TeamViewer, a provider of remote connectivity and digital workplace solutions, unveiled its latest AI-driven features at Microsoft Ignite 2024. Recognized as the 2024 Microsoft Teams Partner of the Year, TeamViewer highlighted new capabilities that integrate with Microsoft Teams, Microsoft 365 Copilot, and Microsoft Azure OpenAI Service. These integrations aim to enhance IT support efficiency and transform customer service.
AI-Driven Session Insights
One of the key innovations presented is TeamViewer’s AI-driven Session Insights feature, designed to improve remote support sessions by:
- Generating immediate, detailed summaries of support interactions.
- Providing step-by-step action plans for problem resolution.
- Offering insights for reporting and identifying recurring issues.
These features help IT teams resolve issues more quickly and prevent future disruptions. Additionally, an integrated analytics dashboard enables IT leaders to analyze patterns, optimize resource allocation, and improve service levels.
Seamless Integration with Microsoft Tools
Through integration with Microsoft Teams and Microsoft 365 Copilot, TeamViewer empowers IT teams with robust support capabilities directly within the Microsoft Teams environment. Key benefits include:
- Conducting in-chat and in-call support sessions without leaving Teams.
- Accessing historical session data, insights, and AI-driven recommendations through Microsoft 365 Copilot.
- Streamlined workflows that allow agents to retrieve device data, review past interactions, and suggest solutions quickly.
For example, when a support request is initiated in Teams, agents can use Copilot to retrieve relevant information, access device notes, and launch a TeamViewer session, all within the Teams interface.
Enhanced Support Efficiency
These integrated tools improve response times and reduce repetitive tasks, enabling agents to deliver faster, more effective support. By combining TeamViewer’s remote connectivity capabilities with Microsoft’s AI-driven tools, organizations can achieve more collaborative and efficient IT support processes.
“Microsoft Azure OpenAI Service is at the core of our AI-driven insights, ensuring data security and efficiency as we deliver high-performance solutions at scale,” said Mei Dent, Chief Product & Technology Officer at TeamViewer. “This integration with Microsoft marks the beginning of a broader strategy to embed AI deeply into IT support operations. By connecting TeamViewer insights with Microsoft 365 Copilot via copilot agents, we’re enabling teams to tackle issues proactively, optimize operations, and make data-driven decisions with ease. Our vision is to empower support teams to collaborate seamlessly and drive smarter, more agile support within a unified platform.”
“As TeamViewer continues to advance its collaboration with Microsoft, we remain committed to leading industry standards and empowering IT teams to achieve new levels of service excellence. In a future where AI-driven support is the norm, TeamViewer aims to stay at the forefront, integrating deep AI insights with Azure’s capabilities to deliver support that is faster, smarter, and more secure,” said Alfredo Patron, Executive Vice President of Business Development at TeamViewer.
Edith Wittmann, General Manager of Global Partner Solutions Germany at Microsoft added, “Integrating TeamViewer’s advanced remote support and workflow solutions with Microsoft’s AI and cloud solutions, we are not only improving agent productivity today, but moving towards an agent-less remote support in the future, which will be a game-changer for our customers.”
