GoTo MeetingTeamViewer
Considered Both Products
GoTo Meeting
Chose GoTo Meeting
I feel like GoTo Meeting is ranked up there with Zoom and TeamViewer for virtual meetings, but in the overall product coverage, GoTo Meeting wins the award.
Chose GoTo Meeting
GoTo Meeting is much better than TeamViewer. It is easier to use and share a desktop. It makes remote support of end-users computers quick and easy. GoTo Meeting has a leg up on ConnectWise Control because it has integrated voice conference lines. You do not have to go find …
Chose GoTo Meeting
GoToMeeting is a good solution to invite non team members to meetings compared to Zoom. They don't have to create an account and the dial in options are very clear in the meeting invite. TeamViewer is a better solution for controlling end users computers for hand on technical …
Chose GoTo Meeting
We used Cisco Webex Meeting with the spark boards and when you could get everything synced, it would work great. GoToMeeting was a lot more user-friendly, way more than Cisco Webex Meeting. Since we already had the built-in desktop share feature, this pushed TeamViewer out the …
Chose GoTo Meeting
For meetings, it stacks reasonably well, although pricey for larger firms.
Chose GoTo Meeting
GoTo Meeting is in the middle of the pack. The reason we utilized GoTo Meeting is because it was originally Jive. Jive was in our backyard, we knew the owner. When it was Jive, it worked great. We helped contribute to the jive applications, we used it for free for them and we …
Chose GoTo Meeting
Our cost for Zoom was lower than GoToMeeting. The free tier of Zoom for 40 minute meetings is sufficient for most of our meetings.

MS Teams was included as part of our M365 subscription and integrates with all our other Office apps.
Chose GoTo Meeting
GoTo Meeting is more secure than the listed similar products and allows for more engagement and collaboration. We currently pay for Zoom and have Google Meet through a bundled package through Google. Zoom was more utilized for situations where audio and video quality are the …
Chose GoTo Meeting
Functionality amongst all the standard video/chat conference collaboration tools is about the same with the exception of better integration of other companies' software applications in their portfolio. I ran into issues with buffering with users on low bandwidth or "hot spot" …
Chose GoTo Meeting
Needs to catch up and do a lot to meet the expectations. Other platforms especially Zoom has exceptional tools and features. Stability is the key which is highly doubtful. The one-touch dial also needs to be improved when joining from the phone. Audio stability features, …
Chose GoTo Meeting
GoTo Meeting is great in many ways and wins over the competition in that it offers great features and that using it is easy as well. In addition, the software is very stable and supports many participants.
Chose GoTo Meeting
[GoTo Meeting] is ideal for conferences and can accommodate up to 3,000 participants and the vendor nevertheless offers low-tiered plans for smaller meetings suited to remote work or online classes.
Chose GoTo Meeting
It offers all of the basic functionalities and is very user friendly. Pricing stacks up fair and could easily service a mid size company with nationwide locations.
Chose GoTo Meeting
Easier to use and lower bandwidth requirements. I like the scheduling features more than other softwares I've used in the past although I think there is room for improvement.

Chose GoTo Meeting
We have had chats with Zoom and have a few employees using Zoom to demo. Really we have found they are about even in quality and features. Both have good chrome extensions and are easy to use. I personally have used both Zoom and GoToMeeting while meeting with software …
TeamViewer
Chose TeamViewer
TeamViewer is much faster and had fewer connectivity issues as well as configuration issues as compared to GoToMeeting and LogMeIn. TeamViewer also has a free version that can be used for non-commercial personal use that makes it easily accessible. TeamViewer is competitively …
Chose TeamViewer
I feel TeamViewer is simpler to use and performs at a higher level. We experienced lag and clunky UI when we sampled GoToMeeting. The TeamViewer option provided the level of support that we were looking for. The simplicity to install on users' machines and customize our login …
Chose TeamViewer
GoToMeeting is better for demonstrations. TeamViewer is a great support tool to see what your end user is doing. TeamViewer can be used to access remote machines and servers, although remote desktop is more reliable for server management.

