    Top 5
    A secure remote access and remote control computer software that works well during low bandwidth network connectivity
    Pros and Cons
    • "I like that it helped a lot, even with low bandwidth network connectivity. For example, while I was traveling, sometimes there were requirements for me to join a TeamViewer session and provide technical support. I was able to do that without much of an issue. It is also a secure solution."
    • "In the next release, I would prefer to have a voice integration and collaboration feature to support multiple teams simultaneously."

    What is our primary use case?

    I use TeamViewer for remote access to other systems. If somebody needs help and I don't have direct connectivity to their external systems, they will start a TeamViewer session to allow me to access their system. I provide my technical expertise over those systems by directly accessing them through TeamViewer.

    What is most valuable?

    I like that it helped a lot, even with low bandwidth network connectivity. For example, while I was traveling, sometimes there were requirements for me to join a TeamViewer session and provide technical support. I was able to do that without much of an issue. It is also a secure solution.

    What needs improvement?

    In the next release, I would prefer to have a voice integration and collaboration feature to support multiple teams simultaneously. 

    For how long have I used the solution?

    I have used TeamViewer on and off whenever there is a sudden requirement.

    What do I think about the stability of the solution?

    TeamViewer is a stable solution. 

    How was the initial setup?

    The initial setup is very straightforward. In less than a minute, I'm able to install and connect.

    What about the implementation team?

    I implemented this solution by myself.

    What other advice do I have?

    Clients ask me to connect on TeamViewer, but it's not my preferred tool.

    On a scale from one to ten, I would give TeamViewer an eight.

      What is our primary use case?

      I use TeamViewer to connect to other workstations, Mac, or PC without a VPN connection. You connect to your client or TeamViewer by a give access code, ID, and password. I can connect to clients and resolve problems on their workstations. I can remote connect to a mobile phone or tablet.

      I have been using TeamViewer for a long time.

      What do I think about the stability of the solution?

      How are customer service and support?

      I have never used the support.

      How was the initial setup?

      The initial setup is straightforward. The deployment is very easy because the client software can be installed in half of minute. You download a few megabytes of the software from their site and set up the installation or run without setup and installation.

      What about the implementation team?

      I did the implementation myself.

      What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

      The solution has a pilot feature that is expensive. The overall price of the solution can be cheaper.

      We have licenses for three technicians, and all clients in the company were supported. We have three licenses for the IT technician and we support 100 PCs connection when it's needed.

      What other advice do I have?

      I rate TeamViewer a ten out of ten.
