Likelihood to Recommend 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,
Read full review If the software functioned as it was intended, it would be probably a 7 out of 10. It lacks the majority of customization that
SolarWinds N-central supplies, but also supports some customization that other solutions we have tried do not. Again, if the software didn't consistently break, the ability to implement automated scripting via PowerShell and the capacity to manage 10+ endpoints at once in different windows is great.

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. Read full review Being able to see systems that are not within the local network allows us to be able to troubleshoot and work with the end users no matter where they are or where we are as it is cloud based. Several functions can be "automated" so staff do not have to keep going back and scanning for updates, push Windows updates and or push sensor updates. VSA offers a variety of system information about all of the assets that have the endpoints installed on them so we can easily see the system specs without having to actually connect to them and pull up the SysInfo on each unit. Read full review Cons 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. Read full review Support - Like all other competitors support is OK but the product is robust enough to reduce support requirements. Customer Service - another team that is a bit poor especially when the issue involves multiple departments. Otherwise, the direct rep is very friendly and professional. Read full review Likelihood to Renew 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. :)
Read full review Excellent product with easy learning curve
Read full review Usability 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
Read full review Support Rating 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.
Read full review It was lots of back and forth email communication whenever I tried to solve my connection issues. I would send them detailed logs of the date, time, computer, and more of when I was experiencing connection issues. All I would get is an email back a few days later saying that they didn't find an issue in the service
Read full review Implementation Rating The implementation was completely successful. We had no issues!
Read full review Alternatives Considered 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. 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. Read full review There are other products that do some of what Kaseya does, but I've not personally worked with another product that does everything Kaseya does. Sure there are plenty of remote control products, but products that do as much as Kaseya are few and far between. Hard to go wrong with the sheer scope of functionality!
Read full review Return on Investment 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.
