Multiple Tiers to Handling Issues
Tiers are used to describe the levels of technicians, system administrators, service engineers, and others on the IT staff. ExterNetworks can determine issues before they occur. Managing of incidents is done remotely allows highly functional network operation centers to find problems before they happen in the network. The use of a ticketing system allows for previous issues that have been resolved to be created as simulations to help prevent the same issues in the future.
