Improved privacy
Privacy and data issues are a leading concern for users. End users must give their consent before any remote support action can take place. They also have a better visual overview about what the help desk agent is doing on their devices.

Collaborated support
TeamViewer’s quick-access features such as chat and file transfer improve the exchange of information between IT and users.

HelpDesk Business Efficiency
Advanced features such as session recording and connection reports help IT departments continuously assess performance and improve the effectiveness of remote support in their business.

MaaS360 with Watson is the industry’s first and only cognitive unified endpoint management (UEM) platform, enabling a smarter approach for enterprises to manage and secure all endpoints plus their users, apps and content. MaaS360 can be used to manage disparate endpoint types—including smartphones, tablets, laptops, ruggedized devices and the Internet of Things (IoT)—all from a single console. By offering a native-like approach to containerisation, MaaS360 preserves personal privacy and protects work data without compromising the end-user experience. Its integration with TeamViewer gives MaaS360 enhanced Service Desk capabilities that will allow customer administrators to remotely access their iOS, Android, Windows and Mac devices—speeding up support and the overall user experience. To learn more about MaaS360 and TeamViewer check out the blog:https://ibm.biz/Bdi2W6.
