Enables management of multiple operating systems with a single license
The best feature is that it's a Microsoft product, so if anything goes wrong, we get quick support for anything required. Remote system functionality allows us to sit anywhere and take control of any device via remote management. We can enhance security for clients' laptops with built-in Microsoft Defender, which is available with the Microsoft Intune license. We use it for reporting purposes through endpoint analytics. When pushing scripting, there are two types available: remediation script and reservation script. Through endpoint analytics, you can push defender policies to clients. It helps with reporting, inventory updates, and monitoring tenant status health.

Reliable remote access has improved secure collaboration and streamlined daily approvals
The best features TeamViewer Business offers in my opinion are collaboration, templates, a high level of security, and session recording. Collaboration allows me to collaborate remotely with my team members. Besides reconnecting automatically, it provides a high level of security, protecting from cyber attacks and aids in providing assurance in regulated environments through two-factor authentication and end-to-end encryption features. It also allows recording live sessions, which can be replayed as needed for future reference. TeamViewer Business has positively impacted my organization as collaboration has enhanced, especially remote collaboration by 60 to 70 percent. I have been able to collaborate with clients and other team members seamlessly. Enhanced workflow efficiency includes faster approvals and a lowered risk of data loss, misuse, and leak through robust features like two-factor authentication and end-to-end encryption. It also facilitates compliance using documentation and auditing through recordings and logs.

Inexpensive with useful screen monitoring and screen sharing capabilities
I'm using the latest version of the solution. I'd recommend others switch over to Zoho. It's flexible and highly efficient while being very user-friendly. If users have remote sessions, it's quite useful; however, if there are no remote sessions needed, the solution itself isn't very useful. I'd rate the product nine out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It is quite policy-enabled, so you can build pretty much any policy to manage remote endpoints."
"The solution’s most valuable feature is its ease of use."
"The security compliance capabilities make it widely adopted across organizations."
"Its most valuable aspect is it is very connected with the Microsoft ecosystem."
"Autopilot is the most valuable feature of Microsoft Intune."
"We already use a lot of Microsoft products in our company, and therefore, it made sense to also use this product."
"What I like the most about Microsoft Intune is its ability to manage mobile devices. Through integration with System Center, it can also manage desktops and laptops."
"Microsoft Endpoint Manager is not expensive overall, especially for small environments."
"TeamViewer is a scalable solution."
"The most valuable feature of TeamViewer is the ability to remote control a computer system. Overall it is a complete solution."
"The most valuable feature is you do not need to know the Windows username and password to connect and see the staff screen."
"TeamViewer allows us to do multiple controllers on a Host, which is great. We have a lot of Macs in our organization, and TeamViewer being cross-platform is a good thing."
"The most valuable feature of TeamViewer is the ability to remote into another device."
"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."
"I recommend it as a solution for remote disk users."
"The most valuable feature of TeamViewer Tensor is the remote access."
"Technical support is easy to reach."
"It is a scalable solution. "
"Screen monitoring and screen sharing, as well as screen remote control, are all very useful features."
"For five years of using the product, there are no issues; there are no bugs or glitches, and it doesn't crash or freeze."
 

Cons

"One area for improvement is app deployment. Another is the Windows update rollout. If you're rolling out an object to a device that's offline, Intune stops trying to reach this device after it sits idle for a bit. We are forced to find a workaround that could help manage that."
"One big problem with Microsoft is that they're changing the names of the products quite often, or they're quite consistently doing so. Intune is now Endpoint administration. Constantly switching the user interface or the administrative interface makes it quite hard to keep pace. If you are on a two-week holiday and you come back and look at the same screen you have looked at for the last couple of months, it looks different, which is annoying. Changing things around all the time doesn't make it easy."
"The reporting is subpar. That's the only issue we have with Intune. We use another solution for that purpose."
"Intune does not provide real-time visibility."
"Lacks the ability to deploy more ways of management, managing devices and processing the policies."
"A new Intune feature allows application packaging, but it incurs additional licensing costs for a significant number of applications."
"The reporting could be improved, as it's pretty poor compared to other products of this type."
"It just doesn't handle software updates well at all by itself. You need to be a scripting wizard to make those happen properly, or you use third-party tools."
"Quick User Switching has a very nasty tendency to render the screen output unstable."
"The installation and the update agent could improve."
"The support could improve their speed."
"It would be very helpful if they could provide a manual for the installation process and describe more of their features."
"This solution could be improved by offering more flexibility in terms of usage."
"TeamViewer has a legacy and may not be using the latest UI trends."
"Sometimes it lags. They need to optimize it a bit."
"On occasion, when remote connection process can't connect to a machine, the error messages aren't always helpful to tell you why you can't connect, as the message doesn't help troubleshoot whether it is too slow, too much interference, etc."
"Support could be more knowledgeable."
"Support could be more knowledgeable."
"They do have some glitches in the microphone and speaker, especially during remote access."
"It could be integrated with IT management tools."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's affordable. It's cheaper if you have an Office 365, E5, or E3 subscription because everything is there."
"There is a license needed to use the solution and we are on an annual license."
"Microsoft Intune is not cost-effective as a standalone product."
"The price is very reasonable."
"Microsoft Intune is pretty reasonable. We have difficulty with Azure, which is probably why we have not put many assets in Azure. Everything we put there is very expensive."
"For Microsoft 365 E5 clients, cost is not an issue as this product is one of the benefits."
"The pricing is inherently reasonable, as Microsoft leverages market insights to maintain the total cost of ownership at around ninety to ninety-five percent of what would be incurred in an on-premise scenario."
"Its pricing seems reasonable."
"The pricing is a little bit on the higher side."
"We have an annual subscription that is just under $1,900 with no additional costs. We get these promotions about upgrades and stuff like that, but we haven't had a need to add more seats. Users can also use TeamViewer for home use with a non-commercial free license."
"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."
"There is a free and paid version of this solution. I am currently using the free version."
"We are using the standard free version of TeamViewer."
"TeamViewer's price is cheaper than some other similar solutions. We have licenses for our users."
"TeamViewer is $600 or $700 per port per year..."
"...it will cost you $1,500 to $1,600 a year, but when I think of how much work I do through TeamViewer..."
"Its scalability depends on the business model we purchase."
