With Mission Control Desktop, IT professionals can customize and seamlessly deploy Netscape Communicator and Navigator. When used in conjunction with Netscape Communicator Professional Edition, Mission Control Desktop lets IT professionals centrally manage client configurations and automatically distribute new software through a server-side configuration file. Mission Control Desktop can reduce overall cost of ownership by reducing initial deployment costs, cutting help desk calls, and minimizing ongoing maintenance costs.

All of these capabilities are built on such open standards-based technologies as JavaScript, Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP), Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP), and Java Archive (JAR) to allow for easy universal deployment.

Mission Control Desktop provides the following tools:
