Tótem Computer is a company that creates powerful, well-designed computer products and services for human creators, professionals, and gamers.
Our first product, Tótem Cloud PC, allows you to easily access powerful cloud-based computers to work, study or play on-demand from any device.
Your Tótem Cloud PC is a computer somewhere else in the world (commonly a virtual machine in a data center) you can rent and use online to run your software and save your files.
You can use your Cloud PC as you would a high-performance laptop or workstation computer.
Choose a model with the specs that work for you and run Windows, browse the internet, transfer files, and use your software and games on your Cloud PC.
You can connect to your cloud PC and use it with many devices, old or new:
- New or old laptops and desktop PCs
- Chromebooks
- Smartphones
- Tablets
- Stream sticks
- Smartwatches
- PDA's
- 💡 Whatever works your imagination
We challenge our team and users to find the most creative ways to access their Tótem Cloud PCs.
Cloud PCs come from different providers, servers, and locations worldwide.
When looking for a Cloud PC, choosing a machine within the range from where you plan to use it is essential.
We don't region-lock or limit what cloud computer you can subscribe to.
Every Cloud PC on our marketplace has a coverage section on its product page.
You access your Cloud PC by essentially streaming the content of its "screen" and "speakers" to your device and sending your inputs over the internet.
Your experience connecting and using your Cloud PC can vary depending on:
- The quality and speed of your internet connection
- The physical distance between your device and your cloud PC
- The app you use to connect remotely (Tótem Web Desktop, Parsec, Microsoft RDP, etc.)
⚠️ Artifacts, audio glitches, and delays may appear during your experience if you have a slow or unstable internet connection.
✅ You should generally achieve a stable, usable session if you:
- Have a minimum internet speed of 20 Mbps (megabits-per-second) upload/download on your end
- Pick a machine that is within range of the location you will be connecting from (this info is available for all Cloud PCs)
- Use an ethernet cable instead of Wi-Fi or cellular
- Use an appropriate remote desktop app for your use-case
You'll find machine controls and a fast and easy way to connect to your Cloud PC on My Tótem Computer.
Our included remote desktop solution lets you access your Cloud PC using your browser and works well for quick tasks, essential use, office work, and internet browsing.
You can install and use other remote desktop software on both your Cloud PC and your Access Device, depending on what you need:
- For quick access, browsing the internet, and general computing, we recommend our included Tótem Web Desktop
- For gaming, multimedia, and CAD/CAM, we recommend using a solution like Parsec (only compatible with Tótem Pro Graphics)
- For Tótem Pro Works and iPad/iPhone users, we recommend Microsoft Desktop Connection, AnyDesk, or TeamViewer
- For advanced users and features, like device forwarding and multiple screen support, we recommend solutions from Citrix, Oracle, and VMware
⚠️ Some remote desktop apps require specific components on the Cloud PC and may not work with all models offered on the marketplace.
Lag is an undesired delay between the inputs you send from your device and the response from your Cloud PC (and vice-versa). Lag can happen for various reasons:
- Unstable or slow internet connection on your end
- You're physically very far from the server (outside coverage area)
- You're connecting on a very slow or obsolete device
- Server maintenance from the Cloud PC provider
If any of the previous were to happen, the remote desktop app you choose might adjust its image quality or resolution to reduce bandwidth use.
