Remote Desktop Manager vs. Techinline Remote Desktop

If you have lots of servers to manage, lots of credentials, different protocols, documents, other files, and need a single tool to manage it, this is the tool. Active Directory integrated, user and groups permissions, audit everything, keep data in encrypted files or in a database, customize everything, even the installer,

FixMe.IT is an absolute price-performer. Far less expensive than many of its competitors, it offers all the major features small outfits like mine need. While not nearly as robust as other offerings such as TeamViewer and GoToAssist, its price point simply can't be beat. Thus, small consulting firms that primarily deal with Windows-based PCs will see a huge cost benefit. Larger MSPs are probably better off with a more expensive but flexible solution.

• Customer service delivery, whereby you can connect to clients to assist and resolve an incident.
• Working from home logging onto office based machine.
• It helps to attend to a problem more quickly, thereby saving the cost of relocation and commuting to distant places.
• Speed and cost elements are critical here.

• Unattended access always works
• Deployment through MSI to all PCs in the company
• Stable and dependable. The app never has issues.
• Option to follow users' mouse if they have more than one screen but you are only using one screen to display their computer. It allows them to show you things without fighting for the mouse or having our view of their screen be too small.
• Lightweight. The app for on-demand remote controll, unattended access, and even the expert are all very small and not resource intentsive

• Occasionally there is a UI bug where the sidebar goes missing and you have to delete some files in %localappdata% to bring it back
• Would be great if it could also connect to serverless SQL instances like Azure SQL
• If computer sleeps and wakes with Remote Desktop Manager open it will comtimes ask you to re-login for no reason - as when you close and reopen Remote Desktop Manager it works

• Not sure if we are able to display multiple screens at the same time. For example the server and some workstations. I know we can click back and forth easily, but not sure if we can display them at the same time.

I've been using RDM for about 10 years now. I started with the free version, which I used for a few years, and eventually switched to the Enterprise version. I can never go back now! I use this tool for everything and cannot see doing my job without it! Whenever we have someone new come in or bring in a vendor/contractor, they always ask me what RDP tool I'm using. Once I explain about it's features and all, they're usually instantly sold on it. :)

Great product for the price. I would buy it again. We now have 6 licenses of it and it's completely worth the investment.

Due to the way our business works, the use of Remote Desktop Manager is limited to the IT staff. For that reason have given it a rating of 8, but only a limited number of employees benefit from this solution as the bulk of our consultants that support customers can not benefit from this solution due to security mandated separation between internal and external systems

I've never had to use support as I've never had an issue. That said, you can open a support ticket right from the UI. The user forums are active, and there are thousands of threads covering many topics. Very easy to get support if needed. This is an easy ten.

It is all just done through email so there is no tracking of tickets but there is not much need since they will respond multiple times a day if needed. I never have any issue with them though. They are very well trained.

The implementation was completely successful. We had no issues!

VisionApp is not in the list. This is the application we used before we got introduced to RDM. VisionApp was great but it did not have the same features as RDM did. Perhaps VisionApp has had some updates but we haven't found any reason to switch applications again

TeamViewer I use for Mac clients, I like fixme.it better because of ease of client to get me a client id

• A common place for storage for all users. Instead of employees using multiple different password management systems, they all use Remote Desktop Manager to store them now.
• We don't have to buy licenses from multiple vendors when everyone uses Remote Desktop Manager.

• During COVID, we simply would not have been able to work without it.
• Integration with our website and customized branding gives clients a good sense of security of who they're letting in.
• After 11 years, I see no reason to switch.
