Also new to HelpDesk, technicians can now provide remote support for customers’ mobile specific issues, letting them remotely control or troubleshoot their iOS or Android device from any web browser, PC, Mac, iOS orAndroid device.
RemotePC HelpDesk can be integrated into four popular support platforms including Zendesk Support, Freshdesk Support, Freshservice Support, and JIRA Support.

As far as security goes, remote sessions are initiated using TLS v 1.2/AES 256 encryption. Customers can end the session at any time. The service also utilizes Auto-Kill software, so once
the remote support session is terminated, the software installed will automatically be deleted from the customer’s device.
