Perfect utility for remote work.
I often have to work remotely and this was the tool I used to ensure that I could still get into my system when working from offsite, a remote location or from home. I leave TeamViewer running on the host machine and then remote in when required. The primary concern was reliability as I needed something that wouldnt crash or shut down since that would significantly impact my work. In all the time I used this, I never ran into that issue.
- Being able to reboot and still connect back to the host machine is a life saver. There might be times when your PC locks up or an update causes the system to reboot. In those scenarios you want something that will reconnect and get you back in.
- It is super reliable. I counted heavily on it to not crash or close itself when needed and it never let me down. Nothing worse than think you can remote into your PC and finding out your remote tool wasnt running. Never had this issues with TeamViewer.
- Speed was also really good. Working from Hotels etc means I am not always on blazing fast internet so I needed something that would work well even on low bandwidth. This performed admirably.
- The mobile version is a little difficult to navigate. I understand part of that is because you are using it on a smaller screen and controlling a different OS but it can still do better in that scenario.

Remote support, for the right situation
We use Team Viewer to provide remote support to clients. Each support technician has access to the quick support function and also a grouping of clients that are assigned to them.
- Custom branding: the customer sees our brand, our logo, and our text when they open Team Viewer.
- Ease of use: our technicians can simply click a computer on their dashboard and be connected to the client in seconds. Once connected, we can easily support the client, drop files, and use a whiteboard function if need be.
- File transfers: file transfers are easy to do through Team Viewer by using the inbuilt tools on the toolbar.
- Custom branding: while the option to custom brand what the customer sees when they open Team Viewer exists, the option to customize the program as a whole (like what Screen Connect does) does not. Team Viewer is not 100% white label, as you cannot change the program name, icon, or taskbar settings.
- Annoying popups: we purchased the pro version of Team Viewer 12. The next month Team Viewer 13 came out. Since that day, we have gotten constant popups and emails offering us discounts to upgrade to the next level. Even after clicking the option to never show again, the annoying messages return within a day or two.
- Two-factor authentication: perhaps a necessary evil? But who on earth is going to want to add a computer to our account if they are not being supported by us or have access to that account? Each time we add a new computer to our account, we must verify it through a link sent to our email, which we don't always have access to. It's an annoying and timely second step that should not be required.

Workhorse that delivers, allows the team to view what they need.
It is used to support client workstations and home computers. We support a variety of non technical and less savvy users. This allows for easy remote access, but allows for peace of mind of each computer owner that their PC is both secure (thanks to the option of ad-hoc password access) as well as continual support to be able to make things right. TeamViewer is priced well and easy to use. It is also used as a VPN alternative for some users/systems.
- Easy to use by both support staff and customers.
- Has a variety of strong options, including password protection that has useful features.
- The TeamViewer website could be easier to use.
- Pricing could be better.

TeamViewer! Eyes for the team.
TeamViewer is being used as a helping tool for software support teams in our organization. We assist customers with connecting into their machines and give them walkthroughs of the processes and record and report issues with video evidence of the happenings. Recordings from TeamViewer play a vital role in recording a case for the Dev team to see the issue and then work it out accordingly.

The TeamViewer tool is used by the company's IT department. More specifically, the remote technical support team.

- It always depends on the speed of the internet.

TeamViewer, a good choice everyone knows.
We use TeamViewer in all departments. For us, it's an easy way to give access to a personal assistant or a help desk assistant. We use several applications for different vendors and TeamViewer is a tool used for all of them. This tool helps us to collaborate and save time when troubleshooting to get a solution as fast as we can.
- Easy to use.
- Everyone knows about it. And It's very easy to get and install.
- One side license is enough to start using it.
- The option to save the session with an administrator password helps to improve security and user control.
- The price of upgrades. It supposed to be a lifetime license but it's not when you realize that the version you get goes obsolete and migration is almost as expensive as getting a new license.
- It does not have a lockout option to avoid both users (local and remote) to control at the desktop at the same time. Change controls between users would be a good improvement
- License scheme. A subscription license including upgrades could be better.

