Has anybody used Teamviewer or similar application?

Question

I have been struggling with a Extreme Summit x440 and after confirming with the TAC, we decided that it needs a software upgrade.

Problem is lm a Cisco guy. So l called them and we used a Teamviewer app. The Extreme TAC guy did everything remotely whilst l was drinking tea and watching his mouse clicks on my laptop

Answer 1

I use it a lot for remote support though I prefer 'join.me' for when dealing with people not so technical. Its very light and quick to install.

Chris, do you to install anything to use join.me now? It was a while back l used it and everything was in the browser. Jus curious of the changes.

Yes you do install something though its a very small program which now allows you full screen experience of a remote desktop.

So its a change for the better then.

Answer 2

I use team-viewer on my network....and its a joy to work since i now don't have to leave my comfy corner...

Answer 3

I have used Teamviewer for a while, the file transfer function is great, only had issues with remote control function. it was a bit heavy to use. but once I switched to a faster network it proved to be a very helpful tool
