Overall Satisfaction with Remote Desktop Services
Remote Desktop Services is being used by many different departments, between direct desktop access or access to a remote terminal server.
Remote Desktop Services addresses software that does not tolerate being run over a WAN connection. Some of the Vendors we use for software requires direct contact to SQL, so we secure that and only allow local access.

- The ability to have custom resolutions or screen setups.
- Remote printers.
- Similar look and layout of any Windows computer.
- Remote file sharing could be easier.
- Some better compression for laggy connections.
- Better security options.
- Remote Desktop was built in for local machines, so that was a no brainer.
- When running a Terminal server the calls can get expensive so we try to limit who has access to it at a given time.
Remote Desktop is great for onsite or point-to-point connections without having to have a mediator type server.
