Very useful App for IT SysAdmins – iRemoteDesktop Review

After checking out several free and "lite" versions of other remote desktop apps, I decided iRemoteDesktop was the best in class/price for my need. Highly recommended. I am a System Administrator for a large enterprise and we are just starting to port some of our existing applications to run on mobile devices, beginning with iPad. We are a mix of Windows and Linux servers, with Windows xp/7, Linux & Mac on developer's workstations. I was able to use this app to RDP to Windows server 2003, 2008 and both WinXP and 7' with no problems, over the iPad's 3G and my company's VPN. This has so far made the best use of my iPad as it applies to my work. In addition to iRemoteDesktop, I'd recommend iSSH (from a diff publisher), as a must-have companion app, if you're a SysAdmin on the go. NOTE: Make use of this App's built-in start up password feature, to keep others from seeing details of, or logging onto your remotes. You can store username and password when creating remotes, but I recommend leaving them blank and logging on manually for security. Great app! Kenneth Dunning System Administrator II CDG
