Has good stability and an easy initial setup process
We use the solution for remote access control and endpoint protection features The solution has the best remote access control and protection features. They should provide intermediate device limit options. It would be helpful for users who require more remote control capabilities than the lower…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"No issues with stability. It has worked on every platform I’ve tried it on, and not interfered with anything."
"Unattended Access, allows me to do support on machines that people are having trouble with, during non-working hours."
"LogMeIn Central allows numerous active clients, say... 50, to use licenses for remotely accessing a computer from home, taking advantage of all the solution's built-in security features."
"I like the options for multiple displays. The unattended access is very useful, but it can also be misused. So, it is something you have to be careful with."
"It saves us drive time, we don't have to go to clients. We can just use remote access."
"It is convenient for my workers to be at home. Therefore, it is easier for them as their second job to do the work. That is a plus, and I improve productivity."
"I like the security aspect, that I can glance down and see quickly who's up to date on patches, and who has virus concerns."
"Provides remote access, allows me to get inside our network to be able to fix problems."
"The most valuable feature of TeamViewer is the ability to remote control a computer system. Overall it is a complete solution."
"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."
"The most valuable feature of TeamViewer is its ease of use."
"The most valuable feature is you do not need to know the Windows username and password to connect and see the staff screen."
"There have been a couple of times with the handy remote access feature, where I have been asked for something at eight o'clock on a Thursday evening and it is on my desk machine, but I am driving back to my office. With TeamViewer, I can just stay at my home machine, connect to my work machine, and get the data needed without having to drive back across town."
"It is a scalable product."
"The most valuable features of TeamViewer are the ability for administrators to lock the remote systems, simple connections, and easy login access."
"The most important feature of TeamViewer is its ease of use."
 

Cons

"Compared to other products, I feel that their biggest weakness has been customer service. They are very nice, but things take forever to resolve. It has been a major issue there. Otherwise, we're happy. We haven't moved away from them because we haven't found anybody with comparable pricing for our business model."
"Our clients are having issues with printing."
"It needs backwards compatibility for non-Microsoft-supported operating systems, for example, XP and 2003. In situations where I have no options but to run older operating systems, I would like for it to be backwards compatible."
"They should provide intermediate device limit options for the users."
"The file transfer could be better. They could make it a lot easier to deal with. LogMeIn Central is not that intuitive. It's a lot harder to figure out."
"It is easy to get locked out, which is something that needs to be improved."
"The initial load is terribly slow and often has delays with the login page loading."
"It's not really a true RMM product but more of just a remote access."
"We access the solution through a VPN, which improves our security. However, earlier this year, around the beginning of March, a CVE in the TeamViewer client allowed remote connections to other network systems, which was concerning. You could have unintentionally gained admin rights if you didn't update TeamViewer promptly. It's crucial to always keep it updated to prevent such issues. The tool should consider implementing two-factor authentication to improve such security holes. It should also integrate good security updates, which should be implemented automatically."
"Considering the earlier versions of the product, I think TeamViewer used to slow down the systems."
"I can use up to three computers, but sometimes I have four. So, it would be nice to have at least four computers."
"I'm not sure if they provide good quality audio alongside screensharing."
"TeamViewer can improve by making the interface more user-friendly. It looks very basic, they can make it more modern and easy to use."
"The installation and the update agent could improve."
"TeamViewer can improve connectivity. I had some problems connecting to my clients and now I use AnyDesk."
"A feature that they could add is chat with sound to talk."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We are an educational institution, so anything to make it cheaper would be better because we don’t grow money on trees."
"The only thing I found is that they've gotten very, very expensive over the years. I started out with about about 100 users on it. Two years ago it was about $600 for 100 users. Now, it's that price for 25 users."
"We went with it for pricing reasons, that it was the biggest bang for our buck, by combining the ability to have a central security console, as well as a central point for user administration."
"It used to be a lot cheaper but then the price shot up (doubled over the span of two years), but it's hard to switch, and most competing products are similarly priced anyway."
"The solution's price is reasonable."
"Pricing is a little on the expensive side, compared to what TeamViewer has offered."
"It is a little pricey. I have more than five seats, so I pay a $1000/year."
"Having to spend so much money on remote access is what I feel to be a necessary evil."
"I used the free version of TeamViewer."
"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."
"We're using the free version. We do not pay any licensing fees."
"We are using the standard free version of TeamViewer."
"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."
"We use the free version of TeamViewer."
"I used 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."

What do you like most about TeamViewer?
It is easy to use and has a pretty good UI.
What is your experience regarding pricing and costs for TeamViewer?
The tool's price is a problem because TeamViewer wants users to sign up, and I feel most of the products want their users to do the same. TeamViewer is very pricey. You have to sign up for a yearly...
