Frequently Asked Questions

Who do I call for service?

For typical service issues such as connection problems, printing issues, password changes, new users, Internet failures, etc., please contact the Help Desk at 410-527-0072 x170. You can also email them if you would like at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it .

If you would like to establish a policy for who is permitted to call the Help Desk (in order to control billable time), we can arrange that. Help Desk hours are Monday-Friday (excluding a few holidays) from about 7:30 AM-5:30 PM. If onsite labor is needed to address an issue, Help Desk will coordinate this with Choice's scheduling department.

Can Choice Technologies fix my problems remotely?

In most cases our Help Desk can fix problems remotely. This saves you time and money, and allows for quick turnaround of support calls.

How does the remote support program work?

ChoiceConnect is used by the Help Desk to solve your issues remotely. The program is accessed from our website; the user attaches to a session as directed by the Help Desk engineer. The end user can end the session at any time. The program runs without any need to configure firewalls or any additional programming. The Help Desk engineer can control the PC completely, freeing up the end user from having to work with the engineer on the phone. Once the session is complete it notifies the user that the technician has been disconnected.

What if I want to upgrade my network or current support plan?

Call 410-527-0072 and ask to talk to an account manager. We provide a free needs analysis to help point you in the right direction and answer technical questions. Your account manager's time doesn't cost you any money.

How does Choice Technologies handle night and weekend requests?

For emergency service on the weekends, please contact the emergency line at 410-527-0072 x175.  For emergency service on off hours, please contact the emergency line at 410-527-0072 x180. An on-call technician will receive the call and proceed appropriately.

Please keep in mind that these are for emergency issues only, and service calls will be billed at emergency/overtime rates.
