New:  PROXY Pro v10 Product Datasheet

  • PROXY Pro

    P2P EDITION

    Our entry level product includes the PROXY Pro Master viewer, the PROXY Pro Host client, and the PROXY Pro Deployment Tool.  The Master polls your local network segments for machines running the Host, and provides a listing of machines by computer name, user name, or both if you like - and simply double-clicking launches a connection.  The PROXY Pro Host allows for custom connection behavior too such that end users must approve incoming PROXY Pro Master connection attempts too, and that's only the beginning in terms of flexibility.  The P2P Edition's peer-to-peer style connectivity model is ideal for organizations with one or many LANs or WANs.  It's for IT teams who are considering moving away from free tools, but yet doesn't break the bank.  The Workstation Edition is licensed on a per-seat basis, so for a quote we would like to know how many folks on your side would be using the PROXY Pro Master, and how many endpoint machines you'd intend to have the PROXY Pro Host clieint installed on.  Check out the comparison matrix to see the hefty standard feature list in the P2P Edition!

    RAS EDITION

    The RAS Edition consists of the same components as the P2P Edition and adds the PROXY Pro Web Console, designed to allow customers to take remote control of and manage Host machines from their favorite web browser.  The PROXY Pro Web Console runs as a website in IIS on your on-premise server, and is designed to be internet-facing though can be kept internal.  A typical web console landing page would be something like https://support.customersite.com, and is also re-brandable.  Also included is the new PROXY Pro Host on Demand, an instant version of our traditional installed Host, whereby a user share their desktop from your web console - for a true on-the-fly support session on any machine, non-corporately issued or personal is fine too.  This product uses a concurrent licensing model, so we would quote you on how many folks would be using PROXY Pro at the same time.
