is teamviewer safer than zoom?

I have heard about some problems with Zoom in that they don't sandbox their software which could allow malicious mischief. Would Teamviewer be any safer?

Mac Pro, macOS 10.13

TeamViewer is designed for remotely accessing hardware (e.g., for remote computer support -- remote desktop software) so it has a different purpose/use than Zoom (video conferencing). https://www.teamviewer.com/en-us/


Cisco Webex is video conferencing software that is more comparable to Zoom -- but I can't provide any information about relative safety. https://www.webex.com/video-conferencing
