GoverLAN Remote Control

GoverLAN Remote Control is an efficient and reliable piece of software meant to serve as a means of connecting to computers inside a network and control them from afar, with the least amount of effort possible.

The main window of the program is fairly attractive and user-friendly, making it sufficiently approachable for less experienced individuals, but the lack of knowledge can be attenuated by going through the extensive documentation provided by GoverLAN Remote Control.

The main window features a tabbed interface, allowing for multiple remote sessions to run simultaneously. The application’s ribbon enables you to connect or disconnect from the client PC, as well as chat or send a message to the user on the machine, take a snapshot or start video recording, in just a few button presses.

In order to access a computer remotely, you will need to first choose the connection type, either Microsoft RDP, Citrix ICO / XenAPP or VNC, but the popular choice is probably the first, which requires you to enter the machine name or IP address, and the authentication details, if any exist.

Bear in mind that in order for the remote connection to occur, you need to install GoverLAN Agents on the client computer. While GoverLAN Remote Control is able to automatically install them, you can also do it manually for each target PC, by right clicking the machine in the ‘Favorites’ list and selecting the proper options of the context menu.

Afterward, you can connect to that machine and log off the user, lock the workstation, shut it down, open their task manager as well as chat with them or send them a message. You can also open a remote control session and use the PC, being able to perform a wide range of activities. Other functions include the ability to capture a video or a snapshot of the client computer’s screen.

GoverLAN Remote Control is an intuitive and user-friendly utility aimed to assist you in performing various administrative operations on remote PCs, supporting multiple connections at the same time.
