Remote control

With Virola corporate messenger users can take over screens of other users with help of the remote control feature. If you need to help your co-worker, fix something or provide visual demonstration you can ask your co-worker to share the screen and activate the remote control. To activate the remote control you need to do the following:

• Click the "Share screen" icon
• Select the area you would like to offer the control over
• If you are in a group chat, select the user you would like to give the access to your screen
• Click "Give Remote Control" icon
• When the remote control is active, the frame around the shared area becomes pink
• To stop the remote control you need to click "Stop" icon in the remote control window toolbar

With an ability to take over other users' screens it is possible to:

• Easily fix different issues
• Provide visual demonstrations
• Train new users
• Help co-workers
