RAD Service (coming soon)
Remote Assistance and Diagnostics. Using SGM’s RAD service our technicians can log into a client PC to assist the user or diagnose system problems. The RAD service is initiated by the client and requires the internet connection to be present. Because this service is client initiated the service works through firewalls. Once the session is over the agent software is automatically deleted from the users PC and there is no further access unless the client initiates a new session. RAD service can be purchased as a flat fee with a new Stealth system or on a per connection basis.

Onsite
SGM can provide Next Business Day onsite support within the Lower Mainland on Stealth systems. Onsite warranty includes RAD service which is used to predetermine the problem. Onsite warranty covers hardware and preinstalled Windows operating system only. It does not cover the client’s application software or hardware installed after purchase. An additional fee will be charged for no fault found service calls.

Managed Systems

This time can be used for general system and network maintenance and software upgrades (ie Virus and OS updates) or user training. Also included in Managed Systems is our Next Business Day onsite warranty for hardware failures and our RAD service.
