Easy to use for our clients and was easy to roll out
I would rate it a nine out of ten. It was really easy to roll it out to our users to implement it to an API. It was very seamless. I don't see any lack of features we need. For the purpose of connecting the client and agent, it works very well. I would like the ability to download or retrieve the call history through APIs. There is no way to download the recordings from the meetings because you can record the meeting. The only way to get the recording from the platform is to log in to my strategic portal and download it manually. There is no way to retrieve the link for downloading the recording through API. I would like to see that in the next release.

Remote access has cut critical issue resolution time and supports faster production troubleshooting
Perhaps on the UI side of TeamViewer because we are connecting to different remote desktop connections or remote server connections. Whenever we are working on one of the production issues and we open multiple connections, it is very hectic or confusing to jump from one server to another server. Perhaps on the UI side, if they can improve something related to the view sessions or which session is connected to which remote server, that would be helpful. Perhaps something related to the authentication because it should have a proper authentication mechanism. Every developer should not access TeamViewer or the remote desktop by using TeamViewer. We always have a proper authentication or multifactor authentication mechanism in place, so only those on on-call support or P1 support at that time can access the remote server, but not anyone else. I chose nine out of 10 because sometimes we face the session timeout issue. Suppose during the production support, we connect to one of the remote servers, and if it is idle for approximately 10 or 15 minutes, the session timeout happens. We have to follow the same authentication mechanism to connect to the remote server again. During the session timeout, it delays our process or the troubleshooting steps, which is the reason I have given nine out of 10 instead of 10.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The pros are that it's like a global leader. It has a translation project, which is very interesting and important for our users because the minority of them are not able to read and speak in English."
"It was really easy to roll it out to our users to implement it to an API."
"I would happily recommend this product for both personal and commercial reasons because of its price and also because of its ease of use."
"I would advise others this is the best solution for administrators or IT personnel."
"I have been satisfied with TeamViewer overall."
"There are only two of us in the core of the company and we manage about 500 machines based in the UK, mainland Europe, US, Hong Kong, China and South Africa."
"The performance and stability are good, there are no bugs or glitches, and it doesn't crash or freeze."
"TeamViewer is very easy to set up, use, and instruct others to get running, which is great for support."
"I don't know of any performance problems with TeamViewer - generally, it's a stable product."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is that it is very fast. The file transfer from remote machines to my machine or from my machine to the remote machine works well."
 

Cons

"We have had some problems with stability. A week ago, we had outaging but it has stablized."
"A feature that they could add is chat with sound to talk."
"They should release features such as Augmented Reality into both plain and standard versions of TeamViewer."
"Full integration of computer's user account system. Be able to login using the local computer's credentials rather than setting up a unique Teamviewer account/password."
"The security could improve in TeamViewer."
"TeamViewer can improve connectivity. I had some problems connecting to my clients and now I use AnyDesk."
"The product could be less expensive."
"Having the ability to create subgroups and delegate permissions to the group members would be a helpful addition."
"It does what I need it to do but I think it's expensive."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The cost is in the thousands of dollars per year."
"We are not using the solution for commercial use therefore it is free to use."
"I used the free version of TeamViewer."
"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."
"The solution's pricing is reasonable."
"TeamViewer is $600 or $700 per port per year..."
"We're using the free version. We do not pay any licensing fees."
"There is no license needed to use TeamViewer."
