Hi all,

I assume you are reading these lines because of a message you got from your TeamViewer software.

Possibly something about a connection time-out or a suspected commercial usage.

I have good news for you: You found a post that sheds some light on the topic in case you are wondering what it is all about.

 

TL;DR

If you only want to reset your TeamViewer IDs to get back to private use, go directly to this page ( https://www.teamviewer.com/en/reset-management/ ) and request your reset. That´s it.

Step 1: Access the reset page

1) Open your browser and go to https://www.teamviewer.com/reset

2) Scroll down and click on Click Here to Start


Step 2: Fill out the form and download the PDF

1) Enter your contact details in the dedicated fields

2) Add all TeamViewer IDs that are involved in your connections. Enter the TeamViewer ID in the dedicated field and click on Click here to add ID. Repeat this for every ID you want to reset

3) Explain briefly how you are using TeamViewer

4) Sign in the dedicated box

5) Tick the two boxes confirming the data you have submitted and the Privacy Policy

6) Click on Generate & Upload PDF


The new normal

While most of us are still experiencing life in a more or less strict lock-down due to the Coronavirus Crisis, the importance of connections is becoming more apparent to many of us.

Many are talking about social distancing, but that's - as you know - not entirely accurate: It is physical distancing

With this, digitalization and remote connections are now part of our lives more than ever before. 

  • Working remotely
  • Staying in contact with family, friends, and colleagues remotely 
  • Running our lives and businesses from the safety of your home remotely.

Doing things remotely is part of the new normal.

 

Helping people

Today I was thinking about the meaning of this sentence:

TeamViewer empowers people to help others beyond borders and barriers.

This sentence is already a few years old, but it is still relevant today. Maybe more than ever?!

Well - first of all: I like this sentence. It is very powerful as it describes the Core of what people are doing: Independently from borders and barriers, distances, and uncertainties, people will always strive to help each other.

Whether it is your mom struggling with the new email program, your friend getting error messages they do not understand, or your brother who needs a helping hand with his mobile device.

In all these cases, TeamViewer is there for you. TeamViewer empowers you to help others and to stay in contact no matter the physical distance or the physical distancing we have been asked to follow.

All that is free of charge for private use. We here at TeamViewer want to support you in helping others by providing TeamViewer as a great software free of charge for private usage.

 

How is that possible?

Yes - how can TeamViewer do this? How can TeamViewer afford to develop and maintain stable, secure, and feature-rich software without asking for money?

Glad you asked!

TeamViewer is not free of charge for everyone. TeamViewer asks commercial users to purchase a license, and with this, we can continue providing the free version for all private users of our software.

There have been quite some discussions and questions about the question of what is private use and what is commercial use. Who needs to buy a license, and who can use the version for free?

I fully understand the questions and all of you who want to have a clear answer about what to do.

Today, I want to dive a bit deeper into that topic and explain the differences in larger detail.

Let me begin by talking about the TeamViewer Trial and after that, Commercial Use Suspected as it is essential to understand the difference before going more into detail.

 

TeamViewer Trial

Most of you know that TeamViewer asks its users during the installation of the software how they intend to use the software; for private use, or for commercial use

Update from September 17th, 2020:

In case you are installing TeamViewer on or after September 17th, 2020, you are no longer able to start a trial directly during the installation. The software will offer you during the installation to contact our Sales team to request an official trial that allows you to test TeamViewer with the full feature-set of a licensed version.

All other users can benefit from the default installation of the free version of TeamViewer.

Therefore, this chapter about "Trial expired" only applies to devices that have been downloading the TeamViewer software prior to September 17th, 2020.

If you choose commercial or both during the installation a trial phase for the commercial usage of the software starts.

What does that mean?

In this case, TeamViewer gives you as a commercial user a free-of-charge trial of the software.

Now you have time to test and check the software alone or with your team to evaluate whether or not to use TeamViewer in your business.

