- Hardware accelerated scaling leverages rendering power of CPU and GPU:†This new feature, a performance boost and relief for the system, leverages the rendering power of the CPU and the GPU to allow for faster remote connections, reduced reaction time and a reduced load on the CPU.
- Addressing enterprise functionality needs with identity and access management and enforced session recording:†TeamViewer’s new identity and access management, available as a preview, enables centralized control of TeamViewer accounts in organizational groups.

Support recipients will keep the right to opt out of the session recording. - New native Linux client supplements native Linux host:†With the release of version 13, TeamViewer announces the preview of a new native Linux client, which will be available shortly.
