Apr 23, 2018 at 14:21 comment added Jeff Zeitlin There are free VNCs out there; I just don't remember the specific implementation names. As I recall, Dameware is a purchase-once, not a SAAS or annual license.
Apr 23, 2018 at 14:04 comment added Ben VNC is even a bit more expensive than TeamViewer. Dameware is not quite clear, there is the price of 1 technician which is 215 $. Is it per year or once?
Apr 23, 2018 at 13:30 comment added Jeff Zeitlin Then RDP isn't going to be your answer. Dameware does allow you to lock out the user's keyboard and mouse if needed; I don't know if VNC has that facility.

Apr 23, 2018 at 13:21 comment added Ben Thank you, will have a look at it! Obviously I missed another important aspect: The user at the client PC must not see such a lock screen relatively something more "user friendly" would be better.
Apr 23, 2018 at 12:04 comment added Jeff Zeitlin While Dameware and RDP are both Windows only, I believe VNC is available for Linux and MacOS, and thus there is the possibility of using it cross-platform.
