We're proud to announce the release of ScreenConnect 1.8. This release is one of our most diverse and extensive
releases since the product was launched. ScreenConnect 1.8's numerous features include the following:
- ScreenConnect technicians can now host sessions
with any computer as long as an operating system is compliant with
ScreenConnect’s Java Web Start Host Client. This provides extensive flexibility
for hosts who want to use their Mac or Linux based PC for hosting sessions with
clients.
- A new custom toolbox, which allows hosts to
organize and launch support applications located on the host computer to the
guest computer via a single mouse click icon. Visit Youtube to see this feature in action.
- An Android phone application that allows mobile
users to connect to their client PC’s via their Android OS based smart phones. View the app and its features on Youtube.

- One of our beta user’s favorite new features: our change license consumption policy. Sessions that are left open by the
host no longer consume a license, resulting in an immediate 20-30% ROI
improvement for most customers.
- File transfer now supports entire directory trees.
- Customization and branding of the software allows hosts to completely remove the ScreenConnect name and brand the product as required. With the 1.8 build there are now 150+ customizable fields and labels open to the ScreenConnect administrator.
