"Our computers are spread amongst six physical locations. TeamViewer reduces the need to travel to those offices to help staff."
"The product is quite stable. The performance is good."
"TeamViewer is a scalable solution."
"You have no ability to reserve a total number of licenses. The VPN user licenses are assigned per gateway, and if you enable MEP function is not so easy to size the gateway licenses."
"They need to increase their timeout. Right now, it will fail after ten seconds, however, it shouldn't fail until after 20. If you don't get on your phone right away and check on your authentications, it will kick you out."
"Compliance Check on Check Point should be improved by having more configurable conditions to support multi-platforms and adding more granularity."

"The cost of maintenance is high compared to most products in the market."

"Connection of devices from various locations is efficient though there are a few challenges when there is a network failure."
"It would be good to have Remote Access VPN solutions for Check Point edge services."
"Every now and then you'll get a silent crash and you relaunch the application. But it happens no more than with anything else in the Windows environment."
"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."
"The performance could always be better."
"The product can sometimes crash."
"It would be very helpful if they could provide a manual for the installation process and describe more of their features."
"The solution could be improved by enhancing the use of the mobile version to be used on phones."
"You can't configure multiple, unattended control passwords on the Mac. On the Mac, there's only one. On Windows, there are multiple unattended control passwords. I have people in different departments. My infrastructure people need to control a server and my developers may need to go into that same server. But I don't want them to have the same password... on the Mac, it can be done but it's extremely clunky and problematic."
"TeamViewer could be more secure."
