Simple implementation, free version available, and effective monitoring
Pros and Cons
- "The solution is a very good tool for monitoring and for remote access, and anyone is able to use it because it is simple to use."
What is our primary use case?
We use TeamViewer for remote access and it can be used for meetings.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?
TeamViewer is stable and this is why many people use it.
How are customer service and support?
I have not used technical support.
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup for the personal version is easy. I do not have experience with the enterprise version. It most likely will be very easy too. You only need to set it up on your system and there's no need for integration. However, if you have to implement the enterprise version, I think you would need an integrator to be able to complete it.
What about the implementation team?
We did the implementation ourselves.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
There is a free version that has limitations, such as the time of the session with be terminated after a set timeframe. If you buy the license, it's a very good tool for monitoring and for remote access. There are a number of functions you can do with it. When you have virtual teams and they are across remote areas, it provides a means of collaboration. That's why it is very good.
There are many other options available, such as PCAnywhere. Many of the larger and multinational companies deploy these types of solutions.
The price of the license could be less expensive.
What other advice do I have?
We are not using the full version of the solution. Other companies use it for the management of all the application deployments. If my organization gets larger then we hopefully will have the full version. It is a good tool.
I recommend TeamViewer to a lot of people. Sometimes if I have to do a job for someone and it's remote, I ask the customer if they have TeamViewer or PCAnywhere. If they do not have one of them I ask them to download it and they will use the trial version. I then can help them with the problem they are facing. As time goes on, people will start to realize the fact that they need to make it official for them to earn a lot of revenue from it.
I rate TeamViewer a nine out of ten.

IT Support Team Leader at CEVA Logistics
High-performing and easy to set up
Pros and Cons
- "I don't know of any performance problems with TeamViewer - generally, it's a stable product."
- "TeamViewer is expensive, and you get a limited number of connections for your money."
What is our primary use case?
I use TeamViewer for remote support, connecting to PCs, and transferring files.
For how long have I used the solution?
I've been using this solution for about twenty years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
I don't know of any performance problems with TeamViewer - generally, it's a stable product.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
It's easy to scale, but the licensing restricts how many people you can add.
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup was easy, taking one minute at most.
What about the implementation team?
I used QuickSupport to install, which made it an easy process.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
TeamViewer is expensive, and you get a limited number of connections for your money. We've now switched to AnyDesk, which is free, because the price of TeamViewer was too high.
What other advice do I have?
I would rate this solution as nine out of ten - it would be a ten if it were less expensive.
Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

IT Supervisor at a financial services firm with 1-10 employees
Great for resolving issues remotely; very user friendly
Pros and Cons
- "TeamViewer is a step ahead of solutions like, for example, AnyDesk."
- "TeamViewer is a very good product to use."
- "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."
What is our primary use case?
I use TeamViewer for remote desktop support to resolve issues and queries. For example, when I, in Johannesburg, get a ticket from somebody in Cape Town, I will use TeamViewer to connect to their computer remotely.
What is most valuable?
I think TeamViewer's most valuable feature is that it is user friendly. Creating passwords is easy and so is security.
TeamViewer is a step ahead of solutions like, for example, AnyDesk. With AnyDesk, when you connect, if you didn't configure it to connect with your own password, you actually have to wait for somebody to accept your connection. With TeamViewer, you don't have to do that. As long as you've got your user ID as well as password, then you can just connect any time.
What needs improvement?
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 would also be great to be able to share a screen using TeamViewer like you would with Skype for Business.
For how long have I used the solution?
I started using TeamViewer in 2014, so I have been using it for almost seven years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
TeamViewer is a very good product to use. The cost is not that high and there is a free version you can test out. If you are still new in the business, then you can use the free version indefinitely. If you are happy with it, then obviously you can update.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
I would say it is easy to scale. At my company, I am the only one using it at the moment because I deal with the IT stuff. When I was working for an IT company, the whole department used TeamViewer to connect remotely to our client's machines.
How are customer service and support?
I'm currently using TeamViewer on a daily basis but I never had issues with TeamViewer. Since I'm a senior level IT professional, when there is a problem with TeamViewer in my company, my colleagues usually escalate it to me.
Also, we acquired TeamViewer from a third-party, so we do not have direct access to TeamViewer's technical support.
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup was simple for me because I am used to configuring much more complicated stuff. But, even someone who is not in IT can still use it.
What about the implementation team?
I deployed the solution myself in less than 30 minutes. However, how difficult a deployment is depends on how many PCs it has to be installed on. Obviously if it's 10, then it's going to take longer, but if it's one PC, then it can be done in less than 15 minutes.
It does require some maintenance when it comes to updates and making sure all your machines are running the same version.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
I think the price is reasonable. When a company develops software, they are creating a product. The purpose is to help people and also to make money. With this in mind, TeamViewer has a good price because you can still use it well without running into any issues.
You can get a trial version but you cannot use it for free forever. If you are using the free version, you will have some limitations.
What other advice do I have?
The advice that I can give to users looking into this product is, do not buy a license at first. Start with a free trial. However, you will need a license to access some advanced features.
