With SCO SuperVision, system administrators have the power to remotely manage, configure and control SCO Vision Family desktops from a single point. By allowing desktops to be handled individually, in groups or as a whole, SCO SuperVision dramatically cuts the cost of managing and supporting large groups of PC users.

"SCO's installation performed a detailed test of our PC's network viability. If the target systems tests out as inoperative in some way, the program can suggest solutions."

Easy distribution of files

Use SCO SuperVision to distribute files, menus and PC desktop items to all users in a single stroke, with a simple drag-and-drop action on the administratorÆs desktop. This capability ensures new versions of software are easily and quickly distributed to your entire user base without visiting individual PCs. The latest software can be distributed to all users whether their PCs are switched on or not, plugged into the network or not ù even if theyÆre on a remote site with dial-up access.

SCO SuperVision can be used to produce a uniform corporate desktop interface. It can place items on usersÆ desktops and remotely manage the Program Manager or Windows 95 Start Menu. For example, a UNIX application session could be distributed to a group or to all users; the users simply click on the new item to run the UNIX session exactly how the administrator wants them to.

Support all your users without leaving your desk

Distributed computing can stretch the resources of any IT department. With SCO SuperVisionÆs remote support facilities the administrator can remotely query an individual PC to see running tasks, versions of files, and even a snapshot of the screen. Even the most mobile, dial-up user receives the same high level of support as the directly connected user.

Protect your PC users

Using SCO SuperVision, a system administrator can, from a single point, control what a PC or group of PCs are allowed to do and see, and novice users can be prevented from using a particular feature of a product. For example, in secure installations the administrator may want to prevent a specific group of users from printing a copy of an emulator window.
