Remote Support Session via Web interface

Administrator: Provide remote support at all time via the web interface

Remote Access Helpdesk offers administrators the provision to manage technicians. For this, sign up and login to your Remote Access Helpdesk account at www.remotepc.com. Click the
'Add/Remove Technician' icon on the web console.

You can create an account for your technician(s) by assigning an ID – using which the support personnel can login from the website to conduct the support session.

While you can create as many technicians as required, the number of concurrent support sessions that the technician(s) can conduct will depend on the plan.

In case of a situation where you are required to share your Remote Access Helpdesk login credentials with others, you can protect the privacy of critical information like credit card details etc. by enabling the Enhanced Security Password under 'Edit Profile'.




To view the session report of the remote support sessions conducted by your technicians, click the 'Session Report' icon.