TeamViewer can be accessed for free and …
Chose TeamViewer
Teamviewer might not have all the features other products have but it does it's job so good it's not worth switching from. Remote control is the core and that's what they have done best when we have compared other products. Working with software suppliers has also given us a …
Chose TeamViewer
I have previously used the suite of GoTo products for the same functionality that TeamViewer has. While the GoTo family provides the ability to host meetings and webinars that TeamViewer does not, I found that TeamViewer was a much easier platform to work with.
Chose TeamViewer
TeamViewer is lightweight and the installation is easy compared to ConnectWise which requires an expert to install and maintain. ConnctWise requires about three servers to be set up and users to be trained to use it. TeamViewer has an easy GUI and is very intuitive, making it …
Chose TeamViewer
1) Ease of use
2) Intuitive design which has an elegance of its own
3) TeamViewer's ability to work across platforms is a huge positive - PC to PC, mobile to PC, PC to mobile, or mobile to mobile
Chose TeamViewer
There are other meeting, screen sharing, and collaboration software products that do well, but in my opinion, TeamViewer excels in the most important aspects of screen sharing or remote support software. It has the most high quality audio/video performance, it has many …
Chose TeamViewer
TeamViewer is much better than the above products, as it does a better job with support.
Chose TeamViewer
Previously, those who support the use of this type of tools to increase the efficiency of the processes present in much of our daily tasks, tried the use, in some cases very fleetingly, of softwares such as: Microsoft Office 365, the Chrome Remote destokp and the VNC Connect, …
Chose TeamViewer
TeamViewer was the best option for remote control and with the ability for participants to point on the screen during presentations. It was the fastest/smoothest experience for remote control, and allowed logging into the computer before logging in after a reboot. It was also …
Chose TeamViewer
TeamViewer is similar and works as well as the others.
Chose TeamViewer
I'm very comfortable with TeamViewer and I've used them for a long time. I moved from LogMeIn before and I moved to TeamViewer because of the ease of use that TeamViewer provided. The customer facing experience for TeamViewer was also a big factor as to why I chose TeamViewer …
Chose TeamViewer
I think it compares very well, teamviewer is used mostly because of its ease of use and quick setup. Also, the vendors seem to use it also and makes for a very affordable and quick solution.
Chose TeamViewer
Originally TeamViewer had great technology and a good price. What drew me to it was that it was cheaper than LogMeIn Rescue and you could purchase a perpetual license. It soon became clear that they broke functionality between older and new versions. If you plan on only …
Chose TeamViewer
TeamViewer's mobile app is powerful and consistently makes the connection to my remote desktop. In the past I found other solutions to be inconsistent in availability leaving me with an unexpected "surprise" when I was unable to connect. I find TeamViewer is able to provide …
Chose TeamViewer
We've looked into other similar products but prefer TeamViewer. The features and ease of use balances out the cost over the competitive products.
Chose TeamViewer
Teamviewer is easily available and has a trial version.
Chose TeamViewer
We've used a lot of solutions -- mostly the free basic versions of the following:
ZoomRoom, Join.Me, GoToMeeting, GoToMyPC, LogMeIn, GoogleHangouts (screenshare), and Skype.
Chose TeamViewer
Although I have used TeamViewer in my previous job, the reason I am using teamViewer now is because of my company's licensure agreement with WebEx Meetings. However in my past experience I think TeamViewer made some easy to use features for IDs and passwords with which an …
Chose TeamViewer
The remote control feature that TeamViewer provides is far better than any other product simply because of the fact that it is extremely simple to use. You can never hit any other button or click on any other options while using it. Things are very clearly indicated, this makes …
Chose TeamViewer
TeamViewer was more robust, professional and polished than the competition we checked out. We use TeamViewer for our remote meetings and to record quick toturials. We have been very pleased with its performance. Remote access is great and simple with Teamviewer. GoToConnect …
Chose TeamViewer
Most of TeamViewer's competitors (GoToMeeting, GoToAssist, WebEx, MyTrueCloud) are priced on a per-month basis. Some companies (like WebEx) also do not allow licenses to "float", they require that the license is tied to a specific user. This simply did not fit our use case. …

User Testimonials
GoTo MeetingTeamViewer
Likelihood to Recommend
Microsoft Teams has always given us issues if we run an extensive meeting with more than 30 participants. Often, HR would train many people at once, and call quality would degrade or crash. This provides a good alternative when Teams is not working correctly, but we must continue orientation or training. It is inappropriate for all meetings since we are embedded in the Microsoft ecosystem, and Teams integrates well with SharePoint.

