RustDesk

RustDesk is a remote desktop tool built for teams and individuals who don't want their remote access traffic passing through someone else's infrastructure. It works on Windows, macOS, Linux, and Android, and it's designed as a direct replacement for tools like TeamViewer, AnyDesk, and Splashtop.

The core appeal is self-hosting. Instead of relying on a SaaS provider's servers, you run the relay and signaling infrastructure yourself. Your data stays on your own machines, which matters for regulatory compliance, security-conscious IT teams, and organizations in industries where data residency isn't optional.

Key capabilities include:

• File transfer, clipboard sync, and international keyboard support built into the client
• Web client you can host on your own domain for browser-based access without installing anything
• Custom branding so you can ship a white-labeled client with your own name, icon, and logo
• Over 90 configuration options for granular control over behavior and policies
• User-level ACL, device groups, and user groups for access management in the Pro version
• 50+ language support across the client
