    I could detail what each one does, better or worst than Remote Desktop Manager, but the main thing is, RDM (Remote Desktop Manager) does everything other tools do, faster and more integrated than others. And still saves credentials that could be used by one or more connections, …

    Compared to VNC Remote Desktop Manager is like comparing a Citroën 2CV to a Ferrari. There's no comparison possible as they are totally different. VNC is just a remote tool and RDM has so many more features.

    Chose RealVNC Connect
    We have been using VNC for many years now and continue to use VNC due to its reliability and ease of use. When we need quick access to a remote computer for troubleshooting, VNC doesn't glitch or cause disconnects. Sometimes it may run slow but that is due to network issues, …