  • Did you like the outcome? Did TeamViewer convince you with its performance or the ease of use - GREAT! Now, you can go ahead and purchase a license and roll out TeamViewer in your company to start supporting your customers and colleagues.
  • If you already have a license - make sure it is activated on your account and that you are signed in with that account to the Computers & Contacts list.

Did you conclude that TeamViewer might not be the best fit for your needs? That´s sad news! Maybe you want to give us a call and discuss your findings, and I hope our team can help you to see the benefits and strengths of our software. But if you still say no - we are sad to see you leave, and we wish you all the best for your future and hope to see you once again! If you -on the other hand- choose private during the installation you did not start a trial version but the regular free version of TeamViewer. As no trial starts, no trial can end and you can use TeamViewer happily ever after. 

The trial version expired?? No worries!

Did you enjoy your software trial? Did TeamViewer convince you? Perfect - now it is time to

purchase a license

Well - I also know of cases where users rushed through the installation because they simply wanted to use the program and -dang- a trial starts even though they never intended to trial TeamViewer for later business use. They accidentally choose "commercial", started a trial, and now it is expired. 

For all of you experiencing exactly this, I have good news for you: No worries! We thought about these cases and created a form for you. You can request that we change the intended usage for you from commercial to private.

Please allow me to give you a pro-tip: Do not believe anyone telling you to uninstall and reinstall TeamViewer to get the trial removed. That does not work. Believe me - save yourself that time and the disappointment of the re-install burden. Just fill out the form and restart the TeamViewer service once you get an email from us or, alternatively, one or two days later if you do not hear back from us (yes - emails are not always delivered)

Request reset for an expired trial

As a personal side note: I realized that there is a bit of confusion with the trial and I wanted to make clear, that a trial does not start because TeamViewer thinks you are using it commercially:

  1. A trial will only start if you tell the software that your intention is to use it commercially or both commercially and privately together during the installation.
  2. The other possibility is, that you installed TeamViewer on a server OS. A server OS does indeed require a license and a free usage is not possible. That means also filling out the form will not remove the trial from your device.

 

TeamViewer suspects commercial usage

If your TeamViewer tells you it suspects you to use the software commercially, I already know two things about you:

  1. You choose private as the intended usage when installing TeamViewer 
  2. Your usage pattern indicates a commercial usage of TeamViewer

And now you know two things about TeamViewer:

  1. TeamViewer understands and acknowledges that your individual free private use may be irregular at times when you need to help your friends and family - still we allow us to ask you the question of whether your usage changed from private to commercial.
  2. TeamViewer compares your usage patterns with typical usage patterns of free private users and with typical usage patterns of business or enterprise users.

Please excuse, if the suspicion of you using TeamViewer commercially might be false - a so-called false-positive. We know that there can be cases where the usage of the software might be broader, more intense but still totally private.

And you already might guess it: For those cases, we offer you to review and re-evaluate the usage-suspicion and to reset the limitations of your TeamViewer Device ID or TeamViewer account. 

Request reset for a suspected commercial use

If you are able to verify an exclusively private use, we are happy to reset access to our software and services for you.

Sorry - Now it is getting a bit less chatty and more formal: And even if TeamViewer continues to suspect a commercial use after reviewing your commercial-use-suspected form (and your usage explanation), we give you the opportunity to fill out a self-declaration of free private use in accordance with the TeamViewer EULA. If we receive such a self-declaration, we will reset access to our software and services for you. However, TeamViewer does reserve the right to take further actions in case your usage pattern indicates a commercial use again at a later stage. These further actions may result in suspending or closing your TeamViewer account and/or TeamViewer IDs or suspending or limiting the connection duration.

Please understand that we always did, continue to do so, and will always protect our software against misuse. Intended and unintended. Still - Communication is key. Let´s stay in contact, let´s learn from each other, and let´s be successful together!

