So RDCM is no longer being supported by Microsoft, but it was such a useful tool. I'm looking for alternatives that have the ability to group server connections and save those names so I don't have to type them in every time.
Any thoughts on a good replacement for it?

I use ASG Remote Desktop the freeware version is great, ok it's limited as you cant have more then 3 RDP session open at anyone time, but I find it a great alternative to RDCM. Licenses are pretty cheap and they also do a range of different license options also, by site, country, company so may be a great investment, especially as it's not just RDP it handles but can do SSH, VNC, Putty etc

I really liked using mRemoteNG until our parent company blocked it for some inane reason.

Even before this major vulnerability was discovered, many users found RDCMan frustrating and limited. Back when RDCMan was first released, it was embraced by IT pros and generated lots of fans. But that was many years ago. Times have changed — but RDCMan hasn’t. And arguably its biggest flaw is the lack of time-saving integrations. The best that IT pros can do with RDCMan is to use it in conjunction with external apps like TeamViewer and LogMeIn. But it has no native ability to integrate tools and centralize control.
