Will DesktopCentral support Vpro?
DesktopCentral supporting vPro would allow for PC's to be off and still be able to be patched. No longer requiring users to leave their PC's on and saving on energy costs among other things. One of vPro's marquee features is the ability to access a computer even if it has been turned off. This can be done on either a wired or a secure wireless network. And laptops outside the company firewall can be accessed with the newest versions of software and hardware, according to Intel... Thanks.
