The remote desktop access software Teamviewer has already been covered multiple times at Ghacks. It is an efficient software that requires barely any configuration to function properly which makes it excellent for technical support. It can also be used for presentations, file transfers and virtual private networks.
One interesting feature of Teamviewer is Teamviewer portable which is a portable version of the remote access software which provides the same feature set but adds portability to it.
The portable version of Teamviewer comes as a general version and one specifically designed for U3 devices. All that needs to be done is to download the archive from the Teamviewer homepage and unpack it to an USB device. The application can then be executed from there easily and will leave no traces on the system it is executed from.

Do you know any portable freeware alternatives?
As far as I understood the disclaimer you can use it freely for non commercial purposes.
I can verify that it works. You can even set the settings in TeamViewer.ini to “importsettings=1″ so that you can load an exported .ini setting files (tv.ini in the same directory) for the portable version. I tested and left the connection on for more than 10 minutes, so it’s definitely not a trial version (which usually limits connection time to 5 mins or so). It’s free for non-commercial use. TeamViewer is a great remote desktop application, and I’ve helped a few friends out by getting them to download the QuickSupport client. I guess I’ll be using the portable version on other PCs to access my own server that I leave on 24/7.
Teamviewer is a pretty cool service, but it gets a bit pricey once you use anything but their Free version. My helpdesk recently switched over to a service called Techinline (http://www.techinline.com) which I’m very happy with. First of all, it is a fraction of the price of most other tools out there, and it’s very easy to use which makes it perfect for supporting computer illiterate ppl who require remote support in the first place. Nobody even needs to install anything, and the slick thing about it is the customization and branding options which they offer at no extra cost. I’d say it’s a steal for what they charge
