Overall Satisfaction with TeamViewer

I own a small SMB IT company that remotes into almost all of my clients using current version 15. I either install Host mode, so I have access 24/7, or for smaller clients, I use the basic Teamviewer download. I started with Teamviewer back in 2007, version 3, and have, over the years, upgraded my version to 15, which works great for me & my clients.
  • Remote access.
  • Fast connections.
  • Secure connections.
  • Simple interface.
  • I use basic features with no issues.
  • Nothing comes to mind.
  • Allows me to save gas and time with remote access.
  • Can help clients out from home or out in field.
  • Allows for transfer of files & programs.
  • I can help multiple clients on several computers at same time.
The original investment probably took us roughly 25 hours to start making money from the app.
I have partnered with another company from time to time, and he uses it. I am not a big fan based on having to install their app on clients' computers and their lack of features or security.

Would you buy TeamViewer again?

It was very simple to create a company app and install it on clients' computers. The setup & configuration was simple once I knew what features to include.
I do use the two-factor feature.
I have it installed on a few clients' Servers, and it's nice to be able to remote in on the weekend and do updates when the office is closed. I also like the feature that allows me thru the web to connect and help a client out when in the field.
