Devolutions Remote Desktop Manager
I am always looking for a way to keep things in order so I can get to them as fast as possible when I have to. I support several different companies, and all of them have a few servers, an antivirus interface, a firewall, and some other stuff. This application is awesome for managing all that. It allows you to group and search through all your RDP connections, webpages, putty services, and VNC servers with a few clicks. It supports a few other nifty functions too. You can easily edit the information tab to keep track of the compony contacts and the logins. It will save your username and password for RDP as well. It also supports direct shell commands through command line. I have used this to fire off applications that are not natively supported by the software. And best of all it supports shared databases, so if you have a few techs doing remote work its indispensable. The application is not perfect, it is somewhat memory intensive, but is an awesome must have find for anyone managing a bunch of stuff at once.
