Remote Support has quite simply transformed the way we work. The benefit to customers is huge, most significantly cost saving but also incredible flexibility. We can use remote support to connect and resolve a problem within minutes.
Due to the advantages of this technology we estimate that remote support now accounts for 80% of our total workload.
Remote Support and what it means for you
Cost saving and flexibility. On average remote support saves the customer around 40% on each job. This is mainly due to the reduction in travel and associated costs.
Flexibility arises from the ability to resolve problems quickly and at anytime of the day or night. If an emergency job crops up it can be executed almost immediately and sometimes resolved within minutes. Routine maintenance can be carried out remotely outside of normal working hours, this results in minimal disruption for business clients. Please see the frequently asked questions section below for more information.
