Remote Support: Need of the Hour

Posted by adairsawyer on February 8th, 2013

In these times and age of cutthroat competition, any delays and shutdowns are anathema to large corporations and small businesses alike. And here I am not talking about IT companies as computers have become all pervasive and omnipresent in all setups. Any problem with hardware or software that was earlier left to be resolved by the IT team that arrived at the scene and took hours to solve is now preferred to be left to the attended and fixed by the remote support team.  It was common for companies to suffer from disruptions in normal operations for the time till the breakdown was attended and resolved. Remote support has obliterated the need of physical presence of the tech team that looks after the maintenance of network and other related issues. This means that the problems get resolved in no time at all saving a lot of time and effort.

The concept of remote assistance or support has gained prominence in recent times with the availability of support tools such as RDP (for Remote Desktop Protocol) or any other client to allow remote access of the computer. It is possible to allow a person to take control of your computer and resolve the issues himself or by getting online support and receiving instructions to help remove the problem. It is the latest approach of sharing the desktop with others sitting far away that has become the buzzword across all industries. Remote control is a technology that you have in your possession that call the expertise and services of an IT team round the clock but without having to worry about their salary.

Remote control has its own advantages

There are many companies that are providing remote desktop services repair these days. Once the software is installed on the computers of the organization, it becomes possible to remotely access all the computers whether one is sitting in home, office, any other country, or is on road going somewhere. Remote control is today very advanced and possible across platforms so that there is no problem of working on a different operating system or on a device that is not a computer or a laptop.

People making presentations to clinch business deals or to carry across their point have greatly benefitted with the introduction of this technology as they can now share their desktop with all those present in a seminar. It is far more convincing when everyone takes a look at the same graphic or data on his monitor than when only the presenter has the access to the information.

Remote support for computer related problems and breakdowns has comes as a boon for industries that are over reliant on computers. It has meant that there are no more delays for upgrades, maintenance, patches, and rectification of all problems.  Similarly, remote control has found applications in all industries including healthcare, education, transport, logistics, banking, insurance, and even transport and governance. Remote access of computers has meant transfer of documents and printing of documents from computers that are thousands of miles away.
