    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.

    Basic network administration for unclassified systems is appropriate. I would never use it in a secure/classified environment based on its company ownership. We do not use the current version 3, so any improvements made may not be addressed in this review.

    Pros
    Open Source
    • 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).

    Cons
    Open Source
    • 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.

    • Slow or intermittent connectivity if there is no good communication link between connected equipment
    • They could add functionality so that the user of the tool can take full control of the equipment when changing users
    • Provide more detailed information about the user that makes the remote connection to the computer

    Usability
    Open Source
    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.

    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.

    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.

    We actually use both products, but our primary tool for corporate user access by our IT staff is Radmin. We use Microsoft RDP for access to our network servers since we can better secure our server access with Microsoft's product.
