Reviews
(51-75 of 483)TeamViewer, its expensive if you want SSO and advanced security
We prefer to use other products due to security concerns. It has become very hard to secure access to TeamViewer unless you pay for the most expensive enterprise license.
- Remote support toolset is fully featured
- Consistent, easy and familiar user interface
- Performance is good
- Pricing and licensing
- SSO missing on basic plans
- Security, loved by threat actors
Powerful remote access but with some issues.
- Provides system level access to client PCs.
- Provides unattended access.
- We can reconnect after a reboot.
- Needs a compatible version.
- Needs to be installed on both connecting systems.
- There's no free client version.
Teamviewer (can't work without it).
- Remote access.
- Fast connections.
- Secure connections.
- Simple interface.
- I use basic features with no issues.
- Nothing comes to mind.
TeamViewer Review.
- Remote access.
- File transfer,
- Screen recording,
- Ease of use,
- Ability to change device accessing remote computers - difficult to find confirmation of devices assigned (max of 3 is ok) , because I use more than three devices to remotely access customers; I am disappointed that there is a limit to how many changes per year can be made, and the ambiguity of this restriction (i.e., what is the count for device changes already made).
Great product and well worth the investment.
- Connects relatively easily.
- Easy to add devices that are regularly accessed.
- Easy to download and upload files to remote sites.
- Good at managing users.
- It seems uncertain at times how we can use the same account on both ends.
- Leave out the advertising.
Better than most of the remote management options out there.
- Easy Access remoting in (and notifying users).
- Controls and access to the end point system.
- Sorting machines by type, function, and organizational unit.
- 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.
- Easy to use encryption while remotely connected
- Ease of connecting to the other computer
- Provides logging of remote access
- Transferring files between computer
- Better connectivity performance
- Updates to TeamViewer are hard to navigate and remain consistent
- Support of multi-users
- The UI is clunky
TeamViewer is not well-suied for larger issues on the remote computer where additional IT support is needed to fix the issue.
It is also not well-suited for larger issues that require more time since the performance can be laggy.
Clean, Simple and Light.
- Screenshare
- Quick simple access.
- Easy to allow the assister to control of the system.
- Super light on the systems we put it on.
- Access can be a little clunky in terms of passwords and access like that.
- A lot of clicks to access the download link on the site.
Connect remotely, but at a much higher cost
- Instant and quick connection to any device, with very little issues
- The ability to scale-up a display and emulate a RDP session without using the RDP protocol
- Ease of installation and integration
- Simple interface for technicians and staff
- The admin interface is dated and difficult to use
- It is difficult for us to walk end-users through installing the software. Once they provide us the codes to connect, we can usually get on. But getting to that point is not difficult for those that are not technically inclined
- The price has continued to climb and features are not added at the same pace to make the price increases worthwhile
- Customer support has been difficult or unresponsive

Remote assistance with TeamViewer

- Secure
- Use microsoft authenticator 2fa

TeamViewer comes highly recommended!
- Remote Access
- Excellent Connectivity
- Easy to download software
- Excellent for companies with IT departments
- Less download options - I was a little confused the most recent time I needed to download TeamViewer on my personal computer. I wasn’t very clear on which option to choose.
- No other issues seen with this software for me. It works flawlessly from different places in the world!
Great tool for organization.
- It enables IT department to provide remote support efficiently.
- It is easy to install and use.
- Needs to download.
TeamViewer Use for Remote Troubleshooting and Machine Builds.
- Allows for remote access and control.
- Allows typing and copying and pasting.
- Allows for audio communication.
- Audio controls are not easily noticed and can interfere with the audio from a Teams call if not turned off.
- The option for reconnecting after a customer reboot is easily missed, and you will need to get the new password that is generated to reconnect because the password changes after a reboot.
- needs better auto-reconnect function.
There is a Team in TeamViewer.
- Remote Connectivity.
- Easy maintenance.
- Easy troubleshooting.
- Server connectivity.
- Mobile application stability improvements.
- Improve lag on low bandwidth connections.
- Cheaper or free tier for development purposes.
The best ally for remote technical support!
- Actually, the way to access the remote PC is very well developed; it turns out to be a simple and, at the same time, safe process for the client.
- For our specific technical support situation, the ability to transfer files to the remote PC is essential; TeamViewer meets that requirement perfectly and in a simple way.
- The possibility of using TeamViewer in free mode for non-commercial use is very welcome.
- We have found situations of version incompatibility between the local PC and the remote PC that prevented the use of the system until they were updated to the most recent versions. It would be good to simplify that requirement if possible.
- Although it is logical that the better the internet connection, the better the system works, perhaps the use of bandwidth could be optimized even further and be able to function fluidly on slow internet connections.
- Although we do not need to transfer large files, we have seen that it becomes a bit complicated when the file to be transferred is large. However, it has worked perfectly for our daily use.
- Interface lists all managed computers in one spot
- Multiple simultaneous remote connections in tabs or different windows
- Interactive remote-control - allows sharing control with user physically present
- Easy setup - no port forwarding required, works with NAT
- Also has a free version for personal use at home
- Remote control on mobile app works really well
- Questionable reputation for security in the past
- Expensive for very small-scale use cases
Remote support done smart.
- Security is great.
- The client manages connectivity very well.
- The interface is easy for end users to understand and navigate.
- I do not like the what's new pop-up, it can confuse users.
- The data transfer screen can be confusing at times.
- The program sometimes forgets it is licensed and asks for a login.
Classic Tool for Remote Support
- Quick and easy access to remote clients or servers
- Prompt for user's consent or direct access
- Well known tool in the IT world
- The once very simple and straight forward UI is getting more and more cluttered
- Licensing not very transparent - perpetual does not mean it will always work
- Access is per default not restricted to internal IT, a user could let anyone access his company pc
Temporal access is possible thanks to automatically changing passwords.
Everyone in IT knows it or heard about it.
In the end it is just one tool of many. It's not particularly better, just very common and kind of a standard.
When installing some software on a remote computer classic remote desktop is still the better solution.
TeamViewer Makes Sense.
- It is great for logging into cameras while off property to view them.
- Its great for troubleshooting Guest Service POS systems.
- It's great for trouble shooting Food and Beverage POS systems.
- There is not much to be improved upon.
- Support could always be faster, though Teamviewer is easy to use.
TeamViewer
- Performance is good.
- Easy for techs to use.
- Has good built in tools.
- Needs better support.
- Needs a better way to deal with duplicate machines.
- It should be easier to add machines to an organization.
