We use this for our DevOps team. This allows us to connect to the multiple servers throughout our infrastructure, with any changes to the connections or credentials being super easy to manage with the inheritance capability of the configuration.
  • Use a single set of saved credentials across multiple servers.
  • Organization of saved connections.
  • Provides the ability to share a subset of connection information with other personnel.
  • Honestly, no complaints, given our usage.
If multiple sets of credentials and User Directories are involved across the servers you're connecting to, this is a huge help in organizing them all and managing changes over time. Having multiple concurrent server connections in tabs instead of separate windows is also much more convenient. While we're only using RDP, there are multiple connection methods to facilitate a mixed environment.

This is a very organized way to have all your remote desktop connections available in a snap. Organizing them into groups per client or unit makes it very easy and with saved credentials you are seconds away form remoting into a server or workstation. Love this product!
  • Organize remote desktop connections
  • Provide easy and fast connections
  • Backup and restore configurations
  • Can be overly complicated at first, but you can add into the features as you build your organization skills
Best for users that have many desktops or servers they need to login to. Great in my environment of multiple clients and the need for fast login and resolution of their issue. If you have a large infrastructure or multiple clients, this is a product you need!

It is used by the IT department. Used to remote into servers and sort them into logical groups.
  • It saves your credentials so that you may log into any server with just a click.
  • It allows you to save layouts (groups of computers you can open simultaneously).
  • It allows you to sort computers into logical groups in the left-hand pane.
  • I'd like to be able to tag computers by criteria (ie location, function, etc) then be able to sort them in the left-hand pane.
It works very well if you just want to enter your credentials once and then open groups of computers.
