Remote access has cut critical issue resolution time and supports faster production troubleshooting
Perhaps on the UI side of TeamViewer because we are connecting to different remote desktop connections or remote server connections. Whenever we are working on one of the production issues and we open multiple connections, it is very hectic or confusing to jump from one server to another server. Perhaps on the UI side, if they can improve something related to the view sessions or which session is connected to which remote server, that would be helpful. Perhaps something related to the authentication because it should have a proper authentication mechanism. Every developer should not access TeamViewer or the remote desktop by using TeamViewer. We always have a proper authentication or multifactor authentication mechanism in place, so only those on on-call support or P1 support at that time can access the remote server, but not anyone else. I chose nine out of 10 because sometimes we face the session timeout issue. Suppose during the production support, we connect to one of the remote servers, and if it is idle for approximately 10 or 15 minutes, the session timeout happens. We have to follow the same authentication mechanism to connect to the remote server again. During the session timeout, it delays our process or the troubleshooting steps, which is the reason I have given nine out of 10 instead of 10.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"ReadyTalk helped my organization deliver high-quality training webinars to small business owners around the country."
"Customer Service: Excellent. Have been able to help me determine when to use the operator assisted service and even demo-ed this experience for me in order to make more informed decision."
"Chairperson controls are pretty user-friendly."
"ReadyTalk is a very user friendly tool."
"Within the first 6 months of using ReadyTalk, I have saved over $100K in comparison to using other technologies."
"We host 4 webinars a month using Share tools and have reached on some occasions more than 500 participants just by one invitation being shared through social media."
"They have a great deployment team."
"Customer Service is the best."
"It's feature-rich and easy to use."
"The most valuable feature of TeamViewer is user-friendliness."
"In the years I have used TeamViewer, everything that I missed was already added."
"Go ahead, it’s the best of all the remote access software products."
"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."
"From a cost perspective, it's a great buy."
"I would happily recommend this product for both personal and commercial reasons because of its price and also because of its ease of use."
"The most valuable feature has been the ability to give control to others for support purposes."
 

Cons

"You have to download a spreadsheet three times post-meeting if you want surveys, registration, attendance. Kind of tedious."
"The aesthetics are not great."
"Supporting PPT animations and direct upload of recordings to YouTube would be great."
"A few minor issues along the way."
"I would love to see a lobby that attendees can wait in prior to starting the conference."
"Would love to have a calendar (much like Outlook offers) that included scheduled appointments."
"We'd like the joining process for presenters to be more seamless (and they are working on that)."
"Prices can always be dropped but overall these rates are competitive with other teleconferencing systems."
"The solution could include more AI (Artificial Intelligence)."
"Full integration of computer's user account system. Be able to login using the local computer's credentials rather than setting up a unique Teamviewer account/password."
"Support for mobile devices from Linux has been missing since the Native client was rolled out. This was a nice option, especially when trying to walk somebody who was struggling to understand something on their phone."
"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."
"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."
"TeamViewer Business can improve in terms of price and the complexity of licensing, which is a drawback, especially for smaller teams or casual users due to frequent license changes and forced upgrades."
"Wish it would support multiple support persons at the same time to assist a client for situations that need team collaboration."
"TeamViewer could work on performance latency in slower internet connections by optimizing screen refresh rates during remote sessions, especially when transferring large files or using graphics-heavy applications."
