The manage technicians section allows you (Admin) to grant privileges to technicians to conduct remote support and/or unattended access sessions. All technicians added in your organization can access unattended computers by default while granting remote support privilege depends on the number of remote support technician licenses you've purchased. You can choose to change the privileges while sending an invite or even after the technician has joined the organization. Invites can be sent one by one or even to a group of technicians. You can also grant permissions for technicians to specific groups under unattended access.
