Overall Satisfaction with TeamViewer

We use it to access out of band machines and one-off support requests for outside the company users. We also sometimes use it to access test machines in a pinch.
  • Easy end-user interaction.
  • Easy file transfers.
  • Very simple setup and installation.
  • Chat is easy to use.
  • RDP performance could be better. Very pixelated.
  • Somewhat difficult to instruct users on how to download and install the client from their website.
  • Needs improved startup times for end users so that they can see their PIN numbers more quickly.
  • It gives us the ability to save money by not having to spend time walking users through things.
I’ve used GoToAssist and in my experience GoToAssist is better for the end-user experience. Skype for Business is better for meetings but that is kind of out of scope for TeamViewer. VNC is best for inside the organization.
