & Monitor

Groups, status, alerts

Group and organise your managed computers (by client, department, type), and monitor their status — online/offline, health, and alerts on issues. So you have visibility over your whole fleet and know when something needs attention.

03
The access

Access Unattended

Any endpoint, anytime

Connect to any managed computer on demand, unattended — no one needs to be present at the other end. High-performance sessions to support, fix, maintain or manage the endpoint, whenever needed (including after hours or on unmanned machines).

04
The management

Manage & Fix

Tools beyond access

Beyond remote control, use endpoint-management tools — remote command/script execution, background file transfer and task manager, system inventory, and (via Splashtop AEM) patch management — to manage and maintain endpoints efficiently, often without interrupting the user.

05
The model

Per-Computer & Secure

Scales with your fleet

Licensed by the number of managed computers — cost scales with your fleet. Secured with 256-bit AES, MFA, and access controls, logged and compliant (SOC 2, HIPAA, GDPR) — so unattended access to your fleet is safe and governed.

One agent on every machine, one console over all of them — modules attach without a second operational world.

Part 03 · Evaluate

Twelve capabilities. Access, manage, secure.

Remote Support lets IT teams & MSPs manage a fleet of endpoints — unattended, anytime, with monitoring, command and patch — one of the remote-access & support products in the portfolio, and paired with the human firewall.

Access
Unattended access

Unattended Access to Managed Endpoints

Manage
Remote command

Remote Command & Scripting

Run commands and scripts on endpoints remotely (often in the background, without interrupting the user) — to fix issues, automate maintenance, or manage many machines at once. Efficient management beyond hands-on remote control.

Manage
Background tools

Background Tools (File, Task, Registry)

Use background tools — file transfer, task manager, system inventory, registry, event logs, services — to manage and troubleshoot endpoints without taking over the user's screen. Fix things quietly, without disrupting work.

Manage
Patch (AEM)

Patch Management via Splashtop AEM

Add Splashtop AEM (Autonomous Endpoint Management) for OS and third-party patch management, policy/config, alerting and automated remediation across your fleet — turning Remote Support into a fuller endpoint-management solution. Keep endpoints patched and secure.

Secure
Encryption & MFA

256-bit AES Encryption & MFA

Unattended access is secured with 256-bit AES encryption and TLS, and technicians authenticate with MFA — so only authorised staff can reach your endpoints, and sessions are protected. Essential, since unattended access to a fleet is powerful.

Secure
Access control

Granular Access Control & Roles

Control which technicians can access which computers/groups, with roles and permissions — so (especially for MSPs) access is scoped correctly (e.g. a technician only sees their assigned clients). Governed fleet access.

Secure
Logging & compliance

Session Logging & Compliance

All access is logged (who accessed which endpoint, when — an audit trail), and Splashtop maintains SOC 2, HIPAA, GDPR and more — so unattended fleet access is auditable and compliant. Important for accountability and regulated environments.

Secure

Why Remote Support

The endpoint catches what arrives. Email stops it arriving.

Here’s what genuinely sets Splashtop Remote Support apart.

