GoTo MeetingTeamViewer
Considered Both Products
GoTo Meeting
Chose GoTo Meeting
We used Cisco Webex Meeting with the spark boards and when you could get everything synced, it would work great. GoToMeeting was a lot more user-friendly, way more than Cisco Webex Meeting. Since we already had the built-in desktop share feature, this pushed TeamViewer out the …
Chose GoTo Meeting
GoToMeeting is a good solution to invite non team members to meetings compared to Zoom. They don't have to create an account and the dial in options are very clear in the meeting invite. TeamViewer is a better solution for controlling end users computers for hand on technical …
Chose GoTo Meeting
GoTo Meeting is much better than TeamViewer. It is easier to use and share a desktop. It makes remote support of end-users computers quick and easy. GoTo Meeting has a leg up on ConnectWise Control because it has integrated voice conference lines. You do not have to go find …
Chose GoTo Meeting
I feel like GoTo Meeting is ranked up there with Zoom and TeamViewer for virtual meetings, but in the overall product coverage, GoTo Meeting wins the award.
Chose GoTo Meeting
For meetings, it stacks reasonably well, although pricey for larger firms.
Chose GoTo Meeting
GoTo Meeting is in the middle of the pack. The reason we utilized GoTo Meeting is because it was originally Jive. Jive was in our backyard, we knew the owner. When it was Jive, it worked great. We helped contribute to the jive applications, we used it for free for them and we …
Chose GoTo Meeting
Our cost for Zoom was lower than GoToMeeting. The free tier of Zoom for 40 minute meetings is sufficient for most of our meetings.

MS Teams was included as part of our M365 subscription and integrates with all our other Office apps.
Chose GoTo Meeting
GoTo Meeting is more secure than the listed similar products and allows for more engagement and collaboration. We currently pay for Zoom and have Google Meet through a bundled package through Google. Zoom was more utilized for situations where audio and video quality are the …
Chose GoTo Meeting
Functionality amongst all the standard video/chat conference collaboration tools is about the same with the exception of better integration of other companies' software applications in their portfolio. I ran into issues with buffering with users on low bandwidth or "hot spot" …
Chose GoTo Meeting
Needs to catch up and do a lot to meet the expectations. Other platforms especially Zoom has exceptional tools and features. Stability is the key which is highly doubtful. The one-touch dial also needs to be improved when joining from the phone. Audio stability features, …
Chose GoTo Meeting
GoTo Meeting is great in many ways and wins over the competition in that it offers great features and that using it is easy as well. In addition, the software is very stable and supports many participants.
Chose GoTo Meeting
[GoTo Meeting] is ideal for conferences and can accommodate up to 3,000 participants and the vendor nevertheless offers low-tiered plans for smaller meetings suited to remote work or online classes.
Chose GoTo Meeting
It offers all of the basic functionalities and is very user friendly. Pricing stacks up fair and could easily service a mid size company with nationwide locations.
Chose GoTo Meeting
Easier to use and lower bandwidth requirements. I like the scheduling features more than other softwares I've used in the past although I think there is room for improvement.

Chose GoTo Meeting
We have had chats with Zoom and have a few employees using Zoom to demo. Really we have found they are about even in quality and features. Both have good chrome extensions and are easy to use. I personally have used both Zoom and GoToMeeting while meeting with software …
TeamViewer
Chose TeamViewer
Teamviewer might not have all the features other products have but it does it's job so good it's not worth switching from. Remote control is the core and that's what they have done best when we have compared other products. Working with software suppliers has also given us a …
Chose TeamViewer
GoToMeeting is better for demonstrations. TeamViewer is a great support tool to see what your end user is doing. TeamViewer can be used to access remote machines and servers, although remote desktop is more reliable for server management.

