What do you like best about Chrome Remote Desktop?

Chrome Remote Desktop is SUPER easy to set up, for you and for your end users, especially if Chrome is already widely integrated within your organization.

Unfortunately, as with many Google products, quality support is pretty limited from Google's end.
