mRemote vs. Terminals

Posted under Church IT by Jim

I’ve been using mRemote for my RDP and SSH chores for quite a while now, but was disappointed to see that it is going commercial. (I certainly don’t begrudge anyone trying to make a buck… I’m just cheap when it comes to tools like these).

So, while talking to a colleague about this he informed me of another free RDP/SSH/etc client, Terminals. I haven’t been using Terminals very long, but so far it seems to do everything mRemote did, and then some. On one hand, it has better credential management, while on the other hand it has some rougher edges in the UI.

Overall I like it and consider it a usable replacement for mRemote. Best of all, it’s still free!

    It doesn’t do SSH/VNC, but RDTabs (http://www.avianwaves.com/Tech/Tools/RDTabs/) is the best one for RDP I’ve ever used and is free. ;)

    Thanks Chris! I recall you mentioning this at the CITRT but forgot about it!
