TeamViewer provides software for both remote management and online collaborations. With TeamViewer, users have access to fully integrated online conference solutions for audio and video communication, including interactive screen sharing and remote access features.
I have used LogMeIn and TeamViewer, but GoToMyPc is easier to use, for me as the support person and for the end users on the remote computers. For remote tech support and for training sessions on software applications I would say it has all the functionality and performance …
The other products are, at times, clunky and slow the performance down of the end user's computer. TeamViewer is constantly asking to update to the newer version, which seems to be every other week. If the end user clicks to update the product, then you too have to update in …
GoToMyPC scales well for us and new licenses can easily be added. A product like TeamViewer is great for remote support, but not 8 hour classes. We selected GoToMyPC because of cost and features.
1) Though feature wise PCAnyhere has no comparison but some of its features are not required or not used frequently, hence user is paying for most of things it don't require but GoToMyPC has only the relevant features which is available at less cost obviously.
2) Unlike pcAnyhere…

Chose GoToMyPC
I feel like TeamViewer is a little more professional and bullet proof. However, the price is much higher than GTMPC. And of course, VNC as a free-option is always attractive.
TeamViewer accuses me of using the product commercially, and will not let me access my desktop - so it is 100% useless to me. Before this started happening, I could access but only sporadically and sometimes it would just close me out without warning when I was in the middle …
The other products aren't as easy to use and intuitive. They're more geared towards a technical background which our employees didn't have. The features GoToMyPC has and the ability to execute them well are really the main reason why it excels as our top choice for a …
We use GoToMyPC for some of our classes, and it serves the purpose for training students. It, however, is too complicated to set up for daily employee use.
The commercial price is expensive for TeamViewer than GoToMyPC & VNC. Also, Teamviewer updates are very constant, sometimes up to twice or thrice a year, which makes it expensive because it forces you to buy a license.
If we ignore the cost part, Overall TeamViewer is really the …
LogMeIn Central remains the go-to product for remote desktop. Splashtop is on the same level as TeamViewer. GoToMyPC is more of a temporary, attended remote support application. VNC Connect is very basic, but also stable and feature-rich.
TeamViewer was recommended by our IT techs. The time it takes to log into GoToMyPC and gain access to a computer is much longer than TeamViewer. TeamViewer has a better dashboard and ease of use than GoToMyPC. I found it much easier to move between remote computer operation …
TeamViewer stands out as the Free and best solution for remote accessing devices across operating systems. TeamViewer offers several remote access features that fit the unique needs for all kinds of users. Teamviewer also allows users to record their remote access sessions inc …
For us we picked TeamViewer because we all have used it in the past. We knew the product was good. We all liked it. It was a product we all trusted. Past experience tends to speak well when it comes to different hardware and software. It is a program that was easy for us to …
TeamViewer is easier to use and has a cleaner, more efficient support portal for tech teams. The custom install package allows for silent installs with the setup configuration we need.
Well, those these other programs are useful in their own ways, TeamViewer is the most well known and not for no reason. TeamViewer provides the ability to have the unattended access, the chat support, the mobile usage if necessary, and the speed at which you can connect to …
fairly easy installation in any environment picked Teamviewer because we heard good reports

Chose TeamViewer
The all-in-one aspect seemed great at first and looked like it could justify its price tag. The product's easy setup and great performance were definitely there, and our teams got up to speed really quickly. Unfortunately, after a year or so, we migrated to ConnectWise because …
TeamViewer was the best option for remote control and with the ability for participants to point on the screen during presentations. It was the fastest/smoothest experience for remote control, and allowed logging into the computer before logging in after a reboot. It was also …

