As flexible work schedules become the standard, employees need access to their work from anywhere. AnyDesk, a free remote desktop application, supports unattended access (this enables users to connect to a remote device using a password that bypasses the need for another user to accept a connection request), doesn't require installation, enables users to transfer files, and doesn't require alternate router settings.

The app uses an ID number to establish a connection. Once users set up a password, they can invite remote users to connect to their account. Permissions include enabling others to view the computer screen, control the mouse and keyboard, access the clipboard, share files, and print documents. Remote workers can connect via the app's chat interface and use the whiteboard feature to collaborate with colleagues.

Companies can personalize the space by adding their logo and customizing settings and features such as a contact address book, existing software integration, varied permission levels, and security requirements.
