TeamViewer Reviews

Basically, the solution is being used in order for the IT department to assist me in any problem I have with my computer. It’s for them to have remote access.

It doesn't take any effort for me to fix something that I can’t. I can just call IT and they can just connect and take over the control of my computer and fix it for me, and that’s it.

The implementation process is simple.

It's pretty limited on the options they have. I'm pretty sure they can expand the program a bit and have some more options.

If they, for example, access your computer, I’d like them to be able to diagnose and find any other issues on the computer when they are on there for something else.

The connection and reconnection sometimes lag and can cause problems. They need to look into that. If they can work on the pause button to make it easier to start and stop without lagging, it would be ideal.

I’ve been using the solution for approximately two years.

When we actually pause the connection for a little bit, then we have some problems reconnecting or taking control again. The stability is a bit of an issue.

The scalability has been okay. We haven’t seen any issues there.

We have 200 people using the solution right now.

I’ve never dealt with technical support in the past. I can’t speak to how they would be if someone needs help.

The initial setup is very straightforward. It’s not overly complex or difficult.

The solution may be free to use. However, I’m not 100% sure on this.

I am a customer and end-user.

I’m not 100% sure which version of the solution we’re on.

The solution is mostly on-premises. However, we do use it on the cloud as well.

I’d advise users to go for it and try it out. It saves time for IT, allowing them to remote in from wherever they are. They don’t have to come to you. It makes troubleshooting simple.

I would rate the solution an eight out of ten.

I use TeamViewer for technical support remotely. 

The most valuable features of I use TeamViewer are the ease of access and frequent updates.

In a future release of TeamViewer, they should improve password access. Every time one of my clients access the free version of TeamViewer, the password changes and they cannot update the password. Even if the solution is provided for free, it should allow them to update or set the fixed password because it is very difficult to type the complicated password. 

I have been using TeamViewer for approximately three years.

TeamViewer is highly stable.

I have not contacted the support, I have not had any issue needing the support.

Positive

I use VMware Workspace ONE in parallel with TeamViewer.

The implementation of TeamViewer is simple. In terms of the configuration for the server, the IT team does it. I only need to install the client, which is very simple, but I don't know much about the backend configuration.

Usually out client does the configuration of TeamViewer on the backend.

For 100 TeamViewer users, we would need a team of 10 to manage the maintenance.

After trying free version, you can buy proper license. 

I evaluated VMware Workspace ONE before choosing TeamViewer. However, our company uses both for different purposes. We use VMware Workspace ONE for accessing company assets and we use TeamViewer to support some clients in some projects.

I rate TeamViewer a nine out of ten.

We primarily use the solution for remote access. We have been using TeamViewer for gaining access to the other systems.

TeamViewer can be used for gaining access to another system. By having the remote ID of their system we can completely access their system from TeamViewer. Mostly we have been using it for that purpose only.

It is very easy to check other solutions. 

It's very easy to learn how to use it, including the process and everything about it.

The solution is scalable. 

It's a straightforward setup.

The product can sometimes crash. The stability could be better.

Technical support could be improved.

I've been using the solution for a year or two.

The solution is mostly stable, although it sometimes crashes. 

I'd rate the scalability at a seven out of ten. Sometimes I have faced issues with adapting, to gaining a new acquisition. I haven't been using the latest version, so it might be improved. Also, it is now cloud-based. It may have grown in scalability.

We have 20 to 25 users on the solution. 

We've used technical support once or twice. I have faced issues with the TeamViewer application. I have tried contacting the technical support, however, on the first attempt, I didn't get any response so I had to call and call them again. They said that there have been some errors going on with their server and they were affected at that time. They have increased rates. For most users, it means, hopefully, that they have to get more technical support. Their support team might also be increased.

We have some people who are using AnyDesk. Most of the people in our company are using this. It's likely 100 to 150 people. TeamViewer gave us issues, which is why we switched to AnyDesk.

The product is really straightforward and completely easy to implement.

It took roughly two months to set up and deploy.

We have 14 engineers, however, we only need maybe three for deployment and maintenance. 

We were able to handle the initial setup ourselves. 

I am using the free version only. I've never had to buy their license.

I haven't updated it to the latest version.

Without having tried the latest version, I wouldn't recommend their solution completely. However, it is good. If on the current version it is still good to use, then I would recommend it completely to the others. I'd rate the solution eight out of ten.

We use TeamViewer for remote access and it can be used for meetings.

The solution is a very good tool for monitoring and for remote access. Anyone is able to use it, it is simple to use.

I have been using TeamViewer for approximately three years.

TeamViewer is stable and this is why many people use it.

I have not used technical support.

The initial setup for the personal version is easy. I do not have experience with the enterprise version. It most likely will be very easy too. You only need to set it up on your system and there's no need for integration. However, if you have to implement the enterprise version, I think you would need an integrator to be able to complete it.

We did the implementation ourselves.

There is a free version that has limitations, such as the time of the session with be terminated after a set timeframe. If you buy the license, it's a very good tool for monitoring and for remote access. There are a number of functions you can do with it. When you have virtual teams and they are across remote areas, it provides a means of collaboration. That's why it is very good.

There are many other options available, such as PCAnywhere. Many of the larger and multinational companies deploy these types of solutions.

The price of the license could be less expensive.

