My review of such a great piece of software, Teamviewer!
- Very lightweight and minimal resources with older PCs
- Easy to use and set up
- Very stable connection and almost no lag
- The new look is too big, takes up the whole screen on computers with small screens, whereas the older version was smaller and compact.
- To set up unattended access you have to go deep into the settings
- It could use a different method of login instead of creating an account
Setting up can take a bit of time specially unattended access since you must create an account and all.
A synonym for remote access
- remote access
- remote control
- file transmission
- user interface while in remote access
- princing plans
TeamViewer is the best option if it fits into your budget!
- Super easy for just about any user to install
- Options for manual/single use and automatic remote control
- Free option available for end users
- Price point may seem high for smaller organizations
- Unable to share large files
- Different versions of TeamViewer are often incompatible, requiring manual updating
TeamViewer for Non-profits
- Full access to the remote computer's screen.
- Access to files on the remote computer.
- Setting up TeamViewer is never easy. I always get it wrong a few times before I finally get it right.
- I trust the security features in TeamViewer, but I'm sure that the presence of TeamViewer on a computer opens some security vulnerabilities.
TeamViewer is at the top of it's class and a must have tool!
- Remote Console view to fix issues on users laptops
- Auto config and auto install
- Organization in UI of computers with TeamViewer installed
- Easy to make groups of computers that others can access based on access controls
- There are ads that pop every now and then. I get ads but not really on an already paid product
- I wish you could do a batch script install. Where you could select multiple computers to run one script on at once, instead of one by one.
- I wish you could edit users within the Desktop Client instead of having to go to the web app to manage.

- Linux Client Improvements
Great remote support software
We also use TeamViewer (host) on servers, so we can login to the servers anytime we want.
TeamViewer is also able to assist in other ways. It can run Windows updates, do backups and more. Currently we are not using these options.
- Assist customers with problems
- Connect to servers anytime
- User/rights management
- Reports with connections
- Since the last update the program crashes more then usual, did go back to the 'old' interface, which works great. I'm sure that the new interface wil work great also soon, if not already.
- Prices are pretty high.
For our support staff it's easy to connect to our customers. No more need to exchange passwords.
For our engineers it's easy to connect to servers unattended at all times.
TeamViewer, as good as it looks
- Remote work
- Troubleshooting
- Peer to peer remote explanation
- Usability with ipads
- Responsiveness with shortcuts
- Connectivity with periferical
Solve your user's problems and never have to leave your desk!
- Brand familiarity - I find that even if one of our users hasn't used Teamviewer before, they've heard of it.
- General ease of use - having a user to load and execute the quick support module on their end (for me to remote in) is pretty straightforward.
- Connection visibility - the remote user knows when I'm connected - and when I'm not.
- It seems that I've had previous trouble with users trying to load the quick support module only to find that their machine already had Teamviewer installed. It would be nice if the full install and the quick support modules were unaware of each other.
- As one who has used Teamviewer for a while, the 'new interface' was (is) pretty confusing. I find myself switching back to the old one regularly when I can't find something I'm looking for in a hurry.

Fast Remote Software
- Fast remote access on slow Internet connections
- File transfer
- No password remote access when integrated with RMMs
- Remote printing
- Slow remote access with multiple monitors
- The tab showing somebody is accessing the end-user computer can be easily dismissed resulting on closing the remote session
When integrated with RMM software, you do not to remember the end-user TeamViewer password that TeamViewer generates every 4 hours.
TeamViewer tends to crash on Windows Server machines and it will show the servers as offline when they are not.
Remote printing is not as reliable as with other remote access software like LogMeIn.
It is slow when using multiple monitors
Simple - Effective - Intuitive
- Remote Computer Control
- No access control/login

Sercure Remote Connection

- Full Remote Access
- Chating
- File transfer
- it freezes a little some times
- could use a little less bandwith for smoother connenction
- reponse is bit hazy on video chat
For connecting over the most secure servers as it has a room for being controlled by others as well so it would be best to aviod it in that scenario.
Great Solution as Easy to use and Work.

- Easy connect
- Compatibility issues in Select OS
- NOt suitable in VMware VDI solutions

1. Remote Support - When a user logs a job about a particular issue we can conveniently take control of their device to be able to diagnose and fix simple issues without the need to make a site visit. This allows us to be more efficient and able to fix more problems within a shorter period of time leading to greater user satisfaction.
2. Software demonstrations/training: We also assist our users with using various pieces of software. Teamviewer is a fantastic tool as it is easy to take control of a device and screen share to demonstrate software functionality and how to use certain features of the software. The tool also allows you to record the session for audit purposes and also to allow users to reference the training or demonstration to look back on in the future.
