Avoiding Unnecessary Hardware Upgrades by Using Remote Access Software

One of the less obvious benefits of using a remote access software like I’m InTouch is that it can help limit the need for expensive hardware upgrades and replacements. For instance, if you use a laptop in addition to your home or office desktop PC, you probably find yourself upgrading to a more powerful laptop every couple of years.

With I’m InTouch, you can use your laptop to remotely control your desktop PC from anywhere you can pick up an Internet signal. This means you only need to worry about upgrading your desktop PC as needed since it will be doing all the heavy lifting. Your laptop essentially becomes a viewer and just needs to be able to connect to the Internet using a web browser.

An added benefit is that all youri nformation will be centralized on your desktop PC and not stored in mulitple locations. Your laptop becomes a dumb terminal that you use to remotely access your PC which removes the need to store files on it. This also protects you from any possibility of data breaches if the laptop is lost or stolen.

Remotly Support Your Customers with I’m OnCall Help Desk Software

If you provide IT support to customers or employees, there have generally been two ways  1) Traveling to the customer’s physical location or 2) On the phone. Neither of these solutions is an ideal one.

Traveling to a customer’s computer is expensive and time consuming. It also limits the number of customers you can support to those you can reach in your car. Supporting customers over the phone can be even more time consuming as you try and diagnose a problem based on what the customer sees. This generally leads to a lot of frustration for both you and the customer.

Wouldn’t it be nice if you could combine the geographical reach of the phone with the control of actually seeing the customer’s computer screen? With 01 Communique’s I’m OnCall help desk software, you can!

Instantly take PC remote control of any customer’s computer from your PC to diagnose and resolve issues quickly. You can see for yourself exactly what the problem is and install any needed updates or fixes. You can even transfer files to the remote computer if required. Best of all, no software needs to be installed on your or the customer’s PC so you can support anybody from anywhere.

Never Worry About Remembering Another Remote Access Password Again

With the I’m InTouch SecureKEY Remote Access USB Stick, taking remote control of your distant PC is as easy as plugging a USB drive into a computer. The SecureKEY allows you to safely store your I’m InTouch remote access login information on the device and then automatically take remote control of your distant computer in seconds, just by plugging it into the USB slot of any PC with an Internet connection.

Not only does the SecureKEY make remotely accessing your PC a breeze, it also ensures that there is no possbility of unauthorized remote access. I’m InTouch Premium users can require that only a computer with their personal SecureKEY inserted into the USB slot can be used to remotely access their PC.  This means that even if somebody were to somehow learn your remote access login information, they would be unable to remotely control your PC since they would not have your SecureKEY.

Andrew Weiner of Examiner.com recently took a look at the SecureKEY.  See what he had to say here.
