Desktop Central – Webbased Windows Server and Desktop Management Tool

Desktop Central is a web-based windows server and desktop management software that helps in managing thousands of servers/desktops from a central location. It automates the complete desktop management life cycle ranging from a simple system configuration to complex software deployment. With its network-neutral architecture, the administrator can easily manage desktops in any windows networks like Active Directory, Workgroup, or other directory services.

Once the program is installed then there’s no need to wander around your workstations to install upgrades, for instance. Instead you’re able to install MSI or EXE-based applications to selected workstations from your central console. And you can keep them all up-to-date with Windows service packs, patches and updates, too.

Desktop Central makes it easy to standardise your workstations, with the same wallpaper, shortcuts, printers, and just about anything else you need. This sounds a little draconian, but it’s useful if your users tend to move around, as it means they can access any system and immediately feel at home.

You also have the option to set a variety of security policies centrally, and the program comes with a handy option to detect the use of prohibited software.
