Chrome Remote Desktop
Chose Chrome Remote Desktop
I would say it Chrome is good for a person to gain access to their machine. Were as TeamViewer is good for IT team to access a Users machine.
Chose Chrome Remote Desktop
Just like Chrome, which is better because it is a free, world-class product.
Chose Chrome Remote Desktop
Chrome Remote Desktop can measure up to that with better resolution adaptation. Other than that it's a good program
Chose Chrome Remote Desktop
Has better rendering resolution (often smoother) and without having to configure any firewalls or port forwarding, it makes it a much better choice than using RDP. Managed connections all appear in a central location where on RDP you have to make individual shortcuts for each …
Chose Chrome Remote Desktop
Chrome Remote Desktop seems to be a an easy to use and efficient program. Such as Teamviewer, however Teamviewer offers more program features such as able to control a device's function (shutting down, restarting, audio input, cmd etc). With those added program features I …
Chose Chrome Remote Desktop
I loved working with Chrome rather than Teamviewer as It gives me better and more features.
Chose Chrome Remote Desktop
No one can beat Chrome Remote Desktop's price! But that price (free) means something--missing features, limited support. For true business use, access to multiple machines, robust support, etc., I'd go with one of the more expensive options.
Chose Chrome Remote Desktop
We selected Chrome Remote Desktop because it was a free alternative that gives us the functionalities that we need.
Chose Chrome Remote Desktop
It's a free client-less solution that is simple to use. It does require Chrome installed and the agent installed to make it work.
Chose Chrome Remote Desktop
I've used TeamViewer, AnyDesk, Go to My PC, and Microsoft Remote Desktop to access PCs remotely. Chrome Remote Desktop is one of the best remote desktop programs. The other programs are more expensive and provide fewer features than Chrome Remote Desktop. It is much easier …
Chose Chrome Remote Desktop
Chrome Remote Desktop is much more user-friendly that Symantec Endpoint Protection. Support is marginally better with Chrome as well.
Symantec's solution is hard to set up and admin, it also uses a lot of memory that can only be freed with rebooting. The downside to memory usage …
Chose Chrome Remote Desktop
Most of the other software solutions come at a cost for the licensing, and it is usually not cheap, given that you need to have commercial licensing for a business/organization. Also, with the other remote desktop solutions, there is more of a learning curve in order to use, …
Chose Chrome Remote Desktop
TeamViewer is good but it won't let you connect to your devices as seamlessly as Chrome Remote Desktop does. Also, TeamViewer is pricey. Some of our non-technical users faced slight challenges learning on how to operate TeamViewer, which definitely is not the case ever since we …
Chose Chrome Remote Desktop
Less cost than Join.me and seems to more seamless if you subscribe to G Suite services.
Chose Chrome Remote Desktop
Still up in the air about which solution is best. We're actually leaning towards Windows RDP via Citrix session right now. It is secure, fast, and easy.
Chose Chrome Remote Desktop
Teamviewer is much easier for less tech-savvy users to set up, and you can walk them through it over the phone if necessary ("Just google 'TeamViewer' and click 'Download'". However, TeamViewer wants to update VERY regularly and sometimes doesn't connect reliably. We've never …
Chose Chrome Remote Desktop
Bomgar is probably one of the best support/Unattended remote access solutions out there. Logmein is a close second. However, the cost of both these solutions can be daunting. However, a third option, Jump Desktop, is slick since it uses a propriety 'fluid' streaming protocol …
Chose Chrome Remote Desktop
Chrome Remote Desktop compliments the Google for Work Admin suites perfectly, you can deploy this application to all your devices via policy from google, it's easy to use from the operators point of view and allows for a quick seamless connection to your device, the cost is …
Chose Chrome Remote Desktop
I've used RealVNC but it takes much longer to set up RealVNC in the past. More firewall setup. Not as secure in my opinion.
Chose Chrome Remote Desktop
Hands down Chrome Remote Desktop is the best option available if you find yourself mobile and without access to a laptop/PC. In some cases, I would say that this application outperforms the native Windows Remote Desktop application. However, there are some features missing, …
TeamViewer
Chose TeamViewer
TeamViewer does as much, if not more, for client connectivity. Both allow copious notes for each support connection. Client-based MDM would be a valuable addition for our specific needs.
Chose TeamViewer
TeamViewer offers more advanced features than AnyDesk e.g. TeamViewer Dex which automatically tracks user's system performance and provides proactive issue resolution. This feature helps to fix common IT issues automatically and reduces manual intervention.
Chose TeamViewer
I have used Anydesk for little over an year and currently using TeamViewer. AnyDesk is a very light software which doesn't require heavy RAM to run also its very stable than TeamViewer most importantly its cheaper than TeamViewer.

