Provide complete technical assistance to all the computers on your network without ever leaving your desk. Apple Remote Desktop gives you screen-sharing and text-messaging capabilities, along with a wide range of powerful remote assistance tools.

You can also view and control the screens of any Virtual Network Computing (VNC)-enabled computer, including Windows, Linux, and UNIX. When a user needs assistance, you take control of any individual screen and view the remote desktop in full-screen mode.

Remote Drag and Drop
