Find out what your peers are saying about TeamViewer, Microsoft, Citrix and others in Remote Access."RDM has enabled me to do most of my work in one place. This helps me be able to have an RDP session open to a server in one tab and an SSH session open to a VMware host in another."
"Being able to store my credentials makes connecting a breeze."
"The interface is great to work with as it allows multiple connections in a tabbed interface. It also has the option to automatically start a VPN or an SSH tunnel, if required."
"With the integrated VPN providers you are able to link the VPN entry directly to the session or entire folders, so you no longer have to configure the VPN manually on the machine."
"Being able to aggregate all connections (RDP, FTP, SSH, VPN, etc.) in the same interface and make each server readily available in the same way, which lets me focus on the problem regardless of where it is."
"One credential can be used to access VPN, RDS, and more."
"Makes me instantly more focused on resolving the issue rather than getting to the issue."
"Documentation per entry, good for device configs or important/special instructions."
"The most valuable features are that it is consistently low profile and consistently works without hiccups or headaches."
"There are always bugs to squash, beyond that, it is really kind of difficult for new users to discover and use many of the features due to the bewildering array of choices and ways to do things."
"Sometimes the manual inventory of some entries hangs, and RDM must be closed via task manager."
"Sometimes when updating, the install window is on top of the prompt to close the application."
"On complex setups, I actually needed to reach out to support to get it working correctly."
"If there was a way to streamline the process, it would make it nice."
"Security roles could be improved, especially by enabling renaming of a role."
"The filing system of connections is a little clunky, but is completely functional."
"The only complaint I have heard is there are too many updates. Each time there is an update (the app prompts to upgrade), it can be time consuming, especially when sometimes there are multiple updates per week."
"We occasionally have issues with the graphic software of the interface."
