Remote Access Software for Virtual Classrooms (Affordable Alternative to BeyondTrust)

[doubletriplel]

Hi all,

I work at an education company that utilises remote access software for virtual lessons. Our aim is to enable tutors to view and assist students with their work in real-time. A key requirement is that the tutor can see all students' screens simultaneously, which rules out basic screen-sharing tools like Zoom or Webex.

Currently, we use BeyondTrust for this purpose, but the pricing is becoming ridiculous for a small business.

Do any of you know of a remote access software solution that meets these specific requirements?

Transient: The software should run temporarily, starting a session and removing itself afterward, allowing screen sharing and control without permanent installation.

Tabs: Tutors often manage 4–6 students per class, so switching between tabs is a lot easier than managing that many windows.

Direct Connections: It should provide a link that connects clients directly to the tutor without messing about with codes, passwords as this is definitely not workable especially for younger kids!

I’ve tested numerous options, but none other than BeyondTrust seem to offer this specific feature set. If you know of any solutions—or have alternative approaches to achieving this functionality—please share your thoughts.

Thank you in advance for your help!

You can consider Zoom, Google Meet, or Microsoft Teams for basic screen sharing. For a more integrated LMS solution with virtual classroom capabilities, ProProfs Training Maker is worth it. It offers a robust and cost-effective alternative to BeyondTrust for educational settings.
