    Re: Remote Install

    I am assuming to are remoting into the customer's computer. What did you use to remote in? I have been using TeamViewer but their user licenses are expensive in my opinion. I can only think of maybe 2 or 3 times that I could not get it to work and it was more than likely the user on the other end.

    We use GotoAssist ourselves. Connectwise is one I'm looking at for next year. It is about $250 cheaper. One of the IT companies we work with uses it.

    We have not done a full install through the remote. A lot of back and forth for the customer but in these times it is not a bad idea. A lot of the speed to get it done is highly dependent on the internet speeds also.

    Re: Remote Install

    TeamViewer is by far the best known, is easy for customers to install and most likely to be accepted by IT Managers concerned about security.

    TeamViewer secretly tracks the usage from your computer. When you hit 800 minutes, you are no longer eligible for free usage.
