ConnectWise ScreenConnect is a fast, secure remote access tool for MSPs. It offers unattended access, on-demand support, and background management — all self-hosted or cloud, with full audit logging.

  • Self-Hosted Option: Full control, no third-party cloud dependency.
  • Fast Connection: <2-second connect, low latency, 60fps.
  • Background Tools: Run commands, edit registry, manage services without screen share.
  • Security: 256-bit AES, MFA, session recording, role-based access.

How Blackhawk MSP Deploys It

  • Deploy self-hosted relay on dedicated VM (Windows/Linux).
  • Install access agents via RMM during onboarding.
  • Configure guest access: client clicks link, no install needed.
  • Enable session recording and audit log export to PSA.
  • Use in triage: background fixes before escalating to full remote.
