Where an Annual per Technician Bet Gets Awkward
Splashtop's prices are low, and the structure behind them is worth reading closely.
A License Is One Session at a Time
Splashtop Remote Support is priced per concurrent technician license (October 2026). Two technicians in sessions at once need two licenses, however many people share the pool.
A Computer Allowance per License
Option 1 manages 10 computers per license and Option 2 manages 300, rising to a 1,200 total, and beyond that is Enterprise by quote (October 2026). A growing fleet climbs a ladder.
A Year Paid Ahead
Prices are quoted per year, at $259 or $399 per concurrent technician (October 2026). The page does not say which is which, so confirm before you buy. Ours is monthly.
A Fair Word for Splashtop
At those prices Splashtop is cheaper than us for a long time, its Solo plan is $72 a year, and unlimited computers can be reached on demand with a session code (October 2026). Price alone favors them.
Who Should Weigh the Splashtop Price
Small Desks Counting Every Dollar
Solo is $6 a month and Pro is $8.25 per user a month, each billed annually at $72 and $99 (October 2026). Hard to beat for one person alone.
Fleets Past 1,200 Computers
The Remote Support ceiling is 1,200 managed computers across licenses, then Enterprise by quote (October 2026). Past that point, price is a quote.
Teams That Need Audit and SSO
Splashtop lists SSO, granular access controls, IP whitelisting, and cloud recording on Enterprise (October 2026). We set those up on Zoho Assist.
Choose Splashtop if
- Price is your first filter and technicians take turns
- You want a plain annual rate that is easy to compare
- A single user needs to reach their own computers
Choose Cascadia if
- Sessions overlap and you do not want a license each
- You want a monthly term and one invoice
- You want access reviewed and sessions tied to tickets
How a Move from Splashtop Runs
- 1
Count What You Actually Use
We list your technicians, the computers carrying unattended Splashtop, and how many sessions run at once. The license count you pay for often exceeds the count you need.
- 2
Check the Renewal Date
Splashtop bills annually, so we work backward from your renewal. Cutting over just after one is costly, so we plan around the term.
- 3
Stage the Zoho Assist Agents
Agents go out in batches, and each batch must report in before the next. Splashtop stays installed until Assist works on every machine.
- 4
Rebuild Access, Then Retire the Old Client
Technicians and device groups are rebuilt from the roles people hold now. The Splashtop client comes off once a full working cycle has passed.

Splashtop Alternative Questions
What a Splashtop license covers, where its limits sit, and what a move involves.
See Managed Zoho AssistStill have a question?
What does one Splashtop Remote Support license cover?
One technician in a session at a time, with an allowance of managed computers per license (October 2026). Option 1 manages 10 computers per license and Option 2 manages 300. Total capacity rises with each license up to 1,200.
Which price applies, $259 or $399?
The page lists both per concurrent technician per year and does not say which belongs to which option (October 2026). Ask Splashtop to confirm in writing before you buy.
What does Splashtop Solo cost?
$6 a month, or $72 billed annually, for individual users (October 2026). It includes unattended access from any device, file transfer, and remote printing. Pro is $8.25 per user a month, billed at $99 a year.
What does Splashtop Pro add?
Multi monitor support, role based access, chat, session recording, and up to 3 users into one computer (October 2026). Volume discounts are mentioned. Performance at $13 per user a month adds 4:4:4 color and 240 FPS.
Can I connect to unlimited computers?
The Remote Support listing says unlimited computers and mobile devices can be reached on demand with a session code (October 2026). Managed unattended computers are the ones capped at 1,200 across licenses.
What happens above 1,200 managed computers?
Splashtop moves you to Remote Support Enterprise, priced by quote (October 2026). It adds SSO, granular access controls, IP whitelisting, cloud recording, a service desk, unattended Android access, APIs, and an on premises option.
Does Splashtop bill monthly?
The plans show a monthly equivalent, but every price is billed annually (October 2026). A mistake in your license count stays with you until renewal.
How good is Splashtop support?
The pricing page links to technical support and a status page but lists no hours, tiers, or response times (October 2026). We reply within two business days from the people who configured your rollout.
Is Splashtop cheaper than you?
Yes, by a wide margin on license cost alone. $259 a year per technician is far below our plans, which start at $250 a month (October 2026). You pay us for the rollout, the access review, and the Desk connection.
Does Zoho Assist cap managed computers?
We do not size our plan by computer count. Zoho sets its own limits, and we configure agents and device groups to fit your fleet. We will tell you if your size would run into one.
Who holds the Zoho Assist license?
We do. It is billed within our monthly fee on one invoice, which makes Assist different from our other Zoho services. The subscription is in our name, so ask how it would transfer before signing.
What does the monthly fee cover?
Seats and their removal, agent rollout in batches, device groups and permissions, two factor, session recording, the Zoho Desk link, and a monthly access review. Plans begin at $250 a month.
Can you move us off Splashtop?
Yes. The move is mostly an audit of technicians, unattended computers, and the licenses you pay for. We stage Zoho Assist agents in batches and plan around your annual renewal date.
Can we cancel with you any time?
Yes. Service is month to month and ends on the last business day of the month you cancel in. Splashtop bills annually (October 2026), so line up your cutover with its renewal.
