Another alternative if your environment is predominately Windoze is
TridiaVNCPro. I am currently deploying this product. Tridia "wraps" the
AT&T Labs UK vnc product with end to end encryption and provides a console
view of available hosts, similar to what "VNC Desk" attempts to do.
Integration of ftp for file transfer is promised, but late. TVNCPro will
interact with the native AT&T product and presumably other vnc variants,
but without encryption. This product isn't free, but the per-seat price is
quite reasonable, especially compared with products like PCAnywhere.

I doubt I'm the first to suggest it, but you could try using TightVNC
(www.tightvnc.com) through an SSH tunnel. TightVNC is a stripped down
version of AT&T Labs' VNC with a few optimizations & bugfixes.
I found the performance boost using TightVNC to be marginal on local
connections but noticeable across WANs. Of course, this may not be
practical in every situation...

We used to use VNC on some systems on our network, but found it to be to
slow and very unsecure. through a google search off of this list I think,
we found a tool anyone can download to crack the vnc password. You can
also
go into the registery searching for vnc and guess what... There is the
password in clear text.
Guess you get what ya pay for...

RADMIN (Remote Administrator) is better and more secure. Windows only
though.
