## WinPulse — Windows Server management from your iPhone ## Monitor, troubleshoot, and control Windows servers from anywhere — no RDP, no agents, no exposed ports. WinPulse brings processes, services, event logs, diagnostics, and reporting to your iPhone or iPad so you can triage, investigate, and act in seconds. ## How it works ## WinPulse connects to your Windows Gateway server over SSH (port 22). The Gateway communicates with all your target servers using WinRM, WMI, and CIM — native Windows protocols that are already in your environment. No separate agent product. No new attack surface. WinPulse connects your phone to a Windows Gateway over SSH. The Gateway communicates with all target servers using native Windows protocols — no agents required. ## Gateway setup ## Connect your Gateway server in minutes. Full setup documentation at signifium.com/winpulse. On Windows Server 2025, enabling SSH is as simple as ticking a checkbox in Server Manager — just like enabling RDP. No PowerShell required. For Windows Server 2022, 2019, 2016, and 2012 R2, a one-step PowerShell command handles the install. Step-by-step instructions at signifium.com/winpulse. Supported: Windows Server 2025, 2022, 2019, 2016, 2012 R2, and Server Core. ## Built for the moments between full sessions ## Full-screen RDP from a phone is clunky for quick checks.
