Quick Connect Applet:

• Very intuitive and intelligent access to frequently used functionality
• Preserve authentication so connecting to the same resource again is just one click
• Automatically deploy host . If the machine that technician is trying to connect to does not have pcA host installed, then the app will automatically deploy a pre-configured host and establish connection
• If pcA services on the host have stopped for some reason, the app automatically starts the services and then establishes connection

 
Native Whiteboard Support:

Thumbnail View of Active Sessions:

• When multiple sessions are open, a dedicated tab displays thumbnails of all active sessions.
• User can directly jump to a session by clicking on the thumbnail

Primary and Secondary Authentication:

• Earlier versions of pcA supported only one type of authentication to be active at any time. 12.5 additionally allows LocalAdministrator group to be added to other authentication types
