Parsec and Splashtop are both remote desktop tools that allow users to access and manage their computers from different devices (Windows, macOS, iOS and Android). Both services offer quality and secure screen-streaming and multi-user access for collaborative work.

But Parsec (that launched in 2016) is primarily designed for gamers and creative professionals who use high-traffic applications. That's why it's optimized for low-latency streaming and high frame rates. It offers a free tier that has some limitations.

Splashtop (2006) is aimed at business users and IT professionals and usually used for remote support, collaboration and managing LAN computers. It provides more extensive features, including file transfer, remote printing and session recording. Splashtop operates on a subscription model with various pricing plans.
