Is there a free or open source software like 'JoinMe' ?
I need to share my computer screen with others for work but I can't afford to pay for 'JoinMe' right now.
Are there any free alternatives of at least something cheaper?
TIA

Matt and Paul,
Thanks! I can use Team Viewer as a personal account because I am a contractor. Just need a way to show other contractors the live steps I am taking on my own PC. I am on a job right now. Let me try downloading Team Viewer and come back.

then you are using it for business use, your business

Personal use means home, family friends. You're a contractor. You should pay for it and expense it as part of your business.
How many users are you sharing with? If it's just 2 others, you can get a free webex account.
I recommend against Aeroadmin. The whois information shows that the registrant is based in Russia and it looks like a Teamviewer copy. Their screenshots of the interface looks the same as Teamviewer. They didn't even change the layout. Other than the name, it seems to be an outright theft of the interface. That already makes me distrust them.
Unless someone in Europe can verify that company and the product, I would not trust it. All of these screen sharing software that bypass NAT use a server. That means they can control the data that their tools pass through. Whether it's safe or not depends on whether you can trust them. It's also not a majorly known company. If you're in the USA, you should just go with TeamViewer and avoid AeroAdmin.

JoinMe used to be free for personal use but now it seems they only give you 7 days free?
