It replaces the typical four-to-six-tool IT operations stack - PSA, RMM, helpdesk, MDM, asset tracking, network monitoring, patch management and IT documentation - with a single, built-as-one platform on a shared data layer.

It triages tickets, surfaces patch and CVE risks, drafts worklogs, suggests knowledge base articles, and increasingly handles fully autonomous workflows for routine work. SuperOps supports Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, iPadOS and Android, integrates with the IT and MSP ecosystem (Slack, Teams, Azure AD, Okta, QuickBooks, Xero, Bitdefender, SentinelOne and more), and bundles Splashtop and ISL Online remote access free.

It publishes Windows and Linux desktops and applications, internal web apps and files to any HTML5 browser or to native Windows, iOS and Android clients, with no VPN. The browser needs no install; the native clients add low-level USB device redirection. How it works: a gateway, a broker and a lightweight agent on each session host. Agents connect outbound to the gateway over port 443, so session hosts need no inbound firewall rules for user access. Sign-in works with Active Directory, LDAP, SAML 2.0, OAuth 2.0 or RADIUS, with built-in multi-factor authentication and role-based permissions. Session recording and audit logging, with SIEM export, support HIPAA, GDPR and PCI DSS reviews. Linux, Java and web applications can also run as per-session containers on Kubernetes (OKE), and a REST API supports automation. Standard VDI features include multi-monitor, printing, clipboard and file transfer, USB redirection, session sharing, load balancing and high availability. Also deploys on AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, IONOS, VMware, Hyper-V, Proxmox, hybrid and air-gapped networks. Licensed per concurrent user. 4.7 out of 5 stars 16 Ratings Visit Website for Thinfinity Workspace Kasm Workspaces Kasm Workspaces streams your workplace environment directly to your web browser…on any device and from any location.
