Installing software or updates to computers on your network has never been this easy.

Remote administration

Simplify system configuration and management by automating time-consuming administrative tasks.

  • Perform over a dozen commands securely on remote Mac OS X systems, such as locking screens, sleep, wake, restart, and shutdown.
  • Execute UNIX shell scripts or commands on your client systems.
  • Set the startup disk of your remote computers to start from a NetBoot or NetInstall image.

Remote assistance

Provide complete technical assistance to all the computers on your network without ever leaving your desk.

  • View the new System Status Indicators for colour-coded details on available disk space, memory, and CPU utilisation.
  • Prevent end users from viewing the screen while you control their systems to accomplish system management tasks with Curtain Mode.
  • Use the Remote Desktop widget for instantaneous, at-a-glance views of remote computers.

Automation

Automate routine management tasks using Automator in Mac OS X.

  • Get started immediately with over 40 actions.

    Ideal product for Technical Support of Macs

    Written by DD from Dukinfield

    24-Aug-2009

    Apple Remote Desktop 3.3 is an ideal tool for anybody who manages a number of Macs whether it’s monitoring a classroom of students or providing Tech Support to users over a network spanning different buildings and even different sites.

    Rather than using the inbuilt VNC features of OS X to manage client machines. ARD allows admin staff to carry out management of clients remotely (a gift in a multi-site environment).

    ARD allows you to rename machines, install applications, change startup disks, copy files to users, monitor activity using the handy built in reporting tools, asset management and the ability to help users logged in at any site within an organisation.

    The purchase of this application has made my life as Mac techie and the response time for users so much better and I would recommend this product to anyone who looks after a number of Macs in any environment.
