Hello,
I really enjoy using the RMM—it works exceptionally well. I wanted to ask if you accept suggestions or ideas for potential improvements.
Specifically, I was wondering if it would be possible to add something like a Dynamic Filter or Dynamic Group feature to the RMM.

Use Case Scenario:
Currently, Tactical separates servers from workstations, but there’s no way to further filter, for example:

Virtual servers from host machines
Domain Controllers from other servers
Certain workstations based on hostname

Having this capability would be extremely helpful for automating tasks such as patching or rebooting. For example, I could:

Patch the host before patching the VM on it
Patch the Domain Controller before other servers
Patch the remaining servers afterward
At the moment, all servers are patched together, and simultaneous reboots can cause issues.

If we could either manually create filters for automated tasks or dynamically generate them (e.g., if a server is a VM or has “Host” in its name), it would resolve about 90% of the challenges we currently face with Tactical.

Please let me know your thoughts and whether this could be feasible.

Thank you,
