Does NoMachine allow multiple users to connect to their own individual desktop on Windows or Mac?

Users that connect to the same Windows or Mac machine connect to the same physical display of that remote computer. This means that all users connecting simultaneously will see the same physical desktop. It's not possible for each user to connect and see their own individual desktop because NoMachine does not support creating "virtual desktops" running on Mac or Windows. The functionality of running multiple individual desktops on the same machine is available only on Linux in the NoMachine Terminal Server Family.
