Exciting new adventures with Away From My Desk!

A fresh new website, an easier login, and features shaped by your feedback.

Welcome to our new website! We’ve been busy behind the scenes making changes designed to make your life easier – and to give us a proper home for sharing news, ideas and the many clever ways people are using Away From My Desk. If you’ve got a use of your own you’d like to shout about, tell us and we’ll happily feature it.

The biggest change is to the login system. It’s built to get you in first time, more often, with handy new touches like being able to see at a glance when a machine is in use or offline. We’re listening closely to your feedback too – so if you’d rather your session didn’t time out after 30 minutes while you’re working somewhere safe like home, you can now switch that off with the tick box at the top right of the computer list page. There’s plenty more to come, all guided by your suggestions. Thank you for being part of the journey – we love helping you do what you do best, from anywhere, anytime.

The new website brings more possibilities to you. Firstly, we can bring you our latest news and share how others use our system to bring you new ideas. If you have something you would like to share, something you use Away From My Desk for that you don’t think others would, then please let us know and we can feature it on our site!

Secondly, and most importantly, the log in system has changed. This has the biggest impact on how you log in but should mean you log in successfully more often, which is great news! There are some new features built in which make it easier to see when a machine is in use or offline making the system easier to use.

 

We have had some great responses to the site so far, many of you love it and are finding it easier to use. Some have had some teething issues, most notably forgotten user details and some great suggestions!

 

We are listening to all of your feedback and implementing it as soon as possible where we can. You may notice that your session ‘times out’ after 30 minutes of inactivity and some customers have asked for this to be optional, especially when working from a safe environment such as home. We have added the function for to disable this feature, just use the tick box in the top right corner of the computer list page when you log in.

 

The new site allows us to develop our software more behind the scenes, we have had some great suggestions for what features people require and will be working through our list to see what we can add for future updates.

Additionally, you may have seen we now have some new social media accounts, please join us on Facebook, Twitter or LinkedIn to follow our latest updates.

 

We are excited about the future and want to thank you for joining us on this journey. We love supporting you to be able to ‘do what you do best from anywhere, anytime!
