Find out what your peers are saying about TeamViewer, Microsoft, Citrix and others in Remote Access."The ability to have all the connection information in one location saves so much time from trying to manage the same information across different applications."
"Allows us to configure limited access to resources with the security-based role feature (which we use for trainees and new employees)."
"Being able to aggregate all connections (RDP, FTP, SSH, VPN, etc.) in the same interface and make each server readily available in the same way, which lets me focus on the problem regardless of where it is."
"It saves a lot of time for all of our IT staff from having to just use the RDP Windows client and reenter each server every time we access a different system."
"Setup and installation was simple."
"Being able to store my credentials makes connecting a breeze."
"Devolutions's team is constantly making improvements to their products. If you submit a feature request, they are usually quick to implement it."
"The interface is great to work with as it allows multiple connections in a tabbed interface. It also has the option to automatically start a VPN or an SSH tunnel, if required."
"TeamViewer is a step ahead of solutions like, for example, AnyDesk."
"It is fairly feature-rich and stable."
"The dashboards they have are good."
"I don't know of any performance problems with TeamViewer - generally, it's a stable product."
"The most valuable feature of TeamViewer is the remote access connection. Additionally, it is easy to use."
"The best feature is the remote access and being able to control another person's computer when you're showing them something, or teaching them how to do something during training, or fixing a problem they're having."
"I have been satisfied with TeamViewer overall."
"The solution is scalable."
"Maybe some clipboard functions could be added along with integration of different software."
"Sometimes the manual inventory of some entries hangs, and RDM must be closed via task manager."
"The filing system of connections is a little clunky, but is completely functional."
"On complex setups, I actually needed to reach out to support to get it working correctly."
"The only complaint I have heard is there are too many updates. Each time there is an update (the app prompts to upgrade), it can be time consuming, especially when sometimes there are multiple updates per week."
"If there was a way to streamline the process, it would make it nice."
"There are always bugs to squash, beyond that, it is really kind of difficult for new users to discover and use many of the features due to the bewildering array of choices and ways to do things."
"Sometimes when updating, the install window is on top of the prompt to close the application."
"This solution could be improved by offering more flexibility in terms of usage."
"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."
"Sometimes, the app can be a little cumbersome when accessing certain aspects of the program."
"TeamViewer could improve by having a cloud version. Having the solution on the system could cause some cyber security concerns with data."
"I have noticed that when I access another person's computer, sometimes the tab is visible, and sometimes it is not, which can be difficult."
"We have a consultant that helps us do the virtual aspects of TeamViewer."
"There is a paid version of this solution with more features available. However, they should provide more free features to the user, such as factor authentication."
"If they could figure out a little better solution for the iOS stuff other than just a screen share, even though it's an Apple thing, and Apple doesn't like to give up control of their devices. If they ever got to that point, and I could manipulate an iPad or iPhone, that would be awesome. Since we have a bunch of iPad users who are struggling with doing different things, it would be nice to be able to just jump on and actually show them, "Here, do this, this, and this." Similar to what we do with the laptops, e.g. for training."