I think it is crucial to keep on talking about it, keep on educating everyone e.g., about what we consider private or commercial, keep on having a realistic look at what is going on, and adjust what we are doing. 

Maybe a good example of such an adjustment is the current Coronavirus Crisis: Here, we are not pushy. We understand this as a special situation. A situation in which we are asked to not ask too many questions. And this is what we do. 

One thing is for sure: We are thankful for everyone who is playing fair. We are thankful for everyone who is supporting us and others by buying a license for using TeamViewer for business.

I think, every now and then it makes sense for everyone to review their own usage and ask the following or similar questions: Didn´t I start using TeamViewer for my business? Didn´t I begin to connect through TeamViewer to quickly read my emails? Didn´t I benefit from TeamViewer and ease my work-life balance? Didn´t I work from home via TeamViewer?

And if you can answer one of these questions with yes: Here is the link to our webshop: https://www.teamviewer.com/en/buy-now/ Thank you for playing fair!

 

Still suspected to use TeamViewer commercially?

OK - your TeamViewer has been suspected to be used commercially, you filled out the form as you are certain, that this is not the case. You now got the confirmation for the reset of your TeamViewer ID but you are still getting the message saying you are suspected to use TeamViewer commercially?

What is going on you may ask yourself.

If you are still getting the PopUp saying you are using TeamViewer commercially, it is possible that the TeamViewer ID of the remote device (the one you are trying to connect to) might be under this suspicion. The thing is: Both sides of the connection get the PopUp about the commercial suspicion.

A TeamViewer connection always involves two devices and with this: two TeamViewer IDs.

Therefore, if you are still getting the message, even though you received a confirmation saying that your TeamViewer ID has been reset, it is most probably due to the fact that the TeamViewer ID of the remote device you are trying to connect to is suspected to be used commercially. 

In this case, please repeat the process and fill out an additional form for this TeamViewer ID as well.

 

Shutting down the free usage? NO!

I hope this is crystal clear by now, but still: Some people have been worrying about whether TeamViewer wants to stop offering its free service for private users.

We always tried to be very clear with our replies and take away this fear from our users by giving a clear answer: 

No. The private use of TeamViewer is free.

And this is it: Nothing more to say about it. TeamViewer is free for private use.

 

What is considered private?

This is the one-million-dollar question. Or rather in our case, the-starting-at-10-dollar-a-month question.

Let us start here: Private usage is most likely given when you are using our software and services solely in the context of activities, in the environment, and with the equipment available for you within your private and/or family life context.

I collected a few examples of private use for you for a better understanding:

✔ You are providing free computer support to a family member or friend using a private PC from home

✔ You are using TeamViewer on one of your private devices to connect to another private device; e.g. to look for a file stored locally;

✔ You are helping your family members to set up their private (mobile) devices;

✔ You are teaching a family member how to use a new program;

✔ You are using TeamViewer as a communication tool for interaction with family members or friends;

✔ You are using TeamViewer to connect to your personal gaming device (non-server operating system).

 

What is considered commercial?

My understanding of commercial usage:

Commercial use is any use of our software and services in the context of an activity or environment that goes beyond your private or family life.

Your private use includes your circle of friends and your family but not your customers and colleagues and also not your office, work devices, or corporate network.

Commercial use includes any activities related to your work but is not limited to a context where there is any relation to gainful activities of any sort. That means e.g., that the usage of TeamViewer within a club that has membership fees or pays rent for its facilities is considered commercial. 

Allow me to share some relevant factors that are applied by TeamViewer to identify commercial use:

  • usage patterns typical for business or enterprise users, e.g., using email addresses with commercial domains for a TeamViewer account,
  • connections to, from, or within a corporate network,
  • connections to, from, or within a server operating system,
  • using typical device specifications or device types indicating a business relation.

