RDP Integration and Updates for Android, iPhone and iPad Support in Bomgar 14.1JACKSON, Miss. --(Business Wire)-- Bomgar (News - Alert), the leader in enterprise remote support solutions, today announced the latest version of its software, Bomgar 14.1. The Bomgar remote support solution allows technology support professionals to access and fix nearly any system or device, located anywhere in the world-from remote desktops and laptops, to servers and switches, and smartphones and tablets. Bomgar 14.1 introduces many enhancements and expanded capabilities, making it even easier for organizations to provide world-class tech support. New features include an integration with Microsoft (News - Alert) Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP), HTML5 chat support for desktop and mobile devices, mobile presentation clients, improved prompts and notifications, plus a number of configuration enhancements to customize the support experience for customers and endpoints. Bomgar's new RDP integration allows support technicians to initiate an RDP session through the Bomgar Representative Console from a different network without opening up the firewall. Natively, RDP has limited centralized management, auditing, reporting and collaboration capabilities. Bomgar eliminates these issues by routing RDP sessions through its appliance-based system, layering the security and management benefits of Bomgar over each remote desktop connecton. Bomgar 14.1 also includes the ability to chat with end-users using HTML5 making it easier to integrate chat with a website, knowledgebase or support portal. The new HTML5 based chat also allows you to easily extend your chat services to users on mobile devices. Now, support organizations can offer chat support from a website without requiring customers to install Flash or download Bomgar's mobile app. The new version also allows users to join presentations using Bomgar's mobile client for Android (News - Alert) and iOS, making it easy to attend presentations from an iPad, iPhone or Android device. During a presentation, attendees can zoom and pan, chat with the presenter and other attendees, and toggle or lock the toolbar. "The new features like RDP integration and streamlined session start make it even easier to support your customers and clients," said David Remy, security network specialist with Remy Services, LLC and Bomgar Early Adopter for 14.1. Additional features in Bomgar 14.1 include:
