  • Fast and secure remote control

    Included within the solution is Dameware Mini Remote Control, which offers multi-platform remote access to Windows, Linux, and Mac OS X computers, laptops, and servers from a single admin console.

  • Anywhere, anytime remote assistance

    IT issues know no bounds, so why should the ability to troubleshoot IT issues only be reserved for machines on the network?

    Initiate secure over-the-Internet remote connection with computers inside the LAN and over the internet.

  • Simplify Windows administration

    IT admins have enough on their plates without having to make house calls for IT troubleshooting.

    Use remote access to reboot systems, start/stop services and processes, copy/delete files, view and clear event logs, and more.

  • Built-in remote admin tools

    As if IT issues weren’t bad enough, a total halt to productivity to resolve them might not be necessary with the right tools.

    Offers system tools and TCP utilities to remotely troubleshoot computers without having to launch a full remote control session.

    IT admins are constantly on the go. Give them the tools they need to do their job effectively, no matter where they are.

    Use the Dameware mobile app to remotely access network computers from mobile devices.

  • Remotely manage Active Directory environments

    Wouldn’t it be nice to be able to control who has access and who does not, and help the CEO gain access when he forgets his password?

    Manage multiple AD domains, groups, and users. Remotely unlock user accounts, reset passwords, and edit Group Policy.

  • Export AD objects and system configs from remote computers

    Knowing how a group of computers is configured, and what software is actually being employed, could help you get to the bottom of some of your most troubling questions.

    Easily export AD properties, system configurations, and software information in .CSV or .XML formats.

  • Centralized license and user account management

    Going through disparate systems to manage accounts can be a major burden.

    Centrally manage your Dameware environment, user accounts and permissions, and simplify Dameware license management globally.

  • Multi-factor authentication

    Whether your security protocols or compliance initiatives require it, keeping your remote support system secure is a must. There is simply too much to lose.

    Enforce two-factor authentication in security sensitive environments using Smart Card logon and authentication.

  • Remote access to sleeping and powered-off computers

    Don’t let non-responsive machines keep you from resolving IT issues.

    Remotely connect to out-of-band computers with Intel® vPro™ with AMT, Wake on LAN, and KVM support.

  • Automate ticketing management

    Manually managing service requests without help desk ticketing software can be a tedious process that’s also prone to error.

    Automate service request management through ticket creation, assignment, routing, and escalation.

  • Centralize your knowledge management

    Don’t waste time responding to repetitive, run-of-the-mill questions.

    Leverage a built-in help desk knowledge base to create and maintain KB articles and promote end-user self-service for common issues.

    Breaching your SLA could spell disaster for your business.

    Set up “SLA breach approaching” notifications and date-specific SLA reminder alerts. Customize escalation and de-escalation workflows.

    Issues involving multiple tickets should be managed in lockstep to avoid chaos.

    Link service requests to each other to track and manage IT projects involving multiple tasks, regardless of type.

    Configure automated feedback surveys for end-users upon completion of service request.

  • Integrate with 3rd-party tools for IT asset management

    The hardware, software, and other IT assets supporting your business are ever expanding. How will you keep up?

    Employ out-of-the-box integration with JAMF Casper Suite, Absolute Manage, Microsoft SCCM, and SMS.

    Manually generating tickets takes time away from the real problem at hand - resolving end-user issues.

    Use IMAP, POP, and Exchange protocols to automatically convert service request emails to help desk tickets.

  • FIPS 140-2 compatibility and security

    Simplify IT asset management with built-in asset discovery, inventory management, and reporting.

    Checks and balances makes service management feasible.

    Regulate and manage change requests through automated approval workflows and panel voting options.
