Nope

Describe the solution you'd like
One of the things I rather appreciate in SceenConnect/Connectwise Control is their "Session Groups" and the flexibility that can be utilized when creating groups, especially using "Subgroup Expressions". I've set up a number of different Session Groups so I can work with the agents in various ways, such as shown below:

Online by Desktop/Server, OS, OSVer
Online by Desktop/Server, Client, Location, DevType
All by Desktop/Server, OS, OSVer
All by Desktop/Server, Client, Location, DevType
All by OSVer

This results in great flexibility to bulk select groups of machines and apply updates, scripts, etc. Rather handy, it is!

An example of the Subgroup Expressions used to generate the groups above is as follows (All by Desktop/Server, OS, OSVer):

IIF(GuestOperatingSystemName LIKE 'Server', 'Desktop'), GuestOperatingSystemName, GuestOperatingSystemVersion

Having the ability to group on OS, OS Version and similar would be an awesome addition to Tactical RMM (in my not so humble opinion) as it will allow for the easy identification of Agents running on particular OSes or builds of those OSes, and therefore easy mitigation of issues with particular OSes or OS versions.

Special Bonus Feature Request

At present the "Agent type" in Tactical RMM is limited to "Server" and "Workstation". Being able to add extra options (such as Laptop, VM Guest) would be awesome, and would be needed up the top where you can currently see "Servers", "Workstations" and "Mixed". I know I can add these as Custom Fields, but you can't then use them in a similar way to group/bulk select agents.

Or maybe Tags? Tags would be awesome if they operated like Custom Fields, but then showed up as colors or checks so we can easily see which tags are applicable to which Agents.
