Hello, everyone!
We're back with another tip for the members of Zoho Community. In our previous post, we discussed the ways to start a session. This week, we'll explain how to invite customers to a remote support session.
Once you've started a session, you'll see the screen below, which includes a unique session ID, a join link, and buttons to invite another user via email and SMS.
You can choose either one of these methods to invite another user to join the session. Once that person joins the session, you can take control of the remote device to identify and resolve technical issues in real time.
Here's a detailed guidance inviting users to join remote support sessions.
This flexibility allows technicians to connect with customers and access remote devices seamlessly. The Zoho Community team is committed to empowering users with practical insights and tools to enhance customer satisfaction and make technical support more efficient. Stay tuned for more helpful tips and updates!

Count the NUMBER of Contacts for an Account automatically
Hello. Is there any way Zoho can count the number of CONTACTS for a particular ACCOUNT and have a field in the ACCOUNT module update itself automatically? Currently we use Zoho to administer our language school and the Contacts represent students and Accounts represent Grupos (Classes). It would be very useful for us to have a feature like this enabled, and I can see other similar applications requiring something like this. The solution would be even better if the Contacts met a specified criteria,

Sharing Knowledge Base articles across multiple departments
It would be useful to share some Knowledge Base articles across multiple departments where they are applicable, rather than having to go into other departments to find the article you're looking for. For example. Our reception uses the 'Admin' desk whereas our IT guys use the 'Support' desk, however both divisions would find KB articles about our company intranet useful. Reception does not have access to the support desk, so cannot see articles created in the Support KB. Perhaps you could install
Contacts marked as Spam are shown as Contacts in tickets.

Is there a way to request a password?
We add customers info into the vaults and I wanted to see if we could do some sort of "file request" like how dropbox offers with files. It would be awesome if a customer could go to a link and input a "title, username, password, url" all securely and it then shows up in our team vault or something. Not sure if that is safe, but it's the best I can think of to be semi scalable and obviously better than sending emails. I am open to another idea, just thought this would be a great feature. Thanks,
