Professional vs. Personal Usage of AnyDesk Remote Desktop
What is professional usage?
At AnyDesk, we define professional usage as follows: Any use or connection from, to or within a professional environment or network is professional use. While there is a wide range of different use cases that require a license, there are some use cases that are very typical for professional usage:
Remote Support
Providing excellent IT Support for customers and clients is a typical professional use case. Whether offering efficient IT Support, a Help Desk or Mobile Support, Remote Support via AnyDesk solves any IT problem.
Remote Work
There are more places than a corporate office building to work from. Whether you work from home, on the go, or hybrid, AnyDesk provides a Remote Work Solution that creates the right conditions to be productive and creative.
Remote Access
Whether you want to manage multiple devices, maintain and monitor computers or control high-performance machines in a business environment, AnyDesk allows IT professionals to access them stably, securely and across all platforms.

Please understand that in order to continue offering our solution free of charge to personal users, we need to detect professional use through regular monitoring. This is, ultimately, so we can keep supporting our free users. We aim to keep AnyDesk free for personal users. In order to do so, we need to make sure that users falling under professional use cases purchase a license, as agreed by our terms and conditions.
Thanks to every professional user with a paid license, personal users can support family and friends in need. Help us to help them!
AnyDesk helps me to support my wife's cousin who is in a long-term facility and needs assistance with her Android tablet from time to time. She is so grateful for this support.
