Open Source Remote Desktop Software

TurboVNC is a high-performance, enterprise-quality version of VNC based on TightVNC, TigerVNC, and X.org. It contains a variant of Tight encoding that is tuned for maximum performance and compression with 3D applications (VirtualGL), video, and other image-intensive workloads. TurboVNC, in combination with VirtualGL, provides a complete solution for remotely displaying 3D applications with interactive performance. TurboVNC's high-speed encoding methods have been adopted by TigerVNC and libvncserver, and TurboVNC is also compatible with any other TightVNC derivative. TurboVNC forked from TightVNC in 2004 and still covers all of the TightVNC 1.3.x features, but TurboVNC contains numerous feature enhancements and bug fixes relative to TightVNC, and it compresses 3D and video workloads much better than TightVNC while using generally only 5-20% of the CPU time of the latter. Using non-default settings, TurboVNC can also be made to compress 2D workloads as "tightly" as TightVNC.

TightVNC is an improved version of VNC, great free remote-desktop tool. The improvements include bandwidth-friendly "Tight" encoding, file transfers in the Windows version, enhanced GUI, many bugfixes, and more.

This is the open source project of the now greatly enhanced Enterprise solution which has professional support, is faster, smarter and has lots more functionality. T-Plan Robot (formerly VNCRobot), is the most flexible and universal black box automated testing tools on the market. This project is the former open source version, and is now superseded by T-Plan Robot Enterprise. Robot is platform independent (Java), and thus performs well in situations where other tools may fail. Robot runs on and automates all major systems e.g. Windows, Linux and Unix, plus mobile platforms, such as IOS and Android. The product has the same functionality, look and feel regardless of OS, and your scripts are completely transferable between platforms. Utilising remote desktop technologies, together with image based testing principles, T-Plan Robot provides a human-like approach to software testing from the end-user GUI perspective.
