What is desktop sharing? Two identical monitors that’s what! Desktop sharing is a feature which allows a person to access a computer’s desktop remotely.
In Hollywood movies, desktop sharing is something which is done by hackers, wherein they take control of another computer remotely, rendering its user helpless and unable to use it.
Today, desktop sharing is a feature enabled in many computer systems. The capabilities of desktop sharing allow it to be used in a variety of ways.
Desktop Sharing For Online Trainings
During online trainings and seminars, participants are all glued to the monitor of their computer units. Verbal instructions become secondary because the participants are aware that the one conducting the training or seminar is absent. Desktop sharing becomes a valuable tool in here because the trainer can demonstrate more clearly to the participants; with desktop sharing he can take control of every computer unit and exhibit simultaneously on their monitors.
Desktop Sharing For Online and Remote Instructions
Desktop sharing can be most appreciated in a situation that requires step by step instruction. It would be very cumbersome when one person is in front of a computer and another isn’t and instructions are being relayed through voice, like a cellphone for example. But if you used another computer capable of desktop sharing, this is made easier.
Desktop Sharing For Online and Remote Presentations
With desktop sharing, no need for you to fly all the way for business presentations and demonstrations. Coupled with the power of online conferencing, presenters can use desktop sharing to control their PC from anywhere thus allowing them to do product demos, product evaluations, without being physically present in front of the audience; such as a panel of evaluators or stockholders. With desktop sharing, demonstrations and presentations from your PC are made more convenient.
