Also, security remains something that I classify as doubtful at best.
I actually had one site hacked into via Team Viewer, and it was a subscription site. All they tried to take were trailer filess. I was actually present at the site when the hacker logged in. He had also created a folder of what he wanted to take on the desktop. No idea how he was going to transfer that much content as there was no app to transfer large files on the computer. We installed Untangle Firewall (free) running on an old desktop on their internet modem and the hacker stopped having access... They also switched to Ultra Viewer when it came out.

Interesting discussion here...

I've been using TV for a few years and, aside from the cost (which I also consider way over the top), I've had few problems with it.

TV will not log into a computer that is a full version (or greater) higher than the one you're logging "from", but I've had no issues logging into anything lower, including those that are "free, personal use" installations [Razz]

The subscription versions are said to have access to additional servers, located in additional countries (including the US). Older versions are said to be stuck with the original servers in Germany. Perhaps that has something to do with speed & connection issues, but I'm guessing about that.

Beyond that, I don't have any major complaints about Team Viewer. Having started out with the various (free) iterations of VNC, the cost seems a bit on the outrageous side, but I have that folded into my overhead, from which I set my service rates, so I really don't lose sleep over it.
