What remote support means

Simple explanation

Technician sees your screen through internet and fixes problems. Like looking over their shoulder but online. You watch everything happening. Safe and secure. Faster than waiting for visit.

How it works

You call or message about problem. Technician sends link to click. Small program downloads temporarily. Technician connects seeing your screen. They control mouse fixing issue. You watch entire process. Connection ends when finished.
