Comment summary: Users commend TeamViewer's ease of use and remote access capabilities, particularly for non-tech-savvy individuals. However, pricing and licensing issues, especially the frequent suspicion of 'commercial use' even for personal users, lead to dissatisfaction. Many recommend alternatives like AnyDesk due to TeamViewer's costly subscription model and restrictive policies. Despite these drawbacks, the software remains popular for its functionality, though it has lost some market share to competitors.

I have it installed on just about every device that I can have it installed in. I would wish for this to have support for Xbox but I know that's a long shot. I use this even on my phone and it works great. When I am away but still need to do something in my home computer, I can use this to remote in and accomplish what I have to do. I have even done extensive video editing with Adobe Suite through my phone using this software. I can not recommend this enough.

It was really good until it was turned into an unusable mess. First, you'll get "Commercial use suspected" nag screens all the time, then it would outright stop working, timing out each of your sessions about a minute in and not letting you reconnect for 10 minutes.

They made userbase. And once they've become monopolists they started heavily exploiting their position. and they users. But nothing is irreplaceable. And they quickly faced their reality.

When you pay for this app, its locked to a major version. Then they update the major version every 6 months. So you are effectively only buying a 6 month subscription not a life time membership.

Bad. Enshitification. There are lots of alternatives

Used to be a good piece of software I used many years but now it has many issues:

  • The new UI is just horrible, unclear and hard to figure

  • Forced registration if you want to connect someone. You don't need to register if someone else is connecting to your PC but Teamviewer is promoting registration so invasively that my grandmother in another town couldn't figure out anymore how to use the software without registration

  • Commercial use suspected nags and disconnecting my connections randomly due to that. I have NEVER used this commercially. Only to occasionally help friends and relatives

Teamviewer has gotten arrogant and unfriendly, that's why they are treating their users so badly. I suggest switching to other pieces of software. Luckily we have alternatives.

Teamviewer used to be really good till they updated to their latest version, they gave us a horrible new interface and took away features like the file transfer queue. if you constantly transfer files using this in the past I suggest you look elsewhere

What is TeamViewer?

TeamViewer lets you establish a connection to any PC or server within just a few seconds. You can remote control the PC of your partner as if you were sitting right in front of it.

New features such as VoIP, webcam and application selection will give you an even better, easier and faster desktop sharing experience.

  • TeamViewer enables you to do what you want without any hassle and without any worries. Private data, private conversations, and private meetings stay that way.
  • Support, assist, interact, and collaborate with people. Exchange information. Access and use technology. One tool makes it possible to work as if you were all in the same room without travel time and expenses.
  • Solve issues remotely or bring customers and colleagues together without complex steps or onerous prep time.
