Stable product but hard to integrate
Adobe Connect is not bad for connecting and integrating for remote connecting and video streaming. I think it was not bad, actually.  I don't integrate it in my project. Some other guys work on that. But I think they had some sort of problems with integration with that product. But, they managed to…

Allows an ease of access to various systems and has a straightforward setup process
The product allows easy access to any system in case of any issues We cannot see the number of monitors working on the system simultaneously. It becomes complicated to switch from one monitor to another for different windows. The product's stability depends on the network's stability in our…

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"It is straightforward to set up."
"I like Adobe Connect because of its flexibility."
"It trains providers for on-premise deployment in several locations."
"It is a stable product."
"The product has valuable communication features. It also has good performance and stability."
"The solution can scale well."
"The most critical feature is the POA, but Breakout sessions are definitely my favorite."
"Screen share and document share are good features."
"It is quite simple to set up."
"TeamViewer is a step ahead of solutions like, for example, AnyDesk."
"It's a user-friendly product."
"The solution is scalable."
"The most valuable feature of TeamViewer is its ease of use."
"I have found the solution to be user-friendly even for beginners. It is not that sophisticated. There are different types of security features available, such as encryption and random machine ID."
"The most valuable feature of TeamViewer is user-friendliness."
"It saves trips to customer sites, which saves time. I am able to get in there remotely and fix things."
 

Cons

"Other solutions have more marketing and more visibility. Nobody knows Adobe Connect exists."
"Adobe's products are difficult to grasp."
"It needs faster and easier upgrades."
"We would like to see support for exportable files that have been uploaded into Adobe Connect as templates for activities."
"The price is a problem."
"Interface and layout options could be improved."
"I would like to see btter integration."
"We encounter issues while connecting headphones via Bluetooth. This particular area needs improvement."
"It should have ability to display notes in the computer list."
"You can't configure multiple, unattended control passwords on the Mac. On the Mac, there's only one. On Windows, there are multiple unattended control passwords. I have people in different departments. My infrastructure people need to control a server and my developers may need to go into that same server. But I don't want them to have the same password... on the Mac, it can be done but it's extremely clunky and problematic."
"The support could improve their speed."
"It would be very helpful if they could provide a manual for the installation process and describe more of their features."
"The business interface is clunky and not well-documented."
"TeamViewer has a legacy and may not be using the latest UI trends."
"The stability of TeamViewer is good, but it could be better."
"I would like to see something like a TeamViewer mobile application for iOS or possibly Android. I think this would be fantastic given how technology is evolving today. It would be beneficial to use it with your smartphone."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Adobe Connect is free of cost."
"It is expensive."
"The purchasing process is complicated. It would be beneficial if it were more simplified."
"It does what I need it to do but I think it's expensive. It wasn't easy for me to get approval from the company to get it... It's costing us about $700 a year, per license."
"I used the free version of TeamViewer."
"There is no license needed to use TeamViewer."
"There is a free and paid version of this solution. I am currently using the free version."
"It has probably saved us several thousands of dollars because we have quick access anywhere. We don't have to worry about finding people onsite or arranging conference calls. We also save time and money with it because we don't have to send somebody onsite to troubleshoot."
"We are using the free version of TeamViewer."
"We have a permanent license and the price is reasonable."
"We have an annual subscription that is just under $1,900 with no additional costs. We get these promotions about upgrades and stuff like that, but we haven't had a need to add more seats. Users can also use TeamViewer for home use with a non-commercial free license."
