Mike, Teamviewer is free but use it too often and they will disable it as they sus that it is being used for commercial use.
As per others on here I am a great advocate for Splashtop which has really matured, handles sound, video, printing and multi screens no problem. Not free but very reasonable for such a product.
Free is OK but not if it doesn't do what you want!

Customer is a small business and NOT tech savvy at all (so don't suggest "UltraVNC configured oh so cool!"). I warned her you get what you pay for many times, but said I'd research it. I use TeamViewer and it's great for me but overkill for her. TV has a free license but the wording appears to be such that it's for accessing your personal home computer from work (not the other direction). LogMeIn (as we've noted here) kept jacking up prices, and they have no more free version. I've got a question into gotomypc.com to see if unattended access is an option for their product (although it's not free either). I have no problem telling a client that free isn't possible but I did say I'd check first. GotoMyPC's pricing isn't bad for the single user if she can use it in unattended access mode: https://get.gotomypc.com/plansandpricing
Other suggestions based on your experience?
