LogMeIn Hamachi

LogMeIn Hamachi is a hosted virtual‑private‑network service that creates LAN‑like connections over the internet. Users can establish virtual networks on demand through a web interface, allowing remote machines to communicate as if they were on the same local subnet. The system supports several topologies—including gateway, hub‑and‑spoke, and mesh—to suit different access patterns, and it runs in the background for unattended connectivity.

The service provides centralized management of networks and client software, enabling administrators to provision, configure, and restore virtual networks from any location. Access controls are handled centrally, with password management, network locking, and membership enforcement. Communications are encrypted with AES‑256‑bit keys, and the platform offers options for full, restricted, or minimal client interfaces.

It is targeted at teams and individuals who need secure, on‑demand network extensions across multiple devices and operating systems, including macOS. The offering includes a free tier for up to five computers and subscription plans for larger deployments.
