Compute and storage have evolved, but networking hasn't. until now. meet Remote.it

February 3, 2024

Are you tired of dealing with outdated and unreliable networking systems? Have you been searching for a solution to keep up with the rapid evolution of computing and storage technologies? Look no further than Remote.it.

Introduction

As technology has advanced, we have seen incredible progress in computing and storage capabilities. We can now process vast amounts of data at lightning speeds and store massive amounts of information in compact devices. However, when it comes to networking, we still use outdated and unreliable systems that often hinder our ability to make the most of these advancements. Remote.It aims to change this by providing a cutting-edge networking solution that can keep up with modern computing and storage demands.

What is Remote.It?

Remote.it is a networking platform that provides secure, reliable, and easy-to-use connections between devices. With Remote.It, you can connect to any device on any network, without the need for complex and insecure port forwarding. Users can access devices remotely, from anywhere in the world, with ease and confidence.

How does Remote.it work?

Unlike VPN networks that create a network tunnel to a specific subnet range and require manual IT management for access and provisioning, Remote.It creates virtual zero trust network. Remote.It's zero trust network allows DevOps and IT teams to create virtual collections of endpoints and users. By tagging users and resources can automatically be configured as resources are brought up and taken down, such as Docker containers or onboarding new employees.

Unlike subnet based VPN solutions, Remote.It zero trust networks enable simultaneous access to as many different physical networks for both users and endpoints. Remote.It eliminates the complexity associated with subnet address collisions, floating IP addresses from distributed or remote workforces, and other complex IT challenges.

Features of Remote.it

Remote.It has features that make it the perfect networking solution for modern computing and storage needs. Here are just a few of the key features:

Seamless Connectivity

With Remote.It, you can connect to any device on any network without the need for complex port forwarding or firewall configuration. Uses can access devices remotely with ease, from anywhere in the world even when the devices do not have a global public IP address or port.

High Security

Remote.It uses state-of-the-art encryption and security protocols to create a secure tunnel between your devices. The Zero Trust virtual network implements least privileged access and also eliminates external attack surface since private resources are invisible to bots and malicious attackers.

We ensure that your data is always protected, and that your connections are safe from hackers and other malicious actors.

Easy-to-Use Interface

Remote.it features a simple and intuitive interface that makes it easy to connect to your devices remotely. You don't need any technical knowledge or expertise to start with Remote.It, making it accessible to users of all skill levels.

Organizations can embed network connectivity, management, and security into existing workflows and applications via our API.

Compatibility

Remote.It is compatible with various devices and operating systems, including Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, and Android.  Read more about our device compatibility.

Flexibility

Remote.It offers a high degree of flexibility, allowing you to customize your connections to suit your specific needs. You can set up custom virtual networks and custom user roles to match your existing workflow.


Benefits of Remote.It

There are many benefits to using Remote.It as your networking solution of choice. Here are just a few:

Improved Security

Remote.It provides a high level of security that is unmatched by traditional networking solutions. 

  • Zero Trust least privileged access grants user control to individual services, not devices or subnets.
  • Eliminate external attack surfaces by removing private resources from the public internet. Bot and malicious actors can't attack what they can't see.
  • End to end data encryption

Greater Flexibility

Remote.It offers a high degree of flexibility, allowing you to customize your connections to suit your needs. Simplify onboarding and offboarding new employees, contractors, and vendors by applying custom roles to users.

Create virtual networks that align with your existing workflow. If you have a group of database admins, create a virtual network of just databases and the admins who should have access without over provisioning access to manually granting access individually to each database.

Increased Productivity

With Remote.It, users can access their devices remotely from anywhere in the world. The more significant productivity improvement is eliminating manual network configuration for admins. Admins no longer need to plan, maintain, and debug IP address ranges, subnet collisions, access control lists, VLAN tags, and more. Remote.It eliminates network configuration.

Simplified Networking

Remote.It simplifies networking by eliminating the need for complex and unreliable port forwarding. Manage users and the resources you want to grant access to without worrying about public cloud IP route tables, IP address overlaps, subnet collisions, and more.

Cost-Effective

Remote.It is a cost-effective solution that offers unmatched value for money. With Remote.It:

  • Organizations can scale remote access without purchasing and maintaining VPN gateways.
  • Eliminate person-hours spent maintaining and debugging network configurations.
  • Expedite onboarding and offboarding employees, contractors, and vendors.
  • Subscription plans are available for everyone from personal accounts to the largest enterprises in the world. Read our case studies.
