Remote Administration

When looking to source a remote administration software solution, there are a number of more modern features that really make the difference. These features allow you, as an administrator, to save time, reduce energy costs and even track IT assets, by automating tasks, and administrating any of your IT resources, at any time, from any place.

Automated Tasks

Remote administration software that allows you to automate tasks or jobs will very quickly and effectively save time. Administration tasks can be automated over as many computers or servers as required, and even segmented into individual, group or global levels, to ensure flexibility. These jobs can be configured to run once, run on demand or to run automatically on a schedule.

Remote Control

The ability to remotely control a networked device is a must have in any remote administration scenario. This provides your administrators with the ability to remotely control any computer, provided it is connected to the internet. Privacy tools should be included as standard, and all communications should be encrypted.

Multiple Sessions

By presenting your administrator with the ability to handle concurrent problems affecting different users’ computers simultaneously, from his own workstation, desk-side and off-site calls can be dramatically reduced. This in turn leads to a reduction in resource costs, human, energy and otherwise.

Remote Power Control

A more advanced remote administration tool is the ability to remotely power down, restart or power on a device. Servers and workstations can be shut down on schedule to reduce your energy costs, or on demand when required. Also, provided the devices have the Wake-On-LAN feature, they can be configured to start automatically or on demand also.

Online Inventory

A time consuming task that haunts any IT administration team is keeping an up to date inventory of all devices on their network. This job can be cut down considerably by using a remote administration tool to compile the inventory instead. Hardware (including: CPU type, hard disk capacity/usage, RAM capacity/usage, etc) software (ensuring that all necessary and authorised pieces of software are installed) and Services, Patches and Hotfixes can all be monitored and administrated remotely.
