Can confirm – we have many users remoting a computer at the office to run GIS on network.

If forced to do option 2 due to lack of office machines consider local copies or hosted cloud services

Definitely Option 1. ArcGIS is network heavy. Unless you have a blazing-fast (1 GB or better) internet connection Option 2 will be very slooooooooow.

Subject: Slow ArcGIS connection across VPN

*Message sent from a system outside of UConn.*

Hello,

Like many people nowadays I find myself working from home and having to use a VPN connection to get on our network at work.  Most of my work involves using ArcDesktop (v10.6.1) to directly connect to a SQL database or various file geodatabases either for editing or maintenance.  I am experiencing a significant lag and was wondering if anybody has any advice on what I can do to improve my productivity and keep my sanity! Things I have tried so far:

Option 1:  Use decent laptop to VPN into office network and Remote Desktop to my work PC, which at the time was still at the office.  This was working ok, but I was having a lot of dropped connections, every 10-15 clicks my RDP screen would just freeze. That might have had to do with my internet or the VPN client. To fix the dropped connections IT suggested I just take my Desktop PC home and just use the VPN.
Option 2:  Use VPN connection on work PC, which is now home. This is extremely slow,   I waited 5 minutes for Arc to open up a map and it takes 20-30 seconds for the map to redraw.

I did find a GeoNet post about this issue but it was from 2012. The consensus was that Option 1 was the way to go. Is that still the case? Is there anything else I could do? I know I could create a checkout replica to edit locally, but I am afraid of possible crashes when trying to sync back to the SDE.  I am now stuck with Option 2 but strongly considering going back to Option 1 as soon as I can get a laptop with ArcDesktop on it back into the office so I can RDP into it.

Thanks for any advice!
