Why LapLink Gold?
LapLink Gold Corporate gives you the freedom to leave the office without giving up access to your
office computer and network resources. Whether you’re traveling on business or working from home, you
can still read your e-mail, share the latest files with coworkers, access network programs and databases,
browse the Internet and collaborate with colleagues. Things you once could do only in the office you can
now do remotely.
Suppose you work at home
Instead of joining the morning rush-hour traffic, you sit down
at your home computer, connect to your office, and begin
your workday as usual, by tackling your e-mail.
While finishing your orange juice, you read your messages,
write new ones, send replies—in other words, you operate
much as you would in the office. You’re using LapLink Gold.
In particular, you’re using Remote Control, one of the
LapLink Gold services, to operate your office computer from
home.
On your home monitor you see what you would have seen
had you commuted to work, and you operate your e-mail
program as you would have from the office. You can even
set up LapLink Gold to print to your home printer for those
messages you’ll review later.
Forget to get the latest copy of a file before leaving the
office? Use File Transfer, another LapLink Gold service, and
drag the file from the folder on the office network to its loca
-
tion on your hard drive at home. Since you’re updating a file
already on your home computer, the file is transferred
almost before you know it. (In fact, LapLink Gold merely
updates the file, transferring only the parts that have
changed.)
Use Remote Control to start a network application and
access the company’s huge product database. Just as you
thought, customers ordered more blue widgets last month
than during the previous two months combined! More grist
for the quarterly report you’re working on.
A final check of your e-mail confirms your suspicions. It’s off
to Chicago tomorrow for a two-day business trip.
Suppose you’re on a business trip
Settling into your hotel room, you notice the card on the
desk offering internet connectivity. That’s all you need to
know; all you have to do now is use the hotel’s internet con
-
nection to connect to the internet, then open a LapLink Gold
connection to get access to your desktop, or to others.
It’s been a busy day. You rush through your e-mail, finishing
in time to connect to a coworker’s computer. Her e-mail
sounded desperate: if you’re free before 7 o’clock this
evening, could you help with the cover art for the annual
report?
Now you’re looking at her monitor and talking to her at the
same time, using another LapLink Gold service, Voice Chat.
After some discussion, the two of you agree: make the logo
larger and reverse the colors. She’ll have a finished draft
waiting for you on the network in an hour. And then you can
download it using LapLink Gold’s File Transfer service later.
Suppose you manage IT support
Imagine that your phone rings at 11:30 at night. Your CEO is
calling, requesting that you help her get her laptop up and