01

Managing a fleet needs unattended access — anytime, no user needed

The fundamental reason Splashtop Remote Support exists is that IT teams and MSPs must manage and support many computers, much of which needs to happen without a user present — and unattended remote access makes that possible. The fleet-management reality: IT teams (managing their organisation's endpoints) and MSPs (managing clients' endpoints) are responsible for keeping many computers running well: fixing issues, applying updates and patches, doing maintenance, checking status, installing software, troubleshooting. This is ongoing work across a whole fleet of machines. Why unattended access is essential: much of this work needs to happen without a user present at the other end. Consider: maintenance and updates are best done after hours or in the background, when users aren't working. Servers and unmanned machines have no user to attend. Proactive fixes (before a user even notices) require accessing the machine independently. Bulk tasks across many endpoints can't wait for each user to be available. In all these, you need to reach the computer without someone there to grant access each time — i.e. unattended access. What Remote Support provides: Remote Support enables this by pre-deploying the Splashtop agent on the computers you manage. Once deployed, you can connect to any of them anytime, unattended — no user needed — to support, maintain and manage them. You get on-demand access to your entire fleet, whenever required. This is the foundation of efficient fleet support: rather than depending on users being present (as attended support does), you can work on your managed endpoints independently and proactively. The value: unattended fleet access transforms IT/MSP efficiency — maintenance and fixes happen when convenient (after hours, in the background), unmanned machines and servers are reachable, problems are fixed proactively, and bulk work across many endpoints is feasible. For IT teams and MSPs managing endpoints at scale, this is essential — you simply can't manage a fleet well relying only on attended, user-present access. Remote Support gives you the anytime, unattended access that fleet management requires. For any IT team or MSP responsible for a set of computers, this is the core enabling capability. TechBag helps organisations manage their endpoint fleet with Splashtop Remote Support. TechBag helps you reach your managed computers anytime.

02

More than access — lightweight endpoint management

A key strength of Splashtop Remote Support is that it's more than just remote access — it includes endpoint-management capabilities (monitoring, alerts, remote command, background tools, and patch management via AEM) — which matters because managing a fleet well requires managing endpoints, not just connecting to them. Beyond remote control: basic remote access lets you take over a machine's screen. But managing a fleet efficiently needs more — you need to monitor endpoints' health, be alerted to issues, run tasks across many machines, fix things in the background without interrupting users, keep endpoints patched, and maintain them proactively. Doing all this by manually remote-controlling each machine one at a time would be hugely inefficient. Remote Support's management capabilities: Remote Support provides endpoint-management tools alongside remote access: Monitoring and alerts — see endpoints' status and health, and get proactive alerts on issues — so you catch problems early and manage proactively. Remote command and scripting — run commands/scripts on endpoints (often in the background) to fix issues or automate maintenance across many machines efficiently. Background tools — file transfer, task manager, system inventory, event logs, services — to troubleshoot and manage without taking over the user's screen (no disruption). Patch management (via Splashtop AEM) — add AEM for OS and third-party patching, configuration policies, and automated remediation across the fleet, keeping endpoints secure and up to date. What this makes it: these capabilities turn Remote Support from a mere remote-access tool into a lightweight endpoint-management and support solution — you can monitor, maintain, fix and manage your fleet, not just connect to it. This is far more useful for IT teams and MSPs, whose job is managing endpoints, not just accessing them. The value: for IT teams and MSPs, having management capabilities integrated with remote access means you can efficiently manage your whole fleet from one tool — proactive monitoring, background maintenance, mass tasks, patching — rather than just reactively remote-controlling individual machines. This efficiency and proactivity is genuinely valuable, and (with AEM) approaches the capability of dedicated endpoint-management/RMM tools, at Splashtop's value. For organisations wanting to manage, not just access, their endpoints, this matters. TechBag helps organisations manage their fleet efficiently with Remote Support (and AEM). TechBag helps you manage endpoints, not just reach them.

