We performed a comparison between LogMeIn Pro and TeamViewer based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Remote Access solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."It's even simple to remotely add a computer to our group. We can send a link to that computer and they just follow the prompts on the screen and they are ready to go - we can access it. It's very user-friendly."
"The remote services feature is definitely the most valuable, along with the capability to print remotely."
"It must have been straightforward. My IT person set it up for me. It is a friendly program."
"If I could give it an 11 out of 10 I would, but I definitely give it a 10. It saves me time, it saves me headaches, it saves me a lot of problems, and I'm able to fix things quickly and move on. I can get in and out of the computer without anyone really even knowing that I fixed something."
"This is a very reliable product and I've never had it crash."
"I can use it for training, which I have done. As a person sits in front of the computer they can watch what I do, or I can watch what they do."
"The biggest thing is the flexibility, you can use it as long as you can get an internet connection. You can use it pretty much anywhere you're at. It just makes it a lot easier. We are a small staff, and if nobody is in the office, LogMeIn gives us secure access to get in there."
"The remote connection is the most valuable, but we also use it for file transfer, that would be probably the second most valuable. The remote connection is a major time saver, it saves us from having to drive to each location."
"The solution is a very good tool for monitoring and for remote access. Anyone is able to use it, it is simple to use."
"With an image, you can see immediately what's going on. You can run some tests. Without the solution, you need to do everything by telephone. It's not even thinkable."
"The most valuable features of TeamViewer are the ability for administrators to lock the remote systems, simple connections, and easy login access."
"It is quite simple to set up."
"The most valuable feature has been the ability to give control to others for support purposes."
"TeamViewer is fast and easy to manipulate."
"The TeamViewer system has some built-in security. The TeamViewer client connects to the TeamViewer host securely. Only a certain number of authorized users on our side have access to the system. Even within that, an individual endpoint can be assigned to a group, where not everybody has access but, rather, just one or two people who are part of a support team might have access to that particular device. So TeamViewer has given us tools to be able to segregate who has access to different things."
"It's a user-friendly product."
"It's never cheap enough. If we got it for free, that would be perfect. But I know it's not and won't be free. It's always going to be too expensive for me because we're a small company."
"Everything has to be done over the web, via email, or something like that. You can't talk to a human being. That bothers me a lot."
"The user interface needs improvement. Mostly, it's pretty intuitive for what I need to do, but the extra elements to it seem very complex, so I don't really try to even use those. For example, document sharing, file stuff. I can do the log-in part, but the additional features are kind of complex."
"The high pricing of the product is its only shortcoming that needs improvement."
"Maybe they can come up with a plan if you only use it for login and, occasionally, printing. Maybe you can charge what you used to charge and then if we want to use it for files or things that are more sophisticated, charge a little more."
"As far as the usability of it, I'd like to see if printing could be enabled in the basic version or the medium version. Some of the remote printing isn't available unless you go to the premium versions, and that's disappointing."
"With Windows 10 we've had some issues with it crashing, and certain antivirus products cause it to fail. For the most part it's stable, but we do have an occasional crash mainly related to new operating systems. The new Microsoft Server and the new Windows operating systems sometimes have issues with it. But for the most part, in anything under, say, Windows 7, Windows 8, those seem to be pretty stable, and with the Microsoft Server 2012 and below, it's all stable. And I don't necessarily think it's LogMeIn. I think it may be Microsoft, to be honest with you."
"I would enhance the product, so if I had two screens in front of me, it could connect to two computers simultaneously with the program. For example, if I had a computer at location A and a computer at location B and I am sitting at location C, it might be nice for me to be able to be connected to all three of those computers and move data between those three during one session. "
"We'd like to be able to work from mobile to desktop and vice versa. We'd like more mobility."
"TeamViewer can improve connectivity. I had some problems connecting to my clients and now I use AnyDesk."
"They could give more information about using certain kinds of applications for secure transactions, such as secure file transfers."
"I'm not sure if they provide good quality audio alongside screensharing."
"I don’t see any areas where improvement is needed."
"We have a consultant that helps us do the virtual aspects of TeamViewer."
"Sometimes we'll have a device in the field, and I'll click on remote control and it says "Can't authenticate." I'll double click in a different part of the TeamViewer interface and it'll say "Can't authenticate." Then I'll do it a third time and it connects. It's possible that it's just bad luck. It's also very possible that it's some bug within TeamViewer..."
"I can use up to three computers, but sometimes I have four. So, it would be nice to have at least four computers."
