  • • Remove access immediately after work is completed

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do you need access to my accounts?

Direct access allows us to efficiently diagnose and fix technical issues, perform maintenance tasks, and implement solutions without requiring you to relay information back and forth. This saves time and ensures accuracy.

How long will you need access?

Access duration varies by project, typically ranging from a few hours to several days. We'll provide an estimated timeline upfront and notify you immediately when access is no longer needed so you can remove it.

Is it safe to grant temporary access?

Yes, when done correctly. Our guides show you how to create limited-access accounts that can be easily removed. We recommend starting with minimal permissions and only granting additional access if needed for the specific task.

What if I'm not comfortable granting access?

That's perfectly fine! We offer alternative support methods including screen sharing sessions, guided phone support, and file transfer options. We'll work with whatever method makes you most comfortable.
