RDP Capabilities
The Parallels Client leverages and enhances Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) technology, enabling users to instantly connect to either Parallels RAS Farms or simple RDS infrastructures.
It’s an intuitive RDP client that makes it possible for users to work simultaneously on applications and desktops. Multiple connection settings may be stored and utilized so users can keep workspaces docked under the same application window (or undock them to work in another window).
Moreover, features not supported by the Microsoft RDP Client—such as drag and drop, multiscreen support, zoom and more—are implemented to provide a top-tier user experience.
The remote desktop for Android and iOS enables all native gestures, offering one of the best mobile experiences on the market. Touch ID and passcode capabilities are available during login to increase data security.
Parallels Client Use Cases
Client policies control which settings are available to configure on the user’s Parallels Client interface. With client policies, IT administrators can easily manage and restrict the settings available to users on the Parallels Client connection to a Parallels RAS Farm. Criteria can also be configured to distribute different policies depending on where the user is connecting from or even which device (MAC address) they are using.
Increase security access with multi-factor authentication (MFA), specifically when using RADIUS as an MFA provider. Users can choose their preferred security verification methods from a configurable list, including push notifications, phone callback, SMS and email.
Administrators can customize the one-time password (OTP) experience when using the Parallels Client. Different security verification methods can be assigned a priority level and configured to be automatically used.
Session prelaunch, initially only for Parallels Client for Windows, is now extended to other platform-specific clients, including macOS, Linux, iOS and Android. Session prelaunch can be configured to make use of Artificial intelligence (AI), which enables Parallels Client to analyze user login habits to prelaunch Parallels RAS sessions prior to the user’s manual request. This delivers a ready-to-connect virtual workspace, significantly reducing login time and dramatically improving UX.
Parallels RAS streamlines management of user identities from different organizations by supporting the Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) 2.0 authentication mechanism. With SAML, IT can provide single sign-on (SSO) capabilities without sharing the local identity database. This allows federated SSO authentication and authorization processes for users while de-coupling the identity provider and service provider for simplified and centralized access of Parallels RAS hosted resources.
Seamless navigation
Use the touch mechanic gestures you know—swipe, drag, tap to click and zoom in—with any Windows application on your smartphone. With a Lock’n’Go Magnifying Glass it’s possible for users to select the exact content that’s needed.
Secure access
Parallels Client connects client devices to Parallels RAS applications and desktops via RDP protocol and SSL encryption for a secure and reliable connection. Employees may also further secure the Parallels Client by adding Touch ID or Passcode to open the application. Parallels RAS enhances mobile device security.
Mobile printing
Through the remarkable peripheral redirection technology built into the Parallels Client, iOS and Android devices can be used to print locally. Moreover, remote desktop printing with Parallels RAS Universal Printing enables users to print directly to their local printers without any extra configurations.
Samsung DeX Support
The Parallels RAS Android Client supports Samsung DeX. Samsung mobile users can work anywhere, anytime using one device. Improve multitasking and productivity with features like drag-and-drop and multiscreen.
Client autoconfiguration
Parallels Client may be configured automatically through an invitation email from the Remote Application Server console or accessed through a web portal. Configurations within the Parallels Client can also be preconfigured for users with a client group policy.
Files and folders
Access centralized files and folders from any device, through a secure connection that doesn’t expose your assets or intellectual property. If enabled by administrators, accelerated file retrieval enables users to quickly retrieve and enumerate local files and folders when using drive redirection. It’s possible to achieve a more than 90% increase in speed and stability over poor networks compared with standard RDP.
Maximized flexibility
Parallels RAS can be accessed directly from any HTML 5 web-browser, extending the user’s freedom to work from any device, anytime, anywhere.
Bluetooth mouse and trackpad support
The Parallels Client for iOS supports the use of a Bluetooth mouse or trackpad with iPads (iPadOS 13.4 or newer), providing greater precision. Moreover, when a mouse or trackpad is detected, the cursor transforms into a native cursor depending on the content available on the screen—for example, a pointer, I-beam or arrows. The “Dumbo” mouse mode enables a virtual mouse with two buttons and a pointer that appears on the screen to navigate effectively.
Excellent mobile experience
Select text or graphics with one finger, and easily drag and drop content for a seamless interactive experience. Create custom keypad shortcuts to work even more efficiently. Using native controls, copy and paste between remote applications—or even between remote applications and device apps.
iPad Multitasking Support
Parallels Client for iPadOS supports multitasking features—such as Slide Over and Split View—so users can manage apps simultaneously, boosting productivity. For example, users can work on a Parallels RAS published resource and FaceTime at the same time.