But TeamViewer stands out in terms of loaded …
Chose TeamViewer
Although it is the most expensive on the market, it has many built-in features and, above all, resilience and security. It is much more practical to work with when there is a need to provide constant support to many users.On the downside, I see that it is very dependent on a …
Chose TeamViewer
1. AnyDesk stops working in between. And not many users use AnyDesk. It has a complex permission section where users are not able to give remote permissions easily, which consumes time. 2. Zoom Meetings is slow in remote access response and it's time bounded when it comes to a …
Chose TeamViewer
TeamViewer is a go-to product for almost all newbies and smaller organizations, allowing multiple simultaneous connections and the ability to transfer files, letting you serve multiple clients at once.
Chose TeamViewer
Apple Remote Desktop requires a VPN connection to the LAN to be useful, but it is still necessary to use it when TeamViewer will not connect. Datto RMM seems very solid, and I like it, though I only have access to it from our MPS. It can often connect when the TV cannot. …
Chose TeamViewer
TeamViewer is easier to use, has a better UI that I can control more easily than others, is faster, and I think it uses less bandwidth than others. Also, 5 stars for me, it has a better chat display that can be shown or hidden according to our needs during the remote session. …
Chose TeamViewer
Saw several other users comment and praise TeamViewer, saw they had a "free" option, downloaded it, and started using it; it fits our needs well.
Chose TeamViewer
Compared to the RMM features of NinjaOne, Datto RMM, and N-Able, TeamViewer's RMM toolkit is thinner and less automated. The TeamViewer RMM features are not as robust as those of dedicated RMM platforms, like the ones I mentioned above. This is an important point to keep in …
Chose TeamViewer
MS Teams is good, but not on all our devices. We also experience more latency issues with MS Teams. TeamViewer has a small footprint on the devices and just seems to work.
Chose TeamViewer
For mobile, TeamViewer was much better, especially since some of them don't support mobile devices at all. Performance seems to be generally better than AnyDesk and on par with ScreenConnect in both performance and the feature set. One system not in the list above is RustDesk. …
Chose TeamViewer
We choose TeamViewer over AnyDesk due to its advanced and more secured features. It also offered us better pricing on corporate licensing.
Chose TeamViewer
TeamViewer is superior with remote assistance when our user is at statile site where there is no VPN tunnel implemented. All we have to do instead is just send users an email with the invitation for remote access, and we can assist those who have trouble. Highly recommended …
Chose TeamViewer
TeamViewer has a stronger more stable connection for accessing other devices such as mobile devices.

