How do I Set up Alerts in GoTo Resolve?
Alerts make sure that you are aware of potential issues with your devices. When an alert is triggered, admins receive an email about the issue and let the admin manage the relevant device or create a Helpdesk ticket directly from the alert.
Remember: Alerts are available for users with Free, Standard, or Premium licenses. Alerts can be set up for devices that are both Proand verified.
