I’m pleased to offer a remote monitoring, maintenance and support service (RMMS). This system actively monitors the health of your Mac and if problems are detected it sends me email alerts. I’ll either remotely fix the issue and let you know that the situation has been resolved or contact you to schedule a remote support session. My remote support time is billed at my regular hourly rate.
This service is a requirement if you wish to work with me on an on-going basis.
If you’re a prospective customer, I’m happy to offer you one time before you decide if you’d like to sign-up for my RMMS service plan and work with me on an on-going basis.
Overview
The 3 primary features of my remote monitoring, maintenance and support service (RMMS) are:
Proactive Monitoring of Macintosh computers using Watchman Monitoring. This includes, but is not limited to, the monitoring of:
- backup systems
- hard drive fullness
- hard drive health
- laptop battery health
- presence of malware
Remote Support and Maintenance – I have the ability to remotely connect to your Macs, iPhones and iPads using a product named Splashtop. I can provide you with troubleshooting support or training. I’m also able to remotely fix some problems.
Inventorying – My tools allow me to produce detailed hardware and software inventories. This can be helpful when planning purchases for your home or business or if you ever need to complete a police report or insurance claim for stolen devices.
Basic Costs of RMMS
The cost covers my licensing costs and some of my time monitoring and responding to email alerts generated by this system. This cost does not include any remote support. My remote support time is billed at my regular hourly rate.
