Enables management of multiple operating systems with a single license
The best feature is that it's a Microsoft product, so if anything goes wrong, we get quick support for anything required. Remote system functionality allows us to sit anywhere and take control of any device via remote management. We can enhance security for clients' laptops with built-in Microsoft Defender, which is available with the Microsoft Intune license. We use it for reporting purposes through endpoint analytics. When pushing scripting, there are two types available: remediation script and reservation script. Through endpoint analytics, you can push defender policies to clients. It helps with reporting, inventory updates, and monitoring tenant status health.

Reliable remote access has improved secure collaboration and streamlined daily approvals
The best features TeamViewer Business offers in my opinion are collaboration, templates, a high level of security, and session recording. Collaboration allows me to collaborate remotely with my team members. Besides reconnecting automatically, it provides a high level of security, protecting from cyber attacks and aids in providing assurance in regulated environments through two-factor authentication and end-to-end encryption features. It also allows recording live sessions, which can be replayed as needed for future reference. TeamViewer Business has positively impacted my organization as collaboration has enhanced, especially remote collaboration by 60 to 70 percent. I have been able to collaborate with clients and other team members seamlessly. Enhanced workflow efficiency includes faster approvals and a lowered risk of data loss, misuse, and leak through robust features like two-factor authentication and end-to-end encryption. It also facilitates compliance using documentation and auditing through recordings and logs.

Easy to deploy, but scalability needs improvement
There are no specific challenges I faced while using the product. I haven't used the solution to support any AI-driven projects. In our company, we need to have remote access to our labs because if not, people have to move to the laboratory, and we will spend a lot of time working. I don't know the features of VNC Connect that improved our company's support capabilities. I rate the tool a six out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Microsoft Intune's autopilot has been nice to have."
"I can reach devices or computers over the internet. I don't need to worry about the network connectivity between the offices. I can manage any device. That is the most important part."
"It is a cloud-based service. It is easy to use and offers privacy."
"It significantly reduces the overhead associated with providing support."
"A great solution for anyone wanting a modern endpoint device management solution."
"The most valuable feature of Intune is the central dashboard for compliance and policy management."
"It has improved our organization through the remote management of non-domain joined devices."
"Intune simplifies compliance. The ability to manage software updates and policies on endpoints has helped us meet contract requirements."
"I’d advise users to go for it and try it out as it saves time for IT, allowing them to remote in from wherever they are so they don’t have to come to you and it makes troubleshooting simple."
"The solution is user-friendly and very flexible."
"TeamViewer is useful for accessing data and systems remotely. Using this application, I can access other computers using an ID number that I provide to the users whose laptop I would like to access."
"The most valuable feature of TeamViewer is its ease of use and beneficial remote access."
"The usability and graphic interface stand out for me because it is very easy to understand, with upper bars, all the features, and the file transfer functionality."
"We have a lot of remote offices, and without the ability to remotely control the computers at these properties, my job would be much more difficult to perform."
"Once you use it, you will never want to use another remote service product again."
"I have never had to contact customer support for any connection issues."
"The product’s ease of use and security are valuable."
"The most valuable features are that it is consistently low profile and consistently works without hiccups or headaches."
"The most valuable features are that it is consistently low profile and consistently works without hiccups or headaches."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is its ease of use."
 

Cons

"The biggest improvement could be in the implementation, the ease of the implementation of it."
"I find the price for Microsoft Intune too high, which represents an area for improvement in Microsoft's pricing model."
"What frustrates me the most is just waiting and tapping my fingers, uncertain about whether my changes will take effect."
"The major problem with this product is that there can be delays in the deployment of new policies."
"Intune could add more features that are relevant to the core application control functions. For example, it would be helpful if it had more control over the on-prem environment from the cloud platform. Greater Teams availability in the Saudi market would also be helpful."
"While no specific feature requires immediate improvement, the ongoing expansion of reporting and inventory capabilities promises to enhance its utility."
"The technical support could be improved."
"Sometimes the syncing is inconsistent. I'm confident that the devices are checking in every eight hours, but sometimes the devices aren't picking up the settings as quickly as I would expect."
"ITBrain should be embedded in the product and not an expensive add-on."
"The voice chat could be better."
"We’ve never really contacted technical support. I can’t really speak to how helpful they are as I don’t have much experience with them."
"It needs to have proper authentication. I would like to see in-depth integration with Google and Microsoft products, for example. It would be nice to have a cell phone version as well."
"I didn't like the fact that you had to install a client for remote support. If you didn't install the client, you were very limited in terms of what you could do."
"The business interface is clunky and not well-documented."
"The file transfer functionality crashes sometimes."
"I had an issue recently where my mouse clicks weren’t being registered."
"We occasionally have issues with the graphic software of the interface."
"Improvements are required in the area of scalability since it is an aspect of the tool where there are shortcomings."
"We occasionally have issues with the graphic software of the interface."
"Ease of access is a bit of a challenge."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's affordable for the protection it gives. There are no additional costs."
"The product is relatively pricey, but considering its benefits, I'd say it's fair. The benefits outweigh the expensive licensing fees, especially for large organizations, but medium-sized and smaller businesses may be unable to afford it."
"The tool is cheaper than our company's other MDM tools."
"Its price is in the medium range. It is acceptable because you're paying for the features. I am not aware of any additional costs."
"Intune is cost-effective as it is included in some of the Office 365 packages."
"As a partner, we always look for how we can generate more revenue from a consulting point of view, but I do not see any complaints from the customer side regarding pricing, so they are satisfied with it."
"Licensing depends on how you are providing support to your enterprise, whether it's device-based or user-based."
"Its pricing seems reasonable."
"There is a free and paid version of this solution. I am currently using the free version."
"I used the free version of TeamViewer."
"TeamViewer's price is cheaper than some other similar solutions. We have licenses for our users."
"The cost of the licenses depends on how you buy them. They just had a buy one get one free deal going, and they do that every once in a while. Where you buy one license, and they will give you the second one free, or you can try to get discounts. Most of our licenses that we have we tried to do something like that just to save some money."
"It would be nice if it is cheaper."
"The solution has a pilot feature that is expensive. The overall price of the solution can be cheaper."
"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."
"The price of the license could be less expensive."
"The tool is not cheap."
"I use the tool's free version."
