Considered Both Products
PanTerra Networks
Chose PanTerra Networks
I compared between the vendors and found them affordable and reliable. Their onboarding process was rather lengthier but since then, we have hardly had issues.
Chose PanTerra Networks
We've used Net2Phone and Segra prior to using PanTerra Networks. PanTerra Networks has been our best overall system. For Net2Phone, call quality was an issue at times and it was not easy to update the system for holidays at the time of use as well as limited data analytics. …
Chose PanTerra Networks
I only used grasshopper with a smaller team so I’m not sure if it would scale. I did not select PanTerra Networks but have been using it for 4+ years. It does work, but I think it could be better.
Chose PanTerra Networks
Teams was a nightmare to use. Did it once and will not go back.
Chose PanTerra Networks
It is a simpler solution and a more cost-effective option but best suited for small teams who are comfortable with on-premise solutions. Call centers with large teams require a more elaborate set up in my opinion.
Chose PanTerra Networks
The capabilities of Streams far exceeded either of the other products we have used in recent years.
Chose PanTerra Networks
First thing would be cost, Ring Central has a lot of bells and whistles which is nice, but we didn't use many of them so we were paying for things that were not needed for our business. Second would be the customer service and account management. I think they got too big too …
Chose PanTerra Networks
We previously used Verizon for our business phones. we then had to seek additional services for additional features we were looking for. The need to use multiple companies made billing and customer support exhausting and cumbersome. Since switching to PanTerra Networks our …
Chose PanTerra Networks
PanTerra Networks is much less expensive than other solutions. Our small business does not need all the features that other products offer.
Chose PanTerra Networks
Far superior did a lot of research and talking to everyone at the companies above and price and product so much better with PanTerra Networks

Everybody has phones. They all work. PanTerra Networks makes it easier to evaluate, implement and SUPPORT.

Chose PanTerra Networks
Customers like the local Support
Chose PanTerra Networks
PanTerra Networks is viewed as more competitive, and close enough to win. Those other companies do offer more integrations off the shelve, and do have a more user friendly portal. Panterra does give the client a more personalized experience when it comes to the presentation, …
Chose PanTerra Networks
PanTerra Networks is much more seamless and integrated than Adtran products. The vonage products are very similiar to the Panterra telephony products. Panterra has a much better call & contact center application and better unified communications. The pricing for Panterra is …
Chose PanTerra Networks
We really had a lack of support from the sales department and the support system to the point that we felt the need to leave
Chose PanTerra Networks
The customer support on PanTerra Streams is significantly better than Vonage. Also, the overall cost of PanTerra Streams was better, in our experience, than Vonage.
Chose PanTerra Networks
I was not part of the decision making process to select PanTerra Streams, but since I have been brought on board we have found others that are easier to use and more cost effective than Panterra, so we are making a change.
TeamViewer

Chose TeamViewer
Seems more secure and cost-efficient experience, which is why our company chose to work with TeamViewer instead.

The main reason why we have chosen TeamViewer over others was its high end support system and robust technologies. along with some really good features in competitive pricing which was again a gamechanger.
The user interface is great and tracking things has been made so easy by …
Chose TeamViewer
It was cost friendly compared to them and it also provided us with a sleek and modern interface with no distruptions.
Also unlike some tools TeamViewer allows secure remote access without the need for complex vpn set up.
It was also very userfriendly and easier to setup and …
Chose TeamViewer
Back in the day TeamViewer was great, but the company changed ownership and, in my opinion, things have gone downhill.
Chose TeamViewer
TeamViewer has better feature as compared to other software they provide alot of amazing feature in one software like remote access video and audio conferencing and file sharing process with using all of these we are able to do our work more easily along with that they provide …
Chose TeamViewer
Basically we require only one tool for meeting as well as for remote connection so we prefer it as well as file transfer is also one of the requirements so we prefer to use this instead of taking different tools subscription
Chose TeamViewer
Screen sharing in Zoom is not very good, as we faced a screen blackout issue during remote control, but Team Viewer provides a better environment for remote control. It is easy to access other computers by using a key, and it provides many things during meetings, increasing …
Chose TeamViewer
I used AnyDesk before because it was fast and cheaper. I switched to TeamViewer because it has more features, like remote printing, and works better with different devices. TeamViewer also gives better support and tools for managing multiple clients.
Chose TeamViewer
First of all the overall experience of TeamViewer feels and looks user friendly more than AnyDesk. The secure connection of 256-bit AES encryption and RSA 2048-bit key exchange. With TeamViewer, experienced users have numerous advanced options to help employees effectively, …

