Many of the remote access tools have changed to similar payment models,
and lots have discontinued access to any kind of free service.

Yes I used to use LogMeIn until they started to charge exorbitant prices and
totally stopped their free service. That had one advantage over Teamviewer
and RealVNC that you didn't need to install a client package: you just
contacted their webserver and logged in, and everything was done from a web
interface.
