Begaya Morris - PeerSpot reviewer
Lead Software Engineer at BD
Reliable remote access has improved secure collaboration and streamlined daily approvals
The best features TeamViewer Business offers in my opinion are collaboration, templates, a high level of security, and session recording. Collaboration allows me to collaborate remotely with my team members. Besides reconnecting automatically, it provides a high level of security, protecting from cyber attacks and aids in providing assurance in regulated environments through two-factor authentication and end-to-end encryption features. It also allows recording live sessions, which can be replayed as needed for future reference. TeamViewer Business has positively impacted my organization as collaboration has enhanced, especially remote collaboration by 60 to 70 percent. I have been able to collaborate with clients and other team members seamlessly. Enhanced workflow efficiency includes faster approvals and a lowered risk of data loss, misuse, and leak through robust features like two-factor authentication and end-to-end encryption. It also facilitates compliance using documentation and auditing through recordings and logs.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"One of the improvements they made was a LogMeIn Central client - that was a couple years ago - and that has been great. You no longer have to use their web interface. There's actually a client that you can install, which lists all of the machines and servers that you can access. That works really well."
"It’s enabled me to remotely do updates to servers and workstations in off-hours – without needing to travel into the office. Makes my life much easier."
"All in all, the ROI was great as it saved me a lot of time - And time is money!"
"It saves us drive time, we don't have to go to clients, we can just use remote access."
"​The initial setup was pretty straightforward."
"The ability to remotely access machines with no user intervention required at the remote terminal. Other software we used needed someone to click a link and do a download for me to provide support. Now, with LogMeIn Central, I can get in and fix things while they are away from their desks."
"No issues with stability. It has worked on every platform I’ve tried it on, and not interfered with anything."
"I like the options for multiple displays. The unattended access is very useful, but it can also be misused. So, it is something you have to be careful with."
"I have been satisfied with TeamViewer overall."
"It has been useful and it has increased our productivity by some 400 percent."
"The real-time access has been excellent."
"TeamViewer is fast and easy to manipulate."
"The document control is quite good."
"From a cost perspective, it's a great buy."
"The pilot feature is what stands out the most; I love the ability to use the pilot feature for remote inspections, and the augmented portion of the software comes in handy when I have to assist my inspectors as they use the app in the field and show me what they're seeing through their phones."
"The technical support team assists with TeamViewer and performs repairs and installations remotely."
 

Cons

"They should provide intermediate device limit options for the users."
"I have had issues where LogMeIn has not been useful, then we have not been able to work that day. This happens probably two or three times a year."
"I do not like the antivirus."
"Sometimes it just fails to load."
"Compared to other products, I feel that their biggest weakness has been customer service. They are very nice, but things take forever to resolve. It has been a major issue there. Otherwise, we're happy. We haven't moved away from them because we haven't found anybody with comparable pricing for our business model."
"The update issues are an absolute pain. It says it is updating things, but the updates do not go through, and you try your hardest to get the updates to go through and they don't. You go to the PC, but there is no update there, then you go back and it says there are updates."
"Compared to other products, I feel that their biggest weakness has been customer service. They are very nice, but things take forever to resolve."
"Do not use the technical support."
"The product can sometimes crash."
"There have been a few times when TeamViewer has been down globally, so that’s definitely an issue for consideration."
"One thing that would really help with TeamViewer Business is if they were able to provide an easier way to deploy TeamViewer Business on all devices using group policy, as the current solution is quite clunky and very technical to set up; I have struggled and spent many days trying to get TeamViewer Business pushed out via group policy, and it has never worked as we would prefer, so we end up doing it manually, which is a drain on resources."
"The connection and reconnection sometimes lag and can cause problems."
"The file transfer functionality crashes sometimes."
"In the past, use in wireless environments caused buffering due to limited bandwidth."
"We access the solution through a VPN, which improves our security. However, earlier this year, around the beginning of March, a CVE in the TeamViewer client allowed remote connections to other network systems, which was concerning. You could have unintentionally gained admin rights if you didn't update TeamViewer promptly. It's crucial to always keep it updated to prevent such issues. The tool should consider implementing two-factor authentication to improve such security holes. It should also integrate good security updates, which should be implemented automatically."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is a little pricey. I have more than five seats, so I pay a $1000/year."
"It used to be a lot cheaper but then the price shot up (doubled over the span of two years), but it's hard to switch, and most competing products are similarly priced anyway."
"The price needs improvement. It is ridiculously expensive now, and no features have really changed."
"The only thing I found is that they've gotten very, very expensive over the years. I started out with about about 100 users on it. Two years ago it was about $600 for 100 users. Now, it's that price for 25 users."
"Pricing is a little on the expensive side, compared to what TeamViewer has offered."
"It's probably worth the value, but the price increases over the last five years are getting harder to justify."
"Coming from where it was free, it's getting to be expensive."
"We are an educational institution, so anything to make it cheaper would be better because we don’t grow money on trees."
"We have a corporate license. The maximum amount number of users changes based on the amount you pay. E.g., with our license, there is a maximum amount of users who can use the solution at the same time (10 users)."
"The cost of the licenses depends on how you buy them. They just had a buy one get one free deal going, and they do that every once in a while. Where you buy one license, and they will give you the second one free, or you can try to get discounts. Most of our licenses that we have we tried to do something like that just to save some money."
"We are using the free version of TeamViewer."
"TeamViewer was willing to give us a one-year package. Whereas, a lot of the other companies that we explored were paid by the month or quarter. It's just easier for our finance people at the college if we can make a one-time yearly payment."
"The solution's pricing is reasonable."
"It has probably saved us several thousands of dollars because we have quick access anywhere. We don't have to worry about finding people onsite or arranging conference calls. We also save time and money with it because we don't have to send somebody onsite to troubleshoot."
"I used the free version of TeamViewer."
"We use the free version of TeamViewer."
