Remote Assistance

Common questions:

  • What is it?  Our remote assistance tool is a lightweight remote assistance tool built upon the commonly used VNC remote control utility.
  • Is it safe?  It sure is! In order for us to connect, you must first download the file, launch it and initiate the connection. You are in complete control.
  • How do I terminate the connection?  Simple. When active, the tool will place a small icon in the lower right system tray. Just right click on the icon and select 'Close'
  • What happens when I close the session?  Well, the first thing that happens is the tool disconnects and then actually uninstalls right before your eyes.
  • What does this cost?  The tool itself is free. Standard telephone/remote support billing rates for the actual service do apply

* Internet connectivity a must, firewalls must be set to allow outbound traffic. Windows platforms only.
