Apple Network Assistant 3.5 supports up to five levels of administrator access, each with its own password. That means you can safely allow teachers or department-level administrators to assist users and generate reports while restricting privileges for deleting items or changing system settings to authorized support personnel.

When you spot a problem, you can choose the best way to help. Share your screen with one or more users as you demonstrate the correct steps. Share one user’s screen with everyone else. Or take control of a user’s system to perform a task. Apple Network Assistant also supports real-time voice and text communication.
