Remote Desktop Manager vs. MobaXTerm

If you have lots of servers to manage, lots of credentials, different protocols, documents, other files, and need a single tool to manage it, this is the tool. Active Directory integrated, user and groups permissions, audit everything, keep data in encrypted files or in a database, customize everything, even the installer,

MobaXTerm shines when executing commands for large numbers of Network appliances like Switches or routers. As network Engineers, when managing an extensive infrastructure, we need tools to reduce time and work. MobaXterm Split and MultiExec features helped me push configuration changes for more than 100 Switches within a few hours.

• I would like to see advanced auditing in the Devolution's drive data source like there are in some of the others. But that's just something I'd like to see, it doesn't hinder my using the app.
• I would love to see even more addons available from even more software and service developers, but again the addon manager is great already so it's not a hindrance what so ever.

• password manager is a pain to get to
• when I sign out of an RDP session, the tab should close on its own. If I lose connection, then the Reconnect option can be shown
• It should be able to update on its own, not through download and basically a reinstall

I've been using RDM for about 10 years now. I started with the free version, which I used for a few years, and eventually switched to the Enterprise version. I can never go back now! I use this tool for everything and cannot see doing my job without it! Whenever we have someone new come in or bring in a vendor/contractor, they always ask me what RDP tool I'm using. Once I explain about it's features and all, they're usually instantly sold on it. :)

It's easy enough for anyone to use, it's meant for both novice and advanced users. They're continually adding helpful features, I used the free version for a while. I upgraded because it limits how many sessions you can have in the free version. I've purchased a license for everyone on my team, they love using it.

It's very easy for any IT administrator to use, it's highly customizable and you can download it free for personal use. It supports every protocol you can think of, has built in power shell and allows for drag and drop of SFTP file browser. I recommend this tool for any IT professional.

I've never had to use support as I've never had an issue. That said, you can open a support ticket right from the UI. The user forums are active, and there are thousands of threads covering many topics. Very easy to get support if needed. This is an easy ten.

The implementation was completely successful. We had no issues!

VisionApp is not in the list. This is the application we used before we got introduced to RDM. VisionApp was great but it did not have the same features as RDM did. Perhaps VisionApp has had some updates but we haven't found any reason to switch applications again

The biggest advantage of MobaXTerm against others is ability to group servers in folders (according to the client, for example) and feature that allows you to connect to all kinds of servers: SSH, SFTP, RDP, WSL, Also, it is relatively cheap. Previous I used SecureCRT, but it costs about 200 $/ year, which is too high. MobaXTerm is 49/69$ and you can use it multiple years.
