There's a thousand more out there. Those are the ones that I know of. I did not include LogMeIn since it is not affordable except by Fortune 500 customers.

Teamview is expensive AF.
I have a friend that works at ConnectWise. hmmm

edit: BTW, this will be used to connect to my own machine remotely. Does that change anything?

Connectwise Control is free for personal use. It's hosted by Connectwise so there are no updates that you need to do, no server to maintain, etc. I forget all of the limitations it has vs the paid product. I use it on my personal systems, and my family members. Works fine.

How does it actually handle multiple monitors? I'm looking for something that will split them out into tabs or something. I have 3 monitors, so all in one window would be unusable.
