New Bomgar iOS Customer Client Offers Expanded Remote Support Features for Apple iOS Mobile Devices
Bomgar, the worldwide leader in secure, enterprise remote support solutions, today unveiled the new Bomgar iOS Customer Client, which offers the most robust remote support capabilities available for the wildly popular iPhone® and iPad®. Bomgar now further helps support technicians remotely diagnose and fix issues on Apple® iOS devices, improving both service desk productivity and customer satisfaction.
The Bomgar solution already enables support technicians to push configuration profiles to end-users' iOS devices, automating routine support tasks such as email and Wi-Fi settings configuration. With the new Bomgar iOS Customer Client, Bomgar users will now be able to:
- Co-browse with screen sharing – See the same active screens as the end user via a web browser, allowing technicians to immediately diagnose and troubleshoot issues with web-based applications.
- Push web resources – Push URL's containing tips, knowledge articles or key status updates to more rapidly resolve the issue.
- View screen shots – View snapshots of the iPhone or iPad screen captured by the end-user to gain further insight into the problem.
- Chat with the end-user – Conduct a secure chat session on the iOS device to speed issue resolution.
"There's no denying that iPhones and iPads are leading the mobile device market. Just a couple of weeks ago, Apple presold more than a million of the newly announced iPhone 4S in under 24 hours," said Troy Harrison, VP of product management at Bomgar. "Whether they're personally or company owned, these devices are ending up in the workplace, spurring more and more calls to the help desk for iOS support. By expanding our iOS remote support capabilities to enable technicians to remotely assist the end-user, we're greatly increasing their ability to correctly diagnose and fix issues. This not only saves the support technician time, it also eliminates the need for users to bring their devices into the support center, keeping employees and customers productive and happy."
The Bomgar iOS Customer Client works with current versions of the iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch. For more information, product availability details, or to watch a video demo, please visit: www.bomgar.com/iOS.
