The unrivaled multiple dongle sharing feature (a.k.a. multi-connect) is pretty much the main reason why using Donglify is the best way of splitting a security dongle over a network. With its help, several computers can connect to a single dongle all at the same time. As a result, you can keep your dongle safely connected to the same machine minimizing risks of it being lost or damaged and thus prolonging its lifespan.
The most frequent question that arises when it comes to dongle deployment is: how can multiple computers use one USB dongle? With Donglify, the vast majority of popular-brand dongles are by default open for concurrent access from any number of remote computers. So whenever you’re splitting a security dongle over your network, check out the icon next to its name. The ‘Multi-connect’ icon means that after this USB key dongle is shared, several remote users can connect it to their machine at the same time. The ‘Single-connect’ one indicates that while one of the remote PCs is connected, all the others will have to wait for their turn.
On top of that, Donglify offers you three options for making your local USB peripheral remotely accessible:
The USB devices shared from a computer logged in to your Donglify account will be instantly available for connection to all the other PCs logged into the same account, provided that Donglify is installed on every side. In other words, you need to install Donglify both the machine where your device is connected physically and the machine from which you want to access it remotely. This way, you are free to use your dongle anytime and from any of your machines.
