*

Troubleshooting and Support:

Technicians can see the user[SQ]s screen, diagnose problems, and provide assistance by taking control of the mouse and keyboard.
*

Remote Administration:

IT staff can perform administrative tasks on numerous computers remotely, such as installing software, configuring settings, or running diagnostics.

The control is typically initiated by the technician, often after the user has granted permission.

The software also often includes features like chat, file transfer, and remote command execution to assist with remote support.
