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."With the integrated VPN providers you are able to link the VPN entry directly to the session or entire folders, so you no longer have to configure the VPN manually on the machine."
"The interface is great to work with as it allows multiple connections in a tabbed interface. It also has the option to automatically start a VPN or an SSH tunnel, if required."
"Makes me instantly more focused on resolving the issue rather than getting to the issue."
"Being able to store my credentials makes connecting a breeze."
"Being able to aggregate all connections (RDP, FTP, SSH, VPN, etc.) in the same interface and make each server readily available in the same way, which lets me focus on the problem regardless of where it is."
"Documentation per entry, good for device configs or important/special instructions."
""Inherited" function for credentials - Configure the desired credential at one (top) location, and use the Inherited function on all sub-connections that should use this credential."
"RDM has enabled me to do most of my work in one place. This helps me be able to have an RDP session open to a server in one tab and an SSH session open to a VMware host in another."
"It is easy to use and has a pretty good UI."
"TeamViewer is fast and easy to manipulate."
"We also use it a lot for remote site assistance. We've set up our internal authentication for unattended access to our remote sites. That makes it very easy and convenient to remotely connect with our users and our client machines whenever we need to. It's set as a direct, secure connection. As long as the station has internet access, we can see it and it makes remote support very simple."
"The most valuable feature of TeamViewer is the remote access connection. Additionally, it is easy to use."
"The most valuable feature of TeamViewer is its ease of use."
"TeamViewer is a step ahead of solutions like, for example, AnyDesk."
"The quality of the call and the quality of the sharing have been excellent."
"The best feature is the remote access and being able to control another person's computer when you're showing them something, or teaching them how to do something during training, or fixing a problem they're having."
"If there was a way to streamline the process, it would make it nice."
"Sometimes the manual inventory of some entries hangs, and RDM must be closed via task manager."
"The only complaint I have heard is there are too many updates. Each time there is an update (the app prompts to upgrade), it can be time consuming, especially when sometimes there are multiple updates per week."
"Maybe some clipboard functions could be added along with integration of different software."
"The filing system of connections is a little clunky, but is completely functional."
"The RDM client (.NET issue, actually) can stall or lock up while it clears communication threads to the server."
"There are always bugs to squash, beyond that, it is really kind of difficult for new users to discover and use many of the features due to the bewildering array of choices and ways to do things."
"Security roles could be improved, especially by enabling renaming of a role."
"I would like it if the trial version of TeamViewer allowed you to have a connection for much longer."
"TeamViewer is expensive, and you get a limited number of connections for your money."
"I'm not sure if they provide good quality audio alongside screensharing."
"A feature that they could add is chat with sound to talk."
"Some of the additional features, like the meeting stuff, is making it too cluttered."
"The stability of TeamViewer is good, but it could be better."
"We have a consultant that helps us do the virtual aspects of TeamViewer."
"One thing I have noticed is that TeamViewer does not work so well when the machine you are trying to connect to remotely is not running the same version as your machine."
