One shape, many jobs.
AdminRelay automates any workflow that needs the user's confirmation. Here is what that looks like in practice — the same flow (inform, choose, execute) applied to real work.
The restart scheduler, the default
A staged update is ready to install, but it cannot finish until the machine restarts — the one step that always waits on the person sitting in front of the screen. AdminRelay turns that stall into a simple choice: the user sees the pending restart and runs it now, schedules it, or defers, and the reboot follows the moment they confirm. It is the workflow the product ships with by default, and the clearest picture of what it does.
License and resource reclaim
A paid software seat can sit unused for months, quietly costing money the company could recover. Rather than force a blanket uninstall that risks breaking something to save a few months of license cost, AdminRelay asks the user directly: reclaim the seat now, or keep it — a license often falls quiet for a reason, whether time off, a temporary change of project, or a need that is only paused. The company keeps full control and a clean record of every decision; the clear reclaims run on consent, and the keepers can get a closer, more personal review later, with nothing quietly taken.
The executive and VIP change
The same change on a high-stakes machine normally means booking twenty minutes with a director who does not have twenty minutes, to deliver a five-minute change. AdminRelay gives the executive a clean, branded prompt to act on at a time of their choosing, with no meeting to arrange, no one to coordinate with, and no interruption beyond a moment's attention. Handled this way, the change asks nothing of the user's relationship with IT, and offers the composure of white-glove service at a scale no team could staff by hand.
The rollout that needs applications closed
Some installs and upgrades cannot run while an application like Outlook or Teams is still open, so they either fail quietly or force the app shut and take unsaved work with it. AdminRelay explains what is about to install, asks the user to save and close on their own terms, and runs the installer on confirmation. The rollout finishes cleanly, rather than landing half-applied and becoming a support ticket.
The security or endpoint agent deployment
Rolling out an EDR sensor, VPN client, or compliance agent means reaching every machine with something that briefly interrupts the person using it. AdminRelay tells each user what is being installed and why it matters, lets them choose when it happens, and runs the deployment the moment they confirm. Every machine ends up covered, on a schedule the users agreed to, with a clear record of who consented and when.
The maintenance window
Planned maintenance — a driver rollout, a disk re-image prep, a device that has to go offline for a while — lands better when the user is told before it starts, not during. AdminRelay announces the window, lets the user wrap up and confirm when ready, and runs the maintenance script on their go-ahead. The work happens in a slot the user agreed to, instead of one dropped on them mid-task.
Every one of these used to cost an IT team the same things: the emails, the chasing, the scheduling, and the downtime around the actual work. You bring the script for the specific job; AdminRelay delivers it, secures the confirmation, and executes.
