Remote Desktop Manager vs mRemoteNG Comments
Positive comment by Guest · Sep 2, 2025
Software update cycle is much more often and recent, documentation is current and extensive, it's supported on multiple OS platforms, and the community support is far superior than with mRemoteNG. I would highly recommend checking it out.
Positive comment by emirsa · Oct 27, 2024
I can manage about 20 servers on a regular basis. It's a very nice and constantly updated app.

Positive comment by 1realm · Jan 25, 2026
Works quite well for SSH and Telnet but no RDP. Also it's not really open source as what's provided is very out of date and incomplete.
