Bomgar Remote Support via iPad

Summary

CBS Support can use remote support to remotely connect to a site's iPad via Bomgar. This allows support technicians to view the customer's screen and watch the actions of the user in real time to help them resolve issues.

Support will generate a session key in Bomgar and provide it to the site customer to enable remote support.
