What is Arakÿta ÿDesk?
ÿDesk provides technical support via phone and online chat for computer software, hardware/peripherals, connectivity and networking issues for many common brands of computers, tablets and smartphones. No more trying to decide which software or hardware vendor to contact for support, or wasting hours trying to research answers to technical computing problems that distract from your business. Just show our technicians your problem and, with your permission, our certified technicians can temporarily access your computer to remotely diagnose and resolve issues in a highly secure support session. Arakÿta knows you need technical expertise for your whole office – so we provide certified professionals who are proficient in supporting a wide variety of products using operating systems from Microsoft, Apple and Android. You can even get help with many common sync and file sharing issues with tablets and smartphones! We can also assist with issues that sometimes occur while trying to sync files between devices, or across operating system platforms. This way, you keep your focus on running your business and don’t get distracted with technical issues.
What is ‘Online Support’ or ‘Remote Support’?
Online computer and technical support, also known as “remote support”, allows our certified ÿDesk agents to remotely view your computer screen and securely fix many typical problems with computers and networks, as well as other supported mobile devices.
Technical support is made easier by allowing you to simply show our ÿDesk technicians where you want help. This type of remote support works through desktop sharing technology. When you log into our secure online ÿDesk, you can allow our certified technology experts to view and interact with your computer remotely via the Internet – fixing problems and setting up new technology fast. Sometimes, it feels like watching your computer fix itself!
The security of your business matters to Arakÿta – so we make sure you control your remote support session. Our ÿDesk agents can only temporarily access your computer, only with your permission, and only during your secure internet session. At all times you will be able to see and monitor your technical support session.
