SmartCode VNC Manager (Enterprise Edition) for Windows

User Reviews

• great dashboard

  alin_deromApril 23, 2010

  Pros

  Unlike nmost multiple-VNC dashboard this one has real-time, little CPU consuming capabilities. Easy to confirm lots of possibilitys. A must have for anyone supervising several systems

  Cons

  Biggest con : not the possibility to configure the program so that most higly invasive actions (shutdown remote system) are blocked. So only to be used by qulified personnel

  Summary

  As mentionned above a great program for a (according to me) more than fair price. Although I don't have Hyper-V systems i can tlell that ifit works as fine as the VNC monitoring, that this is a thrill. Like the name says "VNC manager". It is a VNC program and a manager program. So you can not only see different systems in real time thumbnails or fullscreen modes, but you can also uinteract on the system, and even perform non-VNC related actions like autodiscovery, reboot (watch out!), mange remote tasks, ect... Try it and you'll love it

• Would be great... if it worked

  August 7, 2008

  Pros

  I like all the features it offers, in theory, but none of them actually work on our network.

  Cons

  This program has some major problems with WMI. If your WMI interfaces on your network have any kind of permissions issues, it won't be able to deply VNC or run remote commands. I wasted my time with their tech support who, after several emails told me basically that I was out of luck because my WMI was broken. They had no solutions.<p>Waste of money IMO.<p>Get mRemote and save the cash.

• This is a fantastic package.

  cmimemphisAugust 16, 2007

  Pros

  After setting this up on my workstation, I was able to then reach out to every other workstation on the LAN (and 3 other cities via our VPN), uninstall the old version of VNC, install the package of my choice (TightVNC), pass along any changes to the registry I wanted made, configure the clients exactly how I wanted.... and I sat back and let it do all of this automatically - what would have taken me DAYS to do across our network. I removed the icon for the VNC server (so the user doesn't know when management is peeking) via a passed on registry entry. Never had to leave my office! Now I have a full list of all available VNC workstations in front of me - even with a really cool thumbnail view of each desktop. Plus, you can start and stop the services by remote, run external program and even uninstall MSI installed software. Just a really great package all around. The best VNC manager I've seen yet.

• Be sure to look at this product

  netsamSeptember 10, 2006

  Pros

  Must have if you are serious in remote desktop networking. I didn't need to read the help to get things moving, so it must be very easy. I've seen many different remote control programs in work, and I think SmartCode VNC Manager is the best choice for administrators because of its features, security, and reliability.

  Cons

  The price could be a little bit lower. But these guys provide great support so by the end of the day the product worth its price tag.

• Great product!

  maximvelichkoSeptember 8, 2006

  Pros

  I sent my comment few days ago, but since it has not appeared, I'll resubmit it again. <p> <p>I am using VNC Manager since version 2.0 and it has improved a lot! VNC Thumbnails feature is great, but especially useful are remote management tools like Remote VNC Deployment, Wake-on-LAN, Network Scan and others. I was glad when I figured out that version 3.5 got Microsoft Virtual Server supported. <p> <p>Would I recommend to use the VNC Manager to administer a computer network?! Definitely yes! <p> <p>Thanks guys, you did great job!

• Life saver

  dalmeidavidSeptember 8, 2006

  Pros

  I have a Windows 2000 machine that ineed to keep to support some customers, but it is not Professional so it doesn't have Remote Desktop Access. VNC works very well under these circumstances. Plus it's free.

  Cons

  Somewhat slower than terminal services and sometimes it doesn't show the proper colors.

• Excellent, mature, smooth product

  stsanfordAugust 1, 2006

  Pros

  You know that one piece of software that you look forward to using. That is this program. It has almost every option that you could need for managing VNC / RDP / Virtual Server machines.

  Cons

  The only cons are that is doesn't YET support all remote software such as pcANYWHERE and Citrix connections. I have solved the citrix issue by using the excellent external tools scripting facility. I use this with rAdmin so far and it's great.
