There were viable suggestions up in the beginning.

ScreenConnect and Comodo were, I believe, the leading recommendations. Only after the technical recommendations were exhausted did the discussion about Spanish appear to begin.

@DustinB3403 I could help you anytime you get stuck with Spanish, it is my native language.
As for the remote control, what do you normally use? What is different, besides the language, in this remote location that a new solution is needed?
It is true that some parts don't have great Internet but almost all the big cities wouldn't give you any trouble with a good ISP. In what part of Mexico is your remote office located?
I personally vpn to a jump box and rdp or Vnc to Windows machines. Some small locations I have them set with Splashtop, and it works decently.

Normally RDP, SSH and X11 forwarding for me. Used AnyDesk (anydesk.com/remote-desktop) a few times. Fast, very fast. Built by former TeamViewer devs AFAIK. Don't know about security...

X11 over NX .... even faster!

@scottalanmiller you already told me before, will check out NX. But as far as I understood, NX is creating new sessions like RDP?

It uses X11 under the hood. So yes.
