Providing timely, efficient and cost effective technical support is one of the challenges many organizations face today. A support incident can involve a tricky diagnostic process, with most of the time spent trying to understand what the actual problem is. This is further complicated when multiple operating systems exist, customers exist outside the network and an increasing number of mobile devices must be supported. Remote control tools which allow remote access to or control over another computer are a natural choice for transferring files, running applications and resolving critical technical issues.
There are numerous advantages to having a help desk solution that can remotely support customers. Resolution of problems is faster and more accurate, and this translates to increased customer satisfaction and loyalty as well as increased productivity and cost savings.
Typically, a support incident involves a lengthy and complex diagnostic process which can take hours or even days of e-mails and phone sessions to resolve. With remote support, the time spent understanding the problem is cut down dramatically as the help desk representative can see the actual error message, find the relevant configuration information and guide the customer to the correct resolution. The problem can be resolved in one single interactive session.
Normally, remote control help desk solutions require the customer's computer to have software pre-installed and running in order for someone to gain access. In many situations, however, a support center may help thousands of customers, making it financially and operationally infeasible to install traditional remote support clients on each machine.
The answer to the problem lies in the growth of on demand software solutions. On demand solutions provide a way for customers to get expert technical support anytime and anywhere. Internet-based solutions, such as Netop OnDemand, provide remote control support without pre-installing software or leaving a footprint on the end user's computer. When the customer calls the support center, the representative issues a service ticket and the customer is guided to a web site to download an executable file. After the file is downloaded, the help desk agent takes control over the computer and resolves the issue. When the session ends, the representative disconnects and the application deletes itself without leaving a footprint. Netop OnDemand puts the support agent at the end user's computer to provide support exactly when it is needed. Most importantly, Netop OnDemand is secure. It doesn't rely on third party servers to store information or route traffic and offers 256-bit AES encryption, securing all sessions from eavesdropping.
Netop OnDemand makes it easy to diagnose and resolves issues. Its design does so in a way that is secure, under the end user's control, fast and scalable. Furthermore, it doesn't require end users to install time-consuming or undesirable software.

"While Netop integrates remote control and on demand via the Internet, we would have required at least two different applications if we had decided on any competitive application."
