A while back I read a thread where people were talking about different ssh clients, for the life of my I cannot find that thread so I figured I would start a new thread for everyone to list the clients that they are familiar with.

I will start off..

SecureCRT is great for it's tabbing features and professional ongoing development.

I was thinking about buying SecureCRT but I use 5 computers on a regular basis and I don't want to buy 5 licenses.

Then stick with PuTTY :)

I'm not sure if this still works with the latest release of version 5. I did do this with 4.1 a long time ago though :)

I really like using Putty. Haven't looked for much else since it is able to keep up with all my needs. Simple to use, nice small program.

Thanks to those who mentioned SecureCRT - it looks like a *really* nice SSH client application, will look at buying it though the price seems a bit steep. It really does look great though. I'm gonna look around for other alternatives still, but this has opened my eyes a bit that there are more feature-full SSH clients :)

why would you need anything more than putty for direct ssh? :S

Well look at the small handy features that SecureCRT has! For one thing, the tabbed connections. This aint just normal tabs but tabs with special colour coding to inform of the connection state ;) Seems a bit stupid huh? That's just one small feature that makes it more appealing to me :)

MidpSSH for BlackBerry is a very nice SSH client.

+1

Very convenient when I cant' get the laptop out and have to find WiFi.

Turning out to be a real life-saver.

I've been using putty for years. I don't know where I'd be without it.

Using the terminal on a Linux GUI gives tabs and all the functionality of most SSH clients too.

I have always used Putty because its plain simple and gets the job done. Will have to try some of these other clients ;)

I have been using securecrt for the last couple of days and I must say it's very nice to have 10 tabs rather than 10 copies of putty open.
