Software update cycle is much more often and recent, documentation is current and extensive, it's supported on multiple OS platforms, and the community support is far superior than with mRemoteNG. I would highly recommend checking it out.

Works quite well for SSH and Telnet but no RDP. Also it's not really open source as what's provided is very out of date and incomplete.
