NetSupport Notify also provides an interface for integration with existing systems.

Notification Server

NetSupport Notify is based around its unique Notification Server technology. Installed on any Windows 2000 Server/Desktop or later, the Notification Server manages connections to all desktop agents and ensures immediate delivery of all alerts. NetSupport Notify also includes redundancy, allowing multiple Notification Servers to be implemented and ensuring if that one is unavailable at any time, agent connections will automatically switch to the next available server. You can use as many notification servers as you want and they are included for free in the standard licence cost.

The Notification Server also controls all agent and console connections and authenticates these against unique user defined accounts and security keys, ensuring the system is only used by authorised staff. Use of NetSupport Notify can also be controlled via Active Directory policies.
