Limit Hosts to X number of open Sessions

From CW#7560570:


Partner would like to limit ScreenConnect hosts to only be able to open a configurable number of sessions at a time, preferably with a way to have different users with different numbers of sessions that can be open (licenses used).

Duplicates 4
control amount of unattended licenses that a user can use

Currently if a user is created it can use the entire amount of licenses for unattended access that we have. So if we have 5 concurrent licenses on a self hosted and 3 different users. One user could open 5 unattended session with there login and no other users can then open a unattended session unless you kill one of those open unattended. When you have 500+ client machines finding the open ones can be difficult... Would be nice if we could set a control on a user to limit them to one session or multiple, but we choose the count.

Ability to limit the number of sessions a user can consume

I would like to define how many sessions a given user can consume, thereby reserving sessions for other users. I want to be able to define different session limits for different users. REALLY need this.

Limit number of active connections to specific techs

Would like to have the ability to limit tech A to 1 active connections at a time and tech B to unlimited number of active connections

Limit users to X number of open Sessions

It would be very helpful to be able to limit ScreenConnect/Connectwise users to only be able to open a configurable number of sessions at a time, preferably with a way to have different users with different numbers of sessions that can be open (licenses used).

Not to mention this request is in triplicate, having been asked for in other threads as shown above. At least a response from Connectwise would be nice.

Since the COVID-19 emergency (we are an Italian company) our portal is getting hammered by more hosts than before, and we are having troubles to educate the new operators. We upgraded the license, but that doesn't solve anything.

This missing feature is really a problem now.

I too would like that feature, but I would like to see it per group.

I would give a group of users access to a group of machines (their machines), but I would not want all 10 users to be using 10 of my licenses all at the same time. I would like to limit that user group to say 2 or 3 licenses.

I too would like to see this feature, but I would definately like to see it per group.

EXAMPLE: I would like to give a group of users access to a group of machines (their machines), but I would not want all 10 users in that group to be using 10 of my licenses all at the same time. I would like to limit that user group to say 2 or 3 licenses, And/or limit them per user.

I am an old Screen Connect user, using version 5.x from 6 years ago, STILL SUCCESSFULLY using it instead of LogMeIn. I bought Screen connect because I didn't want to pay monthly fees for the 20 to 30 computers I manage.

I love the software, I want to upgrade and pay for more licenses, but I NEED the control to be able to do that.

It was raodmapped 2 years ago, but no update..... disappointing.

Connectwise, can we get some type of movement on this????

ETA status etc. I posted in this forum > than 4yrs ago. This is sad on how bad the lack of communication is to your partners. You see the frustrated responses yet say nothing. This will truly over the long run have partners look else where. Nothing better than being left in the dark.
