Value Of Your Time Whitepaper
No matter your perspective, the crippling of global business from late
2019, is a reality that began when a company went from 20% remote
workers to 95% in 1-day. Board of Directors who always tabled business
continuance plans were under social, media and political pressure, to
make reactive, often panicked decisions to maintain the viability of
themselves, their business and many are still reeling with the
repercussions. The “Value of Your Time” white paper is a
humorous, light read that proposes LANStatus’ AdminConnect software for
the proactive management of Azure Virtual Desktop and Citrix Virtual
Apps and Desktop for Azure for a more productive end user experience.

With the new AdminConnect Agent, the program can now display session performance statistics right in the main UI, including round trip time, available bandwidth, jitter and session logon time.
You can also check the status of servers at a glance with the ‘Session Host Settings’ screen, and disable or enable logins to a specific session host. Administrators also have the ability to start, stop or restart session hosts remotely, making maintenance tasks much easier to manage in one spot.
AdminConnect also provides the ability to add and remove users from application groups in just 3 clicks.
AdminConnect is designed to be easy to set up and intuitive to use. Therefore is no special configuration required and the only dependency is Java, which you can download packaged with the program.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Q: How do I add computers to AdminConnect?
A: Under normal circumstances session hosts will automatically populate. However, if you turn off API usage you may manually type in the hostname of each host in the configuration panel. As long as you are running AdminConnect from within one of the session hosts you will still be able to assist users and connect to the session hosts.
Q: Why can’t I see any users in the table?
A: There are a few reasons why you may not see users, first, make sure you have entered the tenant name and host name correctly in the configuration panel, also make sure that you have entered your Microsoft account info correctly. If you are using this method, make sure that the “Use WVD” button is pressed. If you are not using your Microsoft account, you must be on the same network as the VMs, and make sure that you have entered each hostname into the “Host” table in the configuration page.
