Highlights of Desktop Central
Desktop Central automates day-to-day device management activities, from onboarding to retirement, across highly heterogeneous device and OS ecosystems. It delivers requirements like remote support and endpoint security that go beyond traditional and modern device management capabilities. This approach eliminates the need for multiple siloed tools for different requirements.
Desktop Central integrates with a wide range of IT management and security tools offered by ManageEngine and third parties, offering flexibility and ease to fit the UEM solution into customers’ existing IT ecosystem. Expanding across the globe steadily, ManageEngine continues to strengthen its regional support and implementation services, upping its already broad capabilities.
