Mocha RDP 2.9

Until we all shift to using PowerShell for managing Windows servers, we’re going to need a remote desktop client. Mocha RDP stands out with support for iPad multitouch gestures that allow you to shrink or expand the Windows desktop on the fly. While a bit risky, this RDP client can also save both username and password if your group policies allow. If only the app itself were password protected, I might be willing to save more user information. I only recently discovered that Mocha RDP has a wake-on-LAN option in its configuration for each server. Until then, I used the Depicus Wake On LAN app.

Price: $5.99 Developer: MochaSoft Compatibility: iPhone and iPad; iOS 3.0 or later
