Remote Control can be used for direct hands-on support when a manager or technician needs to use keyboard and mouse on a remote computer.
This feature allows you to reduce time to resolution by fixing issues in the exact user context.
Typical use cases include:
- Helping an employee fix a problem in real time.
- Completing blocked updates or configuration steps remotely.
- Showing an employee the correct workflow step by step.
- Verifying suspicious behavior while the employee is online.
- Confirming immediately that a fix worked before ending the session.
