Computer Remote Support

We can provide you with telephone, email or dial in remote support. This may mitigate the need for an onsite visit saving you time and money. Dial in is a very common way to troubleshoot and rectify problems in the IT world.

What is dial in remote support?

dial in remote when you download a reputable program such as TeamViewer or Google Chrome Desktop and grant an outside user such as a trusted technician access to take control of your keyboard and mouse remotely by advising them the remote username and password issued by the downloaded software. The technician can then use your computer remotely to further troubleshoot and fix any problems as if they were onsite.

This should be only be done with trusted technicians using reputable software. For your peace of mind the software advises you when someone is logged in remotely and a new password is issued whenever the pc is logged out or rebooted.
