Considered Both Products
RemotePC
Chose RemotePC
Although TeamViewer stands as the top product for remote support, the same goes for its pricing. A small business like ours wouldn't be able to afford software like TeamViewer and we would never be using most of its features.
On the other end, Splashtop is an affordable option, …
Chose RemotePC
TeamViewer has a lot of features (maybe even too many) and feels very overpriced. RemotePC delivers much greater value.
Chose RemotePC
RemotePC offers a more cost-effective solution compared to TeamViewer, with similar features for remote desktop access. I selected RemotePC because it provides better value for smaller teams or individual users, offering lower pricing tiers and equally robust security measures, …
Chose RemotePC
RemotePC is remarkably similar to TeamViewer. It uses a similar interface to TeamViewer software. When I first started using it, I thought it was a little slower, but after a month, I noticed it was almost the same. It is stable and does exactly what I need (Internet-based …
Chose RemotePC
I was tired of dealing with the free 1 minute algorithm lockup, even when I wasn't a business. I prefer to pay something (a lot less) that I ended up discovering is even easier to use and better than them
Chose RemotePC
Its just easy to use and does exactly what is advertised. There is nothing complicated about it. If you need access to your home PC from anywhere in the world on a computer with a browser or a smart phone, you now have it for a super low price.
Chose RemotePC
This software offers a similar feature set at a much better price point, making it a better value.
Chose RemotePC
It is pretty similar. Splashtop is good but a bit pricey. RemotePC is more cost effective. Over all my favorite has been bomgar, RemotePC is better then kaseya.
Chose RemotePC
I think RemotePC is cost-effective, has excellent performance and responsiveness, and is user-friendly.
Chose RemotePC
As I mentioned earlier all the above products had difficulty working with Apple Operating Systems. Difficult to set the optimum security settings. Problems arose every time an OS update occurred.
Chose RemotePC
RemotePC provides comprehensive features and secure reliable connections at value pricing for our fixed remote admin needs.
Chose RemotePC
Just as good and much less expensive. Has all the features as the others have and I have no complaints so far.
Chose RemotePC
I purchased RemotePC to use on computers that had an issue with Splashtop. Splashtop was purchased due to the huge Logmein price increase. All three have very similar tools and uses. Logmein is a very solid tool but the pricing is restrictive for small companies. Splashtop
TeamViewer
Chose TeamViewer
I have used RemotePC. The controls did not seem as solid and refined as TeamViewer. From a budgetary prospective, RemotePC is way less expensive. However, TeamViewer seemed to have a more solid connection with fewer artifacts when transitioning between open windows. RemotePC is …
Chose TeamViewer
TeamViewer is much useful for large scale companies where as RemotePC is more useful for small scale companies. TeamViewer has more better benefits and Userinterface in comparions to RemotePC. TeamViewer provide AR remote help can also be integrated with most common used tools …
Chose TeamViewer
Very easy, no advanced config needed. Highly reliable even on low bandwidth. Strong encryption, 2fA session logging. Work on cross-platfrom like windows, Linux, macOS etc. Smooth even under average network. Session recording, unattended accessc and chat. Strong enterprise …
Chose TeamViewer
TeamViewer is always ahead of the game in new innovation and technological improvements compared to its competitors. I have always found TeamViewer's UI and UX user-friendly and quite easy to use. The security of connection is quite strong as well which makes it better compared …
Chose TeamViewer
Easier access faster than some of the others. We love the mobile feature where you can use the app to connect when on the road. Also it has the ability to access cell phones as well, which many times helps us help a client with their iphones. Great feature. There have been …
Chose TeamViewer
TeamViewer is far better than the other programs

While at the office, I needed documents from my home PC. I was able to use the browser at the office to access my home PC, grab the document and download it. You can also browse the web from work via your home PC, if you know what I mean. Framerates are great, so it felt natural the whole time. Also the app works on Android without any issues

TeamViewer
If someone were to ask me for a recommendation, I would honestly say that it was the best option for me. Many times, my team members, other therapy department consultants, or doctors have encountered a problem with their systems that they are unable to resolve on their own. They just reached out to me and explained their concerns. Once their system is connected to me, I can resolve their situation in a very short amount of time.

Pros
IDrive
  • Easy setup, Within minutes of Installation I was up and running
  • Security - OTP 2-Factor authentication, passed security testing.
  • Performance - Though I have not fully pushed the boundary it performs as if I was sitting at my desk at home from an Android tablet in the parking lot of work.
  • Value - We all have taken a gamble when buying a product. This is one of the purchases that I am actually happy with. It is a great value for what you get.

  • The update Cycle of the Desktop app is sometimes unstable. We downloaded the latest TeamViewer Desktop App from the official site, and it immediately asks us to update.
  • Pricing tier for small teams can be improved.
  • Live subtitles for audio from remote device can be implemented.

We need this tool in our day to day business. It is what we do all day remoting into clients devices. In this day and age we can access devices all over the world as long as we have secure internet connection. It certainly saves money in gas, and even if you are away you can help.

At this point I have no issue with RemotePC's overall usability. It continues to meet my needs for what is required for me to run my business. I would like to see continued improvements with RemotePC's allowing me to continue to work remotely. Waking or starting the computer would be a plus.

TeamViewer is a reliable and really strong tool for accessing remote IT platforms secure and fast. We don't know any product that provide us such strong functionality to make our life as a internationally recognized MES provider with DIAMES with an international clientele so easy. We look forward for any new TeamViewer functionality that supports us even more.

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.

We used TeamViewer within our scope of a unified endpoint management. Access rights are managed by location and user, both in regard to the state legislation and the company’s regulations. Our IT dashboard has now integrated the remote support KPIs which i derived from TeamViewer usage data.

A small business like ours wouldn't be able to afford software like TeamViewer and we would never be using most of its features. On the other end, Splashtop is an affordable option, but its deployment is a little too complicated. RemotePC was our choice, with an easy deployment process and a pricing program that's easy to understand and within our budget.

AnyDesk, despite being relatively light on system utilization, didn’t offer some of the pro collaboration features that we required. All the functionalities that were part of TeamViewer matched well with the functionality, ease, and cost aspects needed to support our team's work.

Almost immediately. We could not support our clients effectively without TeamViewer. Its reliable, fast and allows us to do our work in a moments notice.
  • The core of our business is providing remote IT support to unmanned stations. Without a program like TeamViewer, we would be unable to operate.
  • On numerous occasions, we have avoided having to travel to site on top as well as raise a callout with local agents, saving us many thousands.
  • We can work from home or support our service technicians on the field any place, any time.
