Recommended Use Cases

System Administration

Use RDP for full desktop control when performing complex system configurations, software installations, or troubleshooting that requires GUI access.

System Administration

RDP gives you a full GUI desktop — ideal for complex configs, software installs, and any task where point-and-click access is essential.

Help Desk Support

Utilize VNC for user support sessions where you need to demonstrate procedures, troubleshoot user issues, or provide guided assistance.

Help Desk Support

VNC lets you see exactly what the user sees. Observe, guide, or take control — with encrypted tunnels keeping every session secure.

Automation & Scripting

Leverage WinRM for executing PowerShell scripts across multiple systems, gathering inventory data, or performing bulk administrative tasks.

Automation & Scripting

WinRM is the backbone of ServerEngine automation — run PowerShell across your entire fleet in parallel with full output tracking and error handling.

Secure Remote Access

Employ SSH for secure command-line access, especially in restricted environments or when working with mixed Windows/Linux infrastructures.

Secure Remote Access

SSH gives you lightweight, encrypted shell access — perfect for mixed Windows/Linux environments or anywhere a minimal footprint matters.
