Introducing Remote Support: Browser-Based Screen Sharing for 25¢/Hour
Remote desktop software has been stuck in the same paradigm for decades: install an agent on both machines, pay a monthly subscription, and hope the NAT traversal works. We built something different.
What Is Remote Support?
Remote Support on 25cent.cloud lets you start a browser-based remote desktop session by sharing a link. The person on the other end clicks it — no downloads, no installs, no accounts required. You see their screen and can take control instantly.
It's designed for the real-world use cases IT professionals, MSPs, and freelancers face every day:
- Helpdesk tickets — "Can you show me what's happening?" becomes a one-click link
- Client support — Walk a client through a configuration issue in real-time
- Training sessions — Take control of a trainee's screen to demonstrate a workflow
- Quick fixes — SSH into a server is great, but sometimes you need to see the GUI
Built-in Collaboration Tools
Every Remote Support session includes tools that competitors charge extra for:
- Real-time chat — No need to switch to Slack or Teams during a session
- File transfer — Drag and drop files between machines. Send a config file, a patch, or a log export
- Voice calls — Built-in voice communication so you can talk through the issue
- Session recording — Record the entire session for compliance, training, or documentation
No-Install Architecture
Traditional remote desktop tools require agents on both machines. That means:
- Convincing users to download and install software
- Dealing with corporate firewall restrictions
- Managing agent updates across hundreds of machines
- Paying per-seat licensing regardless of usage
Pricing That Makes Sense
TeamViewer starts at $50/month. AnyDesk starts at $15/month. Most sessions last 15-30 minutes.
With 25cent.cloud, you pay 1 quarter per hour (25¢/hour). A typical 30-minute support session costs one quarter. No monthly fees, no per-seat pricing, no annual contracts.
For an MSP handling 20 support sessions per month averaging 30 minutes each, that's $5/month instead of $50-$200/month with traditional tools.
Getting Started
- Log into your 25cent.cloud dashboard
- Navigate to Remote Support
- Click "Start Session" and configure your options
- Share the generated link with the remote user
- They click the link — you're connected
API Integration
Integrate Remote Support into your existing ticketing system:
```
POST /api/remote-support/sessions
Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN
Content-Type: application/json
{
"duration": 1,
"enableChat": true,
"enableFileTransfer": true,
"enableVoice": true
}
```
The response includes a session URL you can embed in your ticket, paste in a chat, or send via email.
Security First
Every session is encrypted end-to-end via TLS 1.3. Session tokens are unique and non-reusable. When the session ends, all data — recordings, transferred files, chat history — is permanently purged. There's no persistent agent running on either machine, so there's nothing to exploit after the session ends.
