With pcTelecommute, Symantec enhances its long-standing market leadership with the first solution designed specifically for the growing telecommuting community. Work Monitor provides users with an activity log that tracks files accessed or modified, phone calls made and received, and faxes sent and received during the day. With this information, users can easily keep track of their work, or easily create a status report for their manager. Screening lets users control their interruption level and further increase their productivity by allowing them to see who is calling. This technology is available directly from the PC and utilizes their CallerID service provided by their local telephone company.
Users can also transfer files between the home and office.
This allows the company help desk to remotely support telecommuters in their organization. The fax functionality provided by pcTelecommute allows users the ability to send and receive faxes from their home desktop so that they can keep in touch with co-workers, managers, and clients, without the expense of a home fax machine. Ease of Use Capabilities pcTelecommute provides an integrated user interface for enhanced ease of use. The Telecommute Control Center is a toolbar-like interface that gives users a centralized place to access all functionality within pcTelecommute. The product includes 7x24 technical support in North America-free for 90 days.
