Teamviewer makes your WFH transition considerably easier
Comments: Coming from using SCCM and the built-in Microsoft remote tools, Teamviewer has improved our workflow considerably, allowing our technicians to complete work on external devices as seemlessly as if they were at the physical controls.
Pros:
Teamviewer has enabled us to safely remotely access our fleet of machines and allow elevated actions only by our technicians. This has been a real help during the switchover to working from home.
Cons:
The initial setup in the admin center can be a little confusing, but works well once completed.

Review on TeamViewer Remote
Comments: It helped to encourage my team to work together, through projects and sharing of ideas. When I started at first, the connection was fast, everything was fine. I could work remotely from home with my computer. But after switched to the pro version, The connection breaks and its difficult to get it connected back. You cannot log in except you update it, and it can be frustrating.
Pros:
The application is easy to use and simple to learn. It has handled technical issues for me without the help of any physical person. It works with devices that are offline, you can put them on. It is very multitasking.
Cons:
It was over priced and expensive when I went for the subscription. When I connect remotely to a laptop, the screen goes blank. The connections sometimes goes off. It was not like this from the start, but over time it started having these issues which should be looked into.

Solve everything in easy way.
Pros:
This system is really easy to use and i have a really friendly interface & Installation and setup also simple and quick . Anyone can easily get and work on this . Mostly I'm really impressive about the system security because it use Two-Factor Authentication and specifically with encryption. This can be Use in any platform and performance is also really good and its high speed connection. In here we can fully control the device and at same time we can transfer the files easy. This is good for both business and personal use and its free for personal use with some operating systems and also its with reliable purchase plans.
Cons:
Mostly its high cost for the business plans such as beginner business. Main issue is hackers can easily attack the user system with this . Teamviewer is really depending on the internet, some times it will be a issue with the low internet access peoples, it need higher performance and it will slowdown the low end Computers.

Teamviewer day to do in IT
Comments:
Same as my Pro's and Cons.
I wouldnt stop using Team viewer, i prefer it over other remote support softwares for its ease of use and professional/secure features.
Pros:
Ease of use and setup time. I like the option to have unattended access setup on frequent remote servers that i need to access from my Laptop. Since i tend to move around to different locations for work. Remote access is critical for me
Cons:
I wouldnt really say its a deal breaker, but at first, the installation was a bit lack luster in what options to pick (unattended/restricted access). I had to reinstall the product a few times to get the correct version i wanted but apart from that, its all good. I have come across the black screen bug but i believe that may be a Server issue. But if its a known server issue, i think Teamviewer should add this on their FAQ.

Comments: I've used TeamViewer for over 15 years and it has always been very useful in my company. We've never wanted to use anything else.

Using team viewer for work
Comments:
I think TeamViewer is excellent software for what it proposes. I use it especially to remotely access other machines and it works excellently.
I can configure machines and applications remotely, as well as transfer files and retrieve files simply.
Pros:
TeamViewer is a useful and practical tool that allows you to access remote machines and work on them as if they were local machines. Sending files to a remote machine and copying files is also quite simple and practical.
Cons:
Something I didn't like is that they changed the old interface to a new one that I didn't really like. Finding the old features was a problem. They should have given the user the possibility to choose between one or more interfaces. But for new users I don't think this will be a problem. I also think that for common, non-commercial users the price should be a little lower.

One of the best remote viewing and troubleshooting programs.
Comments: Overall i have used this program for years and will do so until something changes. Over the years they have tried more and more to get money out of you trying to sell you on other features. I still only use the free version of it and i'm happy with that.
Pros:
I like that it is easy to direct someone to the website and they can download it with little problem. It is a simple install and from there its quick to fix the problem.
Cons:
I don't like that the install has this step asking if they want commercial or personal or neither. Just remove that and eliminate the confusion.

TeamViewer secure support for our video conferences
