The poll options are just a few ssh clients I am familiar with (sorry for my ignorance). I use PuTTY primarily as it's approved by my employer and I have been using it for long time. Initially I expected that PuTTY would be the most favorite one. Now I can see that people use variety of other products as well. Thanks for the post!

I use putty for ssh. The more advanced features(single command to multiple servers, etc) I've mostly been able to accomplish in the shell itself.

ZOC Terminal with black background and grey text (Consolas 10.5pt) on a widescreen monitor. Beautiful!

Putty - supports Kerberos/GSSAPI which is required in my workplace, as preferred way of authentication.
And over the years i created a habit using it.

I use Xshell

I found it fully featured and convenient.

Just tried xshell. It works fine!

I'm happy with PuTTY though (partly because my company does not permit anything else other than PuTTY and Tera Term) Smilie
