RDP enhancement utility

I often have many RDP sessions open at the same time, connected to my client’s systems. I like to run them in full screen, and usually there is no problem. Until, you reboot a server, then realize you were in the wrong RDP session!

BGInfo (populates the desktop background with system information) can assist with helping to identify the server, however if you’ve seen one BGInfo you’ve seen them all.

I came across Terminals this morning while I was looking for plugins for Microsoft Dynamics CRM. It lets you manage multiple RDP sessions, keep a list of hosts you regularly connect to (no more relying on most-recently-used lists or icons on the desktop), and comes with a swag of handy network tools all built in.

In a workplace that is all about becoming more efficient, Terminals is a huge improvement over the regular mstsc.exe experience.
