Prominent pros & cons

PROS

Parallels Access demonstrates strong stability during operations.
Total deployment can be managed completely remotely with Parallels Access.
Parallels Access offers flexible licensing policies that benefit customers with intermittent usage needs.
Users gain full access and control over computers remotely through Parallels Access.
Parallels Access allows for comprehensive remote actions, enabling users to perform any task remotely as if they were directly using the host computer.

CONS

They could improve the reporting.
One challenge is that the application is limited to Windows servers only. If a customer has a Linux server, things get complicated. They should open it up a bit to be more compatible with different types of servers.
Parallels Access may not scale well for enterprises.
There is room for improvement in the pricing policy. The price point is pretty aggressive.
When transferring a file from an iPad or remote device to the computer, the copy-and-paste feature doesn't always work.
