TeamViewer 8 Review

TeamViewer is a Web conferencing solution that can be used for scheduled and ad-hoc online meetings.

With the new version 8, the moderator can plan web meetings and invite participants in advance using the integrated scheduling functionality in Outlook. In addition, all essential functions can be easily accessed in the locally installed web console by the moderator while running the web meeting.

Moreover, users can transfer their webcam images during the meeting; unfortunately, the picture quality is not HD. Beyond the missing HD quality we noticed performance issues with VoIP while conducting web conferences.

Bottom line: TeamViewer 8 is suitable for planned and ad-hoc web meetings.
