Accessing Tech Support & the System Guide

Remote Support Using Fast Support

NECS now offers an easy way for you to get support for our products. A member of the NECS Tech Support team will direct you to the Fast Support website to allow remote access to your computer using *GoToAssist.

 

In one click the NECS Tech Support team can start a live remote support session and connect to your computer or server on-the-fly. The GoToAssist Customer desktop application is downloaded onto your computer to enable the Tech Support team to connect to them via attended support sessions

 

Attended Support: When customers join attended support sessions with a team member, the GoToAssist Customer desktop application is temporarily downloaded onto their computer and a GoToAssist Customer toolbar appears. During the session customers can use the toolbar options to interact with the team member(s), as well as join subsequent support sessions. There are a few ways for you to gain access to Fast Support and GoToAssist, via an email from a team member or as a direct login in to the website. These options are discussed below.

entrée V3 System Guide PDF

An Adobe PDF is provided for your convenience in our website. The entrée V3 System Guide is over 1,000 pages in length and printing the entire guide is not recommended.

 

Chances are not every member of your staff will require training on all of the various capabilities of entrée, and the PDF format will allow you to pick and choose appropriate topics to print locally and distribute to various employees. Adobe Reader (included) is required to open and read the PDF file and may be obtained for free via the internet using the link below.

 

Please download and update the Adobe Reader software before you proceed by using this link.

 

1.  In your browser go to the www.necs.com website and click the Support drop down menu.

2.  Click and use the Customer Login to enter the secure area of the website. In this area release upgrades are posted along with links to other support services and documentation.

The entrée V3 System Guide is very extensive, printing its entire contents is not recommended. Chances are not every member of your staff will require training on all of the various capabilities of entrée, and the PDF format will allow you to pick and choose appropriate topics to distribute to various employees.

 

Although it is possible to print from within the help system of the program, due to the poor formatting results this is also not recommended. NECS suggests printing from within Adobe Reader for optimal results.
