iPad apps for a network manager

[techguy1991]

Hi guys, I am a network manager with a work iPad. I am currently using it to check our helpdesk, emails & spiceworks, I mainly use it when I am offsite but want to use it more on site. Is there any apps that you can recommend for daily ICT technical support? Apart from spiceworks app and of course the edugeek app that I'm using now

 

Cheers guys,

The microsoft RDP app (android link, but is also available for iOS): https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.microsoft.rdc.android&hl=en_GB

Desktop Connect works better than MS Remote Desktop. It supports both RDP and VNC and just has more functionality. I use it all of the time.

 

iVMScontrol works great for managing vSphere environments on an iPad and works better than the iPad client from VMware.

 

Prompt is a great tool for connecting via SSH to servers.

 

Ookla Speedtest is a great little app for testing WAN network speeds.

 

Fing is great for discovering devices on a WiFi network.

Ruckus do an Admin tool which is useful for stats if you have Ruckus.

Fing is good for port scanning