TeamViewer can be accessed for free and …
Chose TeamViewer
I feel TeamViewer is simpler to use and performs at a higher level. We experienced lag and clunky UI when we sampled GoToMeeting. The TeamViewer option provided the level of support that we were looking for. The simplicity to install on users' machines and customize our login …
Chose TeamViewer
TeamViewer is much faster and had fewer connectivity issues as well as configuration issues as compared to GoToMeeting and LogMeIn. TeamViewer also has a free version that can be used for non-commercial personal use that makes it easily accessible. TeamViewer is competitively …
Chose TeamViewer
I have previously used the suite of GoTo products for the same functionality that TeamViewer has. While the GoTo family provides the ability to host meetings and webinars that TeamViewer does not, I found that TeamViewer was a much easier platform to work with.
Chose TeamViewer
TeamViewer is lightweight and the installation is easy compared to ConnectWise which requires an expert to install and maintain. ConnctWise requires about three servers to be set up and users to be trained to use it. TeamViewer has an easy GUI and is very intuitive, making it …
Chose TeamViewer
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
TeamViewer was more robust, professional and polished than the competition we checked out. We use TeamViewer for our remote meetings and to record quick toturials. We have been very pleased with its performance. Remote access is great and simple with Teamviewer. GoToConnect …
Chose TeamViewer
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
Chose TeamViewer
There are other meeting, screen sharing, and collaboration software products that do well, but in my opinion, TeamViewer excels in the most important aspects of screen sharing or remote support software. It has the most high quality audio/video performance, it has many …
Chose TeamViewer
TeamViewer is much better than the above products, as it does a better job with support.
Chose TeamViewer
Previously, those who support the use of this type of tools to increase the efficiency of the processes present in much of our daily tasks, tried the use, in some cases very fleetingly, of softwares such as: Microsoft Office 365, the Chrome Remote destokp and the VNC Connect, …
Chose TeamViewer
TeamViewer is similar and works as well as the others.
Chose TeamViewer
I'm very comfortable with TeamViewer and I've used them for a long time. I moved from LogMeIn before and I moved to TeamViewer because of the ease of use that TeamViewer provided. The customer facing experience for TeamViewer was also a big factor as to why I chose TeamViewer …
Chose TeamViewer
I think it compares very well, teamviewer is used mostly because of its ease of use and quick setup. Also, the vendors seem to use it also and makes for a very affordable and quick solution.
Chose TeamViewer
Originally TeamViewer had great technology and a good price. What drew me to it was that it was cheaper than LogMeIn Rescue and you could purchase a perpetual license. It soon became clear that they broke functionality between older and new versions. If you plan on only …
Chose TeamViewer
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 …
Chose TeamViewer
We've looked into other similar products but prefer TeamViewer. The features and ease of use balances out the cost over the competitive products.
Chose TeamViewer
Teamviewer is easily available and has a trial version.
Chose TeamViewer
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.
Chose TeamViewer
Although I have used TeamViewer in my previous job, the reason I am using teamViewer now is because of my company's licensure agreement with WebEx Meetings. However in my past experience I think TeamViewer made some easy to use features for IDs and passwords with which an …
Chose TeamViewer
The remote control feature that TeamViewer provides is far better than any other product simply because of the fact that it is extremely simple to use. You can never hit any other button or click on any other options while using it. Things are very clearly indicated, this makes …
Chose TeamViewer
Most of TeamViewer's competitors (GoToMeeting, GoToAssist, WebEx, MyTrueCloud) are priced on a per-month basis. Some companies (like WebEx) also do not allow licenses to "float", they require that the license is tied to a specific user. This simply did not fit our use case. …

Likelihood to Recommend
GoTo (formerly LogMeIn)
I provide regular training as a big portion of my job. There is weekly training with an infinite number of users in attendance on any given date—GoTo Meeting is not the best option for this because I would have to mute users as they join the meeting. However, I also provide frequent training sessions to a small number of users that feature more individualized content, and having them able to mute/unmute at will is a better fit for a smaller group with in-depth materials.

TeamViewer
Where "TeamViewer" works well :- We mostly use TeamViewer to help Emplyees quickly access their office computers remotely, specially when they're working from Home or travelling. For Example - If someone forgets an important file or need to run software that's only on their office PC , TeamViewer lets them connect easily and keep working without delay. Its also super helpful for our IT team, - Instead of physically going around fixing issues, they can just connect remotely and fix the problems faster, which saves a lot of time. Where TeamViewer isn't great :- the mobile app can be slow and a bit clunky, making it tough to do anything complicated on the go. Also, for bigger teams, Important features like detailed reports and user management are only in the pricier plan. So, if you need advanced tools, TeamViewer might be a hard choice .

  • TeamViewer makes remote access and gives us best remote experience during our scan in their network without any disruptions.
  • TeamViewer makes remote access and control extremely easy and reliable
  • Another strong feature is file transfer, which allows us to securely send patches, documents, or tools during a session

Cons
GoTo (formerly LogMeIn)
  • We occasionally experience slow performance during screen sharing.
  • The help center should have detailed tutorials on commonly asked FAQs and also to initially set up the profile.
  • One of my initial thoughts regarding recordings was to edit them in the future when the product changes.

TeamViewer
  • It does not allow a free package for commercial purposes which can be substantial cost for some businesses
  • Being a remote access tool and not properly configured, it is very susceptible to security breaches
  • Being a heavy resource consumer makes it slow down order version systems and those that are not properly updated.

The simplicity of GoToMeetings desktop, mobile, and web-based applications make it a very robust and user-friendly meeting solution. At times, it may be more complex than needed, but it is nice to have so many features that can be used if needed. Once installed, it is very easy to use and navigate.

When we have issues, they seem to respond quickly and do everything they can to help us. They have even tried to find other ways we could get more use out of their product, or improve the way we are currently using it. Overall, their support has been fairly good for us.

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.

Many times, it seems like GoTo Meeting requires less bandwidth to run. We noticed with a few test machines that if you have over twenty video streams, this product could handle the load better than if we used Microsoft Teams and had many video streams.

First of all the overall experience of TeamViewer feels and looks user friendly more than AnyDesk. The secure connection of 256-bit AES encryption and RSA 2048-bit key exchange. With TeamViewer, experienced users have numerous advanced options to help employees effectively, while with AnyDesk, you don't get. The mobile version of TeamViewer has almost the same options as the desktop version.
