Using Quick Connect
NinjaOne Quick Connect is a remote access tool designed for ad hoc support and rapid deployment, unlike NinjaOne Remote, which works with devices already integrated into NinjaOne.
Quick Connect allows immediate, one-time access to devices without pre-installed agents, making it ideal for new client onboarding, emergency support, and managing devices not regularly monitored in the remote monitoring and management (RMM) system. Quick Connect streamlines the remote connection process for rapid problem resolution or RMM deployment in many contexts.
