Optanik gives you unattended remote access to every computer that runs the agent, straight from the browser. Nobody has to be at the computer to accept the session.
Open a remote session from Optanik Workspaces or Endpoints
Every computer's row on Workspaces and Endpoints has actions on the right: take remote control of its screen, open a PowerShell or SSH session, restart or update the agent, turn its alerts on or off, or remove it. Search finds a computer by its name, its user or its notes.
Use the Optanik device page
Click a computer's name to open its page. Overview shows live CPU, memory, disk and network graphs with a live picture of its screen. From the top of the page you can turn on auto login after reboot, so it signs back in on its own after a restart, or update its agent. The tabs show its hardware, installed software, patches, BitLocker key, deployed printers and drives, configuration policies and linked tickets.
Save a VDI desktop or a URL in Optanik
Add New → New VDI saves a computer as a desktop card, so anyone with access can open its whole desktop in a browser tab. Tick the terminal option to open SSH (macOS and Linux) or PowerShell (Windows) instead. Linux servers without a screen are SSH only.
Add New → New URL saves a website as a card. Choose a device, and the site opens through that computer's own network, which is ideal for router pages, printers and internal tools that aren't on the internet. Choose No Proxy to open it as a normal link.
Help someone outside Optanik with Remote Assist
Remote Assist is for a customer or a new hire whose computer isn't enrolled yet. They run a small portable app and read you the ID and one-time password it shows. Type them in and press Connect. The download link to send them is on the same page.
Give a contractor access to only some computers
In Group Objects, Share group gives someone outside your workspace remote access to only that group's computers, without making them a full user.
