HelpDesk Augmentation and Support Services

A helpdesk is equipped to support day-to-day user needs but is typically unable to support the entire user population calling in at the same time. A company-wide password reset effort is required as a response measure to almost every incident. Our team of experienced helpdesk technicians can be incorporated into your existing help desk process at scale to assist with guiding users through any tasks required of them during an incident.
