    Has all the features of Teamviewer, but is priced reasonably for commercial use. Hopefully they will keep the pricing that way, because any higher and we will ditch them too. Loved Teamviewer but it was outrageously priced.

    For developers, screen sharing shouldn’t be optimized for low bandwidth or presenting some slides. It should be high definition, that you still can read the tiny font of your colleague. No more, “wait a minute, the stream isn’t updating”.

    Zoho Assist vs TeamViewer Comments

    I love the fact that it uses HTML 5, which means that it can be used via just about any web browser. I also appreciate the fact that the free version doesn't nag you. I did spring for a subscription because I like the advanced computer management features. Oh, did I mention that it's much more affordable than TeamViewer too?
