HOW A REMOTE SUPPORT SESSION WORKS

1. Guest (Customer) Contacts Support

When a customer experiences a problem, they reach out to tech support through email, phone or any way they can.

2. Host (Technician) Creates a Session

The support tech fields the request and solves the problem by:

  • Creating a support session
  • Inviting the guest to the support session by one of many methods

3. Customer Joins Session

  • Guest navigates to remote.nerds.co.za
  • Guest enters security code
  • Guest clicks “Join” button and is connected to the host

4. Guest Receives Client

Clients are deployed on-demand, so no prior setup is required.

  • Guest does not have to be an admin
  • Guest client is removed after session

5. Host Connects to Guest

Remote support client is deployed on-demand to host from Your ScreenConnect.

  • Host does not need software installed prior to installation. Central web application manages everything.

6. Host can now Control Machine

The host can see the guest machine and control the keyboard and mouse. The host also has access to various tools such as reboot, file transfer, toolbox, clipboard, and dozens more.
