Tools: visionapp Remote Desktop 2008 Express (vRD 2008)
vRD 2008 is a tool for the management of remote Windows computers via RDP (Remote Desktop Protocol). vRD is ideal for administrators who need to maintain simultaneous connections to multiple servers. Connection-specific settings and login credentials can be organized in folders and subfolders for quick access.
visionapp Remote Desktop 2008 is currently one of the most popular products in the market of RDP tools. visionapp Remote Desktop 2008 Express (vRD 2008 Express) offers a multiple number of enhancements and new features compared to the freeware version vRD 1.5, such as the extended support of Microsoft Windows Server 2008 and Windows Vista (incl. 64-Bit), an overview on all logged in users and connection history.
Limitations of vRD 2008 Express:
- up to 15 objects
- 5 credentials storable
- no Database-Modus available
- duration is valid until 3-31-2009
Despite these limitations, the tool is still publicly available. I used the earlier freeware versions and still like the Office interface. This is an opportunity to try it before buying. Looking at the future plans for mRemote and vRD, I think I will buy a license sometime next year.
Register and download the tool if you want to test it.
