Remote Desktop Manager Free is intended for the organization of remote connections. The program has a modern look and its different functions are accessible through tabs. Fortunately, there is also a dashboard that provides quick access to the most frequently used functions. Besides, there is a left panel to facilitate navigation as well. Yet, the manager comes with so many features that it is likely to take you some time before you can exploit it to its full potential.
The program supports various technologies, including Microsoft RDP, ARD, Telnet, VNC, TeamViewer and Wayk Now. But, more than just that, if you install external libraries, the tool can also manage a wide array of cloud and remote connections, such as Citrix, X Window, Radmin, LogMeIn, DameWare, Spiceworks and many others.
To create an entry, you should first select the type of session. Moreover, you must provide additional data, such as the name of the target machine, the folder and the type of display. From then on, it will not be necessary to provide any other information to open a configured session. In fact, the tool also supports automatic connections, which can be opened without user intervention.
It is good to know that the product comes with various convenient tools. For instance, you can use the Password Generator to keep your connections secure from intruders. Likewise, there is the Key Agent Manager, which lets you store keys. Other handy tools are the Translation Manager and the Port Generator.
Since security is a critical aspect with this type of software, it is good to hear that the tool uses a granular protection access control to make it less vulnerable to all kinds of possible threats. Besides, there is a vault where you can safely keep your passwords and credentials.
All in all, Remote Desktop Manager Free certainly lets you centralize everything having to do with connections from a single place. It is also an ideal tool for teams. The product is available in two versions, one of them is free but needs registration within the first month of usage. The other, called Enterprise, has to be purchased but can be tried for a limited period of time.
