Protects Users' Privacy
When connecting to remote computers using Remote Desktop Sharing,
the adminstrators have an option to whether get user's
permission before connecting to their desktop. Selecting
this option would pop up a request window in the user's
desktop seeking remote access. This is to ensure that
the user's privacy is maintained.

Desktop Central supports accessing a remote desktop either using ActiveX or Java plug-ins. This enables accessing a remote desktop from any browser like Internet Explorer, Firefox, Flock, etc.
Remote File Transfer
Desktop Central allows you to remotely access desktops and transfer files between them. The Remote Desktop Sharing mechanism supports remote login to any desktop in your network by any user account that has Remote Control privileges. Files can be transferred across domains and workgroup machines via the Active-X Viewer and Java viewers. And the entire process is Fast, Reliable, and Secure.
Multi-Monitor Support
In case you are connecting to a remote machine that has more than one monitor, the Desktop Central Remote Control options will automatically detect this configuration and displays it on the ActiveX tool bar. Further, the user can select a particular monitor that is associated with a remote machine individually and this will be displayed over the Remote Control session that is established.
