We are proud to announce the release of the Rescue Calling Card for macOS, a feature that historically has only been available to our Windows-based customers.

The Calling Card lets end users quickly and easily initiate a pin or channel-based support session from a desktop shortcut using a pre-installed component. This feature provides for a faster, smoother session initiation experience, as the user does not need to navigate to a pin entry site to download the applet. With Channel based sessions, users can even enter information about the problem as well as their contact or any other information into the custom fields - reducing the need for the Technician to gather additional information. The Calling Card is also brandable and customers can add their own logos and labels to make it feel like a natural extension to their existing tools.

Unattended MSI Wizard
