Remote Support That Just Works

Anytime, anywhere access lets you remotely control devices and help keep your clients up and running.

Not just any remote support software will do. With ConnectWise Control, provide secure and reliable remote control or behind-the-scenes support to tackle any issue that comes your way, no matter where you or your clients are located.

User Reviews

  • GREAT program!

  • Maybe just for nostalgia, but not necessarily. It creates a very different kind of conversation. You might be surprised and might find it more interesting to try a BBS system. This program is beyond phenomenal for all it does and being available on so many platforms.

  • Excellent piece of software.

  • This is a great terminal program that is currently in production! Easy to use. -= m0shpit =-

  • This beautifully re-creates the ansi world from back in the day. I've tried this on multiple platforms (Linux, FreeBSD, Win32) and it faithfully reproduces the BBS experience. I've been heavily using this terminal in the re-development of my own BBS.
