Overall Satisfaction with TeamViewer

Every organization needs a simple yet robust way to access remote computers and even servers and one of the best and easiest is TeamViewer. It is used in my organization to access over 20K devices and provide remote assistance to our users by our help desk. It allows our support team to remotely troubleshoot problems and understand issues reported by our users without necessitating a visit in person thus saving time and money while increasing our users satisfaction rate. Our support team uses it to access and manage our servers in the datacenter so they can keep the infrastructure operational without having to have a physical presence there.

Pros

  • Multi-Platform Remote access and control
  • Centralized device management with streamlined cloud interface
  • Low-Footprint client/agent that allows for automated connectivity

Cons

  • Not fond of the current subscription model. Prefer to buy and own licenses.
  • Controls and features are sometimes harder to locate in the remote interface
  • On some platforms performance could be optimized
  • TeamViewer has effected great savings for us due to not having to deploy technicians
  • By configuring devices with TeamViewer installed we save countless hours of support in just walking our clients through getting the remote desktop application working.
  • TeamViewer is also competitive in pricing compared to other systems
All platforms and products are similar and each have their strengths and weaknesses so it is hard to generalize given that everyone's needs are different, but TeamViewer has proven to us to be not only versatile, easy to deploy and have a small foot print but also very secure and that is critical in this day and age. Its cloud console also offers support for setting up monitors for web services and thus we can keep an eye on our server's availability and know when we have to remote in to troubleshoot.

The ability to organize and group remote accessible systems where the agent has been installed coupled with the ability to create customized applications containing the remote access agents that can be white label branded is very powerful. Links can be provided to clients that do not have the agent on their devices and they can quickly and easily install it. The areas where it struggles a bit is with the newer Mac operating systems given all the security barriers Apple has installed requiring the user to perform many complicated steps in order to allow access for TeamViewer, but that is not really a TeamViewer specific problem.
