Highlights
Endpoint Insights offers an All-In-One Computer View via right click, compiling data found outside of ConfigMgr. This view consolidates information on hardware (monitor, docking station, computer make/model, warranties), ConfigMgr health, drive information, software insights, and more. How is Right Click Tools and Endpoint Insights better together as a result? Users can take Right Click Tools actions within the All-In-One Endpoint Insights report, enabling actionable dashboards in Endpoint Insights as well as Right Click Tools.
Endpoint Insights brings profound visibility to all hardware. For instance, after identifying all docking stations, users can add them to a new docking station collection and run Right Click Tools on it. Users could run “Machine Policy Retrieval and Evaluation Cycle” to force the new docking station collection to pick up new updates recently deployed to the collection.
More broadly, all data unique to Endpoint Insights can be used to create novel collections not possible in ConfigMgr or Right Click Tools independently. Then Right Click Tools can be actioned on these collections.
Finally, Endpoint Insights scrubs data on user installed programs. Over 80% of webinar attendees polled shared security concerns over user-installed third-party software. Endpoint Insights surfaces this data, bringing light to potential vulnerabilities.

Better Together: Endpoint Insights and Right Click Tools
Right Click Tools embedded Recast Software into thousands of company’s endpoint management ecosystems.
