LogMeIn Rescue is a powerful, easy-to-use remote support solution comprising three main components: a Technician Console, a Customer Applet, and an Administration Center. 


Technician Console 
The online interface used by support Technicians to conduct remote support sessions. Technicians can initiate new sessions or respond to online customer requests waiting in a shared Queue.

Multiple simultaneous active sessions can be conducted using:
Direct connection to the Customer via PIN code or emailed link
Desktop View and Remote Control, including Whiteboard
Detailed Session History & Notes
Chat Interface with Predefined Replies, URL Push, and File Transfer
Detailed System Diagnostics, including Reboot & Reconnect
Shared Global Queue
  


Customer Applet 
With the customer's permission, this small .exe file automatically downloads to the remote PC. It's the interface through which Technicians communicate with Customers and conduct remote support. The Applet automatically removes itself from the remote PC at session conclusion.

The Applet provides remote Customers with:
Interactive Chat and detailed Session History
Prompts to permit or deny Technician access to all functions
File Transfer to the Technician
Ability to stop Remote Control or disconnect at any time
  


Administration Center 
This intuitive online interface is used by Administrators to create and assign permissions for other Administrators, Technicians, and Groups. Administrators can also create Support Channels - web-based links that automatically connect Customers to Technicians - and assign them to specific Groups.

The Administration Center allows Administrators to:
Create Technician Groups and assign permissions at a granular level
Assign Support Channels to specific Technician Groups
Enable and view reports of Technician performance
Enable and view reports of Customer satisfaction levels
