TeamViewer add-ons are functional extensions to the existing license models. They specifically expand the basic features to include additional, useful areas of application. Currently, TeamViewer offers five add-ons: Mobile Device Management, Assist AR Lite, Asset Management, Endpoint Protection, and Device Monitoring. Each module fulfills a clearly defined task within IT administration. But what exactly do they do, and when does it make sense to use them?<\/p>\n
Mobile Device Management is an add-on for the centralized management of business smartphones and tablets in heterogeneous IT environments with different device types and operating systems. It extends the TeamViewer platform with cross-device management functions for mobile devices\u2014regardless of location, operating system, or network connection.<\/p>\n
With the Mobile Device Management add-on, you can remotely manage, configure, and monitor mobile devices. Through a central interface, you can adjust settings for multiple devices simultaneously, implement policies, and take security-relevant actions.<\/p>\n
This add-on targets organizations using a larger number of mobile devices. Common use cases include:<\/p>\n
It is also suitable for schools, municipalities, or non-profit organizations with decentralized device deployments.<\/p>\n
To use this add-on, certain technical and administrative prerequisites must be met:<\/p>\n
The number of devices that can be managed is not fixed but depends on the TeamViewer license and booked Remote Management capacity.<\/p>\n
Setup is done directly via the TeamViewer Remote Management console. After activating the module, the IT administrator can register devices and create profile templates. Management is browser-based. Configuration changes are automatically synchronized after the next device connection.<\/p>\n
Communication between the Remote Management interface and the end device is encrypted using 4096-bit RSA key exchange and 256-bit AES encryption. The add-on also supports two-factor authentication (2FA) and complies with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).<\/p>\n
TeamViewer Assist AR Lite is an add-on for real-time remote support using augmented reality (AR). It expands an existing TeamViewer license with visual support for technical issues\u2014via the camera of a smartphone or tablet. This allows employees on-site to show equipment, devices, or error sources to the support team, who can then assist with instructions or documentation.<\/p>\n
This TeamViewer add-on is aimed at companies with decentralized technical devices or locations, where on-site support is costly or impractical. Typical use cases include:<\/p>\n
The following conditions must be met:<\/p>\n
Assist AR Lite is set up through the Remote Management interface. After activation, a unique session link is generated, which the user opens on their mobile device. The connection is established via a browser and is ready to use immediately. Control is intuitive via touchscreen or mouse.<\/p>\n
The entire session is secured with 256-bit AES end-to-end encryption. The add-on also supports security features such as two-factor authentication (2FA) and meets industry-specific compliance requirements, including:<\/p>\n
TeamViewer Asset Management is a complementary add-on designed for the structured recording, categorization, and management of all hardware and software components used within a company.<\/p>\n
With TeamViewer Asset Management, you can centrally record all IT resources and enrich them with additional metadata. This includes all device information, software versions, licenses, warranty periods, or inventory numbers.<\/p>\n
Larger organizations or companies in particular benefit from comprehensive IT documentation. Its use is recommended wherever compliance requirements, license management, or structured maintenance processes play a role \u2013 for example, in IT departments, data centers, or regulated industries such as healthcare.<\/p>\n
This add-on complements TeamViewer with built-in antivirus and security tools to protect workstations from malware, data leaks, and external threats.
It combines malware detection, behavior analysis, and real-time protection across all connected endpoints.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s aimed at organizations with high security requirements or distributed teams needing consistent protection\u2014e.g., in home offices, educational institutions, or service providers handling sensitive customer data.<\/p>\n
TeamViewer Device Monitoring is an add-on for active monitoring of system performance, network connections, and device status. It automatically detects when predefined thresholds are exceeded\u2014such as high CPU usage, low storage, or unusual temperatures.
In such cases, IT administrators are immediately notified.
This add-on is particularly useful in production environments, data centers, or distributed server landscapes.<\/p>\n
