The purpose of Windows remote access, is the ease of access to a computer that is in a different location. You can use your home computer to access your work computer, or vice versa.
Windows Remote Management (WinRM) is a built-in Windows feature that lets IT admins remotely access and manage computers over a network. It allows you to run PowerShell commands, collect system info, install updates, or troubleshoot issues—all without having to be physically at the device. WinRM is especially useful in businesses where multiple devices are spread across locations. It helps save time, improves security, and supports automation for tasks like checking services, running scripts, or gathering logs. For broader and easier management, many companies pair WinRM with tools like Scalefusion MDM. With Scalefusion, IT teams can remotely manage and monitor Windows devices, automate patch updates, schedule reboots, and ensure all systems stay secure and compliant. It simplifies the process by offering a user-friendly dashboard and works alongside WinRM and other native tools to improve visibility and control over your device fleet.
