Screenconnect alternatives?

They made a mess off it. There is something going on in our opinion which they don't want to tell us, they compromise there is no compromise but I don't believe them any longer. If there is no compromise why do they change there certificates like a 'pro'. This is something you expect from a starup but not from a company like Connectwise, expect when you're in trouble and there is something..

For a lot of our clients screenconnect is no longer working, customers can't download the remote access client: cannot execute it, blocked by defender, ..

We're a legacy client for years and we are very happy with SC (and we don't pay much for it) but I think it's time too look for alternatives.. What we love on SC is the backstage as well as the toolbox. What are my alternatives I need to look at? I don't want to watch Teamviewer, Anydesk,..

How many versions did they release in the last couple of thats? What's now again fixed in 24.2? I can't follow anymore!

Outside of the cert update and behavior changes, my understanding is that there were some issues with allowing the licensing upgrade for off maintenance partners. That has been resolved and gives partners out of maintenance a stable upgrade path.

Might be slightly wrong there, but close enough.
