Reviews
(1-25 of 271)- Remote access to clients
- Data transfer from and to the clients
- Get system information of clients
- Management GUI
- Connection speed to clients
Since the last big update and redesign of the GUI it's more uncomfortable, some settings are hard to find and also the performance is much worsers then before.

Singing the Praises of TeamViewer!
- Cuts through permissions, firewalls, and other restrictions that other software often cannot get through.
- Responsiveness of TeamViewer is nearly as real-time as the actual workstation.
- Mirroring hardware and resolution is superb.
- The ability to easily chat while remote assistance is active is also invaluable.
- My primary hindrance for using TeamViewer as a tech decision maker is the price points of the subscription.
- There have also been a couple challenges for functionality on Mac due to OS updates or TeamViewer updates.
- The requirement of remote computers to log in with the organization or individual’s login has also been a challenge…especially when passwords change.

Great Software

- Prevent lost connection when Iphone screens turns off.
A Good Alternative for Remote Support
- Remote connection.
- Saving time.
- Ability to monitor the recorded devices.
- The connection time can be slow in some cases.
- Difficult to use due to version differences.
Managing remote unmanned sites in remote locations.
- Quick and responsive control of sites, even ones with slow connections.
- Accurate machine status despite sometimes flaky connections.
- Sending commands to machines.
- Adjusting view preferences.
- Better user support when making requests.
- TeamViewer signing out unexpectedly.

I Loved it and recommended for use.
- Remotely access computers
- File Sharing
- Chat through voice or text
- The speed needs some work
- The security is good but sometimes it doesn't connect even with the correct password or Username
- If other user is non technical then matching latest versions and then connect is very difficult.
As well as inviting potential new customer sharing with them online insights of our Manufacturing Execution System DIAMES platform.
- Give us internationally active remote access to DIAMES servers at customer side for support issues.
- Give us the opportunity to present our DIAMES solution live to potential new customers without physical visits.
- Enable us with three business locations on three continents sharing a common IT environment without physical visiting another of our business location.
- Gives us the opportunity sharing a life problem in our DIAMES application with software tool providers when we recognize a problem for which we need support.
- We are very happy about the TeamViewer functionality and recognize a lot of advanced functionality in comparison with AnyDesk for example.
- It's fast and very reliable.
- We think that TeamViewer is a very secure platform.
- We like to use new feature and functions when they get available.
TeamViewer: Unleashing power of Remote Colloboration
- Collaboration: great SECURE access of shared documents in real-time
- Streamline collaboration on projects
- ensuring secure access to specific documents to authorized memebers only.
- Resolving techincal issues remotely.
- Performance issues in low-bandwith situation / slow-internet connections
- Missing project management integration
- Absense of offline functionalaity to work offline
- Missing customization options for users per their needs and interface
It sometimes stalls a lot when internet bandwith is limited and missing offline collaborative features.
TeamViewer and the ease of remote support
- Easy access - clients for numerous operating systems
- Works with or without and account
- File transfers are seamless and fast
- Erroneous detection of commercial use
- Nothing more to add. Works very well.
Secure Remote Access through TeamViewer
- By using TeamViewer, our IT support team has been able to solve the problems very quickly
- Since we can refresh the password, the security of the session is assured, so the same IT support consultant can no longer access my PC with the same password.
- Files can be moved and copied through out the PCs, so that the required files, tools can easily be moved and installed through the session
- Sometimes, it is taking a bit of time to start the session (the incoming connection to load), so that the initializing time of the session can be increased
- There's no option to create own ID as Your ID. So, it will be user-friendly if we can generate our own TeamViewer ID in our desired way
- When the network connection is changed (connected to a VPN while the session is active), the session gets disconnected, and sometimes have to restart the TeamViewer, so it's better if TeamViewer can identify the network connection changes automatically and automatically reconnect using the new network.
Good for desktop to desktop, but lacks easy web access
- Ease of access from desktop app
- Announcing presence of support to host
- Easy to add a new one-time connection
- To use the web app, the desktop app has to be installed - this means on vacation, I still have to bring my laptop
- There are regular instances when all machines are connected to the internet but TeamViewer says the user is offline
Core TeamViewer product is excellent, have struggled with Backup
- Remote desktop connection
- Access across known, internal networks
- Access across unknown, external networks
- TeamViewer backup has not lived up to expectations
- Backups fail to generate
- Intermittent difficulty accessing backups
- Frustrating support with TeamViewer backup
TeamViewer is the best tool for remote access
- It is quite useful for installing new software.
- It also allows us to access remote devices from both computers and mobile devices.
- There is adequate security on the connection to prevent access by anyone.
- It allows us to quickly change the password and generate it randomly without any delay.
- I will suggest adding a feature that can generate passwords randomly within a timeframe that is set by the user so that it is more secure.
- You can focus on increasing the speed at which files are transferred.
a simple way to connect to our customer and agents
- fast connection
- great quality
- ease of use
- the app si very slow at the start
- very expensive
- vocal chat is not perfect
Solid tooling
- Secure connection
- Ease of use
- Stable
- Requires knowledge to prevent security issues (leave session open/unattended)
- Users can sometimes be a bit overwhelmed
- Integration with teams
TeamViewer a great Remote Access Tool
The tool is quick to load and allows us to gain full access to the workstations as well as allowing us to manage many different servers with the application installed.
The tools security for logging in also is a plus.
- Quick Screen refresh with slow network connections
- Light app to install on workstations
- Easy to use tool
- Additional features to view applications installed on a workstation
The application can be used by any organization of any size which is great for a tool with this many features. Great Job Team Viewer!
Wonderful communication Software
- setting up meetings
- easy joining
- awesome support
- remote access can be used for malpractices such as hacking and ransomware.
- the black screen feature is a major disadvantage which gives the user access to black the screen of the remote-connected devices hiding background processes.
- requires strong bandwidth for video connection.
it is not appropriate in places when when it is used for malpractice this should be TeamViewer should do a bit more to avoid
also, it cannot be used in open offices where places where all we need a bit of background suppression
A fast and easy-to-use application for remote access
- Fast and easy-to-use
- File transfer is particularly helpful
- Good for collaboration as well
- Tends to get slow sometimes
- If both machines have a different screen resolution then the image gets distorted
1) Remote access for IT support
2) Collaboration
3) File transfer
Not very well suited for -
1) When you want to collaborate while working on software that are graphic intensive like photo/video editing, rendering, etc.
TeamViewer is a great tool for advanced technical support!
- Screen sharing.
- File transfer.
- Secure connections.
- Remote audio transmission.
- Slightly laggy sometimes.
- Don't like the lockout feature after multiple attempts.
- Audio sourcing is confusing sometimes.
My TeamViewer Journey.
- Connection to remote users over non consistent connection.
- The screen resolution is very good making it very clear to work on remote machines.
- It has a lot of interactive options when working remotely that enable you to work and interact with the client remotely.
- I like the window after you close a connection that enables you to write a brief summary of your closed connection.
- Am new to TeamViewer and still exploring the application.
