I had a TeamViewer subscription for a few years. Getting it cancelled when I elected not to renew it was tedious and difficult.
I don’t recommend TeamViewer anymore. My opinion is that they are janky as hell.

Here's the ref in case anyone else wants to watch it also:
I tend to avoid it unless I'm fairly certain the product / company will last for longer than it would cost me per year of a subscription (to make sure my "investment" is worth it), and that I'll use it extensively.
Nothing is truely forever, and moreso in the world of software.
You will also need to connect to hosts with IPs and open your ports; it doesn't have the ability to punch through firewalls like TeamViewer can.
But the fact is that, since its inception, NoMachine was intended as an "advanced communication and remote desktop tool", more a "professional tool", not intended for the "wide public", especially because you had to "know" and be able to configure things like "an IP address", which is more in the "professional space".
To make NoMachine apt for widespread adoption, we need NoMachine Network, the infrastructure that will allow people to connect by just knowing a "machine id", the same TeamViewer does, and we are working on it. Expect this very soon.
But that said...
We would love to know form you where we can improve the NoMachine UI, to make it more usable, more friendly less "confusing" (if it is) and less intimidating. If you like, you can obviously also contact us directly. Do as you like, but we would love to hear from you.
