DOWNLOA Ten ways to make desktop visits more effective

By Bill Detwiler Editor ·
Visiting a customer?s workplace represents a considerable investment in time and resources. As field engineers, we must take great care to derive the maximum value from these each visit and make certain our time and the customer's time isn't spent in vain. From personal experience, Jeff Dray, TechRepublic contributor and field engineer, has compiled a list of ten techniques and routine tasks he performs whenever a support call takes him to an external location. It isn?t always possible to avoid a return visit, but hopefully these methods will keep them to a minimum.

Download and read Jeff's list:

A simple and sensible alternative

Doesn't it make more sense to use a "Portable (internet) Desktop". While it is currently available at goGui.com and focuses on an introductory offering, online applications which are fast, interactive and versatile are the next step. This makes more sense to me since licensing and office suit which doesn't have to be installed or licensed "per computer" would be a welcome change. Moreover, servicing desktops (portable) would be a simple tasks since the nuts and bolts (and property sheets) are located on a central server.
