Remote Desktop Manager vs. mRemoteNG vs. RemoteCall PC/Mobile/Visual

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,

Well suited to environments where IT staff need to access multiple servers/systems at the same time, cutting down on time wasted opening multiple windows. Not so useful for users that only need to access one system remotely, as most of its functions are largely unused in that case.

There was an engineer call due to an emergency failure at the customer. It took an hour for the engineer to move and get to the site. So, using RemoteCall, I immediately supported the problem while moving. The customer's problems were resolved before arriving on-site, and the customer was satisfied thanks to the quick handling and response. Without RemoteCall, the golden hour would have been missed.

• Customer service delivery, whereby you can connect to clients to assist and resolve an incident.
• Working from home logging onto office based machine.
• It helps to attend to a problem more quickly, thereby saving the cost of relocation and commuting to distant places.
• Speed and cost elements are critical here.

Incentivized

• Easy to organize and group servers.
• Many different protocols for remote access.
• The ability to make use of external applications for non-directly supported protocols.
• Servers can inherit settings from nodes above so you can set up properties once making adding new servers/devices very quick.
• Easy to export and share config with new team members (be mindful of what you do with passwords though).

Incentivized

• low cost.
• fast access.
• Remote mobile service.

Incentivized

• Occasionally there is a UI bug where the sidebar goes missing and you have to delete some files in %localappdata% to bring it back
• Would be great if it could also connect to serverless SQL instances like Azure SQL
• If computer sleeps and wakes with Remote Desktop Manager open it will comtimes ask you to re-login for no reason - as when you close and reopen Remote Desktop Manager it works

Incentivized

• The user interface for configuration is a little basic, and not obvious for a new user to set up connections. It could be a bit clearer how to do that.
• It does not seem to automatically update itself to new versions - though older ones work fine, you can miss out on some new functions if you don't check for updates manually.

Incentivized

• They need to invest more in advertising.
• Fewer users than competitors.

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. :)

Due to the way our business works, the use of Remote Desktop Manager is limited to the IT staff. For that reason have given it a rating of 8, but only a limited number of employees benefit from this solution as the bulk of our consultants that support customers can not benefit from this solution due to security mandated separation between internal and external systems

Because it is easy to use once installing. The interface is very intuitive and there are help files available for anyone needing further set up assistance. For someone who is currently overwhelmed with managing too many things in too many places, mRemote simplifies this and puts the power back in the administrators hands with their intuitive interface.

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.

Never actually needed to use support so have no idea - honestly it's simple enough to use I'd be surprised if anyone really needs support with it.

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

Every now and then I do look to see if there is any other software that can bring together multiple remote access protocols in a single interface that can contain multiple connections to remote devices with image scaling to mage use of a windowed interface and have yet to find an alternative that does all that but doesn't cost a huge amount. Don't get me wrong I would happily pay for an alternative that could provide an overall better, more convenient experience, but I have yet to find one that has made me think it's worth jumping ship from mRemoteNG.

RemoteCall and TeamViewer are both good products. However, technical support for TeamViewer is difficult. When a problem occurred, it did not respond immediately and took a long time and it took too much time and money to customize it for the company. On the other hand, RemoteCall provided various services at a low cost. In particular, it was customized to satisfy 100% of our requirements with a demanding customer.RemoteCall is the best value for money.

• A common place for storage for all users. Instead of employees using multiple different password management systems, they all use Remote Desktop Manager to store them now.
• We don't have to buy licenses from multiple vendors when everyone uses Remote Desktop Manager.

• Very easy to hand over connections to new starters.
• Having multiple remote protocols in one place is a massive time saver.

• Saved a lot of time and money.
• Low cost.
