Bomgar vs MS Teams
With an entire year of Work from Home (WFH) for much of campus, IT support staff have had to explore how to provide remote support to systems.
This seminar will explore some of the lessons learned in providing Remote Help to devices. And then focus on two of the tools available for us to see what our users are seeing.
Will Lewis will provide an overview of Bomgar (BeyondTrust) as a tool for in-depth support and troubleshooting.
Stephen Markan will provide an overview of Teams for use as a triage tool for better understanding what someone is describing.
