Find out in this report how the two Remote Access solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The installation is almost instant."
"This solution has allowed us to have a highly flexible remote access solution in DR/BC situations."
"I can do anything from a remote desktop as if I were sitting at my own PC."
"The technical support is good."
"The solution is very quick to set up."
"The document control is quite good."
"TeamViewer has been one of the easiest, right off the bat products, that we have employed at the college. We have had no issues. It's been one of the easiest solutions to pick up."
"The most valuable feature of TeamViewer is the remote access connection. Additionally, it is easy to use."
"It was worth the investment. You can do file transfers and video calls with it. You can do a lot of copy paste stuff. E.g., if I have a file and want to place it on somebody's machine, I can just copy it off of mine and paste it right on their machine. I don't have to put it in a Dropbox account and have them log into it to pull it off. I can do all that right through TeamViewer. When you're looking at the TeamViewer screen, you think you are working on your own machine."
"The solution is a very good tool for monitoring and for remote access. Anyone is able to use it, it is simple to use."
"The most valuable feature of TeamViewer is the ability to remote into another device."
"The solution is scalable."
"From my perspective, the most important is the login."
"Integration could be improved. I'd prefer if the solution could integrate with our support and report tools as well as our timesheet reporting."
"The pricing has tripled in a small amount of time and there is not three times better service."
"If the PC is hung then it requires a reboot."
"Considering the earlier versions of the product, I think TeamViewer used to slow down the systems."
"Sometimes, the app can be a little cumbersome when accessing certain aspects of the program."
"TeamViewer has a legacy and may not be using the latest UI trends."
"It's not the program itself that's an issue, but there is a need for some better documentation on how to use the web portal Management Console. That seems to be a bit lacking in directions, if you aren't paying attention and you don't know what to do. Better documentation would make it a little bit easier to set things up in different groups and share groups between people."
"It should have ability to display notes in the computer list."
"If were to I put myself in the seat of a small business owner, I would prefer TeamViewer to be more of a pay-once-and-own-it solution, rather than paying via a subscription model (although I am using the free version). Only annual subscriptions are available. It makes paying for it the first time seem a little daunting."
"I have noticed that when I access another person's computer, sometimes the tab is visible, and sometimes it is not, which can be difficult."
"It would be very helpful if they could provide a manual for the installation process and describe more of their features."
