[Utility] Team Viewer for remote desktop Sharing/Access support

Have you ever thought of accessing your friend's computer connected to internet & located in a different place (for example in a different country) and work on it as if you are accessing your local network PC as in remote desktop connection(mstsc) ? Here is an exclusive software utility just for the same and more !!! Let me introduce you Team Viewer (one of the best available tool in this arena).

Team Viewer
TeamViewer is a software package for remote control, desktop sharing and file transfer that works behind firewalls & NAT proxy. Just see the user interface of Team Viewer.


You can download it from here.

License
The personal-use or non-commercial use version is provided for free, while the business editions start at $249. The non-commercial use version of the software has limited features compared to the commercial version, and it is not licensed for use in a commercial environment. Extras which are provided additionally in the licensed version are the customization of the client module (QuickSupport) and the TV Manager, a database AddOn tool which allows the session logging for billing purposes. Below sections are based on the non-commercial use version.

Major Features
Following are the major features available in Team Viewer,
Remote Support
With this we can control our partner's computer. We can view the partner's machine, access his cursor and work on that machine.
Presentation
With this we can present our desktop to our partner.
File transfer
With this we can send/receive files to/from your partner
VPN
With this we can establish a Virtual Private Network connection with your partner's computer.

How to use?
Your and your partner's computer should have Team Viewer installed in their machine. For accessing your partner's remote computer,
1. Run the Team Viewer in both computers.
2. Enter the partner's ID in the ID box (Get the ID and Password that will be shown on starting Team Viewer from your partner).
3. Choose the option/feature you want to activate and press Connect to Partner button.
4. Now it will ask for the partner's Password, enter it and press Log On button.

After all with Team Viewer cross-platform work is possible between Windows and Macintosh systems !
