TeamViewer

The German software company TeamViewer created this remote access and remote control application so that computers and other devices may be serviced remotely. Its original release date was 2005, and since then, it has steadily gained new features. Although TeamViewer is proprietary software, it is free for personal use and does not require registration. It has been downloaded to over two billion computers and phones. TeamViewer is the company's flagship product.

In 2005, Rossmanith GmbH launched the first version of TeamViewer, which was built on the VNC project at the time. The IT company preferred to execute services, such as software installation, remotely rather than making unneeded visits to its clients' locations. The innovation was so successful that it spawned a separate company, TeamViewer GmbH, which is now part of TeamViewer AG as TeamViewer Germany GmbH.

TeamViewer is compatible with many desktop operating systems, including Windows and Windows Server from Microsoft and macOS from Apple. Debian, Ubuntu, Red Hat, and Fedora Linux, among others, all have packages available for them. In addition, the Raspberry Pi has its own operating system, Raspberry Pi OS, a Debian derivative
