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.
GoGuardian Teacher is great for a teacher who needs a way to monitor student activities and work time on a laptop. It is easy to set up, simple to use and helps to keep students accountable when online in class. It integrates with Google Classroom which is a big help. It is more powerful for teachers experienced in using tech in the classroom. The archiving ability is great but the UX needs to improve.
On the road when client has issue. I can remote into the computer and show them what to do or do it myself. Also, I can get onto multiple computers at the same time which is great. I can give access to a colleague to help me out. I can use TeamViewer when on the road and a client has an emergency, I can log on from my mobile app. I find this to be very helpful.
Give us internationally active remote access to DIAMES servers at customer side for support issues.
Give us the opportunity to present our DIAMES solution live to potential new customers without physical visits.
Enable us with three business locations on three continents sharing a common IT environment without physical visiting another of our business location.
Gives us the opportunity sharing a life problem in our DIAMES application with software tool providers when we recognize a problem for which we need support.
We are dealing with DIAMES customers in China, Europe and USA.
DIAMES is a Windows server based environment. With TeamViewer we can create a remote access to a life system environment.
With a strong and fast internet access TeamViewer enables us response time to actions like we would be on site.
TeamViewer is for us more reliable and more secure than a Anydesk access.
Our customer have been very happy about our support when Corona did not allow us any on site visit too.
The ability to send command line requests and troubleshooting without fully logging in when a connection is spotty or drops unexpectedly.
As mentioned above, with spotty connections, it would be nice if, while performing a file transfer and the connection fails, Teamviewer would automatically attempt to reconnect and resume the transfer if it had not been completed.
permission inheritance, I was made a company admin, and for a number of devices, I only have easy access. increasing my permissions has had to be done manually for each device in the group.
For a technology-heavy school, it is a necessary and good tool for managing classroom use of laptops. It is easy to set up and use. Helps track time on task and internet usage. Another source of data when speaking to parents about student work and activity. Can help plan and manage work time when you have limited devices.
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.
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 support is great. On the rare occasion that I've had to reach out to support they have been very quick to respond and extremely helpful. I've also had teachers reach out directly to support themselves. Most of the time I don't even know that a teacher has reached out to support until after the fact. They always seem satisfied.
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.
Setting up new machines for our clients and organisation is straight forward and easy, even for someone with little experience in the area. The process remains the same regardless of what device or version we install it on and the TeamViewer ID also remains the same (based on hardware) regardless of how many times it is updated or removed and re-installed.
I have used Hapara in a previous school district. GoGuardian is more user-friendly and easier to setup. I do think GoGuardian has some room on improving the ease of finding some areas of the program, but once you know the path to get there it is quick.
I prefer to choose TeamViewer as it gives excellent options for managing the remote devices with an intuitive user interface, multiple remote login sessions support and remote login recording feature enablement over AnyDesk and Zoom for remote support capabilities and features enrich better screen resolution and control on remote devices
We have been able to identify inappropriate websites that students have discovered. For example anonymous proxies, movie streaming, etc. Through this software, we have been able to identify the students and in turn block the websites.
We have been able to identify which students have been using other user's accounts. This was an unintended side effect of the software. If a teacher knows that a student is using a Chromebook but the student is not showing up in the software, we are easily able to deduce that the user must be using another student's account.
We have 12 local distributors of our products within our country, each hundreds of miles from our engineering department. Providing technical support without the remote access functions provided by TeamViewer would negatively impact our business since it would force us to mobilize specialized personnel with the costs that this implies.
Given the current state of technology, it is unacceptable for a customer to delay a repair until specialized personnel arrive. The benefits are not only measured in money but also in the speed of the solution. In short, more satisfied customers!
