What Is RDP Hosting & Where To Get One?
Have you ever shared your desktop screen with someone else remotely? You must have at least received a call from some kind of scammer asking for remote access to your system in the name of checking certain errors or telling you that your system has been hacked.
Either you were too smart to not give them the access or they were able to manipulate you enough to get access to your computer and scam you.
Well, I am not going to tell you how to prevent this from happening unless you want me to tell you. But for today, let’s talk about what RDP is and from where you can get RDP Server Hosting.
RDP, short for Remote Desktop Protocol is a network communication protocol that is based on Virtual Network Computing application. RDP allows one computer machine to access and control a different machine/server located anywhere in the world remotely.
Through RDP, you can not not only control another system or a server but transfer almost any kind of data files like media, device signals, presentation, encrypted data, licensing information.
How is it different from other Applications like TeamViewer and AnyDesk?
These applications work on the same technology as RDP, however, there are some limited functionalities to TeamViewer, AnyDesk, etc. Here you can take access to someone’s screen and control their system.
However, in RDP, you are assigned an IP, username and password for a server with the help of which you can access that specific server globally and manage the data on that server. It doesn’t have to be a laptop or computer for you to be able to access it through RDP.
Where to get RDP?
Not many companies have come into this field as of now. You may say that the concept is relatively new and hence, people have still not entered this domain.
One company that strikes me is RDPHostings.com that claims to provide a Free RDP Server Lifetime offer. Certain features that I liked the most about them:
- Instant Scaling Up or Down As Required
- No Credit Card Required
- 50Mbps Internet Speed
- Full Admin Access
- 100GB SSD Disk Space
The company is based in the US and is a newbie. Still, the plans it is offering are quite attractive. Let me share a screenshot of the plans and features.
You can also check out the other companies. I am still trying the one I have mentioned above and will keep you updated about my experience with RDPHostings.com.