03

Per-computer licensing, unlimited technicians — scales with your fleet

A significant advantage of Remote Support is its per-managed-computer licensing (with unlimited technicians) — you pay for the number of endpoints you manage, and any number of your technicians can access them — which matters because it aligns cost with your fleet and lets your whole team work without per-seat charges. How the model works: Remote Support is licensed by the number of managed computers — the endpoints you deploy it on and manage. You pay per endpoint (typically in packs/tiers). Crucially, unlimited technicians can access those managed computers — there's no per-technician charge. So your entire IT team or MSP staff can all manage the fleet, and cost depends only on the fleet size. Why this suits fleet management: this model fits how IT teams and MSPs work: your cost scales with the number of endpoints you're responsible for (your fleet), which is the natural unit — more endpoints to manage, proportionally more cost; and your whole team can work on the fleet without extra per-person charges (important, since fleet management is a team effort, and you don't want to pay per technician on top of per endpoint). This contrasts with attended support (like SOS), which is per-technician — the right model there (support capacity), but Remote Support's per-computer model is right for fleet management (fleet size). Combined with affordability: on top of this fitting model, Remote Support is priced significantly lower than incumbents like TeamViewer while matching fleet capability — so you get an appropriate licensing model AND low cost. The value: for IT teams and MSPs, per-computer licensing with unlimited technicians means predictable, fleet-aligned costs, with your whole team able to manage endpoints — economical and sensible for fleet management. And it's affordable versus incumbents. This makes Remote Support a cost-effective way to manage and support many endpoints, and a common switch target for organisations wanting better value. For any IT team or MSP managing a fleet, this model and pricing are well-suited and good value. TechBag helps organisations get fleet-aligned, affordable endpoint support with Remote Support. TechBag helps your whole team manage the fleet, priced by endpoints.

04

Secure, governed, compliant unattended access

Because Remote Support provides unattended access to a fleet of computers — a powerful capability — its security, governance and compliance are essential, and Splashtop provides them strongly. Why unattended access must be secured: unattended access means being able to connect to managed computers anytime, without a user present to grant access. This is powerful and efficient — but it means the access itself must be tightly secured and controlled, because it's standing access to many machines. If compromised or misused, an attacker or rogue insider could reach the whole fleet. So the security and governance of unattended access is paramount. What Remote Support provides: Strong encryption and authentication — 256-bit AES encryption and TLS protect sessions, and technicians authenticate with MFA, so only authorised staff can access endpoints. This is critical given the standing access. Granular access control — control which technicians can access which computers or groups, with roles and permissions. For MSPs especially, this scopes access correctly (a technician sees only their assigned clients), and for all, it enforces least privilege. Logging and audit — all access is logged (who accessed which endpoint, when), providing an audit trail for accountability and investigation. Compliance — Splashtop maintains SOC 2, HIPAA, GDPR and more, so unattended fleet access meets security and regulatory standards — important for regulated environments and MSPs handling clients' systems. Why this matters: this security and governance means unattended fleet access — for all its power and convenience — is safe and controlled, not a liability. Access is encrypted and authenticated, scoped to the right technicians and machines, logged for audit, and compliant. For IT teams and MSPs (who hold access to many machines, often including clients'), this is essential — both to protect the fleet and to meet the accountability and compliance expectations of managing others' systems. Given how powerful unattended access is, doing it with strong security and governance (as Remote Support provides) is the responsible approach. For any organisation managing endpoints, secure, governed, compliant access is a must. TechBag helps organisations get secure, governed unattended access with Remote Support. TechBag helps you manage your fleet safely.

05

Fast, affordable fleet support from an independent specialist

Remote Support combines Splashtop's hallmarks — high performance, strong security, affordability, and an independent, focused, trusted vendor — in a fleet-support tool, which matters because managing endpoints is ongoing, business-critical work that benefits from all of these. Performance: like all Splashtop products, Remote Support delivers fast, responsive sessions — so when a technician does connect to an endpoint (for hands-on support), it's smooth and efficient, not laggy. Good performance keeps fleet support work fast. Affordability and value: Remote Support is significantly cheaper than incumbents like TeamViewer — which are known for expensive pricing — while matching fleet capability. For IT teams and MSPs managing many endpoints, this cost difference is substantial (per-endpoint costs add up), and Remote Support is a common switch target for those wanting better value on fleet support. Real value for a core, ongoing function. Independent, focused specialist: Splashtop is an independent, privately-held, financially-healthy remote-connectivity specialist — remote access and support is its core business. So Remote Support comes from a focused, expert, stable, self-directed vendor (not PE-owned like some competitors, or a conglomerate side-line), proven at scale. For a tool your IT team or MSP relies on to manage endpoints daily, this focused, trusted, stable vendor is reassuring. Plus the ecosystem: Remote Support fits within Splashtop's broader range — pair it with SOS (on-demand attended support), AEM (deeper endpoint management/patching), or Enterprise — so you can build a complete remote-support-and-management capability with one vendor. The combination: Remote Support brings together anytime unattended fleet access, endpoint-management capabilities, fast performance, strong compliant security, per-computer value, and a focused independent vendor. For IT teams and MSPs managing endpoints, this makes it a compelling, cost-effective fleet-support-and-management tool. Especially for those switching from a costly incumbent, the value is clear. TechBag supplies Remote Support with local scoping, migration help and support. TechBag provides fast, affordable, secure fleet support from a specialist.

