A remote site managing system for centrally managing computers and
peripheral devices of a customer, is provided. In the event that there is
trouble with equipment in the office to be serviced, and a customer in
the office notifies the maintenance service company of the trouble by
telephone (i.e., a center call), the remote site managing system deals
with the trouble in an appropriate manner, and dispatches maintenance
(either dispatching service personnel or commissioning the maintenance to
another service company) in a smooth manner.
