Technical support of employees and customers is becoming increasingly more complex as companies spread across the globe, laptops become more widely used, broadband enables anyone to work
from virtually anywhere, and support reps are called upon to understand how the product they'sre supporting interfaces with other products, overall networks, and systems. Although
currently not the support model most often deployed, remote desktop support is the most efficient way to address these issues and companies adopting this technology in the near future
will gain the competitive edge. NetworkStreaming'ss webcast, Remote Support in 2007: Solution Requirements, provides the key evaluation points and criteria needed to evaluate the remote desktop support solutions on the market and to find
one that'ss right for you.
Deployment of remote desktop support is expanding rapidly: NetworkStreaming acquires hundreds of new customer each and every quarter who are either adopting remote support technology for
the first time or are switching from another company. How does remote desktop support help companies gain the competitive edge Statistically, call resolution time, travel time, and
incident escalation can be reduced by as much as 70 percent, and support reps can handle more calls and decrease repeat incidents. This all adds up to increased productivity for both
support departments and their customers, and improved customer satisfaction.
The webcast, delivered by Nathan McNeill, VP of Product Management for NetworkStreaming, discusses general requirements, cost considerations, productivity features, security
considerations and integration points. With an eye to providing a solid foundation for those wishing to evaluate remote support products, McNeill details architecture requirements,
solution quality, platform support, total cost of ownership, ease of use, reporting administration, collaboration, security, integration, and customization.
Included with the webcast, NetworkStreaming provides an RFP template spreadsheet that ITs and support desk managers can use to evaluate the remote support solutions on the market.
According to McNeill, remote desktop support will gradually become more and more of a business necessity vs. a competitive advantage. Those companies who do not adopt it until later will
have to adopt it because their competitors will become more and more productive and efficient through the use of this technology. It'ss easier to keep pace than to catch up to competitors
later.
