In a move to strengthen endpoint management solutions, Recast has announced substantial updates to its Right Click Tools suite. These enhancements focus on facilitating the administration of Intune and Entra environments, reflecting the ongoing integration of ConfigMgr with Intune. By offering IT teams innovative ways to manage endpoints, Recast aims to enhance operational efficiency while reducing costs and ensuring security and performance.
Recast's CEO, Will Teevan, expressed pride in his team for continually responding to customer feedback and delivering features that genuinely enhance endpoint management strategies. He highlighted the intuitive nature of Right Click Tools, which has set a high standard for industry companions of Intune and ConfigMgr, guiding IT teams to save valuable time and operational resources.
Key Features of Right Click Tools
The recent enhancements include a range of powerful functionalities specifically designed to optimize endpoint management. Users can now manage multiple devices in Intune and Entra environments through the following tools:
- - Simultaneous Execution: Capabilities allow administrators to run Intune-specific tools across multiple devices concurrently. This includes seamless operations like deleting devices from Intune or Azure, adding devices to Entra groups, and syncing application and compliance policies efficiently.
- - Single-Tool Action: Admins can eliminate devices from Intune or Entra with just one tool and manage policy updates with ease.
- - Advanced Windows Autopilot Features: The new updates come with additional management tools for Windows Autopilot, which include functionalities for adding and editing group tags and removing devices, thus facilitating a smoother experience in device onboarding and management throughout their lifecycle.
Improvements in Patching Capabilities
Recast has made significant strides in improving the Patching features within Right Click Tools. This includes:
- - Automatic Notifications: Administrators can now set up automatic email notifications that inform them of the successes or failures of application deployments.
- - Custom Applications Deployment: Users are empowered to upload and deploy custom applications alongside Recast's extensive library that encompasses nearly 4,500 software titles.
- - PowerShell Scripting Capabilities: The new version facilitates advanced configuration with pre- and post-deployment PowerShell scripting.
- - Scheduled Deployments: Users can align deployments with the regular Patch Tuesday cycles of Microsoft, ensuring timely updates.
- - Expanding Third-Party Support: The latest updates enable users to update third-party applications using an existing ConfigMgr Software Update catalog.
- - Intune Integration: By creating deployment processes for applications in ConfigMgr's ARP inventory, users can enhance their deployment efficiency.
