Imagine if you had a web site that could give you complete control of every computer in your network, or your business, and it can do that with or without alerting the user of the computer.

Want to search every computer in every office for specific files, or specific types of files, or files with specific kinds of data or specific words in them? Like secret/top secret/confidential etc.

Want to be able to run commands against every computer all at the same time, with super-admin priviliges?

Want to install an application or remove one?

Want to download files from every computer? Want to download a file, change a few things and then put it back? What if you changed the language of a contract, or a bill?

Want to run a command to connect to databases and export all the data? All the databases?

You can do this and much much more.

In the right hands it's a tool to mange everything and alert on potential problems before they become terrible, so you have time to fix it. It's great for remote support. You can hop on someone's desktop, Mac, Windows, Linux, and help them with it.

In the wrong hands... if terrible is the size of a shoe box, this is a shoe box the size of China.
