Team viewer any good?

11 replies
Hey warriors.. Having a great day?

I'am wondering to buy Team viewer for my coaching purposes as I see some bad ass features in their Trial version. have you tried it on coaching level or meetings with your partners? if so was the experience any good and if it has any drawbacks?

I need a push or pull before buying it. and also suggest the best plan to buy.

Thanks

    I have always used the free version and it works perfectly as is.

    I don't know what features a paid member gets, so I can't say if it will be right for your needs or not.. however if it's only for coaching, the free version should be more than enough.

    Hell, I would think skype screen sharing would be more than enough.

    That gives your prospect a chance to actually do what they are being told for themselves as you watch, which helps them learn even faster, as opposed to YOU doing it for them, while they struggle to keep up with what is happening.

      But its showing only 6 days remaining in my trial version. How to keep using trial version? I'am loving it but as seeing the deadline of the trial period, I'am forced to buy it otherwise its great to have it free even not with some features.

      And yes why I prefer it over Skype is because every time I need to explain or my student has to do it, we need to exchange screens one by one. whether in Team Viewer I can just see him doing it as well as interact at the same time if he's doing wrong.

    Use the free version and check it out, what you get in the free version is the same except you get more peeps in the paid.

    I have used all of them and have had a little problems with all, its just getting used to the setup is all.

    I have used team viewer to do work for clients and it worked great. Easy to install for the other person and they didn't have to install on their system it's just an exe.

      Yes it gives a two way Installation. Either you can Install the program files on your system or just open it as an portable exe file.

    I have never seen any trial version like that..

    During installation, the only thing I can think of, is that you chose "commercial use" instead of "personal/private use"

    I have always chose personal/private use, and I have never only had a trial.

      Yes I'd chosen the Commercial use one. but we will need it Commercially right? or the personal use can be enough?

    Your on a trial version but you will go to the free version when its over.
    I think the free version allows up to three people in a meeting if I can remember right.

      yes I can work with it as I only allow 101 coaching. I think I should better change it to private licence and use the Free version.

    @hustlin, na.. I think free version is only for non-commercial usage.

    I have NEVER had to go through any "trial period" before my free version kicked in.

    As I said, I'm not sure what the advantages of the paid version/commercial version is when compared to the personal use one, so I dunno.

    But I can say that I'm 99% sure it isn't just a trial version while waiting to turn in to a free one.

    He probably chose commercial use when installing. Only thing I can think of.
