Splashtop Enterprise offers advanced capabilities to improve the support workflow for both individual technicians and service desk teams to deliver a better end-user experience.
Technicians can connect to any unmanaged Windows, Mac, Android, IOS or Chromebook to assist an end user at the device. There are multiple ways to establish an attended support session.
Splashtop SOS - Connect via 9-digit code
Individual technicians or small teams can use Splashtop SOS for quick ad-hoc attended sessions. The end user simply runs the SOS app and provides the technician a 9-digit code to connect.
- Direct your end user to sos.splashtop.com / sos.splashtop.eu to download the Splashtop SOS app.
- Once they run and launch the downloaded file, have them give you the 9-digit code shown in the app.
- From the Splashtop Business App, click the SOS icon and enter the 9-digit code to connect.
Here are some additional functionalities that are helpful to know for an attended session:
- Elevate Session Privilege / Connect as Admin
- Reboot and automatically reconnect
- Switch OS user account during the session
Service Desk
Helpdesk teams can use Service Desk to efficiently manage their technicians' workflows. Channels route support sessions to the appropriate technicians while the support queue allows teams to view session status, collaborate, and transfer between technicians.
The Service Desk console can be found at my.splashtop.com / my.splashtop.eu > Service Desk, or by clicking the Service Desk icon in the Business App:
IT managers can create different channels to segment technicians into groups and determine support session routing. Channels can be created based on a variety of different criteria such as technician expertise, departmental functions and more.
In addition to general channel settings, you can also assign roles and privileges to individual technicians and groups that are assigned to the channel. A technician can be assigned to multiple channels.
To create and manage channels, go to my.splashtop.com / my.splashtop.eu > Management > Channels.
