Research Triangle Park, NC (March 23, 2010) -- Elsinore Technologies, developer of the IssueNet suite, announces the release of ScreenConnect version 1.6, marking its first year in the remote support market.
ScreenConnect is a self-hosted remote support solution compatible with clients using Mac, PC, and Linux systems. The software owner installs ScreenConnect on his or her PC or server, thus allowing full control over the configuration, security settings, and end user experience. “It’s a different perspective on a market that has been traditionally dominated by suppliers like LogMeIn or Webex,” says Jeff Bishop, Business Development Manager for Elsinore. “ScreenConnect can save companies hundreds, thousands, or tens of thousands of dollars a year in monthly remote support license charges, and in this economy, organizations of all sizes can benefit from that.”
Version 1.6 marks the one year anniversary in the remote support industry for ScreenConnect. Originally the IssueNet support team developed ScreenConnect to handle the diverse client PC configurations they encountered. “We wanted a solution that we could integrate and tweak as needed to improve our customer support, but there just wasn’t anything on the market that fit our needs,” Bishop adds.
From IT consultants to accountants, many organizations are finding value in a self-hosted remote support solution. What are the primary reasons for the product success? Jakes Morgan, CTO, chimes in, “It just works; that is sort of our product mantra and the driving factor behind our development. We want our customers to be confident that when they start a session with a client, they will be able to connect regardless of the end users’ configuration. Our customers don’t need to explain where to download some software, how to open a port, or walk their customers through changing security settings. They just start a session and it works.”
ScreenConnect’s extensive list of features includes session recording, chat, file transfer, multiple monitor support, remote reboot, and UAC support.
