You need to use a hardware license dongle from your home office. Your accounting team needs to access a scanner connected to a PC on the 3rd floor. Your engineering team wants to share a specialized programmer without passing a single flash drive around the room.
Have you used USB over IP solutions before? What’s your nightmare USB-sharing story? Let me know in the comments below.
Compared to buying a dedicated hardware USB extender ($300+) or the productivity loss from physically moving dongles, it pays for itself quickly. USB Network Gate is one of those tools you don’t know you need until you need it desperately. It’s reliable, cross-platform, and solves a genuine pain point that native operating systems ignore.
We live in a connected world, but one physical tether remains stubbornly in place: the USB cable.
But for 95% of business USB devices—dongles, printers, card readers, input devices, serial adapters—it works remarkably well. USB Network Gate is developed by Eltima Software . It’s not free (except for a 14-day fully functional trial). Pricing starts around $159.95 for a single commercial license (one server, one client). Site licenses and volume discounts are available.
