Recast Expands Right Click Tool

Recast today announced Right Click Tools includes new enhancements to simplify complex hybrid and Intune-only environments. The shift from ConfigMgr to Intune is the defining operational challenge facing enterprise IT today, and most organizations are running both. Recast helps IT teams see what they have, keep it current and secure, and operate it across ConfigMgr, Intune, and everything in between.

Right Click Tools is the gold standard for helping IT teams get more value out of their Microsoft ecosystem. Moving to Intune and Entra presents organizations with a new set of challenges, and Right Click Tools continues to add capabilities that pinpoint these needs. With modules for PatchingInsights, and Privileged Access, the Right Click Tools product line addresses all aspects of endpoint management for IT organizations regardless of size.

Recast has a long history of using direct customer feedback to inform its product roadmap, building incremental improvements into the product line each month to get enhancements into users’ hands faster. Many of the capabilities already delivered this year were developed based on input from customers and the Recast Community of users.

Operating across ConfigMgr and Intune without navigating between consoles 

Recast has bolstered Right Click Tools with new options for managing devices in Intune, Entra ID, and Autopilot. These updates empower users to: 

  • Launch Intune Remote Help directly from the browser, without leaving the admin workflow 
  • Register devices in Autopilot without manual scripting, CSV uploads, or console hopping 
  • Retrieve LAPS passwords across hybrid-identity environments from a single interface 
  • Open Right Click Tools menus from six additional Intune pages, bringing the total to more than 20 pages 

Closing the third-party patching gap across 6,000+ applications

Running the latest versions of hundreds or thousands of applications is a key challenge for IT organizations as they strive to balance user productivity and infrastructure security. Drawing from a catalog of more than 6,000 applications, Right Click Tools Patching now enables users to: 

  • Configure settings for individual applications, so admins no longer have to create a separate deployment process if an app requires a custom setting 
  • Set up ConfigMgr or Intune deployment processes to allow the installation of 32-bit applications on 64-bit machines 
  • Restart all paused deployment processes with one click 
  • Display all deployment process events on a single page, for easier deployment process event scheduling 

Gaining visibility across extensive device fleets 

The Warranty Dashboard in Right Click Tools Insights helps IT leaders understand hardware coverage at a glance so they can anticipate refresh needs, minimize surprise costs, and extend the value of their device investments. Users can now: 

  • Determine device age and remaining coverage 
  • Filter remaining coverage by status  
  • Drill into device by status and warranty expiration timeline
