If real-time collaboration is a crucial part of your workflow, Parsec is a clear winner. However, if you’re looking for a tool with higher frame rates and customizable features, Moonlight would be the better choice. The lack of native HDR support in both tools can be a drawback for certain workflows.

Parsec is well-suited for games with few changes in the scene between frames as in strategy and puzzle genres. Moonlight is, across the board, a performant software for streaming on GCP. Despite the lengthy setup for Moonlight, the quality of the stream is worth the temporal investment for first-person-shooter and role-playing games.
