Pick BeyondTrust Remote Support when
- You need keyboard and mouse control
- You reach many computers with nobody at them
- You support phones, kiosks and network devices too
Anslation Remote
Pick BeyondTrust Remote Support when you need full control, unattended computers through Jump Clients, phones, kiosks and command-line access to network devices. Pick Anslation Remote when the person you help should install nothing and seeing their screen, with every session approved and logged, is enough.
In short
For help where the person sits at their computer, yes. They type a one-time code into a browser page and share a screen or window, view-only, with nothing to install, and your policy decides who approves each session. BeyondTrust Remote Support does more: full control, Jump Clients that stay installed on computers, phones and kiosks, and command-line access to network devices.
What we say about BeyondTrust Remote Support comes from its own pages, checked on 5 November 2026. Where it does more, the table says so.
| Question | Anslation Remote | BeyondTrust Remote Support |
|---|---|---|
| What the person you help runs | A desktop browser and a 9-digit code | Its customer client for full support; a chat can start in the browser without it |
| How a session starts | They type the code; your policy asks for consent or approval | A session key, a representative’s name or an issue form on its support portal |
| Keyboard and mouse control | Not in the browser: view-only (a preview helper program can, once the person allows it on their computer) | Yes |
| Unattended access | Screens: no. Terminal commands: with the optional agent and an access rule | Yes, with a Jump Client installed on each system |
| Command line | Approved terminal commands through the optional agent | Shell Jump, for devices that accept SSH or Telnet |
| Platforms | Desktop Chrome, Edge, Firefox or Safari | Windows, macOS, Linux, Chrome OS, iOS, Android, Zebra devices and kiosks are listed |
Plans and features change. Check BeyondTrust Remote Support’s own pages before you decide.
For view-only help, yes: with Anslation Remote the person you help shares from their desktop browser with a code. BeyondTrust can start a chat in the browser, and full support runs in its customer client.
Not for screens. Its optional agent for managed devices reports device status and runs terminal commands that pass the policy check, with nobody at the device only under an access rule; it has no screen sharing of its own.
They can join and chat from a phone, but screen sharing needs a desktop browser. BeyondTrust lists iOS and Android support.
