In our roundup of Android remote desktop apps, this $15 download took the top spot handily. If you’re looking for an inexpensive, business-grade remote desktop app for your iPad that’s loaded with versatile connectivity options, Wyse PocketCloud Pro is one of the best options you’ll find. Wyse PocketCloud Pro’s unique pointer puts all of your menu options at your fingertips. But the lower-cost alternatives are well worth a try before you sign on for an annual contract. If security is your top consideration, GoToMyPC’s well-earned reputation for business-grade reliability and protection could justify the price tag.
Overall, however, in a competitive set where most apps range in price from free to $30 with no additional service fees, GoToMyPC stands out as an expensive option at $99 per host. These safeguards could prove helpful in preventing breaches in the event that your iPad falls into the wrong hands. The app also provides some useful security measures–such as requiring a separate password for the host machine that is distinct from the main user password–that set it apart from the competition. It connected quickly and rendered the screen fairly smoothly over a steady broadband connection. In my tests, GoToMyPC performed well on the iPad, though it was by no means the speediest of the apps I tried. Meanwhile, pinch-to-zoom, dragging, and scrolling all work within the app as they do throughout iOS. A one-finger tap acts as a single click, a two-finger tap corresponds to a double-click, and tapping with three fingers toggles the keyboard. GoToMyPC for iPad also supports multitouch gestures, as any good iPad app should.
