Which VNC Software Is Recommended?

VNC remote access software getting started

The simplest way to access the VNC console is through the browser-based "Show screen" button in the Go2Cloud control panel. This requires no software installation and works from any modern web browser.

If you prefer a standalone VNC client for a smoother experience, the following are recommended:

  • TightVNC (Windows) - A lightweight, free VNC viewer that works reliably with our platform.
  • Vinagre (Linux) - The default remote desktop viewer on many Linux distributions.
  • RealVNC Enterprise Viewer - A more feature-rich commercial option with better performance.

Whichever client you choose, connect to your server's IP address on the VNC port shown in your control panel.
