It assists them to read and download journal papers from the databases subscribed by their universities via remotely access their campus networks. Remote desktop is useful for research students and part-time researchers. Teamviewer is awesome and free for personal, non-commercial use. It is wonderful to remotely access your desktop at any time and anywhere. It is also easy to set up, as it installs its host and client at one time.

It is quite often that universities and institutes have a secured network, therefore traditional VNC connect fails to receive incoming packets via listening ports.

Teamviewer is the primary choice of cross-platform remote desktop software for Windows, Mac, and Linux systems.
