TeamViewer is widely considered to be one of the simplest and most secure ways to remotely connect multiple workstations for remote viewing and IT support. In addition, TeamViewer is free for personal use, making it the perfect solution for your technical support needs.
TeamViewer Unattended Access
TeamViewer allows PayGo IT to remotely access your computer whenever you need assistance, even if you’re not there. With unattended access, TeamViewer starts when your computer does, which means that if a problem arises PayGo IT can fix it even if you’re not there.
