I’m InTouch GoMail Now Supports Foreign Languages and Emojis

With the ever expanding global nature of the computing industry a new version of I’m InTouch (v9.6) has been released to support Foreign Languages and Emoji when users are using our free I’m InTouch GoMail app to remotely manage their Outlook emails on their computers from a mobile device:

1) Compose emails in any language
2) Compose emails using emoji characters
3) Read emails in different languages and emoji on your mobile device
4) Attach files on your computer that have file names in different languages
5) Save inbound attachments that have file names in different languages onto your computer’s local/network drives

Why do I need GoMail if I already have a built-in Mail app on my device?

I’m InTouch GoMail is a revolutionary app that can mobilize your Outlook.  It has the following killer features that your built-in Mail app lacks:

  1. Compose emails with attachments from your computer’s local/network drives
  2. Save inbound attachments onto your computer’s local/network drives
  3. Notifications for emails received from selected senders or you can opt for “All”

If you have an office environment whereby your Exchange server is managed by a service provider (e.g. your Outlook is a POP/SMTP client or Exchange Online client), you will have the following additional advantages by using I’m InTouch GoMail:

  1. Everything you compose remotely using I’m InTouch GoMail will automatically be recorded in your Outlook’s Sent Items.  No more synchronization is necessary.
  2. You can have greater security and privacy by keeping all your emails on your Outlook instead of leaving them on your provider’s server for mobile access.
  3. You do not need to pay your provider any email storage fee.

The Ultimate Mobile Email!!

Available for free from Apple AppStore and Google Play, I’m InTouch GoMail is an app that mobilizes your Outlook and lets you keep all your inbound and outbound emails securely on your own computer.

This means from your mobile device you can insert attachments from your computer or save inbound attachments onto your computer without having to leave them on any third party’s cloud storage. Hence, it maximizes data security/privacy with no third party storage fee.

Since I’m InTouch GoMail actually remote controls your Outlook at the office computer to read and send emails, no attachment files or emails are stored on your mobile device.  This not only saves a lot of data usage but also being ultimately secure because nothing is compromised even if your mobile device is stolen.

With a smart notification feature, you can configure your I’m InTouch GoMail to receive real-time alerts at your mobile device when emails from certain pre-defined senders arrive at your Outlook.  This means no more alert on unimportant or junk mails.

Why Do Technical Support Remotely?

support

Customers’ problems relating to computers or applications can now be solved by a remote technician or agent instantly in a cost-effective way.  Remote support means accessing your client’s computer remotely to do system modifications, updates or fixes.  Of course, it requires certain skills and tools, such as I’m OnCall.  I’m OnCall is a secure online help desk software which allows organizations to offer remote support over the Internet to their customers.

Why remote support is an appealing alternative to traditional on-site support?

-          Going on site requires too much travelling time.

-          Going on site is too expensive.

-          A fix needs to be done in minutes, not hours.

-          Reduces the support response time which will reduce customers’ down time.

-          Allows you to support more customers located in different geographical area

-          Customers’ premises may not be readily accessible (security policy, night time, etc.).

-          Technicians can provide remote support from their mobile devices.

I’m OnCall lets you setup a temporary connection to your customer’s computer without any pre-installed software. You can quickly and efficiently resolve your customers’ technical and IT support issues by remotely controlling their computers.  Plus, your agents can login from anywhere in the world to support your customers, saving you time and travelling cost.

Do you know you can provide world-class Live-Chat support to your customers within minutes?  I’m OnCall gives you private URLs for embedding onto your web site.  Simply implement a Live-Chat button with the given URL on your web site, your customers can then request to chat with an agent easily.  Each agent can have up to 10 simultaneous chat sessions to deal with volumes at peak times.  With its low cost shareable licensing plan and versatile features, I’m OnCall provides you with an ideal tool to offer remote support to your customers.

The “Phone-Only” option allows moderators to conduct just phone conferences without using the computer exactly the same as the conference lines offered by telephone companies.

I’m OnCall Free vs Paid

I’m OnCall is a cost-effective, secure online help desk software which allows organizations to offer remote support over the Internet to their customers. The two flavours of I’m OnCall are the free version and the paid version. So what is the difference between the two?

Free Version Features:

Remote Control

 

Paid Subscription Features:

Remote Control – As a support agent, nothing is more effective than temporarily taking remote control of your customers’ computers to resolve their technical issues. In addition to controlling the screen you may also do remote file transfer.

Live Chat –  This essentially can eliminate your customer service phone lines. Your customers can submit live chat requests through a queue (clicking the Live-Chat button on your web site embedded with an URL given to you by I’m OnCall). Your agents simply pick up requests and perform real-time live chat with the customers via the Internet. Your customers may leave call-back requests if the queue is busy.

