- Support for Intel vPro technology:
- CrossTec Remote Control 11 can now be configured to browse for machines with vPro capability (even where a CrossTec Client isn’t installed) listing the machines as a separate group in the Tree View and enabling a range of remote functions to be performed where previously a physical visit to the machine would have been required.
- Dynamic Auto-Groups:
- The Control Window 'Tree View' now includes an Auto Group facility that with one click allows you to automatically group your Client machines based on pre-defined criteria.
- Quick Access Toolbar:
- The new Quick Access bar conveniently highlights those individual machines or groups of machines you most recently connected to. By clicking on the required machine you are presented with a pop-up display that provides easy access to a range of functions.

- When the Control window is set to ‘Details View’, you can include additional columns of information for each Client. Particularly useful when connected to laptops, you can view the status of wireless networks and display the machines battery strength.
