Hybrid Remote Desktop Sharing

Read Complete Release Notes

Feature released in SummitAI Service Management (Denali SP1, Incident Management and Service Request Management)

What's New?

Earlier, the Summit Application allows the Administrators to choose either Basic Remote Desktop Sharing or Advanced Remote Desktop Sharing. If the Advanced Remote Desktop Sharing is enabled, the users are not able to use Basic Remote Desktop Sharing and vice versa. This does not provide flexibility for the Customers who want both Basic and Advanced Remote Desktop Sharing.

Now, the Administrators can enable both Basic Remote Desktop Sharing and Advanced Remote Desktop Sharing options (Refer Figure 1 and 2), and the Analysts can choose between the Basic or Advanced Remote Desktop Sharing (Refer Figure 3 and 4). For information about how to use Basic and Advanced Remote Desktop Sharing, see Remote Desktop Sharing.
