If one of our employees wants to work from outside we give them access through ScreenConnect to their PC in the company. With WOL they are able to turn the PC on at any time they want.
A better way would be if ScreenConnect could initiate a new RDP session on a given terminal server where the user can logon with his credentials so that there is no need to use of an extra PC.
This would also allow more than one tech to connect to a server to perform tasks.
It's possible to initiate an rdp session with powershell:

Hi Brian, I think I have got a similar request:
http://product.screenconnect.com/topics/448-ability-to-initateuse-an-rdp-session/
Do you agree?
+1 for this of course!
Very similar to mine!
I currently have a redirector setup doing the powershell RDP, but it's not very fast in connecting..
I also asked and many others expressed need for this as well in this older thread, at the time I was told this was added to feature enhancement request so there should have already been a feature request for this from over a year ago. http://forum.screenconnect.com/yaf_postst3429p2_Terminal-RDP-Server-Session-Support.aspx?=#post19011
I don't mind if this comes via extension but we absolutely need it. I can't allow rdp any longer due to lack of audit ability and we don't always want/have access to the console session of a server.
Anyways +1 please
Many times, we connect to server console sessions that are locked or in use. We would like the option to create a new session, by default, on specific servers or groups of servers, instead of connecting to the console.
