Benefits of remote access to servers

There are many methods available for companies to set up accessible yet secure remote monitoring and management systems, such as remote server desktops, remote server applications, or remote server connection protocols.

  • Central point of management

    Many businesses and organizations choose to centrally manage remote server access as this offers a better overview of application licensing for multiple users and assists in company-wide remote maintenance. Remote server applications bring monitoring and management of remote services under one roof and can be easily installed on any computer chosen as your remote control server host. Thanks to this central point of management, the responsibility for keeping the server running and performing to your specifications remains with your IT professionals, wherever they are located.

  • Support better performance

    Remote server access improves the performance and availability of servers, as well as the productivity and efficiency of employees. Controlling your servers remotely allows faster and easier access to data and applications, as well as better collaboration and communication among teams. IT support teams can also automate and optimize server management tasks via a remote server connection, such as backup, recovery, monitoring, and troubleshooting. 

  • Enhanced security and compliance

    The security and compliance of servers, as well as the data and applications stored on them, are enhanced through remote server access. IT teams can leverage remote server applications to implement encryption, authentication, authorization, and auditing protocols, as well as enforce policies and regulations. A secure remote server desktop also reduces the risks of data loss, theft, or damage.

  • Improved efficiency and lower costs

    Remote server access reduces the time and expense of maintaining and operating servers and enables the use of cloud computing, which offers scalable and flexible resources at lower costs.

The basics

TeamViewer remote server application

TeamViewer Remote is a cross-platform solution that allows access to both servers and client devices and offers secure remote control capabilities. This third-party software is cloud-based and therefore equally accessible to all users of the company network — regardless of which operating system or end device they use; Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, or Android.

Granting remote access to a corporate server, especially to external IT service providers, requires extreme trust, which is why TeamViewer’s security measures are of utmost importance for the remote control of servers. With watertight security measures that include encryption, multifactor authentication, and complete account protection, you can rest assured that your server is secure.
