Does anyone have a TightVNC guide for business use?

As for ScreenConnect talk to @Minion-Queen. NTG is hosting my SC sessions (and one of my clients), and she got me hooked up with the old style licenses, though I'm not sure that's still available or not.
it's not as fast as LMI was (though my use today was pretty good), but performance does greatly depend on available bandwidth at both sides.

Ok so TL:DR, but from what I did read I kind of use NoMachine this way. The browser shows you which devices are on and communicating on the network, and you can just log into a system that way.

Yeah, that's the jump box idea that I mentioned.

I like it a lot. It's great for a free tool. I actually have what's left of my clients each on their own ZeroTier network and that's how I connect to them.

@johnhooks Does it work over the internet? Does it have NAT traversal?

No, you would have to set that up. Since I'm using ZT I didn't have to worry about it.

No, you port forward like anything else. To have NAT traversal you always need something sitting outside of the NAT by definition.

@scottalanmiller I get that, I just wasn't sure if it was software only, or software/service like Teamviewer.

It's just software. It's a protocol stack like RDP or VNC. Just more flexible and powerful and free.
