2026.3.8.0 Sucks
I'm a corporate paid customer of RDP Manager, been using it for years. It's always been slow as molasses in Jan regardless of what I run it on, too many features, ridiculous update cadence, mediocre interface, not intuitive and generally just waaaay more complex than it has any need to be. Too much sugar for a nickle, as the saying goes. But for all of the flaws, it's pretty much the only real option, everything else being a much worse alternative. That's the best I can say about RDP Manager- it's better than MSFT's now defunct RDP manager. Everything about Windows seems to be a race to the bottom. But this latest 2026.3.8.0 is a new low. This is absolute garbage. This is BETA software at best, that we are paying for. If you can't do better than this, you need to fire your entire development team, and their management team, issue a public apology, and start over. For me to stop what I am doing to post this is a testament to how ridiculous this is. FIX YOUR SOFTWARE!!!! I'm tired of paying your devs to drink coffee!

Hello,
I completely understand, and we are working hard to improve the stability. We have already made a lot of fixes in 2026.3.9.0, and we are working on more, coming soon.

Just installed it, still major issues. Navigation tab doesn't work unless pinned, tabs coming off the bar for no reason, blah, blah. Why was this released to the public? I get tired of paying to beta test software. It's bad enough I pay MSFT to beta test their 'enterprise ready software'. At what point did it become acceptable to treat customers like this? People depend on this software to work. If I managed my networks like this, I'd be fired flat out, point blank. This is absurd.
While an attempt to improve the interface is potentially a good thing, what rolled out in production was a broken tab interface.
A key element of the application that was a major hassle to use when the tabs acted sticky or required more than one click to switch/release the tab or it was a delayed release and the tab was off the rails.
The fix, handled the sticky tab effect it but left us with unmovable tabs and a much worse navigation tab interaction.
Not looking good.

It seems 2026.3 was rushed. There are so many problems that should have been caught in testing.
Hello everyone,
Following up on my previous message, looking back at 2026.3, the root cause is clear to us: we were too ambitious. We changed too many things in a single release, and we missed a lot of use cases we took for granted, like how people rely on tabs and the navigation pane every day. Your feedback in this thread helped us see exactly where we got it wrong.
The team has kept working on it, and 2026.3.15.0 is now available with many performance improvements and bug fixes. I’d like to invite you to give it a try. If you’d rather not touch your current installation, the portable version lets you test it on the side without any risk.
If something still doesn’t behave the way you expect, please post the details here. Precise reports like the ones in this thread are what help us fix things the fastest.

I am a paying user of RDM for a few years already. It has replaced many tools from my toolbelt, and added a lot of value!
I reported I think around 100 bugs through this forum and via private conversations, so they journey wasn't without some hiccups.
But the best thing is - RDM team fixed **all** issues I reported, and what's more - they implemented **all** my feature requests!
I am a big fan of Devolutions precisely for that very reason. I wish other companies listened to their customers that carefully.
There are still things they need to polish, but the software is great overall. A single interface to many session types, auto-typing for web, credentials (a.k.a. password manager but connected to session entries), documentation, history, custom session tools (e.g., Mikrotik), custom fields, macros, scripting, the amount of features is staggering.
Therefore I'm sorry @rdearman but I don't agree with you. This software is large for a reason. A bit slow UI, but that's being worked on.
It's a central tool for very sophisticated IT infrastructures.
A bit of patience goes a long way.
Keep the good work, RDM team! 11 out of 10!
