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

"I like Adobe Connect because of its flexibility."
"The solution can scale well."
"Screen share and document share are good features."
"It is a stable product."
"The most critical feature is the POA, but Breakout sessions are definitely my favorite."
"It trains providers for on-premise deployment in several locations."
"The product has valuable communication features. It also has good performance and stability."
"It is straightforward to set up."
"I have been satisfied with TeamViewer overall."
"We also use it a lot for remote site assistance. We've set up our internal authentication for unattended access to our remote sites. That makes it very easy and convenient to remotely connect with our users and our client machines whenever we need to. It's set as a direct, secure connection. As long as the station has internet access, we can see it and it makes remote support very simple."
"The dashboards they have are good."
"The solution is a very good tool for monitoring and for remote access. Anyone is able to use it, it is simple to use."
"The product is easy to install."
"It's pretty easy to use. Just key in an ID and password and connect. For meetings, just enter the meeting ID and connect."
"The most important feature of TeamViewer is its ease of use."
"It's very easy to set up."
 

Cons

"We would like to see support for exportable files that have been uploaded into Adobe Connect as templates for activities."
"It needs faster and easier upgrades."
"The price is a problem."
"We encounter issues while connecting headphones via Bluetooth. This particular area needs improvement."
"Other solutions have more marketing and more visibility. Nobody knows Adobe Connect exists."
"Adobe's products are difficult to grasp."
"Interface and layout options could be improved."
"I would like to see btter integration."
"I have noticed that when I access another person's computer, sometimes the tab is visible, and sometimes it is not, which can be difficult."
"Support for mobile devices from Linux has been missing since the Native client was rolled out. This was a nice option, especially when trying to walk somebody who was struggling to understand something on their phone."
"I would like to see TeamViewer support multiple platforms."
"TeamViewer could be more secure."
"TeamViewer is expensive, and you get a limited number of connections for your money."
"The solution could improve by increasing or removing the time limitation on the use of a session."
"Sometimes we'll have a device in the field, and I'll click on remote control and it says "Can't authenticate." I'll double click in a different part of the TeamViewer interface and it'll say "Can't authenticate." Then I'll do it a third time and it connects. It's possible that it's just bad luck. It's also very possible that it's some bug within TeamViewer..."
"TeamViewer has a legacy and may not be using the latest UI trends."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The purchasing process is complicated. It would be beneficial if it were more simplified."
"Adobe Connect is free of cost."
"It is expensive."
"We are using the free version of TeamViewer."
"TeamViewer offers a free version to try. Download and give it a shot. See what it's like and if you like it, then buy the license for it."
"It would be nice if it is cheaper."
"There is a free and paid version of this solution. I am currently using the free version."
"We have a corporate license. The maximum amount number of users changes based on the amount you pay. E.g., with our license, there is a maximum amount of users who can use the solution at the same time (10 users)."
"The price of the license could be less expensive."
"TeamViewer was willing to give us a one-year package. Whereas, a lot of the other companies that we explored were paid by the month or quarter. It's just easier for our finance people at the college if we can make a one-time yearly payment."
"I am using the free version of TeamViewer. There is a subscription fee to use the premium features."
