In the old days when you had a computer issue you had to pack up your system, take it to a shop and wait about a week until you finally got it back. Today, that is not the case. Things are a bit different. Now, all you do is call Ring A geek and talk to one of our friendly technicians and everything is done right over the Internet in the comfort of your home.

There are a multitude of benefits from having your system repaired online. Probably one of  the biggest reasons to do remote is to save gas. Fuel today is not cheap and the prices keep creeping up a little at a time. Once you get used to paying 3.59 the price will go up to 3.65. It will stay there until you get used to that price and then it will go up again. That is the trend with almost everything except remote computer repair. The prices for this service have actually dropped over the past several years. That is why it is such an affordable solution.

The second reason that you should use a remote company is time. Time is something that is a premium now days. The days are never long enough to get everything done that needs to be done. When you get your computer serviced by a remote company, you can continue to go about your business around the house or office while your system is being serviced.

 

The next reason is convenience. There is no unplugging, lugging or dragging. When the repair is done, there is no trying to figure out what wire goes where. Your system remains intact through the entire process. Did I mention that it is fast? You system will be ready in an hour or so instead or a week or more.

 

Privacy is a huge concern these days. When you drop your computer off at a shop, the system is out of your sight for days while a tech works on the system. You never know when prying eyes might be looking at your personal stuff or pictures. In a remote call, you can see everything that is going on all the time. You are never out of sight of your documents or pictures.

 

Some companies actually send technicians right to your house and have them do repairs on site. Not only can this be a security issue but it almost always costs more. After all, somebody has to pay for the gas that the tech used to get to your house. It is always you, the consumer, who foots the fuel bill. Besides, you do not want strangers seeing what you have around the house anyway. In this day and age, the fewer strangers that knows your business the better.

 

Remote repair is always a low cost solution because you do not have to pay for all the overhead that is involved with a shop. The owner does not have to carry inventory, maintain vehicles or pay techs to come out to your house. Those cost savings are then passed on to you, our customer. In addition we can do multiple computers all at one time.

 

In addition to all the above, your computer remains in its own environment. Sometimes trouble shooting shows that the computer is not the problem, the problem is your router or your modem and if you take your computer to shop, you will pay them 150 bucks just to tell you that your computer is fine. Once you bring the computer back home, you might find it is not connecting again because the router or network cable was the problem the entire time. A remote session can usually resolve these issues as well since we can walk you though the steps of getting your router synched back with your computer.

 

In short, remotes support is affordable, it is fast, its convenient and most of all, it protects your privacy. It is the way to go hands down.