OK - let´s put that information in a few examples:

✔ You are using TeamViewer for activities related to your work

✔ You are providing support to your customers, clients or colleagues; 

✔ You are using TeamViewer in your home office or for connecting to or from your work computer;  

✔ You are connecting from your work PC to your home PC (or wise versa) to access files stored locally. 

✔ You are using TeamViewer as a communication tool within your company or for work purposes

 

Commercial or Private?

Ok - let´s make this a game and you can guess: Is it private or commercial usage?

  1. I am using TeamViewer in my home office for connections - Commercial usage
  2. My father has a new tablet and needs my help in setting it up - Private usage
  3. I want to play a video game after work at home and I am using TeamViewer from my mobile to stand in the queue  - Private usage
  4. I am connecting from my mobile to my work computer to check some emails when on the go -Commercial usage
  5. I am teaching a family member how to use a new program  - Private Usage
  6. My father has a new tablet and needs my help in setting it up. As I am at work I quickly connect from my work computer to his tablet - Commercial usage
  7. I am using TeamViewer for chatting and video calls with a friend - Private usage
  8. I am teaching a colleague how to use a new program - Commercial usage
  9. I am teaching a customer how to use a new program  - Commercial usage
  10. I am connecting from my work PC to my home PC to access files stored locally - Commercial usage
  11. I am providing tech support for a living and use TeamViewer as a remote support tool - Commercial usage
  12. I am sharing one device for my work (as license-owner) and my private life. Commercial usage - (I highly recommend never to use your personal devices for any work-related purposes. Mixed usage of commercial and private connections is not possible and not supported and requires a license. While your regular connections to your friends and family are not requiring a license - all connections to your work device do. Therefore I recommend not to use a personal device for work-related stuff as it will hinder you to support your family.)
  13. I am using TeamViewer on one of my private devices to connect to my other private devices; e.g. to look for a file stored locally; - Private usage

    Let me share my experience so far about Team Viewer:

    It is fantastic, no doubt. Iused it as a free member then purchased the license for an year.

    But my usage was hindrered time and again by blogs coming and informing me that my trial period as free member is finished. Then I was not able to work. I never received a password so was never able to use my account from another computer.

    Esther fixed the issue and I was able to use team viewer from my one computer only. But every time I have to go my email where I have the Get Me Started option. Esther was very helpful so I have sent the message to her for her helo again.

    I had been using Teamviewer for 2 years. I never use Teamviewer with commercial purpose. However, the system thought the authorization as the commercial purpose. Therefore, my account was suspended. 

    How could I release the issue? 

    Thanks a lot.

    @Nicky823 Thanks for your comment. In the blog post above you will find the links to request the reset. Please make sure to fill out the correct form based on the message you got. Is your trial expired or does TeamViewer suspect that you are using the software commercially? All relevant info you need is posted in this blog article above ?

    Good morning Esther,

     

    I use Teamviewer Free version for many years now and every few months I have to explain that I don't use Teamviewer for commercial. I explained that mostly I use my own laptop, but when I am in the office I use Teamviewer for reading Facebook, because Facebook is not allowed in the office. Every time you agree with this explanation, but after a few months I get the message that I use it for commercial. I filled in a form a few months ago, I hope it is enough again for this time. Now I am for holidays in Bulgaria and I miss Teamviewer very much. I only get the message on one computer at home, not on other computers in the house.

    Hi @Esther 
    I already submitted the form in March that I do not use my team viewer for business. Every now and then I help a friend with computer problems and my mother. You continuously call me as a business user this is very annoying. 

    I can't reach you by phone. he says phone number not in use.Private message also not possible

    Now I chat with arib this morning but he just wants to sell me a license and breaks the chat very rude.

    this concerns TV: **Please do not post TeamViewer IDs** and this has been running since March. my id cannot be taken off the commercial story once and for all. I am not going to buy a license. then I have to look for another program

    I hope you can help me because the pardoning department has not responded to me since March

    regards Jurgen

  • Hi Ester, 

    I understand that any access to/from computers that are connected to a corporate network is considered 'commercial use'. 

