Create a Custom View

Nerdio Manager allows administrators to create custom views that best represents their workflows. Multiple views can be created and one of the views can be designated as the default view.

For example, if you manage host pools across several Workspaces, there is no need to keep jumping back to the Workspaces list to switch from one Workspace to the next to work with all the host pools. With custom views, you can combine similar data on a single page across the environment.

Note: You can run bulk actions like Run script, Restart, and Power off on session hosts in custom views.