Ratings and Reviews
Bad Import
I have used 2x which is what Parallels bought. It was a great product and always worked. I downloaded the new Parallel’s app and it saw the old client and did an import. 90% of the 20+ servers in my app have no server name. If I have to rebuild everything from scratch, why bother with an import.
Frustrating to use in touch mode, with a keyboard, or with a mouse
I am forced to use Parallels Client to connect to an EMR remotely (Windows app). The “features” (lack thereof) in this app make that very difficult.
It loses the connection to the Bluetooth keyboard (Brydge) I use on my iPad, if I switch to another app and return to Client (even if I do it right away), or if the keyboard remains unused for a short amount of time (minutes at most). I have to turn the keyboard off and back on to make it work again. It’s random, so I don’t know when I have to do that until typing just doesn’t work.
It also easily loses connection with my Bluetooth mouse, and I purchased that specifically because only 1 kind (Swiftpoint) works with Client.
That’s bad enough, but the touch mode for the mouse does not work for certain buttons or scrolling within the Windows app that is running in Client. I think it used to, before the update 2 months ago. It only works if I switch it to “Dumbo” mouse mode, but that is extremely inefficient for a touch interface (to use all of the time or to keep switching mouse modes).
I wish I had another option to connect to my EMR — this is that bad. Using a Windows app remotely on an iPad is tough enough, but Client is actually getting in the way and making it even worse.
Developer Response ,
Hello,
Thanks for your feedback. We’d love to investigate this and help to get it fixed. Could you please share more details with us at http://www.parallels.com/products/ras/support/ or at scs@parallels.com?
We are always here to help!
Thanks, Parallels Team
It stinks.
I’ve used this service since 2001 and now I can only open it on my computer. As I use my iPad and Samsung phone for several updates a day, it is beyond frustrating. When I contacted Telechart, they just sent three pages of instructions which didn’t work either.
My Samsung phone was ok, just more difficult to get into my charts until recently, now charts are gone. It would be nice to get an IN PERSON VISIT with an expert to fix this not just an email print out..
I, along with too many others, have paid way too much to have an update that is total frustration.
Have praised it many years, but not now.
«Legacy» is the download stopper every time.

Ratings and Reviews
Since the last update it has been unreliable.
Now if my Mac goes to screensaver, when I open it again, it lets me back in to the RDP session. Then the moment I type an alphanumeric character it drops me back to the Windows password screen. I put my password, it lets me in, and as soon as I type another character it locks again.
I have to compeletly logout from the remote PC, and login again to get it to work.
Also, if the session completely times out, then re-opening the hibernated session results in the remote PC getting stuck in the Welcome screen with a spinning circle.
Prior to the update it worked perfectly. I want the old one back!
Good but could improve
I use it as mainly and RDP Manager and there are a few things that could massively improve this:
1) The ability to group connections into custom groups
2) A «credential manager» so you don’t have to update every connection when you change your password.
3) A “proxy manager” as I use multiple differnect proxies for differnet connections being able to set it up one and just select it would be fantastic.
This still beats Microsoft RDP as it doesn’t allow proxy connections but if the above were met I would even pay for the product
Well Done on a fantastic product
Been using it for years
It still eclipses Microsofts RDP for Macs, and is by far the best RDP manager out there.
NLA has been working properly for a few iterations now.
RemoteFX is working properly now in this version. It was kinda hit and miss before this one with resolution sizes.
A feature request: Please bring exporting sessions to cloud so we can upload our RDP’s between client versions. I.e. if I sign in on the iPad version then I can instantly have all my sessions and saved credentials available to me (I work in enterprise and tapping in 30+ sessions gets tiresome for each new device I use). This would be a real boon to this program. But no subscriptions, or I quit. I don’t mind if it is DLC onetime but subscriptions are verboten.
Keep up the good work!
PS — As experienced by some others, my sessions have been locking up as well. Quite often the mouse cursor disappears as well which returns if I click out of the app focus somewhere. Also at times the keyboard goes whack and I am forced to log off a session. For some reason just reconnecting to the session continues the whackiness.
EDIT: Latest version has broken the preferences. I am unable to add new rdp sessions if there is currently an IP address that is already in the list. This breaks my workflow tremendously as a sysadmin. I am reverting to an older version and bailing updates. It was fine and as good as I can hopefor until cloud features arrive.
