It enables remote users to connect and run any application on the company system. In addition, they can upload and download files, mount network drives and access local resources.
Access
Users are able to access the software in the traditional way from any machine via the browser portal. They also have the ability to pick the Uninstall on browser exit option to have the tool remove itself after the session ends. If you want to remotely access another PC, you may use an app called Radmin.
Principle of operation
