Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"It really helps to have all the data already pre-entered and all I have to do is enter the password.""Makes me instantly more focused on resolving the issue rather than getting to the issue.""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.""Documentation per entry, good for device configs or important/special instructions."""Inherited" function for credentials - Configure the desired credential at one (top) location, and use the Inherited function on all sub-connections that should use this credential.""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.""Devolutions's team is constantly making improvements to their products. If you submit a feature request, they are usually quick to implement it."

"The installation is almost instant.""The technical support is good.""I can do anything from a remote desktop as if I were sitting at my own PC.""This solution has allowed us to have a highly flexible remote access solution in DR/BC situations.""The solution is very quick to set up."

Cons
"On complex setups, I actually needed to reach out to support to get it working correctly.""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.""If there was a way to streamline the process, it would make it nice.""Maybe some clipboard functions could be added along with integration of different software.""Security roles could be improved, especially by enabling renaming of a role.""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.""The filing system of connections is a little clunky, but is completely functional.""The RDM client (.NET issue, actually) can stall or lock up while it clears communication threads to the server."

More Devolutions Remote Desktop Manager Cons →

"If the PC is hung then it requires a reboot.""The pricing has tripled in a small amount of time and there is not three times better service.""Integration could be improved. I'd prefer if the solution could integrate with our support and report tools as well as our timesheet reporting."
