Use Remote Desktop Management To Save Time

Take control of the computers in your network and beyond with the use of remote desktop management software. You can control PC's from a location that is remote from the computer that needs assistance. This is a great time saver for company IT's. The idea here is that if you are having issues with your computer you can contact an IT or computer repair shop to help you repair it and get you back to work without dismantling the office and packing up the computer to take it to a shop. This works well for larger companies, too. Imagine the busy IT having the ability to access the computers used throughout the building to troubleshoot an issue. The problem could be fixed in very short order without him or her having to physically walk across the company campus to access the computer with the glitch. The transfer speed can be rather high to make this a quick process. The remote computer is accessed through the network connection. Applications can be changed, updates performed, and downloads placed on the recipient's desktop. Any function can be done while the user is connected and without closing whatever is being worked on.

 

A full desktop screen can be observed by the technician to make it easy to see what may be happening. Screenshots can be captured and kept for reference or research, as in the case of an error message or other special information that may be needed to do a diagnostic on the computer.

 

Whatever the computer user was accessing before the trouble began will be seen by the tech because he will be able to hit the back button, for example, just as though he was present in front of the computer. By seeing the operations prior to the crash or other problem the IT can make a better assessment of the situation and apply the appropriate solutions. When the troubleshooting is complete and the tech knows what should be done to fix the problem, any action needed can be performed remotely as well. The computer can be shut down and restarted, hard rebooted, or whatever needs to be done.

 

Many different levels of this type software exist and you can choose the one with the features you need. The basic level programs will usually allow the remote access and interactive features. Screen shots can be seen and saved.

 

The middle of the road programs usually give the user those features in the basic programs plus more. The capability of shutting off the computer remotely, screen cast recordings, remote user chat options, lists of applications on the computer, performance data, inventory, and the ability to print the information.

 

For the best remote desktop management available the premium type has options that will give your IT the best chance of working efficiently and with the least hassle. There are options for OS hotfix, program folders, processor data, printer and device performance and more.
