Chose Remote Desktop Manager
From a multi-user perspective, we felt Remote Desktop Manager outperformed mRemoteNG and RDCMan as both of those tools required we copy/share their datafiles to keep everyone up to date.

Being a mostly Microsoft shop, RDCMan is the standard method of connecting and managing Windows servers. It knows its job and does it well. It's rare that I experience problems with the app. Unfortunately, I can't say the same about Devolutions' product. Devolutions' Remote …

Chose Remote Desktop Manager
I could detail what each one does, better or worst than Remote Desktop Manager, but the main thing is, RDM (Remote Desktop Manager) does everything other tools do, faster and more integrated than others. And still saves credentials that could be used by one or more connections, …

Chose Remote Desktop Manager
I got a free trial of Remote Desktop Manager and have been hooked ever since. I won't go back now.
The types of sessions. You are not limited to just RDP sessions, you can do SSH, Web Browser, iLO, or really any session you can imagine that you might use to connect to a remote service
The extensions, add-ons, and features of RDM. You simply can do a lot more.
RDCMan is the only other similar tool I've used (outside of Windows Remote Desktop Connection). Remote Desktop Manager is more stable, easy to use, and has many, many more features than RDCMan. RDSMan feels very outdated compared to Remote Desktop Manager, and I could never …
Remote Desktop Manager was the best product and most useful when compared to the others we used/tested. There are so many more features available within the product, as well as a low entry point from a cost perspective. None of the other products met our needs fully.
When it comes to competition, none come close purely because I can do everything I need to in just the one application, whereas before I discovered Devolution's Remote Desktop Manager I'd have to use several.
Remote Desktop Manager does everything that LogMeIn does and much more. It accesses more systems than LogMeIn can and it cost way less than LogMeIn does. It is a win-win situation. Logmein does the connecting from the web but sometimes you don't want that overhead because you …

They don't even compare. Nothing really compares. RDM is pretty amazing.
Compared to VNC Remote Desktop Manager is like comparing a Citroën 2CV to a Ferrari. There's no comparison possible as they are totally different. VNC is just a remote tool and RDM has so many more features.
The best part I love is that you can save the database of connections to a secure cloud database and then access this from any machine. you don't have to worry about saving details on a USB drive that can get lost or corrupted. You can layout in the RDManager in folders of the …
For the first 3, they are good connection managers, but they didn't track credentials across all the different connection types required. I needed Putty for SSH, RDPMan for RDP connections, and other tools for their connections. Moreover, many didn't support tabbed or …
RDM is the only tool offering folder organization, inheritance AND, most importantly, entry sharing between colleagues.
It is also the only tool to offer sahred Cloud storage for those entry, Jump Desktop offers to use Cloud storage but only with third party Cloud Storage …
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,
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.
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. :)
I use this tool for almost everything in my day to day job. I launch the VMware VI Client from RDM. I launch vSphere Web Client Sessions from RDM. I RDP from RDM. Access Dell iDRAC and HP iLO via RDM, as well as Cisco UCS Manager and iKVM. I have saved SSH Sessions to my VMware hosts. I have URLs saved to get to things like IPAM, etc
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.

Automation - There's additional things you can do that help automate your workday to make things easier
The interface - It's easier to navigate and deal with multiple sessions at a time.
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.
