    Excellent multiseat solution, much lighter than VMs

    Date: Mar 07 2026

    Summary: I have been using ASTER to share my high-spec gaming rig with my family, and it works perfectly. We can both use the computer at the same time without any performance issues. It is a much better and lighter solution than setting up complex virtual machines with GPU passthrough. Highly recommended!

    Positive: The ability to turn a single PC into two independent workstations is incredible. It saves a significant amount of money on hardware since I didn't need to buy a second CPU or motherboard. The drag-and-drop device assignment is very intuitive and works flawlessly with zero lag.

    Negative: The initial configuration can be slightly confusing if you are not tech-savvy, especially when assigning specific USB devices. It would be helpful if the documentation for new users was a bit more simplified.

    Edited: Feb 19 2026

    Aster Software

    Date: Feb 17 2026

    Summary: I didn't have any problems after installing, but after using Aster, I was surprised at how well it works. No problem at all

    Positive: Easy To Use. Very good compatibility with most software. ASTER does not require a powerful PC, unlike a VM, it is easy to set up - just drag the icon to the right place and despite the fact that the license is paid, the savings on hardware will completely cover the cost of the license. Moreover, the savings on electricity will be long-term and only it will fully pay off the license. Good support that responds promptly and helps with any problems that arise!

    Negative: I didn't notice any disadvantages for myself in this program, everything is fine.

    Aster in a home environment

    Date: Dec 20 2025

    Summary: I like Aster, I would recommend it to anyone who has a moderate to high performance PC as it allows you and your team to multitask seamlessly for the tasks that really matter.

    Positive: I like how seamless ASTER makes sharing my computer with family members for doing school work simultaneously. I appreciate that it solves the problem of having to buy additional computers, especially when the whole household needs to go online for various things such as studying, writing emails, exploring, and even playing games. This is especially noticeable when my father does his work documenting, he is a landscaper and does not know a lot about computers, so me being able to emulate having his own desktop works super well and Aster makes the managing of accounts very easy. I like that ASTER allows me to get my money's worth out of the hardware I already have without needing individual computers for everyone in my household. The ability to set up multiple profiles on my system is particularly helpful. The initial setup was very easy, and familiarizing myself with the user interface was fast. Their customer support is also really helpful if you need a question answered.

    Negative: Aster is not widely recognized by applications and can set off red flags if used in the wrong application.

    ASTER Turned Our Single PC into Two

    Date: Dec 12 2025

    Summary: I love using ASTER because it allows my brother and me to have two separate profiles on two different monitors using the same PC. This is fantastic as it feels like having two different PCs just by adding an additional monitor, keyboard, and mouse, so there's no need to buy an extra CPU. It's very simple to use, and once everything is set up, I don't have to do it again and again, plus it doesn't lag. What stands out is how easy it is to switch setups or adjust things if needed, and the interface is very easy to understand. The initial setup was super easy and user-friendly; it didn't take me a lot of time to understand.

    Positive: 1. Lets two people use one PC at the same time.
    2. Saves a lot of money since there’s no need to buy a second computer.
    3. Easy to use once everything is set up.
    4. Works smoothly for everyday tasks and even light gaming.
    5. Doesn’t interfere with other software.

    Negative: I think if someone doesn't know anything or is literally not 1% techy, then they will have to watch videos to set it up at first.

    Aster V7 For Gaming Expirence

    Edited: Aug 25 2025

    Summary: It’s awesome! Even if a particular game doesn’t work, it’s only a minor inconvenience, you can still jump into another title on the second PC at the same time.

    Positive: Aster V7 is the best solution for dividing your PC’s power to enjoy a full gaming experience across different titles. While it’s possible to achieve something similar with virtual machines, the input lag is high and the overall experience is poor. Aster v7 stands out as the only truly flexible piece of software that lets you game as if you were using two separate computers at the same time different titles.

    Negative: When it comes to gaming, cooperative play on the same computer is not always possible, but that’s not a limitation of Aster V7. Instead, it’s due to certain anti-cheat systems that some games implement, which interfere with the “two PCs in one” method. However, for the vast majority of gaming titles, this setup works perfectly.

    A Valuable Tool for Earth Observation and Environmental Research

    Date: Jun 06 2025

    Summary: Overall, ASTER is a powerful and important tool in Earth science. It helps solve real-world problems like glacier melting, volcanic activity, and deforestation. Even though it doesn’t offer real-time data, its detailed imagery supports better decision-making and a deeper understanding of how our planet is changing.

    Positive: ASTER provides high-resolution, multispectral images that are incredibly useful for studying Earth's surface. I especially like its ability to create 3D maps and detect temperature variations, which help monitor natural disasters, climate change, and land use. The data it provides is critical for scientists, educators, and policymakers worldwide.

    Negative: Some of the satellite data is not updated frequently. It can take a long time to get recent images.

    Date: May 18 2025

    Summary: My overall experience has been very positive. ASTER has improved productivity in my workspace, allowing multiple people to use the same machine at the same time. Although there are a few areas for improvement, it is an excellent investment due to the savings and efficiency it provides.

    Positive: I liked that it allows you to split a single computer into multiple workstations easily. It's an affordable and functional solution for educational or work environments. The installation was quick, and the interface is user-friendly. It also optimizes system resource usage, helping to extend the lifespan of equipment.

    Negative: It can have issues with certain Windows updates, and it would be helpful to have more documentation available in Spanish.
