W is for Web Access

NCH Software ABCs Series

Web Access is a feature of freedom. Using the web access feature on many of our business software programs including Express Invoice invoicing software, Express Accounts bookkeeping software or Inventoria inventory management software allows businesses to provide multiple users with access to the program's data and features. Users can log in remotely from other computers or mobile devices with internet access. So you can update inventory levels from the warehouse or send an invoice while on road. So you don't need to be chained to your desk to get things done, a freedom many small business owners can appreciate.

Web access isn't limited to business products; with DesktopNow you can also set up easy access to your home PC computer so you can have access to all your files, plus desktop viewing and control, when you are away from home. So you don't have to worry about forgetting a file on a flash drive, if you don't have something you need you can simply log into your computer from wherever you are to upload or download files from your home machine. Peace of mind coming in the shape of a small software program.

Remote Desktop Viewing and Control

DesktopNow Remote Computer Access Software was first released back in December, giving you a free and easy way to access files on your home or work computer from remote locations. Recent upgrades have DesktopNow growing into its name, providing remote desktop access and control through a browser, as well as the simple file sharing provided in the first release.

Being able to access your desktop remotely essentially means you can control your computer when you aren’t there. Why might you want to do this? You can start, end, or restart programs that are running. Check a program’s status while you are away. Or maybe you act as your family’s computer support department—DesktopNow will allow you to access their computers without you physically being there. Imagine all the time you can save if you can move Grandma’s mouse to the recycle bin without having to describe how to find it over the phone.

Use the web controls to access your desktop no matter where you are, whether you are on another computer or a mobile device. Log into your computer over the Internet using any web browser for fast, easy, and secure access to all your important files. You never need to worry about not having a file you need with you again.

New Remote Computer Access Software

DesktopNow is a newly released, free program for remotely accessing your computer. After you install DesktopNow, you can select which folders you want access to. Then, when you are away from your computer, no matter where you are or which computer or device you use, log in to your computer using any web browser. You’ll have fast, easy, and secure access to all your important files.

Having DesktopNow means you never need to worry about not having that file you need. You’ll always be able to log in to your computer to upload, access or retrieve files.

And this first release of DesktopNow Remote Computer Access Software is just the beginning. Future releases will include additional features for controlling your computer and desktop from remote locations in addition to the current file management features.
