About

The free remote desktop software for business and personal use. With Distant Desktop you can access and manage computers from anywhere in the world. No installation or registration required. Everything is extremely simple: download the application to your computer and to the computer you intend to control. Write down your unique ID and password and use this data to establish a remote desktop connection. While working you can send and receive the text messages from your remote partner. Just write to integrated chat window. Use a microphone and speakers, or a headset for voice communication. The Demonstration mode is another way to use our remote desktop software. In this mode you allow remote access to your desktop, but the ability to control your PC is disabled. The users are allowed to see your actions, talk to you, or send messages to chat. This mode is ideal for distance education, training or presenting your digital products.

About

Remote access tools can be messy—different clients, unmanaged credentials, and no clear visibility. Remote Desktop Manager changes that. It centralizes all your remote connections in one place, with support for RDP (Remote Desktop Protocol), SSH (Secure Shell), Telnet, VPNs (Virtual Private Network), and many other protocols. Users get cross-platform access from Windows, macOS, Linux, and mobile. Sessions can be launched in 1 click, while credentials are stored in shared or personal vaults. All activity is tracked, and role-based access control ensures least-privilege enforcement. The Remote Connection & IT Management package enhances RDM with Devolutions Gateway for secure, just-in-time tunnels; Hub or Server for credential storage; and session audit logs to meet compliance requirements. Everything integrates seamlessly through RDM’s interface. It’s a streamlined, policy-driven solution for IT teams that want full control over remote access without bouncing between tools.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Lightweight and portable. All options and functions are packed into the simple and easy interface. Good and stable connection.
  • Just get the free version. Free is great, cause customer service sucks. They claim to contact you within 24 hrs, but they don’t.
  • DD is perfectly designed, so even a child could use it. Also I like the support. These guys helped my a lot when I had some problems.
  • It's free - this is the main advantage of this software. Second advantage is simplicity and ease of use.
  • Personally I like the interface. It is very convenient for me. All controls are available on the title bar, the options can be adjusted right from the main menu. Everything is clear and easy to understand.

Cons

  • Strange warning on the connection window saying that upnp is not enabled. I contacted vendor and was told to ignore this warning.
  • Customer service sucks. They claim to contact you within 24 hrs, but they don’t.
  • You can't change the output directory for the transferred files.
  • Sometimes the signal is interrupted, and I have no mind why it's happening.
  • The signal speed could be higher. Sometimes there is a gap of 2-3 seconds.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Can highly recommend this for server and password management for bigger companies - Easy to use and install
  • Make a connection with remote desktops immediately and access all passwords. With many integrations you can make it more powerful also AI support will make it more effective. Centralized use makes it very easy.
  • RDM has been a goto for over 8 years now, however, with the release of PAM on Devolutions server, this has upped our game in providing a seamless RDM experience with PAM integration.
  • Swiss Army Knife of Tools for SysAdmin, a great tool, which includes all the management tools in a single application for System Administration, especially like the SSH and RDP for managing all remote servers from single pain of glass.
  • I like the way this software has the all in one solution i need for any remote desktop connections and scripting like PowerShell.

Cons

  • Not ideal for small companies - People with little to none it skills shouldn’t use this
  • There is no cons for me. Maybe startup can be more fast
  • Better Session (RDP) and Password viewing is needed to ease and use for each scenario. We need to be able to launch RDP sessions with out requiring approval, however, a password exposure in PAM needs this approval and eyes on it.
  • Pricing could be cheaper! But all VMware vExperts get it for free!
  • The software is quite big in terms of functionality so at some times it might be hard to find the correct functionality needed.