Simultaneous Live Chat session – Agents can chat with many customers at the same time.

File transfer – Provides the interface to transfer files and folders between your local computer and the customer you are supporting (the Remote Computer).  Select the file(s) or folder(s) you wish to transfer from either the Local or Remote Computer window pane by selecting the file(s) or folder(s) icon, and then drag and drop to the appropriate folder of either the Local or Remote Computer. You can select one or more files in the same folder.  You can also delete file(s) and folder(s) or create new folders on either of the two computers.

Branding (banner, photo, etc.) -A wide range of customization options including customizing your banner, agents’ photos, etc. on the support session page are available in I’m OnCall.

End-of-session survey – At your option, I’m OnCall can conduct a Customer Satisfaction Survey for you after each Live-Chat session.  Information such as speed, knowledge, politeness, communication, effectiveness, and whether issues have been resolved can be collected.  You can effectively use these statistics to measure performance of your agents.

Detailed support log and history – Under the History tab, you can view all your closed Incidents or establish some search criteria. Create your search criteria and click “Search”.  All filtered records will be displayed. This is very useful when you need to create reports on the remote control activity services that you have provided to a particular customer.

Shareable license – All you will be paying is a low monthly/annual connection license fee. There is no limit on the number of agents you can set up to share the licenses as long as the simultaneous connections do not exceed the number of licenses subscribed.

Central administration – After logging into your I’m OnCall account you will see the Menu tabs located at the top of each screen. The menu tabs allow you to navigate I’m OnCall easily and are presented based on your assigned user privileges. This gives you a centralized view of all the settings and features of I`m OnCall.

 

In summary, the free version benefits those who want a quick basic remote control session, with any details or added features. But for those who require more features with detailed tracking and then the paid version is the way to go. Either way, I`m OnCall provides an excellent support solution for any level of user.

Can Remote Access Benefit Your Business?

Remote desktop is one revolutionary service which has changed the whole computing industry. It allows users to access their computers anywhere and anytime through the internet. This has facilitated companies to enhance the productivity of their work force dramatically.

Which issues should managers consider when implementing this technology for their business?
1. Technology Issues:
Sometimes, there are several security and firewall configurations required to give access to employees working from home. Then there is the cost of VPNs which can get high depending on the number of remote workers. With I’m InTouch, there are no hardware compatibility issues or gateway/firewall settings that need special configuration. Simply install it on the employees’ host PCs and all they need is a browser to access our simple web interface. And with our 3 layers of authentication and encryption standards, security is not an issue. Also there is a huge cost saving when using I’m InTouch versus a VPN, again saving the business money.

2. Business Issues:
The more employees a business has, the larger the office space it requires. By having them work from home, the office space does not need to be as large and money can be saved. Moreover, I’m InTouch allows employees to remain productive while travelling. It avoids confidential or sensitive data to be taken out of the company since there is no need to copy data onto a laptop or USB drive anymore. Employees can access any file, any data on their office PCs anytime. Everything remains in the office premises. Data loss when your laptop is being stolen will no longer happen.

 
In summary, when looking at the high costs of having remote workers with VPN connections, I’m InTouch makes much more sense to a business. It really saves a lot of hassles and money for your business when implementing a remote workforce.

Features

Shareable Licenses – You can create an unlimited number of web conferencing users under your account even you have only 1 subscribed license.

Real-time Screen Sharing – You can host live online meetings, share your desktop screen with all your attendees and allow them to collaborate – all in real-time. Powerful tools such as attendees list, real time chat window, attendees invitation controls, pause/re-start screen sharing, etc. are just clicks away.

Whiteboard (Annotation) -The moderator and attendees can draw on the moderator’s screen with different color of annotations to identify their ideas. In other words, an attendee can easily point something out on the screen to draw emphasis on certain discussion point.

Attendees’ Access Rights Control – The moderator can control each attendee’s access rights before or during an online meeting session (e.g. assign or revoke a web conferencing attendee the ability to control the moderator’s screen).

File Transfer – The moderator and attendees can exchange files during an online meeting, online seminar, online training, etc. regardless of the file type or size. This means that you will not have the same issue of what files you can or cannot send as with email systems.

Remote Printing – An attendee can print from the moderator’s computer to his/her computer during an online meeting, online seminar, online training, etc. There is no setup or configuration required. Your attendees simply need to click Print and the document will be printed to their local printers.

Text and Audio Chat (VoIP) -The moderator and attendees can exchange ideas via a common chat window that supports both text and voice (online conference call).
