To clear all doubts, WAC doesn’t aim to replace the Microsoft Management Console or the Remote Server Administration Tools. Basically, WAC is a “simple and elegant” answer to managing Windows Server and Windows 10 deployments, and the best part is that it comes at no additional cost. These might consist of “Event Viewer, Device Manager, Disk Management, Task Manager, Server Manager”, and many more. Simply put, WAC is kind of centralized hub which brings together several consoles that IT admins use. Windows Admin Center is a locally deployed, browser-based app for managing servers, clusters, hyper-converged infrastructure, and Windows 10 PCs. What’s added, this project now has a new official name: Windows Admin Center (WAC).Īccording to Microsoft’s guesstimates, the software has been downloaded more than 50,000 times during its testing phase and has been deployed by over 25,000 customers these numbers surely confirm the existing exhilaration surrounding the Windows Admin Center.įor Windows administrators who are tired of dealing with opening several consoles and management apps to administer networks, WAC is the one-stop shop. After months of testing as a part of the technical preview, Microsoft recently made its ‘Project Honolulu’ ‘generally available’ to the users at no extra cost.
