Mike Dixon
IT Administrator, Schneider & Associates
Company goal
The goal of the company is to provide sound insurance advice to all of their clients. They want to help them to protect as many aspects of their lives for the best rates as possible. Representing over 50 highly respected insurance companies they want to go the extra mile to serve a client’s needs as things change in their life/business.
Challenge
Mike Dixon, IT Administrator for Schneider & Associates, had two major issues when it came to his IT network. Firstly, he is the only IT person working for the company which means he has a lot of tasks to complete on a daily basis just to keep systems updated and well maintained. Secondly, is that he suffers from Multiple Sclerosis which means that there are periods where he is unable to make it into the office so there was a necessity to have a monitoring solution that would have a good remote aspect to it to help him during those times.
Solve IT issues from anywhere
Pulseway’s Remote Desktop solution gives you the ability to remote into a client’s system as if you were right in front of it. The customer can allow access and immediately show the engineer the issue without the need for a long complicated explanation. This allows both parties to save time and allows Deskk to showcase the value of their services resolving issues in a timely manner.
Non-intrusive remote support
When Mike needs to provide remote support for one of his users he is able to do it quickly and efficiently as his users can’t afford a long down-time with their machines. “I’ve noticed that if I can get in there and repair a problem and get them back up and running as quickly as possible it works great! They are pretty flexible as they know their system isn’t going to be down for hours. A lot of the time I don’t even need to remote in so it is a big concern for my users that the issue is resolved in an efficient manner. They are always sending appreciative text messages when they can get back to working with their clients as quickly as possible.”
The Result
After having used the software for over 2 years, Mike is very happy working with Pulseway to ensure that the company’s critical machines are always operational. “It has made my job a lot easier being the only IT person and with the physical limitations that I have and the owner of the company is really happy with it and the problems that it is solving. Considering I had done so much research on remote monitoring and management software I was initially skeptical but willing to give it a try. The more I began to use it and the more I talked to the support team all of my doubts just kind of went away as I was able to see all the problems I could solve with it. I tell some of my friends about it and let them know they should definitely check Pulseway out.”
