Control Multiple Computers with Single Keyboard and Mouse

Many time there might be scenario where we have to work on multiple systems at a time. For instance, when you work on your home PC and office laptop at the same time, In that case we often get puzzled between the mouse and keyboards while switching frequently.

Mouse without borders is software comes handy which handle  these problem since it helps you control
more than one computer with a single mouse and keyboard. It even lets you share files between multiple
computers by copying your desired files and simply dragging and dropping them to the desired screen, share
clipboard text, and access multiple computers using a single mouse and keyboard.Keyboard
will work on that system only on which the mouse pointer is currently appearing.
You can connect up to 4 computers together using Mouse without Borders and use single mouse and keyboard on multiple system.It also allows you to send and receive quick screenshots, and personalize your logon screen in Windows 7 PC



One Limitation of this software is that if you are looking for a software to access PC at a remote
location, then there is no any option. It let’s you control another system, but that system has to be near your
own system so that you can view the transfer of files or access of files or applications on another system.
