It does exactly what we require… It is simple to use and roll-out.

Colin Hayward System Manager, The Advertising Standards Authority

The London-headquartered ASA has implemented Vector PC-Duo Remote Control for helpdesk and remote support more than three years ago. The solution has continued to save time and money during this time. Recently, ASA has also implemented additional modules from both the Vector Asset and IT Service Management Solutions including Vector HelpDesk, Vector Inventory, and Vector Distribution.

“A major advantage for the team is being able to deal with problems from a remote location. I sometimes work from home in East Sussex and if there are difficulties at the office I just remote in with Vector PC-Duo Remote Control to see what the problem is and most of the time fix-it then and there.

“It does exactly what we require from a remote control product. It is simple to use and roll-out. The manuals were very easy to read and follow, which is very important. We only wish we had discovered its advanced capabilities, related to full asset management, earlier.” – Colin Hayward, System Manager, The Advertising Standards Authority
