Back to my Mac or TeamViewer

Morning,

I am currently using TeamViewer to access my mother's iMac running Mountain Lion. It is Ok for doing very basic stuff but is terribly slow given her slow upload speed.

I was now wondering if using Back to my Mac would be the better way to go.

I know that I would have to setup my iCloud account on her Mac which is fine for this purpose. My understanding is that I will have full remote control over her MAC using Back to my Mac, right?

What is your experience between these two methods? Is Back to my Mac using the bandwidth in a more efficient way than i.e. TeamViewer?

Thanks.
