Wake Up Computer!

01 Communique Laboratory Inc. today released I'm InTouch Premium, a way to remotely access your work computer. I'm InTouch Premium allows businesses to provide employees with remote access to their workstations from anywhere, without the need to leave their computers on all the time.

One of the key new features is the Remote Wake-Up that allows users to remotely access their distant computers, even if they are not powered on. I'm InTouch automatically detects if your computer has been turned off and "wakes it up" to provide you with remote access.

The ability to remotely wake-up your computer is important to businesses that want to provide employees with remote access to workstations. Instead of leaving their computer on when leaving at night, for the weekend or for vacation, employees can shut their PCs down and still access their important files at anytime. Not only does this save on electricity; but also enhances security since there can be no unauthorized access to a shut down PC.

Studies have shown that the cost of leaving a single computer on all the time can cost more than $15.00 a month per PC. For businesses with many computers, the cost can quickly add up. Instead of leaving all your computers on, a single PC can be used to "wake-up" any computer in the office when needed, dramatically reducing an electricity bill.

I'm InTouch Premium also includes new central administration controls that allow for multiple computers to be managed and accessed from a single screen. Companies can now designate a user as the administrator of their I'm InTouch Premium account. The administrator can login to the account's administration page, which lists all the computers associated with the account and their online status. They can then access any computer with a single click to perform maintenance or provide support. From the same web page, the administrator can access the online billing system to purchase or cancel licenses, add and remove users, or suspend licenses.

New users can try out I'm InTouch Premium for 30 days free by signing up here . A subscription to the service starts at $12.95 monthly or $129.95 annually per license with group discounts available for multiple licenses.
