Overall Satisfaction with TeamViewer

It is quite powerful and a good alternative in terms of remote management. Pricing for small-scale companies can be expensive, but it also meets what is expected of it. You can manage your work from your phone, tablet and desktop computer. As a suggestion, in the long run, it is inevitable that clients will have connection problems due to the low version. It will be better if they fix this.
TeamViewer is primarily used in our organization. The #1 use case is that it makes it easy to provide remote support. We use it to connect to employees' computers and solve problems. In some cases, we also hold one-to-one meetings via TeamViewer. We prefer TeamViewer both to connect to a remote computer and to talk about a common topic once related. Finally, we use it to provide maintenance connectivity to embedded devices such as tablets and mini PCs. In all these scenarios, it allows us to solve problems remotely without the need to access the device physically.
  • 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.
  • Staff reduced the cost. The person using the device may not have technical knowledge. However, there may not be IT technicians in every location. It is more efficient to provide remote support to these points.
  • Provides management support at a single point

It will solve your problem in many scenarios where you can provide remote support. If you do not need to physically reach the devices, TeamViewer will be enough for you. Thanks to the feature called Pilot, you can offer step-by-step solution suggestions in augmented reality experience. For example, you are not on the air but you know that the device can be intervened by following certain steps. At this point, you can create step-by-step instructions with the pilot feature.
