Did you know you can use just one set of keyboard and mouse to control multiple computers simultaneously, even if the computers are remotely located? This article will show you how to do it in a very simple way that even a tech novice can do in just 5 minutes.
Benefits of Controlling Multiple Computers at the Same Time
Imagining you are operating several computers, switching between different keyboards and mouses frustrates you. If you can control all the computers using just one set of keyboard and mouse, that can really improve efficiency.
Imagine you are away from home, and you can use just a laptop to remotely manage multiple computers at home or at the office!
If you are an IT engineer who needs to provide technical support to all employees of the company, you can check and solve problems for multiple computers at the same time without leaving your workstation, saving time and effort.
Using DeskIn Remote Software to Control Multiple Computers at the Same Time
DeskIn is a remote software that allows you to easily access and control remote devices. You can control multiple devices at the same time with a local keyboard and mouse. DeskIn has a very good connection quality——image quality can reach 4K60FPS, and no disconnection problem. The keyboard and mouse are mapped perfectly for either MacBook or Windows PC, making it very smooth and easy to use.
Step 1: Download and Register a DeskIn Account
Download DeskIn on all of your computers, register for a free account and log in.
Note: On your first log in to a new device, you need to complete an email verification, which is to protect the security of your account.
Step 2: Connect the Devices
If all your devices have logged into the same account, you can find them on the "Device list". Select the device you want to control and click "Remote control" on the toolbar on the right, then you are connected to the device.
You can all connect to the devices with "Device ID". Open DeskIn on the local device or the one that has connected to the keyboard and mouse you want to use. Enter the "Device ID" of the computer you want to control, click "Connect" then you are connecting to the device. You can use Password or Password-free method to verify the connection.
"Password-free" verification means you need to manually agree to the connection request on the controlled device. We recommend you to set security password on "Settings" >> "Security settings". In this way, even if the device you wanna control is remote located, you can connect it unattended.
Step 3: Control Multiple Computers with One Keyboard and Mouse
If you want to control multiple devices, just repeat step 2. DeskIn has no limit to the number of computers that can be controlled simultaneously. You can display the computer windows in full-screen mode——you have to switch tabs to control different computers, or multi-screen mode, which allows you to display all the computer screens at the same time.
Here is an example:
Full-Screen Mode: Controls MacBook and Windows Computers Simultaneously
Multi-Screen Mode: Control MacBook and Windows Computers Simultaneously
Whether you are controlling a MacBook or Windows, DeskIn can perfectly map the keyboard and mouse for hassle-free use. The free version supports logging in on 3 devices, and the paid version supports logging in on 100 devices, allowing you to do fast and convenient connection.
