Are you using TeamViewer legally?

 

TeamViewer is a comprehensive, remote access, remote control and remote support solution that works with almost every desktop and mobile platform, including Windows, macOS, Android, and iOS. TeamViewer lets you remote in to computers or mobile devices located anywhere in the world and use them as though you were there. Plus, you can remotely connect to servers, commercial-grade machines, and IoT devices from anywhere, at any time through our secure global remote access network.

B.1.1.2 Free Version: TeamViewer may provide a free-of-charge version for selected Software products to Customer solely for the personal and non-commercial purposes (“Free Version”). The use for the exercise of Customer’s trade, business or profession, or the use for the purposes for which Customer directly or indirectly receives compensation (e. g. teamwork with colleagues, free support provided to third parties which have bought Customer’s own software or other product), shall not be qualified as personal.

Over the years I have had to advise many clients that they are running TeamViewer illegally. This is where they are using TeamViewer Free in a business/commercial environment. The free version is only for use by home users. Please ensure that you are in compliance with (obvious) license terms. Failing to do this means that you might end up at the wrong end of a meeting with these guys. Honestly - don't go there...

Donline is pleased to offer a remote IT support service based around the excellent TeamViewer remote control application. For this Donline has to pay a "not insubstantial" annual subscription to license this software.
