"Great SSH Software"
What do you like best about Termius?

The sleek design of the software and ability to save client connections across devices.

What do you dislike about Termius?

Not sure if its just me but every time it gets an update it removes it from being pinned to my taskbar. Maybe there could be a serial feature like putty has so you don't have to go back and fourth between them.

What problems is Termius solving and how is that benefiting you?

I use it daily in my profession to connect to over 350 devices myself but others in my department don't use it but I believe they should as the terminus for team would allow us all to have access to the same clients if a new one is added.

"Great multi-platform SSH client"
What do you like best about Termius?

I can access all my machines in one platform. I can also share the terminal/devices themselves with others, so they can collaborate at the same time as me. The SFTP file sharing is also super useful.

What do you dislike about Termius?

Only SFTP is supported (makes sense, since this is an SSH client), but I would like to see regular FTP support as well, so I can use Termius for all my file sharing and SSH needs.

What problems is Termius solving and how is that benefiting you?

I needed to combine all my SSH machines into one platform, so I don't have to keep storing keys. Also, I wanted a way to syncronize all my SSH devices across all my devices (Computer, iPad, Phone, etc.)

"Great Software, I just don't like the billing options."
What do you like best about Termius?

The software is among the best applications you can use for what it offers. Love the simplicity and design, and it's also quite stable.

What do you dislike about Termius?

The single issue I have is how it's billed (as a service essentially). I don't understand that. There are no options to just pay for the software a single time, or I would have supported the project a long time ago with a paid license.

What problems is Termius solving and how is that benefiting you?

Termius provides me with an easy-to-use SSH terminal to manage website functions for the servers I administrate. It's this or what, Putty? You win by default, in a sense.

I cannot customize themes and there is no nice dark theme included.

What problems is Termius solving and how is that benefiting you?

Easy access to remote machines as well as local terminal in one app.

"A very nice, souped-up alternative to Terminal"
What do you like best about Termius?

My favorite feature by far is the ability to save SSH passwords, allowing for one-click logins, much like an FTP client.

What do you dislike about Termius?

There are some interface issues that bug me, particularly the way the scroll bar is set up, which make it more difficult than it should be to navigate up and down the pane.

What problems is Termius solving and how is that benefiting you?

Since accessing the server via SSH is something we do multiple times daily, and since those logins routine time out, Terminus is ultimately saving us time and precious keystrokes by turning SSH logins into a one-click, one-app process. These things matter in this line of work.

"Great app, just a few minor criticisms"
What do you like best about Termius?

Being able to open SSH sessions at the click of a button is great! I love that it stores my password and syncs it across all my servers and on all my devices. Also having SFTP built like in is great for when you just want to move a file and don't want to mess around with the command line tool for it.

What do you dislike about Termius?

I wish it wasn't so expensive and I'm not a huge fan of the built in color schemes. I'm a student, so I can get it free through GitHub Campus, but I probably wouldn't have used it otherwise. The purple menu theme makes my eyes bleed, I really wish they just had a simple black dark theme. Also, for terminals, I don't get why I have to pick from a predefined set of themes, and can't design my own. This has been a standard feature in most terminals for a while, and I'm suprised they haven't implemented it here yet.

What problems is Termius solving and how is that benefiting you?

It just makes signing into remote servers so much faster

"Great tool for SSH access"
What do you like best about Termius?

I like how you can share SSH authentication information between devices. I also like the built-in SFTP client. The sharing feature is also quite helpful when you need outside support.

What do you dislike about Termius?

I don't like how there isn't a normal FTP client. There is only SFTP. Also, a web client would be very nice, even if it is only for paid customers. This would allow me to access my servers from anywhere.

What problems is Termius solving and how is that benefiting you?

We use Termius to connect to all our servers in an easy-to-manage platform. This has made collaboration and troubleshooting much easier, as we can use the "share" feature, and don't have to worry about saving keys.

"Satisfied but not overwhelmed"
What do you like best about Termius?

I like the way you can group your sites/nodes; that's very convenient

What do you dislike about Termius?

What I miss the most is the ability to have parallel Termius processes running simultaneously, and one more thing is to be able to split the view.

What problems is Termius solving and how is that benefiting you?

to be able to reach all nodes from one central app

"Simple, elegant, and lightweight and tool."
What do you like best about Termius?

Love the colors and layout, its responsiveness, and its cross-platform compatibility. Big fan of dark mode on iOS. Has all the features I expect from in an SSH client Overall, Termius is a super elegant tool that meets all my needs. It's also a great way to manage SSH keys.

What do you dislike about Termius?

A few of the navigation features could be simplified. The carrot menu at the top would be labeled better as a settings icon in my opinion. After long stretches of not using the program I sometimes forget how to access that menu, which contains your keychain and profile options.

What problems is Termius solving and how is that benefiting you?

Allows me to manage our VPS-hosted Wordpress site at a root level as well control my server back home. It's also become my primary SSH key manager.

"nice UI but missing some functionalities"
What do you like best about Termius?

the modern nice UI, no limit to the number of connections, the possibility to sync the hosts and share them with collegues

What do you dislike about Termius?

not enough split screen possibilities, I would like to be able to run a command on multiple shells at a time, I would like a button to easily collapse the left panel, I would like to be able to assign colors to the tabs based on the group or label

"The Fun SSH Client - Terminus"
What do you like best about Termius?

Termius gives you cross platform support - you can have the application installed on any of your devices be it Mac, iOS, Android, Windows or Linux. It works anywhere and is free .Once you have the account with termius and save your profile and hosts under it, you can access them on all your devices. It integrates with tools like GitBash, PowerShell, Command Line, etc . On top of it, provides a custom rich theme preferences panel which allows me to increase and change the font sizes, change the feel and colour the app according to your will. It allows me to customise my shortcuts for new tab , close tab as well. Being a left-hander this helps a lot, as most of the applications have shortcuts more easy to use for right-handers. Termius just serves the purpose for me in this case. It allows me to group my similar hosts under one group, which makes the life much easier i don't need to remember the set of IPs for an environment, I have just saved them under the name of testing environment once and use them .

What do you dislike about Termius?

The amount of features packed with free version of Termius are very less and basic , it misses down the advanced features coming with paid one like - Autocompletion, SFTP, agent forwarding, etc. The basic version could have been bootstrapped more and could have included some of these features in addition to SSH, Telnet and Port Forwarding.

What problems is Termius solving and how is that benefiting you?

I use Termius to connect to my testing environments for debugging purposes. It has helps me in grouping by hosts together and allows me to have a common setting for the group and specific setting for a host in the group. I don't need to remember the IP Addresses anymore. I connect with them in a click. It has improved the readability because of custom font sizes and colour themes. And the best part is it allows me to configure the setting for how long i want to keep the SSH session alive, so even if i forget to use the session my connection is not lost.
