It is being used by all employees to connect from home to their onsite computer. We have a few programs that are not in the cloud and can only be accessed when onsite. So our employees connect with Zoho to their computer in the office to run and work in these programs.

Zoho Assist is currently being used only by the system administrator to provide a second option for remote assistance, in order to be able to connect simultaneously with users while they are also connected remotely and provide the needed support. Having a second option for remote assistance is essential in the case or primary remote software experiences any issues.

Zoho Assist is an effective application that allows us access to the clients' machines remotely, for the purpose of training, or even troubleshooting. Further, the application gives us the option of installing software remotely to our team members' machines, and they operate effectively. Other departments, like accounting, use the software to access different accounting databases for verification and accountability. In fact, it's possible to make payments remotely without giving out the company's credit card.

We LOVE Zoho Assist!

We use Zoho Assist to remotely access customer's machines for troubleshooting and training. We remotely access our internal workforce's machines to install company-wide software, troubleshoot general operating system malfunctions, set up printers, transfer and install files or drive them to websites/training resources, etc. Our Accounting team has even used it to remotely access a user's machine to pay for a flight, it is a great way to input company credit card information without having to give it out.

Zoho Assist is a perfect remote access software and works great!

Zoho Assist is a tool used by all company support and infrastructure teams to answer and resolve technical calls involving the corporate computer. Zoho Watch allows us to access the computer remotely to typically resolve issues involving installing and uninstalling programs and configurations of the Windows 10 operating system. It is fast and accurate.

Unbeatable option for startups and small businesses.

We use Zoho Assist in our technical support department and it addresses our main needs. Much of the available software focuses on screensharing and meetings so there aren't as many providers offering technical support focused programs that can allow the tech staff to take control of the user's device. This allows for troubleshooting that is often difficult and time consuming to walk the client through. In fact, once connected, the client can go about their day while we troubleshoot their device.

A perfect support tool to accentuate 1-on-1 help with your clients

Currently we use Zoho Assist for remoting into client desktops/machines to troubleshoot issues or questions regarding our cloud software. Our software is hosted in the cloud via a Web Browser, so support utilizes Zoho Assist to more intimately address issues without having to verbally talk a client through the question/issue. It allows our team to take over keyboard/mouse controls and view the client's machine to easily complete the tasks at hand.

Support your clients any where any time.

Looking for an alternative for support or remote help, we started to try this software and it really seemed quite complete. In many cases I have clients who have problems with their cell phones and it has been very helpful to be able to see their screen to guide them to the solution.

Solid marketing automation company.

My company has used Zoho Assist to help use gather marketing campaign data. It's just being used by the marketing department. It addresses how many clients we're reaching on a given email. The marketing department also loves how Zoho aids use by addressing the demographics we're reaching and how many CTLs there are.