I tried adding mobile devices into teams meetings using my teams account, however the presentation has not always been the best.
Chose TeamViewer
TeamViewer is a little more robust than many of the other options that we have compared it to. The patching and package deployment option alone sets it apart. The ability to conduct file transfers from machine to machine also gives it an edge where other options have come up …
Chose TeamViewer
Pricing wise, the TeamViewer license is a lot more costly, but makes up for it in feature-richness and reliability. Pulseway has the benefit of having the possibility to keep an eye the IT infrastructure so you can catch things before they go wrong but our main focus was a …
Chose TeamViewer
Anydesk is a great tool but TeamViewer is already established at our organization and switch would require software re-installation for each managed computer.
Chose TeamViewer
Found TeamViewer expensive compared to other services, but it does work efficiently. LogMeIn has become incredibly expensive, hence moving away from them. Splashtop is more cost-effective but perhaps not quite so reliable.
Chose TeamViewer
End-to-end and transport encryption, Multi-factor authentication, Secure transfer of patches, logs, configuration files, and backups during support sessions or deployments.
Chose TeamViewer
TeamViewer's cost is much lower than that of other solutions, and its security is far superior to RemotePC's. TeamViewer is also a request-based remote session manager, unlike other software that allows indefinite connection time. TeamViewer's free version makes it even better …

Chrome Remote Desktop is great for accessing machines remotely which cannot be accessed via Microsoft's Remote Desktop. It's especially nice for accessing machines of varying operating systems from a machine of a single operating system. For example, if I'm on my Windows laptop, I can always use Microsoft Remote Desktop to connect to local machines (or machines via a VPN), but I can't do the same with Macs. I can do both from Chrome Remote Desktop though, and this program is very lightweight, which is nice.

Helpful for organized IT teams supporting multiple manufacturing warehouse zones. Useful for training, auditing, and meeting ISO/quality or compliance documentation requirements. False positives can lock users out unexpectedly, particularly common when supporting remote home users. Session connections can be interrupted, which is painful when configuring warehouse automation systems and printers that require a restart.

Cons
No answers on this topic
  • More fluid video rendering. Does a good job, but could use a more consistent framerate at times.
  • A way to easier switch between multiple monitors.
  • Adding an ability to zoom for multi-monitor display. Sometimes on a single screen it can get difficult to read if trying to view them all.

  • Now, it doesn’t work in fast network environments: sometimes, data is delayed during transfer.
  • There are a small number of ways that a user is allowed to change the interface on the device.
  • Some minor increases in difficulty with advanced functions of the application.

A very easy lightweight tool that is completely scalable and deployed via google admin platform. The tool is free to use and works extremely well with the chrome devices we currently have deployed. Any organization using chrome or google suites should look into this tool as it's much easier to use then other remote software in the market

As long as I continue to provide remote support for my clients, it's a no brainier. For what I pay out, I probably make it back tenfold in the ability to provide remote support from wherever and whenever. Not to mention the saved gas money for a fix that only takes 5 minutes but it takes you 20 minutes to get there. As my business continues to grow, and I support more and more clients, my need for TeamViewer will only grow.

Just a great product that has saved countless hours of commute to work and given the flexibility to be able to work from anywhere, whether at home or when away on holiday overseas. I love that it is a free product and is just as great as its competitors' products. It has also allowed me to prepare for work for the following day.

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.

The only support I ever accessed were help files and web tutorials. I never tried to access personal support, mostly because I don't believe much of it is available. As a free service, my expectations for support are pretty low; that said, Chrome Remote Desktop is easy enough to configure and troubleshoot even with limited technical knowledge.

The support from the Teamviewer team has always been top notch. Any support ticket that we have submitted has been handled very quickly and with the best possible resolution. We find in most cases, contacting for a support ticket is not even necessary, as the knowledge base is more than adequate.

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.

Again, 5 if for neutral.

TeamViewer installation and deployment to other devices is pretty straightforward and does not require much technical know-how. This makes ease of use attractive when supporting both new and existing clients with limited technical knowledge. I think ease of use is a huge factor in getting new clients. TeamViewer handles that extremely well.

Most of the other software solutions come at a cost for the licensing, and it is usually not cheap, given that you need to have commercial licensing for a business/organization. Also, with the other remote desktop solutions, there is more of a learning curve in order to use, them. With Chrome Remote Desktop that is not the case. Lastly, some of the problems that were seen in some of the paid commercial solutions, have not been seen with Chrome Remote Desktop.
