OptiTune Review

Manage Computers From Any Location And Any Device

Managing computers from anywhere is one of the reliable features offered by OptiTune. Because the software can run in the cloud, users will be able to access the software from any location and any device. All they need to do is to connect their device to the Internet, whether it is an iPad, iPhone, Blackberry, or Mac computer. Additionally, they can manage their computers even if they don’t belong on the same network.

Remote Assistance And Remote Connect

With OptiTune, IT teams can manage and support computers remotely. Through the aid of its features called Remote Assistance Solution and Remote Connect, they can access and control the computers of end users wherever they are and even if the end users are not in front of their computers. These features enable them to easily connect to any computer within their organization and directly access files on the remote computer.

Automated Patch Management

Patch management is another powerful capability present in OptiTune. OptiTune automatically identifies the computers that need to be updated, delivers information about the updates installed on computers through detailed graphs and breakdowns, and generates a list of new available updates. By setting update filters, users will be able to configure the software so that it automatically approves new updates and selects the most relevant ones. With such capability, they no longer need to manually go through a long list of available updates, thereby streamlining their patch management tasks.

Cost-Effective Application Deployment

With OptiTune, deploying applications to computers is a breeze. This is because users can quickly and easily install applications on computers remotely based on the schedules they set. As a result, mobile employees, who don’t usually visit their office, can instantly have the applications they need. Although the software supports the Windows Installer (MSI) which is needed for repackaging applications for custom installations, it doesn’t require such installer when deploying applications. Thus, users no longer need to invest in expensive custom installation and application repackaging programs.

Monitoring And Alerting Functionality

OptiTune has a monitoring and alerting functionality that allows users to immediately get notifications when security incidents happen or when something is wrong in their IT environment. These notifications can be sent through email or text. Thus, when there is a malware attack or a server is down, they will be instantly notified. In addition, they can create custom events as well as choose the events they want to get notifications for. For organizations that have multiple IT work shifts, the software allows them to create groups of administrators for each work shift and schedule when such groups should receive notifications.

Endpoint Security

OptiTune also delivers endpoint security feature. With this feature, users can quickly identify the computers or applications that are infected by malware. They will be able to contain such malware infestation as soon as the software detects it so that it won’t spread over their entire network. The software permits the scheduling of quick and full scans. What’s great about this is that it integrates with popular anti-virus programs, giving users the ability to access the most up to date data on malware infections and helping them secure their computers better.

Performance Monitoring

Summing it up, the IT management software makes sure that users are able to monitor the performance of all computers and servers on their network. Through the aid of graphs and charts, OptiTune generates detailed performance information such as the specific times when servers show high CPU usage and disk activity, the number of processes occurring over a period of time, and the computers that need more RAM. Users can also combine performance information and data to track the performance of a group of computers.