TeamView usage review as a software to remotely get access to another employee's device
It is used by the whole organisation - across all the teams. The main usage purpose of this product in my company is for our service desk team to be able to connect to our machines remotely and fix issues for us whilst we can observe on our device's screen what's happening on the screen.
- Easy to provide the ID to let service desk team member to connect to the employee device
- An ability to follow what the other person with the access to your device is doing real time
- Seamless usage on both ends without delays
- An option to copy-paste the teamViewer ID in an easier way. as far as I know, currently I have to re-type it
- Prettier graphics

Seamlessly access a different world, from the comfort of your seat.
TeamViewer is used by our organisation in two main ways. The first way in which TeamViewer is used is by the internal IT department to provide remote support to users across multiple sites. This facilitates screen sharing and rapid solving of problems. The second way in which TeamViewer is used is by individuals who wish to access their desktop computers from a remote location. It solves a major problem that employees still have access to their computers in emergency situations and can handle these situations from afar.
- Easy to set up and use by an inexperienced user.
- Encrypted data transmission allowing secure use across open networks.
- Access control within TeamViewer allows only certain users to access a remote workstation whilst it is logged off, thereby meaning any attempts to hack into the computer via Teamviewer will not be allowed if not a permitted user.
- The connection from TeamViewer to mobile devices is present, but it is not the most polished integration at present. This may be the fault of the mobile-side application though.
- Options to record remote sessions are available, but obscure. The option to record can be set automatically though.
- Settings with regards to when TeamViewer is available for a connection, and in what mode it is running (Unattended or Logged-in) are not clear to a new user.
Teamviewer is so far the most preferred software in my org for everyday remote support requests for installing software and other troubleshooting tasks as and when they arise. It is well built with an enterprise-grade UI and minimalistic learning curve to start off using it. The value it brings to our organization is tremendous and its easy portability between different systems is a great plus.
- Easy to access from any type of device, be it tablet, mobile or PC
- Its multiplatform interoperability is just awesome
- Ease of use is simply adorable
- Commercial user license is on a higher side which restricts small company users to utilize its services
- Some good efforts to be made in order to make it more stable on the premises having lower bandwidth internet connection

TeamViewer is a team player!
At my previous position, we used TeamViewer two-fold. One for IT troubleshooting network/PC issues remotely and secondly, to update the presentation slideshows on multiple monitors across two campuses, one in Florida, one in Massachusetts.
- Login is seamless to any installed base via the app.
- Multiple user access streamlines workflow.
- Remote access to multiple desktops at work.
- When a system has a pending Windows update, TeamViewer has connectivity issues.
- Set the number of users able to be logged on at once. Someone needs to log out for someone to log in at certain points.
- File uploading remotely to an active desktop has connectivity issues.

Complete remote assistance software
Currently, TeamViewer is being used by some departments of the organization, like Information Technology, ITAS-Information Technology Applications and Services. It is used to provide remote support to clients, and to our employees too. With Team Viewer each support assistant can quickly access any machine in the organization's intranet. Team Viewer is really useful to our service desk, for helping any employee with tech support or even in-depth technical support.

How TeamViewer saves us time and builds customer loyalty
We actively use TeamViewer for supporting our users. It is also used as remote access on our own computers when traveling. We use it from our Linux PCs to help our users and subscribers using Windows, Linux, and Mac without any problem. It saves us most of the necessary travel that would be required without it. We are able to solve most technical support problems and satisfy our customers remotely.
- It is multiplatform and supports all desktop and mobile platforms.
- You can easily transfer files with a simple drag and drop.
- Provides a quick connection.
- Allows a secure connection.
- Sometimes the screen gets blocked.
- In some cases, it requires a user present at the other end.

TeamViewer gets the (remote) job done with customizable configuration to match your environment.
We actively use TeamViewer for supporting our users (5000+ user base) remotely without having to know what their IP address is. So even if they are outside of the company networks, we can still get to them without issue. It is very handy and the users can demonstrate the issue they are experiencing which will allow us to attempt to resolve it.
- It keeps track of remote hosts well, letting me know once they are online after a reboot for example.
- The security is customizable so you can lock it down pretty well.
- The speed of the remote display is very good and is also customizable if you are connecting to a slower link.
- Would be good if logs were kept in a centralized location so it can be determined quickly who remoted into what computer.
- A native Linux application would be good to have as right now you need to run it through Wine.
- Wish it would support a little older Android mobile device versions.
