Are you tired of trying to follow confusing directions offered over the phone by a software or hardware support provider? Have you ever wanted to throw a software manual across the room? (Or maybe you lost the manual years ago?) Do you sometimes wish that someone could just reach through cyberspace, grab your mouse, and show you how to … import that data? …re-establish your network connection? …help with a software installation?
Welcome to TechConnect Remote Assistance. Not every problem requires a site visit, but not every solution is easy to explain on the phone. TechConnect Remote Assistance allows you to click on a link and grant us the right to connect to your machine. You can either give us mouse control to perform tasks directly, or keep control but let us guide you through the necessary procedures. (And to make that easy, we can even “draw” circles and arrows on your screen, and erase them at the click of a mouse!)
Because we know that sometimes all the help you need is a step in the right direction, this service is priced in quarter hour increments for existing clients. So when you don’t have time to wait for us to travel to you, or when your budget can’t handle charges for travel time just to show you something that will take 10 minutes, TechConnect Remote Assistance is the answer! Let the power of the internet and today’s technology provide more immediate, less intrusive, more budget-conscious solutions to your support needs!

With advance planning, a range of services can be provided on one visit, making effective use of your time and minimizing disruptions to your business.
