TeamViewer is exceptionally well-suited for IT support scenarios where technicians need to remotely access and troubleshoot end-user devices, not to mention its support for various operating systems. Also, TeamViewer's unattended access feature makes it ideal for scheduled system maintenance tasks. On the other hand, while TeamViewer employs strong security measures, extremely sensitive environments may prefer dedicated solutions with more stringent security. TeamViewer is also not suited for areas with unstable or limited internet connectivity.

1. Training or Workshop Orientation on our eLearning System Software. It is a convenient tool to remotely access and where both parties are at the same page and it is the best tool to have for such purpose. Save time and money

2. On the technical support for all our Clients:-
a) Setting up devices connected to System, b) Helping to Solve System Bugs - easy access as I help clear any bugs on our System
c) Chats and Call on TeamViewer saves time and money. I have enjoyed using this tool and still do. I would not trade it for anything now.

TeamViewer is the best product I have used for supporting WFH and ROBO users. The tech gets more granular control of the end user computer than with competitor products. The support portal is quite good, although there is room for improvement when it comes to grouping computers.

It is well suited for almost all types of organizations whether it is small, medium or large scale. Even it is best remote access solution for individual also.
For large organization you can use TeamViewer AD connector to create and set up TeamViewer accounts easily via Active directory. This will help you to save your valuable time.

Since we started using TeamViewer, It's made our support process seamless and super efficient. We used TeamViewer not for IT support only but also we've put TeamViewer to good use for speedy and painless file transfers, especially when we're dealing with those massive gigabyte-sized files. It's been a game-changer, relieving us from the hassle of managing these hefty files. Last but not least, Session recording and monitoring is an additional feature provided by this tool; which is also greatly useful from a future perspective.

We have a customer that we support that the admin assistant will not allow unattended access, but they are always with the machine when they call in needing assistance. Its very well suited for logging into the client machine when they know you're coming in and you can actually kind of train the customer on how to help themselves. Because they can watch your every move. It can also be beneficial if the customer has trust issues or just simply wants to watch. On the flip side, they can see what you're doing, so if there are any trade secrets you don’t want exposed as you work within a customers database or proprietary program you use, you might not want to use this. Additionally, there is a bit of added pressure when the customer is watching you to make sure you don’t do stupid stuff like fumble your way through a directory or something.

TeamViewer has certainly saved many hour of labor. Being able to reach remote machines, without travel, is a huge plus. However, I don't think it is exclusive to TeamViewer's technology. There are other reputable remote software packages that would afford the same benefits.

When we train our new employees on how to detail and wash cars, during the training period we take the help of TeamViewer to connect with their computers and show them how to become professionals in the services which we provide and also this is more efficient than training them individually one by one which takes a lot of time and less efficient, now we can do the bulk training together at once but the main issue which we face during training is the physical interaction which highly lacks and make some of the parts of training are difficult to convey and make them understand.

If you use it for internal IT, this might be an ok solution
As an MSP where margins are always under pressure, I can't recommend. It's not as feature rich as other providers and I don't like the annual price increases. To make matters worse. There is a contract cancellation window. If you are too late with cancelling your subscription you are stuck for another year at a higher price

The ease of use, especially for users who need support. The Team Viewer Quick Support tool is very useful in this situation. Only the most essential details, such as the ID and password that the Administrator needs in order to choose themselves, are provided here. This software doesn't require installation and can be launched directly by the user. Additionally, it is very nice to have the option to brand the Quick Support Tool.

When your client or a team member is stuck due to issues in their computer, TeamViewer is best suited to get access to their computer and fix the problem remotely.
The software is less appropriate when you want to work dedicatedly on a remote computer. It is also not suitable for slow internet and old operating systems.

When we need to get control from other's systems, then we generally use this tool and this is a very nice tool to have control for the screen-sharing session. Overall we have a great experience with this tool. This tool resolves lots of business problems. Easy to use and smooth.

TeamViewer is well suited for people/businesses that do not solely provide remote support to clients. It's a great software for occasional use, but unfortunately it does not have the legs to be a full solution for businesses supporting clients remotely every day, 8 hours a day. Obviously something needs to be done to make it more reliable and robust. I would expect this type of performance for the free version, but the fact that the paid version is this awful is just embarrassing.

During corona pandemic many faculties were working from home.
They were facing difficulty in installation of softwares on there local machine.
With the use of TeamViewer We were able to get the remote access of the local machine and were able to install the softwares on their system.
Also were able to guide them.

TeamViewer is a really good, multi-platform supporting application that is really simple to use for first time users and also a portable application that can be installed within a couple of minutes.

Scenarios where TeamViewer can be used by bad actors to perform cyber attacks and breaches needs to be somehow prevented.

Great when working remote, having employees working remote and requiring assistance from IT

Great for giving admin approval for functions while remote or employee remote

Not great when trying to work with multiple people or multiple screens

When assisting a user with less technical experience, all I need to do is get the user to start Teamviewer and I can take over from there. I can describe what I'm doing or provide verbal assistance and watch as the user implements my instructions. It is far easier for me than either imagining what's on the user's screen or going to visit the user. It is far more successful for the other user than having to figure out how to describe what the user is seeing or waiting until I can visit.

As a free program, it works wonderfully to access remote computers. But for whatever reason, in my experience, when the company decides you are using it for professional support (even if all of your use is your own computers) you are finished and there is no way to get it changed.

The best scenario for me about using TeamViewer is for troubleshooting systems and software, so Helpdesk is the key for TeamViewer and I believe since many years ago Microsoft Remote Desktion has been completely replaced by TeamViewer.
I do not use Teamviewer as a platform for meetings because it does not support full functionalities on this issue.

TeamViewer provide remote support functions for users , who work from home and manage remote computers in small, medium, and large networks. TeamViewer gives you access to a remote computer, whether the user is in Office or home. Many people are using TeamViewer from last 17 years because you can easily view a remote computer from more than one location. In addition, this program is one of the oldest, fastest and most secure remote control programs that are available on the market today.

The software works well enough for a Small shop. Once you grow it becomes too cumbersome to manage. While the software does what it should it does not excel at anything. I think this software is good for a small subset of users less than 50 end users. Keep that in mind
