Remote Spark Corp. is a remote access software company based in Calgary, Canada. Its flagship product, Spark View, is an HTML5-based remote desktop solution. It consists of Spark Gateway, a WebSocket/HTTP gateway, and a client-side JavaScript library. The goal is to let users access internal RDP, VNC, SSH, and Telnet hosts directly from a browser without installing client plugins.
From a feature perspective, Spark View is closer to an enterprise remote access gateway than a standalone remote-control tool. It supports RDP RemoteApp, RemoteFX, RD Web Access Portal, Hyper-V console access, session recording/playback, session shadowing, remote assistance, file sharing, clipboard redirection, printing, audio and microphone redirection, and more. Browser support covers Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Opera, IE10, and other environments with WebSocket/Canvas support. Its JavaScript library and integration guides make it possible to embed Spark View into custom web applications, making it suitable for OEM use, portal integration, and hosted service scenarios.
Spark Gateway needs to be installed between the client and the RDP host, indicating that the product is geared toward self-hosted deployments where enterprises can centrally control access resources and redirection policies. Integration information is relatively extensive, covering Active Directory, OpenID, LDAP, Radius, two-factor authentication, SAML/OAuth2, Kerberos, SNMP, Syslog, F5, HTTP Proxy, and more. On the documentation side, the website lists an administrator manual, integration guide, SAML/F5 integration documentation, plugin examples, and version history, with administrator manuals available in both Chinese and English. However, the crawled content does not confirm how frequently the documentation is updated or how complete the API reference is.
The Community edition costs $0/year, is limited to 2 concurrent connections, and is intended for personal use. Professional is priced at $60/year per concurrent connection, while Enterprise is $96/year per concurrent connection. A 45-day free evaluation is available, after which only 2 concurrent connections are allowed. Commercial purchases require contacting sales, and payment methods are not disclosed.
Its strengths include pure HTML5 access, zero client installation, broad protocol coverage, complete enterprise RDP features, and support for recording/auditing and identity integrations. Its weaknesses are that the website feels somewhat traditional, while open-source status, SLA, compliance certifications, support tiers, and payment methods are unclear. Some Android/BlackBerry/Java product information also appears dated. Spark View is better suited to schools, enterprise IT teams, remote work portals, hosted desktop service providers, and development teams that need to embed remote access into their own systems.
The crawled text does not provide information about accessibility from mainland China, node locations, ICP filing, or local payment options, so this remains unknown. If using it in China, you should focus on verifying gateway deployment location, browser connection latency, RDP audio/video experience, and the sales/payment process. Alternatives to compare include Apache Guacamole, noVNC, MeshCentral, RustDesk, and Microsoft RD Web.
