Looking for a TeamViewer alternative? Read our side-by-side comparison to understand the key differences between the two remote management solutions and why Goverlan is the best alternative. |
TeamViewer® was originally designed as a collaboration tool and later expanded to provide some IT remote support and management features. As a result, it’s remote access and IT management features are limited.
Goverlan was founded in 1998 with the specific mission to develop a simpler, more secure, more agile remote support and IT management software. Goverlan Reach’s architecture has been specifically designed to solve the daily issues that their system administrators and IT support staff encounter. Goverlan uses behind-the-scenes tools to support users without interrupting them.

WHEN SECURITY IS A KEY REQUIREMENT
It is important for IT departments to be able to provide a positive and effective IT support experience with flexible Workflow. However, it shouldn’t be to the detriment of security and integrity.
Goverlan Reach adheres to the highest security standards in the industry:
- On-premises solution – privileged access information is never stored on the cloud
- Encrypted communications
- Uses the underlying operating system’s native security to authenticate and authorize support actions (no proprietary elevated access point is exposed)
- Centralized and distributed auditing of every action performed on machines by operators
- Supports HSPD-12 / FIPS201 / FIPS140-2 compliance
Goverlan is SO MUCH MORE than a Remote Desktop Tool
A Remote Desktop Access tool such as TeamViewer is straightforward. However, it has drawbacks:
- It interrupts the remote user as they watch you do your work, instead of doing theirs
- Gaining privilege access and performing advanced management task is difficult
What if you could fully support your machines without interrupting your end-users? Execute advanced management tasks and support duties in the background while the remote user continues working.