Chose TeamViewer
I have used numerous remote PC software solutions and TeamViewer is clearly the best that I have used. It is simple, secure and easy for end users to handle. It works well over the internet without a VPN, unlike SMS. It also works well with all monitor sizes and dual monitors. …
1) Ease of use 2) Intuitive design which has an elegance of its own 3) TeamViewer's ability to work across platforms is a huge positive - PC to PC, mobile to PC, PC to mobile, or mobile to mobile
I selected TeamViewer over another provider because the cost is still less than most, and it's well known to my clients. It's not as cheap as ConnectWise ScreenConnect, but it's still very good and works well as my back-up remote client for my clients when recovery needs to be …
TeamViewer is more popular with our staff and clients. Whenever we want to connect using a different solution, we keep going back to TeamViewer because it’s what they are used to. TeamViewer also has more advanced features, which are specific to everything we would like to …
Frankly, TeamViewer does not stack up against these other options, it competes with them to some degree but is, in my opinion, the least of the four. Where it does excel is in its advanced feature set - in that it has many features available - even though those features are …
TeamViewer's mobile app is powerful and consistently makes the connection to my remote desktop. In the past I found other solutions to be inconsistent in availability leaving me with an unexpected "surprise" when I was unable to connect. I find TeamViewer is able to provide …
We've used a lot of solutions -- mostly the free basic versions of the following: ZoomRoom, Join.Me, GoToMeeting, GoToMyPC, LogMeIn, GoogleHangouts (screenshare), and Skype.
I think GoToMyPC is well-suited for any scenario I have encountered, although I only have experience using it in a small firm setting. Otherwise, for working from home and traveling or file retrieval, it has proved more than adequate. I have not encountered a scenario that I thought was less than appropriate.
It is well suited if the team members work remotely and need constant collaboration and communication throughout the development cycle. It is so helpful for Systems Engineers in the Software industry to resolve laptop and computer issues. It is also helpful for troubleshooting hardware issues like printers, scanners, server racks, and more. It is less suited if the teams are small and no remote access or group calls are needed, they could very well use telephones and mobile phones.
I have been using GotomyPC for 20 years and it's gotten better with time. It's the best remote app that I've tried. The others were harder to use and not as functional. It allows us to work from anywhere just as if we were in the office. Even being able to print to my remote location is a wonderful way of doing work. I don't have to drag it to my remote device, It will just print without any hassle
We will definitely renew our TeamViewer software license when the time comes. This service works and does not matter on what device you are trying to control (it depends on the license), and it is very responsive and does not seem to use up a lot of data.
Really easy to use-even if you forget your password frequently like me. The reset password feature is not cumbersome and does not require phoning Customer Service. Just a few clicks and a bit of creativity to come up with a new password. I like this "easy button" approach. Definitely recommend.
Compared to other products I've used (ConnectWise Control), TeamViewer is harder to set up and get connected. It is especially difficult to set up "permanent" unattended remote access, where you want to be able to connect to and control a remote computer without having to exchange codes and passwords every time you connect.
I have never had to contact support. The product is so easy to use I have not needed help (yet). But if I had to contact them, I am sure they would be just as great to work with as the product itself is.
the few times i have had to contact teamviewer support, they were very responsive and give me quick answers and seemed to understand my problems quickly and easily. I did not have to sit on the phone for hours on hold or get passed around to multiple phone support techs before finding a solution to my issues, so i would rate their support very highly.
As expected without any problem! Alternate in-person training is another efficient way to learn how a product works. There are many third party supporters for TeamViewer courses available that can give additional ideas how to use TeamViewer for specific functions and features as we did require in respect of our usage.
I have never used the online training either. I have watched a few informational videos that were helpful when learning how to do a specific procedure within TeamViewer and get the most out of the software by utilizing one of the many features that are available with the software. Again, 5 if for neutral.
It set up quickly and assigning log ins to various computers was simple. I don't think you need many insights into the product. It's easy to implement and easy to use. Since it's a work tool, it needs be that way. I wouldn't want the tool to have any learning curve when some of the people using it are not tech savvy. They are accessing their work computers for files or to work on apps that their remote devices might not have loaded.
No nothing that really sticks out. For the most part I have only had to uninstall and reinstall application a couple of times when I hit a glitch. I will say that on a MAC it is a little harder to implement due to Apple's Permissions that need to be set. Sometimes it needs the client to intervene to get those permissions set.
I recently started having problems with Splashtop - slow response/freezes/drops, and after troubleshooting everything internet and hardware related, decided to check out GoToMyPC as one step in troubleshooting. GoToMyPC has better response time and has been more reliable. So far I am pleased with the switch with just a couple of minor matters mentioned earlier in review.
Horses for courses they say but all around, TeamViewer is the best software for remote management, period. Pulseway's remote desktop can work well on the phone app but on a desktop, it is often unreliable and drops connections. AnyDesk is not appropriate for our business and is only good on a case-by-case basis.
I can use it on all of my devices - even my Galaxy phone. Once you log into your device, you work on it as if you were physically in front of it. Not much complexity in that. If you can work on your own device, you can work on it through another device - even a phone.
Average Effective/workable time of a team member has increased because the team member does not to wait for the IT team do the installment of any software and hand the laptop over again.
Cost for the alternate laptops have been reduced, since there is less requirement now to handover a backup PC for the employees until the current PC's issue is resolved, if it's software issue.
Cost of the transport, electricity and building maintenance, has reduced, since the remote working option for the employees is available with the TeamViewer.
