Distant Desktop Management Improves Expedience

When using remote desktop management programs you can free up your IT for other tasks. It will be much easier to fix and improve the performance of the computers in your network. Computers outside of the network can be repaired as well if they are set up on the system. The IT or repair person will be troubleshooting remotely but will see the same desktop screen that you have up on your computer.

 

Someone can access your computer from afar and troubleshoot, change settings, or anything else that needs to be done to get the machine up and running again. The ability to share control will free you up from disassembling your PC and hauling it into the tech shop.

 

Companies with multiple computers are perfect candidates for this type of management program. The IT seems to be the busiest employee in the company no matter where you work. A good deal of time is spent in walking from office to office to help with computer issues. Imagine the ability to resolve most problems remotely. The time saved could be significant.

 

These tasks can be more efficiently accomplished with the use of a high speed transfer rate that's available in the remote programs. The applications on a computer can be updated or changed, performance checks performed, or downloads can be deposited onto the recipient desktop. The user doesn't need to close what is being worked on for the tech to access the computer.

 

The tech will see a full screen desktop as it appears on the computer that is having the problem. Any screen shots the tech observes that could be significant to solving a problem can be saved. How many times have you received an error message only to forget which number the error states?

 

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 tech has isolated the problem with the computer, an action can be commanded remotely as appropriate to the repair process. The computer being repaired can be rebooted, shut off, locked or unlocked, programs launched, or applications stopped. 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.

 

A remote desktop management program that has all the bells and whistles will typically include everything in the basic and medium access type programs and more. They may contain the ability to create a PC schedule of file operation. There is an option for added inventory data such as processor info, disk drives, printers, OS hotfix info, and program folders.
