If you travel a lot or just want to have access to your home or office computer anywhere at any time then LogMeIn is the perfect software for you. This simple tool can be installed on your computer and then with just the use of a USB drive you can login to your computer from anywhere in the world. You computer can now be accessed instantly, easily, and most importantly securely from any PC with an internet connection.

So first let's talk about the best quality of the LogMeIn software, and that is the fact that it is totally free! You can download the most basic version and start using the program for totally free. It is a simple and effective way to have instant access to your computer from anywhere you are in the world. LogMeIn also is a secure 256-bit SSL encryption for powerful security so you don't have to worry about this being an unsafe practice. With LogMeIn you get easy access to all the files on your computer, easy sharing of files without uploads, sharing of you desktop, and synchronization of your files and folders in seconds. This program is an amazing little tool that has a lot of good qualities and is entirely free to you to use.

LogMeIn has more than one version for users to choose from, the most basic is the free version which gives you all the power of controlling your PC remotely, sharing your files, synchronizing your files, and printing your files locally. You can get LogMeInPro and you get even more functionality, you can check out the differences and see which version is best for you. The free version gives you all the tools you need to control you entire computer from any other computer without to much difficulty.

What I like about LogMeIn, the fact that I can get it free is a huge plus. Other than the program being free, I like that I can install a simple program that allows me to control my PC from any other computer that has an internet connection. This comes in handy if you are traveling a lot and want access to your PC for business or pleasure uses. There are a lot of programs that give you the same access to your PC remotely like LogMeIn but they cost at the minimum $40 bucks, so why not go with this totally free program instead? I like that the interface is easy to use and the accounts and downloads are self explanatory and easy to setup. Basically they have made this program very user friendly, so nearly anyone can use it.

I like that the program has an easy set of features and even when you reboot your remote PC, once the computer comes back on you will be prompted to logon again, a nice touch! The website also has a great FAQ to answer any questions that a user might have during the usage of the LogMeIn program and most questions have simple answers. You can also contact their tech support for assistance if you are having problems. LogMeIn is overall a great free tool that I suggest for small businesses that do a lot traveling.

Downfalls of the program, well it doesn't support Linux or Mac OS so some people are going to be let down. I am surprised that free software doesn't support a free OS like Linux but oh well. I also don't like that you have to login to the LogMeIn website to use the software to control your PC. It just makes me think they are watching my every move and what if a disgruntled employee decides one day they want to access my PC and do something malicious. It just makes me worry a bit, but I haven't heard anything like this happening yet.

To get your copy of LogMeIn and try it out go to (https://secure.logmein.com/home.asp) and download the program, sign up for an account and go to a friends house and start using the software. Test it thoroughly before you decided if you want to use it for business or not, also make sure to check out all of their other versions and see if there is a specific version of LogMeIn that will suite your needs! Hope you enjoy yet another free tool, you know I love the free software!
