HopToDesk vs TeamViewer
TeamViewer is one of the most widely used remote desktop applications in the world, known for its comprehensive feature set and cross-platform support. It provides remote access solutions for personal use, IT support, and enterprise management.
Wo HopToDesk passt
TeamViewer is the incumbent, and most teams looking at HopToDesk are already paying for it. The practical difference is where the cost sits: HopToDesk's client is free for personal and business use with no per-technician licence, and the paid tier is the Dashboard, which adds fleet monitoring, ticketing and team management on top rather than gating the remote session itself.

Was das Dashboard ergänzt
Der HopToDesk-Client ist kostenlos. Das Dashboard ist die kostenpflichtige Stufe und macht aus Fernzugriff eine verwaltete Plattform, von den ersten drei Geräten gratis bis zu 500 und mehr im Business-Tarif.
Switching from TeamViewer
- Install the free HopToDesk client on the machines you already reach with TeamViewer. It runs portable, so you can trial it without uninstalling anything.
- Create a free Dashboard account and add your first three devices at no cost to see the monitoring and ticket views against real machines.
- Deploy across the rest of the fleet with GPO, Intune, SCCM, Jamf or Ansible, or with a custom-branded client carrying your own name and logo.
- Move your team over once the device list looks right. Roles, invites and SSO are configured from the Dashboard.
Häufige Fragen
Is HopToDesk a drop-in replacement for TeamViewer?
For remote control, file transfer, chat and unattended access, yes. The Dashboard then covers the fleet management side, so most teams run both for a period and cut over once their device list is complete.
Do I pay per technician?
No. HopToDesk does not charge per seat or per technician. The Dashboard is priced on the plan, and the client stays free.
Can I keep using HopToDesk for free?
Yes. The client is free for personal and business use, and the Dashboard has a free plan covering three devices with no time limit.
