Instant Housecall Eliminates On-Site Computer Support Visits
Instant Housecall, Inc. has released Instant Housecall v. 3.4, a secure,
powerful application that lets you take temporary control of your
clients' remote Windows computers. From the comfort of your office, you
can transfer files, run programs, perform diagnostics, and even reboot
their machine. Instant Housecall lets you dramatically enhance the
technical support that you can provide directly from your office or
home, instantly and securely.
When your clients need computer support, they simply run Instant
Housecall, type their support request, and invite you to help them. When
you receive a client's invitation, you create a temporary, secure
session in which you take control of their desktop computer. Instant
Housecall is firewall and router friendly, allowing you to contact their
computer and access it as if it were on your desktop. The session is
secure, and when the session ends, your client has the peace of mind of
knowing that you can no longer access their computer, unless they invite
you to start another session.
Installation of Instant Housecall on customer computers is fast,
web-based, and requires no technical knowledge about ports, routers, or
connections. During each support session, your customer can participate
in a two-way chat with your technical support person. There's a two-way
clipboard that allows files to be passed back and forth.
Instant Housecall is fully Vista compliant, and supports Vista UAC
prompts. The program is designed to let each of your technical
specialists support up to ten simultaneous customers. It's easy to
ensure that each customer's invitation for support is sent to the proper
specialist.
With its emphasis on security, the program features session logging, SSL
encryption, and configurable security settings. Because of identity
theft and other security considerations, many clients are reluctant to
allow access to their computers. With Instant Housecall, customers
initiate the request for help. Once a support session is complete, all
connections are closed.
Additional features include the ability to reboot customers' computers,
automatic recovery from accidentally dropped connections, support for
rebooting in safe mode, ctl-alt-del access to the Windows task manager,
the ability to sign off as one user and sign in as another, and pager,
SMS, and email notifications of support requests.
Whether you're a computer dealer or VAR who needs to provide immediate
support to your customers, a software vendor who wants to elevate your
product support performance to a higher level, a help desk manager who
is responsible for providing in-house support to computer users across
the enterprise, or a computer consultant who needs to solve clients'
problems in real-time, Instant Housecall has the tools that you need.
Instant Housecall v. 3.4 runs on Windows 95/98/Me/2000/XP/2003/Vista,
and may be purchased securely online from
http://XXXXXXX.com/. You can download a free trial copy
from the same web address.
Instant Housecall is available on two different payment plans, with no
hidden costs or per-minute charges. Both plans let you provide your
customers with free copies of Instant Housecall. With the pay-as-you-go
plan, prices are as low as $5(US) per session. The flat-rate monthly
plan costs $89(US) per month when you sign up for 12 months; this plan
entitles you to an unlimited number of sessions. Instant Housecall comes
with a no-risk, 30-day money back guarantee. Please call the company to
discuss support and pricing for your special training and usage
requirements.
