Hi Greg, The utility of remote control software is related to the number of people who want to use it, and the number of machines they can remotely control.
Some remote control software is sold in pairs (server + viewer). Some remote control software is sold by the "seat". RealVNC sells the Enterprise Edition software by the number of machines which can be remotely controlled, regardless of the number of viewers. There is an extremely advantageous volume discount, which decays to just over USD 1 per copy in large volumes. This makes Enterprise Edition one of the most competitively priced remote control products around.