Most suitable for large corporations who want to have real-time control of multiple devices in different countries. It is not suitable for scenarios where permissions for using the system need to be obtained from the user for every session if there is no support subscription in place.

  • Quick support is an nice feature to make it easy for the end user to download and use
  • Easy to connect using numbers
  • The connection is always good when connected to an end user
  • The tool is easy to use, the buttons are easy to understand what the use for it is

Cons
  • Lack of security updates (Not sure if they are taking care of but they should make users aware of it frequently)
  • Brand recognition improvement (Specifically in the US market where many customers still prefer Zoom)
  • Many prospects still consider GoTo as a legacy platform compared to Meet, Teams, Zoom. This is not a missing feature but GoTo team should really position themselves as innovative rather than pre-existing perceived notion of being legacy.

  • Now, it doesn’t work in fast network environments: sometimes, data is delayed during transfer.
  • There are a small number of ways that a user is allowed to change the interface on the device.
  • Some minor increases in difficulty with advanced functions of the application.

We used other software like goto meetings but found it best because of its user friendly interface and easy interfacing. It helped us in COVID and now we can say we are depending on it and love it. We recommend it to our friends company and they are also using it. It is very affordable and easy to integrate with system

As long as I continue to provide remote support for my clients, it's a no brainier. For what I pay out, I probably make it back tenfold in the ability to provide remote support from wherever and whenever. Not to mention the saved gas money for a fix that only takes 5 minutes but it takes you 20 minutes to get there. As my business continues to grow, and I support more and more clients, my need for TeamViewer will only grow.

Usability
The simplicity of GoToMeetings desktop, mobile, and web-based applications make it a very robust and user-friendly meeting solution. At times, it may be more complex than needed, but it is nice to have so many features that can be used if needed. Once installed, it is very easy to use and navigate.

Compared to other products I've used (ConnectWise Control), TeamViewer is harder to set up and get connected. It is especially difficult to set up "permanent" unattended remote access, where you want to be able to connect to and control a remote computer without having to exchange codes and passwords every time you connect.

When we have issues, they seem to respond quickly and do everything they can to help us. They have even tried to find other ways we could get more use out of their product, or improve the way we are currently using it. Overall, their support has been fairly good for us.

The support from the Teamviewer team has always been top notch. Any support ticket that we have submitted has been handled very quickly and with the best possible resolution. We find in most cases, contacting for a support ticket is not even necessary, as the knowledge base is more than adequate.

As expected without any problem! Alternate in-person training is another efficient way to learn how a product works. There are many third party supporters for TeamViewer courses available that can give additional ideas how to use TeamViewer for specific functions and features as we did require in respect of our usage.

I have never used the online training either. I have watched a few informational videos that were helpful when learning how to do a specific procedure within TeamViewer and get the most out of the software by utilizing one of the many features that are available with the software. Again, 5 if for neutral.

Installation and configuration of the TeamViewer does not pose a huge problem and we were able to install the software in our network within one week. Helping staff was organized in the form of training sessions to understand the different aspects that it offers and because of its rich graphical user interface, adoption was easy.

GoTo Meetings has no time limit for sessions with more than x attendees. GoTo Meetings provides an easy way to allow attendees to share their screens. GoTo Meeting does not require membership/license/registration attendees; they are not required to download the desktop application. They can attend from the web if they choose to do so.

In my position, I have also used AnyDesk because we frequently utilize various software for different tasks. However, we opted for TeamViewer because our team members are not technically inclined. They are experts in other areas. TeamViewer was the ideal choice for us since we needed a software program that even non-techies could use.
