Find out what your peers are saying about Zoom Video Communications, Cisco, TeamViewer and others in Virtual Meetings."I can view the status and availability of colleagues or team members, which makes it easy to approach them when they are available."
"It is a scalable product."
"The most valuable features of TeamViewer are the ease of connecting to remote computers. I do not need a lot of information about their computers to connect, a nontechnical person can give me the information needed for me to connect. Additionally, the solution does not gather other system information about the host or client's systems as other solutions might, such as AnyDesk."
"TeamViewer is a step ahead of solutions like, for example, AnyDesk."
"It's pretty easy to use. Just key in an ID and password and connect. For meetings, just enter the meeting ID and connect."
"The most valuable feature of TeamViewer is its ease of use."
"The product is easy to install."
"From my perspective, the most important is the login."
"I am satisfied with TeamViewer, and its performance."
"The webinar should be integrated into Sametime for a larger number of participants."
"I'm not sure if they provide good quality audio alongside screensharing."
"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 pretty limited on the options they have."
"If were to I put myself in the seat of a small business owner, I would prefer TeamViewer to be more of a pay-once-and-own-it solution, rather than paying via a subscription model (although I am using the free version). Only annual subscriptions are available. It makes paying for it the first time seem a little daunting."
"They should release features such as Augmented Reality into both plain and standard versions of TeamViewer."
"It becomes complicated to switch from one monitor to another for different windows."
"Some of the additional features, like the meeting stuff, is making it too cluttered."
"In the next release, I would prefer to have a voice integration and collaboration feature to support multiple teams simultaneously."