We are not using the full version of the solution. Other companies use it for the management of all the application deployments. If my organization gets larger then we hopefully will have the full version. It is a good tool.

I recommend TeamViewer to a lot of people. Sometimes if I have to do a job for someone and it's remote, I ask the customer if they have TeamViewer or PCAnywhere. If they do not have one of them I ask them to download it and they will use the trial version. I then can help them with the problem they are facing. As time goes on, people will start to realize the fact that they need to make it official for them to earn a lot of revenue from it.

I rate TeamViewer a nine out of ten.

I use TeamViewer for remote support, connecting to PCs, and transferring files.

I've been using this solution for about twenty years.

I don't know of any performance problems with TeamViewer - generally, it's a stable product.

It's easy to scale, but the licensing restricts how many people you can add.

The initial setup was easy, taking one minute at most.

I used QuickSupport to install, which made it an easy process.

TeamViewer is expensive, and you get a limited number of connections for your money. We've now switched to AnyDesk, which is free, because the price of TeamViewer was too high.

I would rate this solution as nine out of ten - it would be a ten if it were less expensive.

I mostly use it for remote access to my three computers. I also use it for a pilot when I'm speaking to my inspectors out in the field.

It is a subscription, so we have the latest version.

The pilot feature is what stands out the most. I love the ability to use the pilot feature for remote inspections. The augmented portion of the software comes in handy when I have to assist my inspectors. They use the app in the field, and they show me what they're seeing through their phones.

Its pricing can be improved. It would be nice if it is cheaper.

I can use up to three computers, but sometimes I have four. So, it would be nice to have at least four computers.

There is a limitation on the number of participants you can have in a meeting. That's the only reason I use Zoom in addition to this.

I have been using it for a year. I use it every day.

It is stable.

There is a limit on the number of people who can attend a meeting. Currently, I use Zoom for our pre-construction meetings because I can have up to 25 people. I would like to use TeamViewer, but I can't have everybody participate at the same time. Zoom allows me to have more people.

I used them once when I was trying to get my prescription renewed. Before TeamViewer, they had Blizz. When they phased Blizz out to something else, there was an issue in transferring or going from one subscription to another, but we got through it.

Before TeamViewer, they had Blizz. I was using Blizz.

It was pretty easy.

It would be nice if it is cheaper.

My advice would be to have a deep pocket. Other than that, it is a great product.

I would rate TeamViewer a 10 out of 10.

It allows us to access some of our remote sites, especially if we're having internal issues such as a VPN tunnel dropped from site-to-site. We can still connect to the local machines at the different offices as long as we still have an internet connection, and we can log in and troubleshoot networking issues remotely.

TeamViewer is installed specifically on our desktop machines. We do also use some laptops that are on Windows 10, and there are a couple of Mac OS X machines we've used to remotely connect.

It allows for quick, easy access to our remote sites. It increases our ability to troubleshoot, as needed, at critical times.

In addition, some department managers have people split between sites. For example, part of operations is out here in Olathe, Kansas, and the other part is in Oklahoma. They're able to hold team meetings and present through the TeamViewer meeting sessions. The HR department is also able to hold meetings with the people here and those in other offices.

We've been using the team meetings, the collaboration portion. It's pretty simple to share and presents screens during team meetings.

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. 

As far as the security goes, we've decided that it does set up a pretty good, secure tunnel from point to point.

Overall, it's pretty simple. It does the jobs that we need it to do.

It's not the program itself that's an issue, but there is a need for some better documentation on how to use the web portal Management Console. That seems to be a bit lacking in directions, if you aren't paying attention and you don't know what to do. Better documentation would make it a little bit easier to set things up in different groups and share groups between people.

We've been using it for 14 to 15 months.

It's a very stable program. We haven't noticed any issues with it dropping in and out of service.

It scales. Since we have the corporate license, we're not limited to any number of machines. We install it on all our devices. The scalability is fine.

Between people who have a laptop or a desktop, and some of them have both, about 100 people utilize it. It's the company standard.

I have not used their technical support.

We were only utilizing internal RDP, for the most part. TeamViewer is about five times faster for remote assistance.

The setup is pretty simple. It is a small install-MSI. You can either install it through group policy or push it out through your normal deployment methods onto Windows machines. You set up the services during the deployment for it to connect to the main account, and you can share different computer groups, for the different site locations, from the main account to any of the other admin accounts. You can show who has default access and what groups are already tied into it. It's pretty straightforward.

Our deployment took a couple of hours for 120 machines. We deployed the MSI out through normal deployment processes.

It has been useful and it has increased our productivity by some 400 percent. It's helped us a lot.

We have the corporate license. It's extremely cheap.

For what we utilize it for it's not a super-expensive license. It was about the same or a little bit cheaper than LogMeIn but it's more stable and a better program for what we need in our company.

We looked into VNC and LogMeIn. TeamViewer was a much simpler, easier way to connect up. It's a fast and simple setup and it just works.

The product is simple to set up and install and use.

The most valuable feature of TeamViewer is the ability to remote into another device.

TeamViewer could improve by adding support for other operating systems, such as Linux and CAKE.

I have been using TeamViewer for approximately five years.

TeamViewer is stable.

The scalability of TeamViewer is good.

The initial setup of TeamViewer is straightforward.

We are using the standard free version of TeamViewer.

I rate TeamViewer a ten out of ten.
