What's your flavour of screen sharing?

I would like a reliable screen sharing option. Skype [business edition] has decided to be a total ass and is going in the direction of the bin. TeamViewer is trying to elbow its way to the front. What other options can anyone suggest?

I never share my screen: I might not get it back. :~
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

He said "screen", not "sheep".
I wanna be a eunuchs developer! Pass me a bread knife!
I don't share them either!

That's the best open-source option I've seen. Bit of a sod if you've got multiple screens, though.

Might help internally, but I'm interested in easy ways to share the screen rather than hand over control. If I want to take over a machine I'll use RDCMan, for this problem I want to share the screen for Demos.

Things I've use: Skype is ok (I use the personal version) but is totally un-intuitive as to how to set up screen sharing. Team Viewer: when it works, I really like it. It's fast, the file transfer is fast, the only thing I don't like is when it thinks I'm using it for business purposes when I'm not. Kaseya: Totally sucks. Slow, FTP is pathetic, 50% of the time it fails to connect, and then FTP times out after 1 or 2 minutes of inactivity. GoToMyPC: Still one of the best, and I'm willing to pay for it. WebEx: Great, a bit confusing sometimes ScreenHero: The one time I tried it, it failed miserably, they were "upgrading" I think because they were being acquired by some other company? uberconference: Not bad, but for the audio connection, the hold music is cute once, annoying ever after. join.me: Fallback for when everything else fails for one reason or other.

As I only need to share the screen, demos to clients etc, file transfer is not important. Skype is canned and TeamViewer is still in with a chance. I may go back to WebEx, used previously, if one of the freebies totally fails.

You mean like for tech support? Before they sold off and turned into Dracula, we bought a single tech license of screen connect and put if on a win7 box in our office. Backed it up nightly with acronis because it allows us to have Logmein rescue style access to any little old lady we might need to help out from afar. It was $300.00- one time. And it is the best thing ever. Especially when snowed in. Now, they want the moon on a subscription.

I'm in a mixed group, some silver boxes some black boxes, Lync/Skype works well with my black box brethren. With the Silver boxes we tend to use Zoom, the only drawback is that meetings can only last 40 minutes. Me, I'm a black box.

I (and the company I am working for) use join.me - it is free and works reasonably well.

To answer the question: My flavour depends on the circumstances, that is the use case. What's your use case?

I have started using Zoho Meeting, http://join.zoho.com/ its quick and easy and free for low usage. I use teamviewer for non-commercial purposes but their licences are too expensive for occasional usage.

I use a mixture of gotomeeting and webex. Gotomeeting is cheaper but some customers can only work with webex. Both are reliable high quality solutions. Used joinme in it's early days and it sucked, maybe it's better now?
If I had known then the things that I know now, I would not have done the things that have lead to me knowing what I do.

i was impressed when a sales person did a skype call and demoed the product with the skype screen sharing. when tried using again later with colleagues, learned both ends need camera and mic which I had not known. (maybe just a mic needed, not totally sure) So yeah, if have camera and mic, lots of people already have skype installed and using, so stick with that. also noticed HipChat had screen sharing as well recently.

I haven't seen anyone else mention it yet, but I use the paid version of Mikogo for business meetings with clients (when I'm working as a contractor). It works really nicely and I haven't hit the limit on participants yet. It includes VOIP that works really well, but the meeting is all-VOIP or all-phone (dialin), so the lowest common denominator wins if you have a mixed bag of attendees.
