A Refreshing Take on Remote Connectivity

Surely enough, human beings have proven their mettle under gazillion unique domains, and yet there still remains an awful little that we do better than just simply growing on a consistent basis. This unfaltering push to get better, no matter the circumstances, has brought the world some huge milestones, with technology emerging as quite a major member of the stated group. The reason why we hold technology in such a high regard is, by and large, predicated upon its skill-set, which ushered us towards a reality that nobody could have ever imagined otherwise. Nevertheless, if we look beyond the surface for one hot second, it will become abundantly clear how the whole runner was also very much inspired from the way we applied those skills across a real world environment. The latter component, in fact, did a lot to give the creation a spectrum-wide presence, and as a result, initiated a full-blown tech revolution. Of course, the next thing this revolution did was to scale up the human experience through some outright unique avenues, but even after achieving something so notable, technology will somehow continue to bring forth the right goods. The same has turned more and more evident in recent times, and assuming one new development ends up with the desired impact, it will only put that trend on a higher pedestal moving forward.

Remote.It, a leading SaaS-based network management service, has officially announced the launch of a new product called ScreenView, which is meant to be a white labeled solution for remote screen sharing. According to certain reports, ScreenView comes decked with an ability to let you view and control any PC or mobile device. This, in practice, further translates to ensuring that teams can effortlessly use an external display, share their screens, troubleshoot issues, and collaborate in real-time, regardless of their physical location. Turning the product even more attractive for companies is its white-label aspect, where you are allowed to easily put your own branding on the solution, and therefore, carve out a whole new revenue stream from the same. However, if you don’t want to commercialize it, then you can also, quite easily again, integrate it with your existing workflow. But what will ScreenView bring to the fore on a more granular level? Well, the answer begins from its promise of facilitating hassle-free browser-based interaction, meaning you can connect to virtually any Android device right from your browser. Also, guess what, you can do so without ever having to install any extra remote viewing software. Supporting multiple user connections all at the same time, ScreenView, like you we touched on, isn’t just about viewing operations from a remote location. Instead, the product also makes it possible for you to remotely control devices, including something like keyboard input. Then you have the prospect of comprehensive access management, a prospect which lets you pick between allowing a view-only arrangement and gaining complete control of the operation. This choice at your disposal is further supplemented through real-time visibility on connections. Not just technological prowess, ScreenView has also dedicated a substantial amount of focus towards user security. You see, leveraging Remote.It’s Zero Trust Network Access technology, the product is able to conceive for you granular access control, while simultaneously preaching the facility of least privileged user access.

“Mobile technologies are fundamentally networked, but legacy networking approaches and technologies require ongoing management and maintenance to enable connectivity; with our connectivity as code technology, we’ve reinvented remote desktop and support for Android devices,” said Ryo Koyama, CEO of Remote.It. “Remote.It ScreenView works just like the internet, point your browser at your Android device and connect, no app to download, no IP addresses to configure, secure and private through code, the way it should be.”

Having touched on the product’s make-up, we now must get into what kind of use cases ScreenView can have across a broad assortment of industries. For starters, it can be used as medical monitoring equipment. Given its knowhow in fostering real-time collaboration, health professionals should be able to use ScreenView to observe a patient’s health even after the latter has been discharged from the hospital. Such a feature becomes enormously useful in critical conditions that require a near instantaneous response, if and when an anomaly is observed. Moving on to the product’s potential in and around the construction space, construction teams can basically use ScreenView to enhance communication throughout the hierarchy of command and achieve a more impactful troubleshooting mechanism by remotely sharing screens of on-site equipment. Given how so many location-related barriers are automatically eliminated through such a solution, ScreenView’s integration will also install a greater amount of efficiency into construction industry’s efforts. Next up, the solution has the potential to play a role in Point of Sale locations or dedicated customer kiosks. This goes for various different tasks, including ticketing, parking, electronic vehicle charging, making restaurant and hospitality reservations, checking-in, and a lot more. The idea here is to provide the best possible customer service without the involvement of a human being. Another use case which ScreenView can fetch for you is rooted in transportation and logistics operations. As most devices in these operations are about tracking and managing in-transit shipments, solving things through a remote system is almost a necessity. Fortunately, thanks to ScreenView’s feature of enabling active device control, transportation and logistics companies can troubleshoot any issue, no matter where it occurs across the supply chain.

Hold on, we still have a few bits left to unpack, considering we still haven’t mentioned the way ScreenView can be used by the agricultural industry. You see, even though technologies like agricultural sensors have greatly modernized the stated sector, it has also exposed farmers and related business to potential technical hiccups. ScreenView, of course, addresses the inconvenience caused by such hiccups. From now onwards, those farmers and businesses can remotely monitor and resolve all glitches in the context of their sensors so to save plenty of time and optimize productivity. In a similar way, sectors dealing with critical resources such as energy and water can also bank upon ScreenView’s real-time screen sharing to address issues promptly and ensure uninterrupted operations. Rounding up the highlights would be the product’s use case in wider infrastructure development. You see, rather than staying limited to individual construction projects, ScreenView offers a secure and efficient way for businesses in critical infrastructure sectors to manage and collaborate on remote equipment. Alongside the well-documented benefit of productivity, the solution also, through the given elements, fulfills the all-important agenda of higher equipment reliability.

Available in the Google Play Store, ScreenView will launch with unlimited usage per a customer’s device and user limits. It is offering a further Fleet pricing option to companies that are device-based and require few user licenses for at least 100 devices.

Founded in 2009, Remote.It’s stems from an ability to replace manual network management with a Zero Trust and code-based system, birthing eventually a never-seen-before brand of network connectivity. The company’s excellence in what it does can also be understood once you consider that it has already served more than 531,000 devices. Boasting, at present, a total of seven different patented technologies, Remote.It also supports over 30 hardware and software compute platforms, along with 4 cloud services. Further supporting any standard or customer type like TCP or IP UDP, the company is currently active in an estimated 214 countries and self-declared territories. In case you need some more convincing, we can look at Remote.It’s clientele, which holds players like Trimble, Carbon Robotics, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, docket, Advantech, SPAN, and more.
