What do you like best about Tabby.sh?

I have used this software a long time, and this is very good looking and give very minimal experience for using this; I truly like its theme, which provides a nice look of our terminal, and I think if you are not very familiar with the terminal, then its is an excellent option for the user of windows because windows not have proper terminal I use this in ubuntu and also in windows, it is incredible to experience about it, for use multiple tabs at once is still confusing is terminal where tabby is given you more helpful view in just one window, so you do not need to go again and again at different tab Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Tabby.sh?

i think there are not any bad thing about so i can say that this is very perfect software that give you very good expiriunce for using terminal in windows and definetly you can go for this Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Tabby.sh solving and how is that benefiting you?

The majority time, I have bad experiences using a terminal in windows, but it gives an excellent chance to make your work good, and I think it is a problem solver for using a terminal or command line tool Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Tabby.sh?

A colleague referred tabby.sh to me, and I'm using it on my work Mac. I like the most that it saves my sessions and my windows/tabs. I often have to connect to the same VMs/server, so it's a great time saver for me to have all sessions (in the same setup open just by opening the terminal). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Tabby.sh?

I haven't found anything I really dislike, but I haven't shopped around for alternatives either. So far, I'm a happy user of tabby.sh. Maybe a suggestion for improvement would be to have something like "Tip of the Day". I still find a number of new features that I didn't know were there before (e.g., I recently found the color highlighting of the tabs). I know there are readme files to list new features in the updates and so on, but maybe a tip-of-the-day would remind me more often of the powerfulness of the terminal. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Tabby.sh solving and how is that benefiting you?

I need to connect to various servers and virtual machines on a regular base. This tool allows me to open these connections and color code the various connections, so I know what I'm doing on what server (which are often called the same since they are clones of each other). This way, I can make comparisons between the machines or repeat steps on all the machines without mixing up which one is which. I can also quickly open the sessions with just basically one click.

What do you dislike about Tabby.sh?

Even if it's easy to use, sometimes it has connectivity issues, and connections are automatically disconnected after few minutes. So, we have to reconnect everytime, but it only happens sometimes, otherwise it's good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Tabby.sh solving and how is that benefiting you?

We use Tabby as our SSH client, and connect with different shells. All of our teammates are started using Tabby, and it's good so far. Also, it's has many other options that other competitors don't have Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Tabby.sh?

It is far better than windows command prompt and powershell. It gives you look and feel of Unix terminals. It is made by use of typescript so easy to do modification/customization if you know the source files. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Tabby.sh?

it is using Electron. So, it is resource hog. They mentioned on GitHub that Alacrity or Kitty or other Unix terminal are lightweight comprare to this. So, I will not prefer that on Linux Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Tabby.sh solving and how is that benefiting you?

Windows powershell or command prompt are still like 20's era. They haven't improved that much with time. Most of developers are now working with servers. So, they need to do ssh, they have to deal with docker and many more thing. Tabby have all those thing either inbuilt or as plugin. So, it is saving your time of initial configuration.
