  1. 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
  2. The extensions, add-ons, and features of RDM. You simply can do a lot more.
  3. Automation - There's additional things you can do that help automate your workday to make things easier
  4. The interface - It's easier to navigate and deal with multiple sessions at a time.

Did implementation of Remote Desktop Manager go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Remote Desktop Manager again?

Yes

The software is flexible enough to be used in most scenarios. I'd say you can use the 'free' version to manage fewer sessions and with a smaller team or solo team, but the full version is better for centralized environment with many people or with a tenant or role based access to systems. It's overkill if you only remote into 1 or 2 systems unless you make use of the integrations it offers.
