While Remote Desktop Server (RDS) is the most popular and feature-rich solution, there are other less costly options. We’ll steer you clear of those that are a high security risk. 

This login screenshot shows us that RDS is a web-based application, so as you’d expect, it can be reached from either a Windows or Mac device. Being a Microsoft product, we do find that users get their best experience by using the Internet Explorer browser. 

One major advantage is that employees can use their home computer, so the requirement to only use a company laptop is not necessary.
