Help Desk Support
Help Desk Support consists of various tools, software and applications which help helpdesk to function properly. There are Help Desk Support tools available, which allow the helpdesk to “see” and control the user’s desktop remotely. This can be very helpful if a problem occurs or if one wants to demonstrate certain features. Before the Help Desk Support can control the remote desktop the user has to grant a password protected access to his/her machine. The password is transmitted to the helpdesk by phone. Once the session is finished the access is stopped again and the password becomes invalid.
Similar to Help Desk Support tools, there are other tools available which help customers and they are called Customer Support Tools. Customer Support Tools contains programs and applications that leverage customer information, and enable organizations to better serve their clients, including assisting the user in servicing customer questions or complaints or in some cases automating problem resolution.
