RDP Software

RDP, or Remote Desktop Protocol, is used by many IT professionals. It allows them to remotely access and manage computers across networks. As an IT manager or MSP, you most likely want to understand the benefits and limitations of RDP. You can also benefit from knowing how it can be leveraged for effective IT management. In this article, we will explore the role of RDP software in Microsoft Remote Desktop Services (RDS), as well as the capabilities offered by RDS-Tools. We will also see the importance of our documentation in supporting effective use of these tools.

RDP software in Microsoft RDS

Microsoft Remote Desktop Services (RDS) is a popular solution for managing remote desktops and applications in enterprise environments. The platform allows IT managers to centralize desktop and application management and enables users to access their work environment from anywhere. At the core of Microsoft RDS is its RDP software. RDP allows remote users to connect to a server and access a virtual desktop or application.

One of the main benefits of RDP in Microsoft RDS is how it supports a large number of simultaneous connections. Historically though, security has been its prime weakness. Steps like encryption and extra authentication need to reinforce the protocol. Without these, RDP and therefore potentially RDS would be left open to threats.

 

RDS-Tools RDP Capabilities

RDS-Tools is a software provider specialising in remote desktop and application management solutions. Our RDP software suite provides advanced capabilities for IT managers, administrators and MSPs, including load balancing, session recording and device protection.

Load balancing is particularly useful for organizations with high volumes of remote connections. Indeed, it ensures that network resources are evenly distributed across multiple servers. RDS-Server Monitoring provides this feature.

Session recording is one of our choice capabilities for RDS-Remote Support. It enables IT managers to monitor remote sessions for security and compliance purposes. It can also be used for training and logging purposes.

Device protection is the remit of RDS-Advanced Security. It gives the option to pair endpoints with the credentials of the specific users connecting from them. This increases how secure a login can remain since the combination of correct credentials plus appropriate device adds a layer of difficulty against a potential breach of security.

One extra feature for today is RDS-Server Monitoring's latest feature: our team have recently opened it welcome Linux servers in a click. We hope this will make managing servers smoother for all IT professionals who have to juggle servers from different operating systems.