Chose TeamViewer
I used it to get the files and remote access, but if required, meeting time, that feature is not there, so I chose TeamViewer.
Chose TeamViewer
I personally prefer TeamViewer because of the added features, i.e. remote reboot with auto reconnect. TeamViewer Host also provides unattended access if required.
Chose TeamViewer
TeamViewer is very well known for stability and strong performance (can lag on low-speed internet) whereas AnyDesk
Chose TeamViewer

For our purposes, each is roughly equivalent in features and usability. I do actually use all three of them and have used TeamViewer primarily when jointly supporting clients with other contractors.

User Testimonials
PanTerra NetworksTeamViewer
Likelihood to Recommend
One of the main draws of PanTerra Networks Streams is the unlimited calling, which was very enticing. We chose the platform over other models (per-call for example) because they simplified billing. While the video conferencing and messaging feel bare-bones or underdeveloped in comparison to other players in the market, the fact that the messaging is seamlessly integrated into the PBX makes it easy to use. The call routing systems are especially robust, which in the collections world is very important to be able to segment calls to different users.

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.

  • 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
  • Billing support is not easy to reach.
  • Being online and on app is a bit confusing. You have to set each to ring or not.
  • We would love if you could change the outbound caller ID faster than in settings. Like when you dial out.
Read full review
  • 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.

In all likelihood, we will remain Panterra customers for many years. VoIP phone and messaging is a rapidly expanding and evolving market, however, and its possible a better solution will come along, but for now, Panterra Streams offers a compelling solution combining leading features, great customer service, and affordable pricing.

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
PanTerra Networks needs to make the interface more user friendly and make it easier for the users. Like saving message templates or saving phone numbers for the fax directory.
Read full review
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.

The support team is fantastic, probably the best I have experienced with any company. If I have a question, I can quickly chat with support and they resolve the problem nearly immediately. I don't have to call a phone number and wait on the line for hours for a response. Overall, the support team is one of the main reasons we continue to utilize PanTerra Streams.

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.

The implementation was fast. Things were explained quite well on the onboarding call. All that was left to do was to map the extensions(they did this for us) and port over the numbers. The porting process went pretty smoothly! No complaints at all.

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.

Alternatives Considered
We've used Net2Phone and Segra prior to using PanTerra Networks. PanTerra Networks has been our best overall system. For Net2Phone, call quality was an issue at times and it was not easy to update the system for holidays at the time of use as well as limited data analytics. Segra had good call quality and ease of system but did not have good data analytics at the time of use. PanTerra Networks had all: Call quality, ease of customization and good data analytics.

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.

Return on Investment
  • Very reliable. We make hundreds of calls outbound and there has never been a connectivity issue or otherwise
  • We decreased our monthly expense for reliable service by several hundred dollars
  • The onboarding support was the best we've ever experienced. They were on the phone while we hooked up every phone, tested, and got it all set up with ease.
  • Any changes needed after onboarding were difficult to accomplish without a call to customer service. Some of those calls to customer service made things more confusing

It took about 3 months.
  • Customer Support of our business has become more interactive with customers, leading to faster resolution of their problems.
  • Remotely accessing devices in our office allows employees to stay productive while working from home.
  • TeamViewer helps us to collaborate with other firms for projects we're doing.
