As radial velocity data, photometry is very important in order to characterize an exoplanet. Photometry of long orbital period transiting exoplanet ,such as those discovered by space-based photometry (CoRoT, Kepler) or from radial velocity are difficult to obtain from the ground. Larger professional telescope cost a lot and generally are busy for observing in photometry for a large amount of nights. We are following up transiting exoplanets with the Oversky remote observatory, which is dedicate to exoplanet photometry and located at La Palma Island (canary), and tele-operate from France via internet. One year after the installation, we reach professionals precisions that permit us to start collaboration with professionals' astronomers. We will present our remote observatory as well as we will highlight our results and compare them with professional telescope accuracy.