    May I know what category it would fall under if I were using my university's wifi, then? 

    I want to reorganise and transfer some files (like journal articles which are accessible only from school) to my personal computer due to the whole covid situation. Would this be considered commercial use if I were using it for my homework assignments? 

    Thank you! 

  • Esther
    Esther Posts: 4,052 Former Community Manager

    @yellowchalk Thanks for your question. Yes - I would count connections to or from universities as Commercial use. Keeping in mind that you need to pay money to visit a university.. and even those universities that are offering their service for free, do charge a small nominal university fee to cover their costs that also incl. software licenses.

    I would recommend that the university can reach out to our Sales team to discuss the options for educational institutes.

    As a side note - until the end of this month TeamViewer still offers its collaboration software blizz for free for educational institutes: https://www.blizz.com/en/blizz-for-school/

    So basically almost everything useful is considered for commercial purpose. 

    I am accessing a computer from home (during Covid lock down) and this is considered for commercial purpose. I am not selling stuff but I am just trying to work using a faster computer (the one that I have in my office) to accomplish my task.

  • Esther
    Esther Posts: 4,052 Former Community Manager

    Hi @Worg Yes - using TeamViewer for HomeOffice or for connections to your work computer is typical commercial usage and requires a license.

    Sorry to bother you AGAIN but I think I have NO OTHER CHOICE but turn to you @Esther .

    I wait for another week but still no reply. It has been two weeks since I submitted the reset request for the first time. But still no email reply.

    (1) In this page (https://www.teamviewer.com/en/reset-management/ ), it still shows "Your request has already been submitted and is pending further review. Thank you for your patience as we process your request." for HALF A MONTH!!! You suggested that I resubmit it but there are NO other options on this page to resubmit. And I waited for 14 days already.

    (2) I also tried to fill the form in this page (https://www.teamviewer.com/en/support/commercial-use-suspected/ ). Also no reply.

    What can I do now? I really need your software and I have waited for too many days (exceeds 7 days mentioned on your website). And I even have no way to view the progress. Help me with it THANKS!!!

    @pingty Sorry to hear that, but I promise the team will check all requests one by one. However - as written in the article above: It is also possible that you will not receive an email reply due to various reasons. I still recommend testing whether your TeamViewer works again regularly. The best is to restart your TeamViewer and test it again. Maybe it works already ?

    IMPORTANT note for everyone: Always make sure to fill out the form completely - incomplete forms will most likely not be worked on. And check twice whether you typed your TeamViewer ID correctly.

    Since JeanK seems to be modding criticisim out of 
    https://community.teamviewer.com/t5/Community-Blog/Help-your-parents-and-friends-using-TeamViewer/  
    (My post and one from another user i got an email notifcation of are not visible anymore)

    I'll mention here,  this feature is biting people right when they need it, rendering TV untrustworthy fix it or we'll flick it.

    Why not offer a paid private account that gives more flexability, i HATE it when companies have a free version then go straight to a rediculous amount  (eg TV is free or [removed per Community Guidelines] [aussie], my childs primary school education is less than that, so to poay that for occasional access/family support is dumb) I'm not saying id take up that offer, I tolerate TVs cluttered UI because leaner and cleaner alternatives are still just a smidge too much).

    Also some pretty fine tightrope walking "Private use from office = commercial" "Private use from home office (if TV is only ever used privately) = Private  (or is it even more draconian than i thought and that considered commercial as well, if thats the case i'll uninstall right now)"

    Hi @_Tim_ ,

    Thank you for your feedback.

    I would like to share the great news with you that TeamViewer created a new license type called the Remote Access license. Our goal was to offer a low price, high-value solution for specific use cases like Remote Access or Remote Work. Classic examples are Home Offices or Server administration to a limited extent.

    You might want to check out this link: https://www.teamviewer.com/en/content/lo-remote-access/
