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

Pros

"What I like most about Cisco Meeting Server is its quick management. The solution also has a straightforward configuration."
"You can use the Cisco Meeting Server to set up conference calls and virtual meetings. Those are the two primary functions of Meeting Server. Most people in the company are using Microsoft Teams, so we only use Meeting Server when we have an internal meeting for all staff."
"The share screen option available during conferences is one of the best features of Cisco Meeting Server."
"Cisco Meeting Server is an easy and less complex solution."
"The UI is user-friendly and very good overall."
"The most valuable features of TeamViewer are the high performance and it is not complicated to use, neither for me nor for the one I'm helping."
"It's a user-friendly product."
"The solution is very stable. We've never had a problem with it."
"The most valuable feature of TeamViewer is its ease of use and beneficial remote access."
"The product is quite stable. The performance is good."
"The most valuable feature of TeamViewer is its ease of use."
"It was worth the investment. You can do file transfers and video calls with it. You can do a lot of copy paste stuff. E.g., if I have a file and want to place it on somebody's machine, I can just copy it off of mine and paste it right on their machine. I don't have to put it in a Dropbox account and have them log into it to pull it off. I can do all that right through TeamViewer. When you're looking at the TeamViewer screen, you think you are working on your own machine."
"It's very easy to set up."
 

Cons

"What would make Cisco Meeting Server better is integrating it with Zoom and Teams so that you can connect or make a call through any of the two third-party solutions."
"A few features are missing on the Meetings app, like a recording function. My understanding is that you need to buy a separate recording solution. It's modular, so you have to enable some functions if you want to use them. For example, we had to enable the Mood function. Recording is the primary feature we'd like to see in the app."
"Cisco Meeting Server should include a feature to control another user's screen during a remote session."
"This is a difficult solution to install and it should be made easier."
"In Cisco Meeting Server, GUI is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"A feature that they could add is chat with sound to talk."
"The stability of TeamViewer is good, but it could be better."
"There is a paid version of this solution with more features available. However, they should provide more free features to the user, such as factor authentication."
"It becomes complicated to switch from one monitor to another for different windows."
"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."
"The product can sometimes crash."
"TeamViewer could improve by having a cloud version. Having the solution on the system could cause some cyber security concerns with data."
"The installation and the update agent could improve."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Cisco Meeting Server has reasonable licensing costs."
"Licensing fees are billed yearly."
"Price-wise, Cisco Meeting Server is a product that falls in a mid-range category."
"We have a permanent license and the price is reasonable."
"The price was cheaper than what we were previously paying. At the time that we went with TeamViewer, we were using ShareConnect. The TeamViewer package was about half the cost and able to have a bigger number of users."
"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 not using the solution for commercial use therefore it is free to use."
"We are using the standard free version of TeamViewer."
"There is a free and paid version of this solution. I am currently using the free version."
"We use the free version of TeamViewer."
"We are using the free version of TeamViewer."
