The following Remote Desktop clients support Windows Virtual Desktop: Windows Desktop; Web; macOS; iOS; Android; Microsoft Store Client; SEE: Software as a Service (SaaS): A cheat sheet (free PDF.
One advantage of using Remote Desktop rather than 3rd party remote admin tools is that components are updated automatically with the latest security fixes in the standard Microsoft patch cycle. Make sure you are running the latest versions of both the client and server software by enabling and auditing automatic Microsoft Updates.

TheRemote Desktop Services

Microsoft’s Remote Desktop Servicesare widely used by companies to let users use applications inside a serverfarm.

Typically the reasons to use RemoteDesktop are:

Standardized environment and configuration
Easy maintenance during application version upgrades
Lower resource usage on the clients
Better bandwidth usage in case of a slow connection orhigh latency
Seamless integration with the option to push individualapplications to the clients

That is the Remote Desktop Client. All Windows OSes have that. Just not all Windows OS editions have the HOST/SERVER part - the part that allows one, with the remote system unattended, to remotely connect like you were sitting in front of it. In Remote Desktop Connection, type the name of the PC you want to connect to (from Step 1), and then select Connect. On your Windows, Android, or iOS device: Open the Remote Desktop app (available for free from Microsoft Store, Google Play, and the Mac App Store), and add the name of the PC that you want to connect to (from Step 1).

The connection to a Remote Desktopfarm uses a proprietary Microsoft protocol (RDP).

All the Windows clients by default havethe RDP client pre-installed, but on non-Windows clients some troubles canarise.

Mac OS and Android clients can use aMicrosoft App.

For Linux clients, some free RDPclients exist, but almost all of them have trouble now during the initial connection due to the RDPprotocol security requirements implemented by Microsoft due to the CredSSP vulnerability.

RemoteDesktop Web Client: The Unknown Feature

Since the release of Windows Server2016, Microsoft has developed a Remote Desktop Services add-on: the RemoteDesktop Web Client.

This add-on can be installed over anexisting Remote Desktop farm and lets users access the organization’s RemoteDesktop infrastructure through a compatible web browser. They can then interactwith remote apps or desktops just like they would with a local PC, no matterwhere they are. Once you’ve set up your Remote Desktop web client, all that yourusers need to get started is the URL to access the client, their credentials,and a supported web browser.

No more RDP clients are required:just a modern HTML5 web browser.

Of course there are still somelimitations, but in most contexts they have a low impact:

Printing is redirected to a Remote Desktop VirtualPrinter which generates a PDF file.
This PDF file can then be downloaded and printed locally on the client.
The web client currently only supports copying andpasting of text.

In any event, the web client is justan add-on, and doesn’t replace the old connection model.

TheWeb Client User Interface

This is an example of the login pageon Mac OSX Catalina with the Safari web browser:

After the login, this is an exampleof a published Remote Desktop:

Howto Monitor It?

As with the old-style Remote Desktop,the Web Client should also be monitored client-side with an Alyvix agent.

This is the only way to simulate useroperations: the Alyvix product is designed for this job. It can repeat thesetasks continuously, building up metrics based on common user RDS tasks.

For further details, see my previous Blogs about RDP monitoring.

My name is Alessandro and I joined Würth-Phoenix early in 2013. I have over 20 years of experience in the IT sector: For a long time I've worked for a big Italian bank in a very complex environment, managing the software provisioning for all the branch offices. Then I've worked as a system administrator for an international IT provider supporting several big companies in their infrastructures, providing high availability solutions and disaster recovery implementations. I've joined the VMware virtual infrastructure in early stage, since version 2: it was one of the first productive Server Farms in Italy. I always like to study and compare different technologies: I work with Linux, MAC OSX, Windows and VMWare. Since I joined Würth Phoenix, I could also expand my experience on Firewalls, Storage Area Networks, Local Area Networks, designing and implementing complete solutions for our customers. Primarily, I'm a system administrator and solution designer, certified as VMware VCP6 DCV, Microsoft MCP for Windows Server, Hyper-V and System Center Virtual Machine Manager, SQL Server, SharePoint. Besides computers, I also like photography, sport and trekking in the mountains.
