Danware, the world`s leading provider of high-end remote control software for professional users, announced today the latest extension of its NetOp Remote Control product line. NetOp On Demand Remote Control is a new breed of remote support tools that is being rapidly adopted in help-desk centers. It allows technical support staff and help-desk employees to virtually sit next to their customers, see what`s on their screens, and share their mouse and keyboard control. NetOp On Demand makes it easy to set up a connection to a help-desk center, regardless of firewall configurations.
With NetOp On Demand it has become easier to diagnose and resolve issues. Most importantly, its design means that it does this in a way that is secure, under the end user`s control, fast, and scalable. NetOp On Demand doesn`t require end users to install time-consuming or undesired software, and because it is part of the NetOp Remote Control product range, it comes with a track record of secure remote control, completing all your remote control needs.
Aimed at large organizations supplying software end-user support, such as Internet service providers, telecommunications companies, ERP vendors, CRM vendors, and banks, NetOp On Demand offers end users the opportunity to download a remote control application from a dedicated website (or via links placed on an existing website) and request help from a help-desk center, when they need it. With 256-bit AES encryption and no third party servers to route traffic, the solution is very secure. NetOp On Demand is also flexible, offering the choice of multiple or single connections, and it is highly scalable, so it can grow to suit your increasing business needs.
Using NetOp On Demand is a way to maximize help-desk efficiency. It enables help-desk personnel to chat online in real-time with customers, remotely view an end user`s computer, and share their mouse and keyboard control, which all result in a timely resolution of problems and an increase in customer satisfaction.
With NetOp On Demand, no software is required to be preinstalled and/or running prior to receiving remote support and the application is automatically removed from the end user`s computer once the support session has ended, eliminating the need to maintain, upgrade, and service installed applications. End users simply temporarily download a small application to their computer from a website. The help session is initiated from the end user`s computer using HTTP running through port 80 (most firewalls will allow outbound traffic without restrictions whereas inbound traffic is completely tied down by default). The end user can disconnect the session at any time.
As Ighsaan Akoojee, NetOp Product Manager at Networks Unlimited the Africa Distributors points out,
" NetOp Remote has a legacy and history of being a best-of-breed remote control solution for the high end market, and NetOp On Demand continues to follow this strong track record, providing secure remote control and overcoming barriers faced by traditional remote support" Akoojee adds "The initial response to NetOp On Demand from the market has been astounding! - it is the kind of technology that we have been waiting for.
Networks Unlimited plan to launch NetOp on Demand at the end of this month in Cape Town (26th October 2005) and Johannesburg (27th October 2005) to register for the launch or for further information about NetOp On Demand please visit: www.nu.co.za, or call Networks Unlimited on 021 - 702 8000.