06

The honest scope

Splashtop Remote Support is unattended remote-support and lightweight endpoint-management software — letting IT teams and MSPs access, manage and support a fleet of computers they're responsible for, anytime, without a user present — distinguished by its anytime unattended fleet access, endpoint-management capabilities (monitoring, alerts, remote command, background tools, and patch via AEM), high performance, strong compliant security, per-managed-computer licensing (unlimited technicians), and affordability. The honest framing: the unattended-support and RMM (remote monitoring and management) space is competitive. Options range from remote-access-focused tools to full RMM platforms: TeamViewer (broad, premium), ConnectWise ScreenConnect (popular unattended-access tool for MSPs), N-able Take Control / N-central and Atera (full RMM platforms with deep automation, patching, monitoring, ticketing), and GoTo Resolve. Splashtop Remote Support's distinctive strengths are: its high performance; its strong, compliant security; its per-computer value (far cheaper than TeamViewer); its endpoint-management capabilities (especially with AEM added); and its independent-specialist vendor. Relative to full RMM platforms (N-able, Atera, ConnectWise RMM), Remote Support (even with AEM) is more focused on access-plus-core-management than a complete RMM with ticketing/PSA — though for many, that focus (plus AEM) is exactly right, at better value. This page covers Remote Support (unattended fleet support); for on-demand attended user support, see Splashtop SOS; for deeper endpoint management/patching, Splashtop AEM; and for org-wide SSO/on-prem, Splashtop Enterprise. Remote Support is most compelling when you want fast, affordable, secure unattended access and lightweight management of a fleet — especially for IT teams and MSPs, and those switching from a costly incumbent. For a full RMM/PSA suite, dedicated RMM platforms may go further. TechBag scopes Remote Support honestly against ConnectWise, TeamViewer, N-able and Atera, and licenses it in INR/GST with local support.

Questions buyers ask

Splashtop Remote Support is unattended remote-support and lightweight endpoint-management software — it lets IT teams and MSPs remotely access, manage and support a fleet of computers they're responsible for, anytime, without anyone present at the other end. IT teams (managing their organisation's endpoints) and MSPs (managing clients' endpoints) must keep many computers running — fixing issues, applying updates, doing maintenance, checking status — much of which needs to happen without a user present (after-hours maintenance, servers, unmanned machines, proactive fixes, bulk tasks). Remote Support enables this: you pre-deploy the Splashtop agent (silently, at scale) on the computers you manage, then connect to any of them anytime, unattended, to support and manage them. Beyond remote control, it includes endpoint-management capabilities — monitoring and proactive alerts, remote command/scripting, background tools (file transfer, task manager, inventory), and (via Splashtop AEM) patch management — making it a lightweight endpoint-management tool, not just remote access. It's licensed per managed computer (cost scales with your fleet) with unlimited technicians (your whole team works, no per-seat charge). Like all Splashtop products, it's high-performance, strongly secure (256-bit AES, MFA, granular access, SOC 2/HIPAA/GDPR), and affordable versus incumbents like TeamViewer. From Splashtop, an independent remote-connectivity specialist, it's fast, secure, affordable unattended fleet support. TechBag scopes, licenses and supports it in INR/GST.
