Enable or disable AccessShowUnderControlBanner depending on session group
Customize groups for app.config
I would like to be able to create customer groups that will allow me to apply different app.config files to them. For instance most times I want the screen to lock on exit, but not on my Kiosk screens.
Disable Connection Notifications for selective machines.
I understand that there currently exists a series of settings to disable the connection banner and the system tray for Connectwise Control, but these are only at a global level. I'd like to be able to disable these features for selective machines.
Hello, add feature to request control per computer
Apply app.config changes to specific clients
We would really like to have the ability to make changes to the behavior of Control for several clients without effecting the configuration for all of our other clients.
Advanced Settings at the Company or Computer level
I would like to request making changes to the Advanced Quick Settings and Other Settings at the Company or computer level so it is not a Global change for all of our clients. One of the settings is to Lock guest machine when host disconnect and another one is Automatically lock the guest machine when a host connects, however we cannot enable this Globally as some customers need both the end user and the person remoting in to see the screen. It would really help if we could make setting changes at the Company or computer level. Thank you.
Selective disable of features on a per company basis
I would like to be able to set some features to be unavailable on a per company / per client basis.
I have some clients where people aren't using the chat feature as it should be used and I'd like to disable the chat feature for just these clients as I do use it well with other clients......
I know it's not possible now, but I guess it shouldn't be too hard.
App.config files based on session Groups vs Global
We have 2 ConnectWise Control on-premises licenses used for our medical data portal where our users have various needs based on their "group" for screen sharing, remoting in, other controls that some need and others have no business having certain control access. Our solution initially was to buy more licenses since App.config files are "global" but that is not practical.
Other companies like Splashtops allow the streamers deployment to be based on "groups". This makes so much sense and I would think that the ConnectWise "client" could also have a grouping based on the app.config file. In our case, it would not be practical nor feasible to buy a license for each individual company that wants to make a few changes to how they see and use the ConnectWise Control.
Please consider adding this ability.
Session Lock by Access Session Group
I am looking at setting up a specific group of machines with access sessions. I would like to have these sessions lock whenever a technician disconnects from the session. I see that there is the option to set this globally for all access sessions. I would like a feature that would allow me to set this option for only a specific access session group.
Using Control via Automate - Specify tailored app.config for a couple of different Clients
We use Control through Automate and would like to be able to apply different app.config settings for a couple of Clients. I see there are similar requests but wasn't sure if I should raise my own. Happy for it to be bundled in.
Allow disable guest input and blank guest monitor to be set per session group
Be able to set disable guest input and blank guest monitor per session group. I would like to be able to target specific groups and not allow guest input and blank the guest screen, specifically servers) Currently they are global settings that apply to all machines. I would like to be able to set them at the session group level for more granularity and control.
Gain the ability to change default session settings by user group - Not just globally
I would like to be able to apply the following settings per user and not just globally
-Blank the monitor
-Block guest input

I need to apply these security settings to remote users but not all technicians for security reasons.
"your computer is being controlled by" disable for server but enabled for workstations
Can this option be split in 2 sections one for servers and one for workstations or have it auto hide after a certain time?

We are starting to use BGInfo and it would be nice to separate the workstations from servers for blacking out the wallpaper. Also, this would open up SO MANY other doors for managing settings and configurations.
Thanks for your feedback. Is this because the banner is taking up real estate when viewing the remote machine in the host client?
No. At the moment we can choose whether to contact a client silently or not. But this policy is set for the whole Screenconnect installation. I want to be able to choose the policy per session group.
We too would like to separate servers from workstations so we can apply the "AccessLockMachineOnDisconnect" to servers but not to workstations when disconnecting. Ideally we'd like to add a value to custom property, as our servers are spread across several groups and applying the setting to just one group is not ideal, where as creating a custom property (for example IsServer : True / False) would be perfect.
We would make use of this feature also. We have a single client with a single computer that displays graphics on an external touch screen. Sometimes they need remote assistance with that computer and having the station lock on a touch only screen causes a headache trying to get it back to the right view.
I want to use the AccessShowUnderControlBanner only if consent from the client is needed.
At the moment, I have two different session groups in use. One needs consent from client, the other one (for servers) does not. If I connect with a client, it would be nice to get a banner on top which indicates I'm connected with the machine at the moment. On servers/own desktops I don't want this bar.
Please extend the AccessShowUnderControlBanner option, so I can choose on which session groups I want the banner enabled/disabled.
Thanks!
